About the VW Golf Variant 2025 boot
The loading sill of the VW Golf Variant 2025 boot is 24″ high, and the floor sits just 4⅜″ below it. The opening is 39⅜″ wide and clears 26⅜″ above the sill, while the boot is 30¾″ tall from its floor. The floor is the generous part: 42⅞″ long with the rear seats up and 73⅝″ with them folded. That leaves room for a row of smaller boxes. A tall box goes in upright only if it is under 26⅜″. To lay a box longer than 42⅞″ flat and lengthways, fold the seats before you start loading.
About the FRIHETEN Sleeper sofa, Skiftebo dark gray package
Two long, heavy boxes make up this FRIHETEN sleeper sofa, both with the same 81¼″ × 36″ footprint. One is 14½″ deep and weighs 123 lb 7 oz; the other is 8¼″ deep at 102 lb 8 oz. Together that is 225 lb 15 oz, and neither box is a one-person lift. Each box needs 81¼″ of boot floor in a straight line, and 36″ across. Put a person at each end, hands under the base, and lift together on a count, so neither end drops while the other is still rising.
