The great British summer may be looking like a washout at the moment, but brighter days are on the way – and if you want to enjoy them in style, Dunelm has just the piece of garden furniture for you, now at an enticing 50% off.
The Santorini Egg Chair would usually set you back £249, but for a limited time only, you can pick it up at half-price, for just £124.50, in either the Jade Mist or Multicoloured colourways.
The egg chair is a great way to make a ‘bold statement’ in your garden this summer, showcasing vibrant colours and a unique rattan weave, with the egg-shaped seat hanging from a sturdy, powder-coated steel frame.
The one-seater garden furniture is also weather-resistant, so it doesn’t matter if it gets left outside during an unexpected summer downpour. And it is easy to clean with a damp sponge in case of any marks or spillages.
Once assembled, the outdoor seating stands at 188cm tall by 118cm wide by 121cm deep – and is ‘incredibly comfortable’ to sit in, with Dunelm shoppers saying it ‘hugs your body just right’ for when you want to curl up with a morning cup of tea or a good book in the garden.
It is no surprise, then, that the egg chair has garnered a customer rating of 4.2 stars out of five on the Dunelm website.

One satisfied shopper said: “This egg chair is an absolute showstopper. The vibrant, eye-catching colours instantly brighten up any room or outdoor space, making it a perfect statement piece. Beyond its playful look, it’s incredibly comfy. The curved design hugs your body just right, and the cushioned seat offers great support for long lounging sessions.
“It effortlessly blends chic style with cosy comfort. Whether you’re curling up with a book or just enjoying a sunny day, this chair turns relaxation into a stylish experience. A must-have for anyone who wants a bold pop of colour and a touch of modern elegance in their space!”
Another added: “Hands-down the best and most comfortable piece of garden furniture I’ve ever bought. So comfortable and relaxing to sit in. My husband said it was a bit fiddly to put together and it took a while, but no major problems. Really pleased, it looks fabulous on our patio with the pergola overhead and greenery behind it.”
And a third said: “Fantastic egg chair, very deep and ergonomic seat. You can sit with your legs in and there is still room. The best I have ever sat in. Colours are very modern. Really recommend it.”
Meanwhile, a fourth buyer joked: “Don’t invite your friends to try it, you can’t get them out of it!”
However, some shoppers have noted that the chair is a “nightmare” to put together, as one said: “Love the look of these chairs, and the comfort. Absolute nightmare to put together. Had to buy all new screws to assemble as they continuously broke.”
And another commented: “Not easy to put together, and bolts are not strong enough for the job as they snap easy. I put together on my own, but does need two people.”
