This is Blum's LEGRABOX drawer system in their Free range, finished in walnut with stainless steel accents. The 177mm height makes it a substantial drawer box, designed for storing larger items or creating deep storage compartments in your kitchen.

Where It Fits

These drawers work well in base units where you need significant storage depth. The walnut finish brings warmth to contemporary kitchens, while the stainless steel details complement modern appliances and handles. The C height designation means these are deeper than standard drawers, making them suitable for storing tall bottles, large serving dishes, or bulky kitchen equipment.

How It Works

The LEGRABOX system uses a cabinet-mounted runner that sits within the cabinet frame rather than on the drawer sides. This creates the remarkably slim 12.8mm drawer walls while maintaining full structural strength. The drawer sides remain completely straight inside and out, maximising your usable storage space.

Why It Matters

Those slim walls mean you gain storage capacity in every drawer. In a standard 600mm wide cabinet, you're looking at roughly 25mm more internal width compared to traditional drawer systems. When you're storing wide trays, chopping boards, or organising cutlery, that extra space makes a practical difference to how much fits comfortably.

Design Consideration

The walnut finish works particularly well in kitchens where you want to introduce natural wood tones without overwhelming the space. However, walnut can appear heavy in smaller kitchens or those with limited natural light. The stainless steel details help lighten the overall appearance, but consider how this combination will work with your chosen door finishes and worktop materials.

Build Quality

The system handles significant weight, with load capacities of 40kg or 70kg depending on your width requirements. Blum recommends the 70kg version for cabinets wider than 600mm. The motion quality is immediately apparent when you use the drawer - there's a controlled, dampened feel that speaks to the precision of the mechanism.

Options

You can specify these with Blumotion soft-close, which ensures drawers close gently regardless of how firmly you push them. There's also a push-to-open version that combines touch opening with soft-close, useful where you want handleless drawer fronts. The system comes as components for assembly or as fully assembled bespoke units made to your exact dimensions.

Think about how the walnut finish will age in your kitchen environment and whether the deeper 177mm height suits your intended storage. These drawers perform exceptionally well functionally, but the finish choice should complement your overall kitchen design rather than compete with it.
