Arrangement for connecting a drawer frame (12) formed by a metal hallow chamber profile to the facing lateral edge of the associated plate-shaped drawer bottom (10), in which at least in part-regions of its lower end region opposite the end face of the edge of the drawer bottom (10) the drawer frame (12) has in each case a strip-shaped vertical contact web (26) for the lateral end face of the drawer bottom (10), and a supporting leg (28) which engages under the drawer bottom in the proper connection position is bent away from the lower end of the contact web. The supporting leg has integrally projecting from it fixing claws (32) which are pointed or sharpened at their free ends, project over the support surface of the supporting leg (28) and can be pressed into the material of a drawer bottom which is to be fixed. Each supporting leg (28) has at least one elongate punched-out slot (30) which is closed all round in its region between the strip-shaped contact web (26) and its free edge. The fixing claws (32) are attached integrally to one of the edges of the punched-out slot (30) and are extensions formed out of the material of the supporting leg (28) itself which are bent round substantially at right angles in the direction of the drawer bottom (10).
