This is Blum's Legrabox drawer system in the Free C height format, standing 177mm tall with internal clear glass sides and a silk white matt finish. The Legrabox represents Blum's approach to creating drawers that balance clean aesthetics with serious mechanical performance.

Where It Fits

At 177mm high, this sits in the middle range of drawer heights, making it suitable for storing everything from cutlery and utensils to small appliances and food storage. The clear glass sides make it particularly effective in contemporary kitchens where you want to see contents at a glance, or in designs where the internal organisation becomes part of the visual language.

How It Works

The drawer sides are remarkably slim at just 12.8mm thick, achieved through Blum's engineered approach to the runner system. Despite this slender profile, the mechanism handles substantial loads, with options for 40kg or 70kg weight capacity depending on your cabinet width. The runners integrate directly into the drawer profile rather than sitting as separate components.

Why It Matters

The slim sides mean more internal space for the same external cabinet dimension. The clear glass lets you see what you've stored without opening the drawer, which proves useful for frequently accessed items. The substantial load capacity means you can store heavy items like small appliances or full sets of crockery without the drawer struggling or the mechanism wearing prematurely.

Design Consideration

The glass sides work well when your storage is naturally organised, but they'll expose any chaos inside. If you prefer concealed storage or tend toward a more relaxed approach to internal organisation, you might find the transparency less forgiving than solid sides. The silk white finish coordinates with most contemporary colour schemes but may show fingerprints more readily than darker finishes.

Build Quality

Blum's reputation rests on mechanism precision, and the Legrabox demonstrates this through its runner integration and load capacity. The glass panels are properly supported within the framework, and the silk white finish is applied to resist daily kitchen wear. The 3D designation means each drawer arrives fully assembled to your exact measurements rather than requiring on-site construction.

Options

You can specify soft-close function through Blumotion, or combine this with push-to-open operation for handleless designs. The 70kg capacity version is recommended for cabinets wider than 600mm. The system accommodates various widths and depths to match your specific cabinet dimensions.

Consider whether the visual transparency aligns with how you use your kitchen storage, and whether the additional internal space gained from the slim sides justifies the investment over simpler drawer systems.
