"If I was able to put it together, and being an 80 year old female, it must be a doddle for a younger person."
Scots have been enjoying some much-needed sun lately, as temperatures soared last week. In fact, the mercury reached a peak of 24.4C in Aboyne in Aberdeenshire last Wednesday, April 30, on the hottest day of the year so far.
It's safe to say that summer is officially on the way, and with it comes the urge to revamp garden furniture. Shoppers browsing a new patio furniture set need look no further than a generously discounted four-piece suite on Amazon.
The online retailer's Bigzzia Rattan Garden Furniture Set is currently on an offer of 37 per cent off, with its price tag slashed from a steep £179.99 to much more affordable £113.04. The black four-piece patio set includes a stylish wicker sofa, two armchairs, and a table.
This Rattan Garden Furniture Set can be used both indoors and outdoors, and its classic rattan weave texture blends perfectly with most styles of home.
The design of this rattan furniture "blends country chic and modern minimalism", according to Amazon, to add an elegant touch to the garden.
The table top is made of high-quality strong glass, made to last well on rainier or windier days - which of course are common in Scotland.
Its table and chairs come complete with water-proof cushions, which are also perfect for resisting temperamental Scottish weather or drink spillages.
But those in the market for alternatives to Amazon's set may be intrigued by Argos' Home Four Seater Rattan Effect Garden Sofa Set for a pricier £320.
While more expensive, this four-seater sofa boasts a classy look and includes back cushions, which the Amazon option is lacking. However, this product is lacking the chairs and table offered by Amazon's four-piece set.
Shoppers after a more budget-friendly option may opt for the Home Cento 2 Seater Rattan Effect Garden Bistro Set, also from Argos. While this set only includes two chairs and a small table, it's cheaper than either other option at just £99.
But it can't be doubted that customers are loving the four-piece Amazon option, as it boasts a strong 4.4 out of five-star rating.
One happy customer said: "Very sturdy, easy to move, may need two to put together but did manage by myself with a drill as it's all put together with an allen key.
"Alignment is good. No missing parts. Looks good put together and fits where it needs to. Great value for money."
Another pleased shopper said: "Great wee set. Sofa nice and big. Two chairs are larger than "normal" chairs.Cushion a bit thin but like most other sets. Fab buy for the price. I bought back cushions and it's gorgeous.
"Built it myself in about 50 mins. It does say 2 people but it can be done easily with one. Alan key wears out towards the end but for the money worth buying."
But other shoppers weren't so pleased, with one describing the set as "awful to put together". Another was unimpressed with the set's quality, saying: "It is cheap and I suppose I got what I paid for."
But others were left impressed with the product, as another positive review said: "Really pleased with this set of garden furniture. If I was able to put it together, and being an 80 year old female, it must be a doddle for a younger person."
