Dunelm reduces 'chic' Scandinavian £90 side table to £22 in 75% deal
"Beautiful table nice and compact, lovely wood. Great price. Delighted with it" If you're into Scandinavian interior design, you'll be excited to hear that you can grab a 'brilliant' wooden side table at a low price. Thanks to Dunelm's latest clearance sale, you can snag this 'chic' and 'elegant' piece of furniture for 75% off. The Effy Side Table from the homeware store, showcasing a 'natural wood grain', has been reduced from £90 to just £22.25. With its natural wood effect foil, Dunelm describes it as a nod to "organic elegance and simplicity." Explaining more, it says: "Its sleek tabletop seamlessly complements contemporary interiors, providing a stylish surface for your essentials. Complete the look by pairing it with the matching Effy coffee table, and enjoy a cohesive, elegant set that enhances your home decor." Scandinavian interior design, often referred to as "Scandi," focuses on simplicity, functionality, and a connection to nature. It showcases clean lines, abundant natural light, and a minimalist, orderly appearance. Key elements include light colour schemes, natural materials like wood and wool, and a strong emphasis on creating a warm, inviting atmosphere through diverse textures and cosy fabrics. The Effy Side Table is 55cm high, 40cm wide, and 4 cm deep. It arrives partially assembled. The tabletop is crafted from Reach PVC veneer, and the legs are made of wood. If you're on the hunt for a side table that looks similar, there are tons of options to check out. Debenhams has slashed the price of this 'Tora' Triangle Side Table from £222.18 down to just £49.99. You can pick it up in three different wood finishes, and it boasts an impressive customer rating of 4.9 stars out of five. Ikea has a Stockholm pine veneer side table available for £70, which they describe as "easy to move around and adapt to different situations and needs." Meanwhile, Jysk has dropped the price of this Lydum pedestal from £49.99 to £40, but keep in mind that this deal is only valid until the end of the month. On the other hand, Dunelm's Effy Side Table currently holds a perfect five-out-of-five-star average rating. This is mainly because it has only received four reviews as of July 24—all of which were positive. So, if you're after more comprehensive feedback, this limited number of reviews might not be very reassuring. One shopper called Jay wrote: "The table is a nice colour, shape is a bit different, reasonable price, all good." Sophie said: "Lovely looking side tables for our new lounge. Can't wait to get the up and in use!" Minie put: "Beautiful table nice and compact, lovely wood. Great price. Delighted with it." A fourth said: "Brilliant side table, right height, and so easy to assemble a good weight to it also, very pleased with my purchase and always easy ordering process with Dunelm." The Effy Side Table is not available for Dunelm's Click and Collect service, so you'll have to pay extra for delivery. Standard delivery costs £3.95 and express is slightly more at £6.95.

Dunelm slashes 30% off ‘stunning' parasol that adds a ‘holiday vibe' to the garden in clearance deal
Looking for a way to make your sun-trap garden a bit more shaded? Dunelm has slashed the price of a unique parasol. Proving popular with shoppers, the Tiki Garden Parasol is in the clearance section, reduced from £59 to £41.30. 1 Tiki Garden Parasol £41.30 (was £59) The summer months are all about relaxing and soaking up the sun when you can, and building the ultimate garden set-up could be the answer to the perfect weekend. If you're not jetting off anytime soon, never fear as the hot weather keeps returning, and you could turn your outdoor space into a tropical paradise for less than you think. Dunelm's Tiki Garden Parasol has a straw-effect, which gives it the appearance of an umbrella you might find somewhere hot and sunny. If you're fed up of plain garden furniture and are looking for something a bit different to add to your space, the parasol could be a great choice. The parasol is 224cm tall, and the canopy covers 212cm, so you could place it next to a sun lounger or beside your garden dining table for some shade. There's a tilt mechanism, which allows you to adjust the placement of the shade, so you can change it when the sun moves during the day. It's worth keeping in mind that the parasol doesn't include a base or weights, so you will need to buy one separately. The parasol is one of thousands of items reduced in the Dunelm clearance offer, which cuts up to 75% off home and garden products. Shoppers have been leaving their reviews on the Dunelm parasol, with many having bought it this summer to add some shade to their gardens. One pleased buyer said: ''I've looked at many of these umbrellas, this is by far the best.'' ''Bought it for my garden bar.'' Another added: ''It's absolutely gorgeous, it's stunning - really happy with it and the price is well worth it, glad I purchased.'' While a third commented: ''It's lightweight and gives a holiday vibe to the garden.'' ''This parasol not only looks good, but is a great shade provider in the summer.'' Tiki Garden Parasol £41.30 (was £59) this summer.
