A sheet-feeding cassette includes: a first tray having a first wall section and a sheet-urging plate; and a second tray having a second wall section, the second tray being coupled to the first tray in a movable manner whereby an interval between the first wall section and the second wall section is changeable. A wall surface of the second wall section, which comes into contact with the sheet, comes to a position upstream of an upstream end portion of the first tray main body. A downstream end portion of the second tray in the sheet-feeding direction comes to a position downstream of an upstream end portion of the sheet-urging plate in the sheet-feeding direction.
