Will MARKUS Office chair, Vissle dark grey, Medium fit in a Skoda Octavia 2013?

The Octavia gives you one of the longer boots in its class. Seats up the floor runs 111 cm, with a tall 84 cm opening and 93 cm of width to pass boxes through. The narrow point is 101 cm, so wide cartons rarely catch. Fold the rear bench and the floor reaches 187 cm, a gain of 76 cm, which swallows most long flat-pack boxes. The one thing to note is the sill: 71 cm off the ground with a 20 cm drop down to the floor inside. That deep well holds loads steady, so push long boxes to the front.

MARKUS ships as a single box of 98 cm × 59 cm × 23 cm: short by flat-pack standards but deep, closer to a stout crate than the usual thin slab. At 22.36 kg it is a one-person carry if you keep it close to your body, though the depth makes it awkward to hug through a doorway. Nearly any car takes a box like this with one rear seat folded, and bigger boots manage it without folding anything, which makes this one of the simpler IKEA collections you will do. Slide it in flat on its 59 cm side rather than upright, and load it last: a 23 cm thick box blocks more of the aperture than you expect.
