Here in the UK where the weather is famously unpredictable, the garden parasol has become a staple of outdoor living. Whether shielding our skin from a rare bit of sunshine or offering protection from unexpected drizzle, us Brits have a deep appreciation for this essential garden accessory. Ahead of the warmer weather, shoppers are snapping up a 2.
7m Macrame Parasol from Dunelm with glee. Available to buy for £79, the elegant parasol combines style and practicality, with a charming macrame fringe that sways gently in the breeze. Not only will it keep us protected during our outdoor endeavours, but buyers also think it adds a certain charm to the garden.
Designed with a wooden grain effect pole and a sturdy 37mm diameter, the push-up mechanism is a functional addition that makes it easy to put up and down. If you are looking for something a little less, Argos is selling the Habitat 3m Overhanging Garden Parasol for £110. With 21 reviews, shoppers love the extra shade the larger parasol provides in the garden.
Elsewhere, the £129 John Lewis x Sanderson Aluminium Wind-Up Parasol is like a work of art for your garden. Buyers who have already snapped up the garden parasol have shared their love for it on the Dunelm website. One five-star review said: "This parasol exceeded expectations.
Although it was slightly more grey than cream before it was up, making me feel a little anxious, once opened and in position it looked cream again and has been widely admired. Brilliant value, too." Another added: "I absolutely love it, really pretty, I had work colleagues over for a little party in my garden and everyone complimented how lovely it is.
" A third delighted shopper agreed, saying: "Great value for money...
transformed my garden !" Unfortunately, not all buyers were quite so satisfied with their purchase. One Dunelm shopper left a three-star review that said: "Gorgeous but very difficult to put up and having put it up, how on earth do I get it down? Help please!" Overall, most buyers are very impressed with the 2.7m Macrame Parasol.
Another indepth five-star review said: "Excellent quality, large parasol, heavy and well made. Some strength required to push it up to secure it, but very secure once clicked in. Excellent price for such a good item.
Colour slightly more light taupe than cream, in contrast the trim is cream and once opened out it looks fabulous! I would happily recommend.".
