1. An apparatus for enabling a drawer to be pulled out in a longitudinal direction, said apparatus comprising: a drawer pull-out guide including a rail and a holding portion, said rail having a front end, and said holding portion of said drawer pull-out guide being arranged at said front end of said rail; and a coupling apparatus for releasably coupling the drawer to said rail, said coupling apparatus including a holding portion, said holding portion of said coupling apparatus including a region formed by a yielding material portion, and said yielding material portion being configured to engage said holding portion of said drawer pull-out guide arranged at said front end of said rail so as to produce a releasable connection, a latching portion configured to releasably couple the drawer with said rail of said drawer pull-out guide, and a release portion movable relative to said latching portion so that said latching portion is capable of being released from said rail of said drawer pull-out guide, wherein said yielding material portion is configured to yield so that longitudinal play of the drawer in relation to said rail is compensated, wherein said yielding material portion abuts said holding portion of said drawer pull-out guide, when said rail is coupled to the drawer, wherein said latching portion is latchable with an edge or with an abutment surface of said drawer pull-out guide, and said edge or said abutment surface for engagement with the latching portion is spaced from said front end of said rail and from said yielding material portion; and wherein said yielding portion has a first side, a second side, a third side and a fourth side, and when viewed from below, said holding portion of said coupling apparatus completely covers said first and second sides, partially covers said third side, and completely exposes said fourth side.
