About the VW Polo 2021 boot
Boxes go into the Polo over a small step: the floor sits only 3⅛″ below the loading sill. Above that sill you get 24″ of clear height and 36¼″ of width at the tailgate opening, with 27⅛″ of height inside from the floor. The floor is 40⅛″ wide at its narrowest. Length is the catch, though: behind the rear seats you get just 26″, which suits one or two small boxes, and folding them adds 28⅜″ for 54⅜″, room for a long flat pack. Empty the boot before you shop, so the whole floor is free for the boxes.
About the LINDÅKRA Sleeper sofa, Vissle light gray-green package
With the LINDÅKRA sleeper sofa, the weight is the hard part. The bigger of its two boxes measures 54¾″ × 32¾″ × 17¾″ and weighs 99 lb 7 oz. The second, 33½″ × 27¼″ × 17¾″, adds 47 lb 13 oz, taking the total to 147 lb 4 oz. Laid on its widest face, the big box needs 54¾″ of boot floor, 32¾″ of width and 17¾″ of height. It is a bulky shape with no easy place to hold. Lift it with two people and keep it low and close: held at arm's length, 99 lb 7 oz feels far heavier.
