Aldi is offering a garden chair that could be the ideal choice for those looking to enjoy the scorching weather forecast for this bank holiday weekend. With temperatures in London set to reach 30°C on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday (May 23-25) under clear, sunny skies, according to the Met Office, many will be planning to relax in their gardens.
The supermarket's Belavi Sling Folding Chair, priced at just £14.99, serves as a budget-friendly alternative to a similar set of chairs available at The Range, which carries a significantly higher price tag. Designed for outdoor use, the chair is available in black or grey, folds flat for convenient storage, and features a powder-coated steel frame.
Aldi describes the chair as fade-resistant with easy-to-clean sling fabric, measuring 71 x 58 x 91 cm. The product description on Aldi's website states: "Sit back and relax whilst soaking up the sun or enjoying your first barbecue of the year."
Comparison with The Range's Chairs
The style, colour, and construction bear a resemblance to The Range's Aluminium Garden Chair, sold as a set of six for £264.99. Each chair in that set works out at roughly £44, making Aldi's £15 option a seriously wallet-friendly alternative.
Like Aldi's version, The Range's chairs are easy to care for, foldable, and made with synthetic mesh fabric. However, there are notable differences beyond the price. The Range's chair is smaller at 67 x 56 x 105 cm and features a slightly higher backrest and curved bars.
Another alternative at The Range that closely resembles Aldi's version is the Outsunny Folding Chair with Aluminium Frame, priced at £62.99 for a set of two, which works out at £31.50 per chair. This still makes Aldi's £15 option a remarkably budget-friendly choice.
Product Details from The Range
In the product description on The Range's website, the retailer states: "This elegant folding garden chair with a high back from Tectake is perfect for enjoying a relaxing evening in your outdoor space, be it in the garden, on the terrace or on the balcony. The outdoor dining chairs' synthetic mesh fabric is durable, optimally adapts to the body and provides good ventilation while sitting.
"The metal framed backrest can be adjusted in seven angles, whilst the chair can be completely collapsed for space-saving storage. In addition, the chair is very light as a result of the base frame which is made of aluminium. Alongside other furniture like a garden table and extra accessories like solar lamps, you can convert your outdoor space into the ultimate open-air kitchen and enjoy a fresh dining experience from the comfort of your own home."
These chairs are available in sets of various quantities, so shoppers can find the one that suits them best. The retailer adds: "Search no further for the perfect chairs to complement your garden table and complete your dining set, these aluminium garden chairs from Tectake are sure to impress."
