A POPULAR garden outlet is undercutting the Swedish behemoth, IKEA, by nearly a grand with their elegant dupe of some outside furniture.
Their four-piece garden set looks almost identical to the Swedish behemoth's version, but rather than costing £1111, you can grab the whole set for just £240.

Whilst IKEA has a reputation as one of the most budget-friendly retailers for furniture, which doesn't break the bank, HABITAT is beating the big boys at their own game.
Both sets include a two-person sofa, two chairs, and a circular white table.
The set is made from metal and fabric and weighs a lighter weight of 36kg.
The seats from both sets are adorned with four plush cushions and have a flexible fabric support for some added spring.
The only visible difference is purely a matter of taste.
In the Habitat Tallak 4 Seater Metal Garden Sofa set, the cream offering has black bars and a noire table, whereas the Ikea set is completely cream.
Even for the beige lovers out there, an £870 discount might make the swap worth the save.
IKEA's table is just 4cm wider than Habitat's, at 74cm to 70cm, but Habitat's table and chairs are taller at 200cm tall to IKEA's 170cm tall- perfect for those blessed with long legs.
If you splurge an extra £60 at Habitat, bringing your total to £300, you can get £50 off with the code Garden at the checkout.

The only difference with Habitat's cheaper offering is the monochrome colour scheme and a slightly different style of table

One buyer said that the sofas are the "most comfortable seating I've ever sat on- the cushions are so fluffy and the size is really generous, so you can properly lounge about.
Another said: "Absolute bargain, looks well and feels sturdy at a cheap price.
"I've had so many compliments already saying it looks really expensive when in reality it was so cheap for what it is.
"Such a good price... I would highly recommend it!"
They even added that although it is advised to pop the cushions away during the winter months, they leave the set out all year round as it is so solid.
