Dunelm's 'charming' £20 bistro garden chair 'looks great all year round'
Dunelm has wowed shoppers with the 'brilliant' bistro chair that's available in two different colours
Families gearing up for summer fun are snapping up outdoor furniture, and one particular "stunning" £20 Dunelm chair is proving to be a popular choice with shoppers. Customers love the Rattan Bistro Chair, which comes in two colour options. Customers can choose from an all-black chair or a natural chair with black accents.
Dunelm says: "This Rattan Bistro Chair is all about comfort and style, with sturdy, metal construction and a durable woven rattan seat and back. Its stackable design lets you store it indoors or out, so you can use it year-round in any room of the house that needs an extra dose of charm."
Reviewers rated the chair highly, awarding it an average rating of 4.7 out of five. However, it's just one of many options for those keen to spruce up their garden, reports the Mirror.
Elsewhere, shoppers might like the Argos Home Resin Rattan Effect Stacking Garden Chair for £14 or The Range's Outsunny Garden Chairs Set of 4 Stackable Rattan Effect for £89.99. Meanwhile, those looking for something different might prefer Next's Charles Bentley Natural Garden Wooden Director's Chairs for £110.
Reviewing Dunelm's Rattan Bistro Chair, a buyer praised: "Love the colour of this comfortable garden chair. It's solid construction with all weather finish means it will be cheering up my garden for years to come."
A second said: "These look fantastic in my garden. Great value for money." Another shopper thought: "Excellent quality and value. Looks stunning in my summerhouse/crafting studio paired with a Dunelm Jute seat pad. Highly recommend." A different reviewer added: "This is an excellent garden chair. Perfect size and such good quality. Extremely easy to move around and the price is brilliant."
A shopper commented: "Just what we needed! We don't sit in the garden that often with our variable English weather so did not want to spend a lot of money on new chairs. These fitted with our existing table, are very lightweight, stackable and excellent value. Comfy too!"
However, someone with mixed feedback wrote: "Quality of the chairs are excellent but... Very small and neat. Not built for a larger person to sit on. We had a slight problem whereby my son in Law could not fit on the chair!!! would recommend though as they are well made."
A different reviewer claimed: "I bought 4 of these chairs last year, 2 grey and 2 turquoise. Unfortunately the turquoise ones have split and are not repairable. They have been stored etc in the same way (...). I am not impressed and won't be purchasing again." Another replied: "I bought the Seafoam colour and they have lasted just two seasons - always under a cover, and stored inside over winter. Took them out this spring, and all the rattan is breaking into pieces. What a shame."
Meanwhile, someone said: "Very thin coating of paint easily scratched off before I got them home even scratched off under protective packaging cheap and cheerful but not sure they will last more than 1 year and definitely not if left outside."
Other Dunelm options include the £39 Steel Garden Chair White, £49 Riviera Chair Jade and White, and £99 Sophie Robinson Café Bistro Chair. The product description for the £39 chair states: "Comfortable and sturdy, it's ideal for relaxing in your garden or on the patio. With its simple, stylish design, this chair adds a touch of practicality and elegance to any outdoor space."
