What It Is
The Space Twin is a double-drawer pull-out system from Blum that fits into a standard base cabinet. You get two drawers at different heights - one medium height and one compact - both finished in carbon black matt. The system includes soft-close runners and comes fully assembled, ready for installation into your 300mm wide cabinet.
Where It Fits
This works well in narrow base units where you need to maximise storage without sacrificing accessibility. It suits modern kitchens with dark or neutral colour schemes, and works particularly well in galley kitchens or where cabinet space is at a premium. The 300mm width makes it ideal for spaces between appliances or in corner arrangements.
How It Works
Both drawers pull out fully on 40kg capacity runners, giving you complete access to everything stored inside. The soft-close mechanism means they glide back quietly and smoothly. Non-slip matting in both drawers prevents items from sliding around as you open and close them. The different heights let you separate items by size or frequency of use.
Why It Matters
Rather than reaching into the back of a deep cupboard, you can see and access everything at once. The two-drawer format means you can keep frequently used items in the upper drawer while storing heavier or less-used items below. With 40kg capacity across both drawers, you can store substantial amounts without worrying about the mechanism failing.
Design Consideration
The carbon black matt finish integrates well with contemporary handle-less designs and darker kitchen schemes. However, if your kitchen has lighter cabinetry or traditional styling, this might feel too stark. The fixed 300mm width also means it only works with specific cabinet dimensions, so your kitchen layout needs to accommodate this sizing.
Build Quality
Blum's Legrabox system uses steel sides with their proven soft-close technology. The 40kg load capacity per drawer is generous for this size of unit. The carbon black matt coating is durable and designed to withstand daily kitchen use. Blum backs this with a lifetime guarantee on the mechanism.
Closing Guidance
Consider whether the narrow width works with your storage needs and whether the carbon black finish suits your kitchen's aesthetic. If you have limited base cabinet space and prefer everything visible and accessible, this system makes sense. For kitchens with lighter colour schemes, you might want to explore other finish options.
