A piece of furniture or domestic appliance includes a body, a drawer element slidably arranged in the body and having two side walls. Respective pull-out guides are arranged between the side panels and side walls of the body. Each of the pull-out guides has at least one body rail fastenable to a side wall of the body and one running rail fastenable to the side panel. The piece of furniture or domestic appliance also includes at least one functional unit, which is coupled to one of the pull-out guides. A functional unit is detachably arranged in at least one of the side walls at distance from the pull-out guide, which functional unit, in a predefined position of the drawer element relative to the body, is operatively connected to a counter-element stationarily mounted on the body or on the body rail.

The guiding apparatus includes a first member having a sliding groove formed along a longitudinal direction; and a plurality of second members which are slidably assembled along the sliding groove so as to hold the first member in between, wherein the first member is formed with a first mounting hole on a bottom surface of the sliding groove, and the second member is formed with a second mounting hole on a surface opposed to the bottom surface, and wherein a stopper member is mounted to each of the first mounting hole and the second mounting hole, each of the stopper member having an insertion part which is to be inserted into each of the first mounting hole and the second mounting hole and is formed to be shorter in a length in an axial direction than a depth of the first mounting hole and the second mounting hole.

A furniture damper includes a damper housing, a fluid chamber therein, a damping fluid therein, and a piston displaceably supported within the fluid chamber. A switch element can be moved, when a damping stroke is below a predetermined pressure threshold value, into a first position in which the channel of the piston is at least partially covered by the switch element and a first flow rate of the damping fluid streams through a channel of the piston. The switch element is also configured to be moved, when the damping stroke is above the predetermined pressure threshold value, from the first position into a second position in which the channel of the piston is at least partially unblocked by the switch element and a second flow rate of the damping fluid streams through the channel of the piston, with the second fluid rate being larger than the first fluid rate.
