The chair is listed on Dunelm's website for £199 and has more than 600 five-star reviews.

It is made from metal and rattan and comes complete with a large cushion that customers have described as being a "great size and comfy".

The chair is back in stock after completely selling out last year, and you just have to read the reviews to find out why it was so popular.

One happy shopper described the egg chair as "my favourite piece of garden furniture".

Another said: "Very comfortable and snuggly chair, you feel like you're getting a hug!"

A couple of other people also commented that the chair was "really easy to assemble".

There are other matching items in the range too, making it the perfect choice for your summer garden makeover.

As well as the Singapore hanging egg chair, there is also a four-seater garden set, priced at £599, and a black framed egg chair also costing £199.

As the warmer weather edges closer the outdoor offering among retailers is becoming more prevalent.

The Range recently slashed the price of its egg chair, giving shoppers the chance to save £57 on its original price.

The popular garden accessory usually retails at £192 but had 30% off over Easter, meaning it was just £135.

Retailers opening shops in 2024

We checked to see if the offer is still available, and at the time of checking the chair was still reduced, but not as much.

The Range offer is now £140 with 27% off, which is still a decent saving and makes it cheaper than the Dunelm egg chair.

However, it is worth bearing in mind that although many retailers have models that might be cheaper the quality could differ.

This is why it is always good to shop around to make sure you are getting an item that suits your style and needs as well as your budget.

We spotted a Samuel Alexander grey hanging egg chair in B&Q for £189 and there is also an Outdoor Living single hanging egg chair in Debenhams for £219.

Prices can vary by quite a lot and just by checking online we spotted prices ranging from £140 up to as much as £699 in some specialist outlets.

You can use online comparison sites such as Google Shopping to compare the prices across different retailers and also check what else is out there.

Also, bear in mind that you could get a better offer in-store too, so keep your eyes peeled when you are out and about.

It can often be a good idea to go to your local store and see something in the flesh, especially if it is a large and pricey purchase like an egg chair.

You can usually find your local retailer by using a store locator tool on its website.

Remember that not all stores stock all products, so it is worth calling ahead to make sure you do not have a wasted trip.

What other retailers have offers on outdoor essentials?

B&M has brought back its range of iconic egg chairs and they are even cheaper than last year.

The garden must-have sells out every year and this year the popular discounter has slashed prices.

Not only that there is now more choice with the introduction of a brand-new collapsible Santorini folding egg chair.

However, it is the original and hugely popular Siena range that has been knocked down in price.

Here are the three options available in B&M this year.

  • Siena Single Egg Chair is £200 this year but was £250 last year.
  • Siena Double Snuggle Egg Chair is not just £250 was £325 last year.
  • Santorini Folding/Collapsible Egg Chair is going for just £150.

If you are looking to get your hands on one of these, you better be quick as they usually fly off the shelves.

You can find your nearest B&M branch by using the retailer's store locator tool on its website.

Bear in mind, not all B&M's will have the egg chair though - it might be worth calling ahead to see if they've got any in stock.

Meanwhile, Aldi has been busy launching its huge garden range, with prices starting from as little as £2.29

Products have already started landing on the Specialbuys aisle and more are set to come in April.

The first drop landed in stores on March 28, with further products available from April 7 and 25.
