Bargain hunters are racing to purchase chairs from the Dusk sale that bear a striking resemblance to a pricier Next alternative — and they are 'obsessed' with the aesthetic. The Lola Set of 2 Dining Chairs in the 'mono stripe' colourway is now priced at £119, reduced from £149, on Dusk's website, working out at £59.50 per chair.
Design and Features
The Lola Set of 2 Dining Chairs is described as boasting a contemporary yet classic design, with a gently curved half-moon silhouette that brings a refined touch to any dining area. Covered in a luxurious, soft-touch fabric, they are crafted to deliver comfort alongside style. Chic black legs lend the chairs a sleek, modern appeal, allowing them to blend effortlessly into both traditional and modern settings. Sold as a pair, they are perfect for establishing a harmonious dining zone or complementing a co-ordinating table for a sophisticated look.
Colour Options and Versatility
Offered in multiple shades, these chairs can be adapted to various interiors — whether hosting dinner parties, enjoying daily meals, or simply elevating home décor. The range of colours ensures there is an option to suit different tastes and existing colour schemes.
Comparison with Alternatives
For a comparable but costlier alternative, Next stocks the Rockett St George Set of 2 Studio Stripe Velvet Sand and Black Perfect Dining Chairs for £295, equating to £147.50 per chair. Like the Dusk option, this set is available in the 'studio stripe velvet sand and black' shade, alongside four other choices. Dunelm also offers the Marlo Woven Mid Stripe Snuggle Chair for £319.20, marked down from £399. This particular model features 'generous cushioning and a low laid-back shape', as stated in the description, complete with smooth stitched detailing.
Customer Reviews
The Lola Set of 2 Dining Chairs has garnered an impressive 4.93 out of five-star rating from over 300 reviews on Dusk, reports the Manchester Evening News. One customer enthused: 'Stunning set of chairs, obsessed. Really easy and quick to put together, great quality!!' Another added: 'Over the moon with the chairs. Have a set of four. All great quality and sturdy. Easy to assemble. Done it alone and very quickly. Great price. Comfy and stylish look.' A third remarked: 'They look so classy.'
A small number of reviewers had minor reservations, with one noting: 'Great chairs and value, but in the picture the chairs looked lighter in colour, in real life they are grey.' Another commented: 'These are nice looking chairs and pretty comfy. They are a bit firm when you first sit down, but you do then sink down into the foam! They look as pictured and really do finish my dining space off nicely. Overall I'm happy.'
