People who bought the seats said ‘you can’t go wrong with these’ with their comfort and easy set-up
When the rain does clear up, Brits will want to take full advantage of the summer weather and enjoy some time in the garden. For some, relaxing in the sunshine is their idea of a perfect day – but you need some suitable chairs.
Most people likely bought items at the beginning of the season to make the most of the recent heatwaves. But, if people didn’t – or simply need to revamp their existing seats, then Dunelm has a reduction on a set of “vibrant” colourful loungers that offer “optimal comfort.”
The Helsinki Loungers are available in twin bundles for £48.50, down from £69, in a deal that makes each seat cost just over £24. The set of two deal comes in two colours that aren’t available if buying the same style of chair separately: navy blue and lilypad green.

Dunelm claims that these low-maintenance loungers “redefine outdoor comfort” with adjustable backrests allowing for personalised reclining positions. Made with durable materials designed to withstand outdoor conditions, these loungers “promise longevity without compromising on style or comfort,” Dunelm adds.
There are alternatives for anyone looking for a quick solution to garden seating – such as the Folding Metal Zero Gravity Sun Lounger (Argos, £45) or the Colorado Grey Metal Sun Lounger (B&Q, £35 down from £50). However, hundreds of shoppers posted glowing reviews online after ordering the Dunelm garden set.
One said: “Lovely comfy reclining chairs, I actually fell asleep in them!” Another added: “Great value and lovely colour. Sturdy, easy to assemble and store. Very comfy to sit in too!”
A third wrote: “Sturdy, easy to set up and super comfy. Perfect colour to go with our garden décor too (true to ad pictures), and they don’t take a ton of space when folded away in the garage. At that price for a pair, you can’t go wrong with these!”
A few had some issues, though, as one claimed: “The cords that hold the seats to the frame are fraying heavily and have broken in several places. They are now unusable.” And, another suggested: “Very comfortable chairs although a little fiddly to open.”
Someone else put: “The knobs that make them recline are plastic and so seem a bit fragile so not sure how long they will last. Also one of the chairs seems to very slowly go back to upright position, so have to keep adjusting it.”
However, the majority of feedback was positive. A satisfied shopper who awarded five stars in their review put: “Love these loungers – easy to fold and unfold, very comfortable. The green goes beautifully in my garden.”
One more posted: “Great design and very sturdy. Easy to use and move around the garden.” And, another wrote: “The loungers are great, they are exactly the colour I wanted, comfortable and easy to use and no self assembly required and a great price.”
