A drawer apparatus comprises a base member 2 having a base wall 3a and two side walls 3b that extend in the same direction from opposed ends of the base wall 3a, a drawer 4 and a guide structure (10, Figure 2) by which the drawer 4 is guided to move in the base member 2 between an open position and a storage position. A coil spring 6 that is compressed between the base wall 3a of the base member 2 and a rear wall 5a of the drawer 4 to bias the drawer 4 toward the open position, where the coil spring 6 includes continuous circular elements of which diameters gradually change in accordance with a positional change in an axial direction. Preferably the conical spring 6 takes a flat circular shape and can be flatly received in a space between the rear wall 3a and the drawer 4 when compressed in an axial direction (Figure 7). Optionally a cup holder 17 may be provided and be drawable from and retractable into the drawer.
