Every now and again we hear an interesting SpaceMate story. This one certainly is!
After taking delivery of her SpaceMate back in 2025, Diana recently contacted us to say that it had been making a horrible noise when opening and closing. She wondered if this was normal.
Absolutely not!
True to our no-quibble warranty, we immediately sent her a brand-new replacement and arranged to collect the original once the new one had safely arrived and Diana was happy.
The returned drawer arrived a week ago and remained boxed while we were busy with other things. But when we finally got around to opening it, we were rather surprised to discover the cause of the problem: the roller wheels had never been fitted! 🤭
The SpaceMate is designed to achieve that satisfying “VW Clunk” when closing. To achieve this, every drawer is assembled at the factory using precision jigs, giving it a carefully controlled ride height from front to back, just 2 mm above the slam latch.
To accommodate the varying loads (and occasional overloads 🤭) we all throw into the boots of our Californias, we fit rubber load-bearing wheels beneath the drawer. These maintain the correct ride height regardless of how much weight is being carried.
Maybe the phone rang. Maybe the daily courier arrived. Whatever the distraction, somehow these crucial little wheels were missed for the first time, and the SpaceMate somehow escaped our factory without meeting the quality standards we’re known for. Rare - but it can happen - but it's how we respond that counts.
A Chance to Grab a Bargain!
We’ve now fitted the missing wheels, thoroughly checked the mechanism and restored the drawer to full working order. It now glides and clunks exactly as a SpaceMate should!
With one wonderful previous owner and a few witness marks from 18 months of use, this factory-repaired T6 Ocean SpaceMate is ready for a new Cali and many more adventures. 🚐
Rather than let a perfectly good SpaceMate go to waste, we’re offering it at a reduced price, complete with our usual no-quibble warranty.
One careful owner, a few missing load wheels and hopefully two happy endings! 🤭
