Dunelm shoppers say 'stylish' garden sofa set is a 'real bargain'
Many Dunelm shoppers are keen to make the most of the ongoing warm weather with a welcoming garden to relax in. With this in mind, the homeware store is offering customers quick delivery when ordering one of its best-selling garden sets online.
Shoppers say its Rattan Sofa Lounger Set is a "real bargain", "stylish" and "ideal for small spaces". It includes a three-seater sofa with a coffee table and an optional footstool that could be used for your feet or double up as a fourth seat.
It comes in a natural shade with white cushions or a grey with darker cushions. Both sets cost the same amount of £329, which several customers say is 'cheap' compared to other retailers.
Measuring just under 190cm long, the 'spacious' 3-seater sofa is "the perfect balance of comfort and functionality", according to Dunelm. The website adds: "The rattan design brings a modern and cohesive look to your garden, blending seamlessly with various styles of decor."
It continues: "Ideal for lounging in the sun or entertaining guests, the thick, supportive cushions ensure maximum comfort, while the table's tempered glass top adds a polished finish." More praise came in the review section as Dunelm customers shared their thoughts on the set, which you can read through below.
There are lots of garden furniture offers available elsewhere, though - just in time for the 27C 'mini heatwave' that experts claim is just days away. There are deals at The Range with this 5-Piece Sofa Set, discounted from £399.99 to £349.99, and this Alexandria Natural 3 Seater Rattan Wicker Outdoor Corner Sofa for £249.99 at Homebase, down from £349.99.
In the reviews of Dunelm's Rattan Sofa Lounger Set, one said: "Great outdoor sofa. It's not too big and fits in the space lovely. Super comfy cushions and the footrest can be in any of the three positions. Great value for money."
Another added: "It's just perfect for my small garden. My son put it together, and it was all straightforward." A third wrote: "Super stylish sofa set. I've bought two of these now. Excellent value and quality, easy to assemble. I would recommend."
There were a few unhappy shoppers though. One claimed: "The furniture wasn't as light coloured as in the picture but all in all I was happy with it. Like another reviewer mentioned, a little shallow in depth too, meaning an adult can feel like they're perching on the edge of it."
Another added: "I really wanted to like this rattan sofa set, but unfortunately, it's just not comfortable. The cushions are the biggest issue – they're overfilled, made from a shiny, slippery material that slides around constantly.
"You can't sit down without everything moving out of place, and they feel hard rather than plush. With the cushions on, the seat area becomes too shallow – it actually feels like you're almost slipping off the edge. I'm only 5 foot and even I can't fully stretch my legs out when using the footstool, so it definitely wouldn't work for taller people."
But, the reviews were mostly positive. Someone else shared: "We love this set. It's so comfortable and looks great. A real bargain!"
And, a fifith put in their review: "Lovely set very stylish and easy to put together I did it on my own within a couple of hours! Would highly recommend. The cushions are well made and deep very comfy."

Dunelm shoppers gush over 'lovely' blackout curtains that 'help improve sleep'
'Would buy again and have already recommended to a friend.' While sleeping is one of the most important parts of the day as it allows your body to rest and rejuvenate, there can be a variety of factors that can stop people from having a consistent night's sleep. From room temperature to noise to light in the room, there are many reasons why you may struggle to fall back into a blissful slumber. For those who struggle to sleep in the summer months due to the heat and daylight hours being longer, there is a simple homeware solution that could have a beneficial impact. In fact, one shopper said that their sleep had improved after making this purchase. Dunelm is currently selling the popular Luna Brushed Blackout Eyelet Curtains for between £28 and £130 depending on the size shoppers require. Additionally, shoppers can choose between over 30 different colours so they can seamlessly add this game changing curtain to their home aesthetic. Designed with both style and function in mind, these Luna Curtains will be able to either store or reduce the outdoor heat depending on the season as well as add a touch of elegance to your home, reports the Express. Featuring a soft, brushed wool-effect fabric, these curtains will beautifully hang in neat, even folds thanks to its eyelet header which makes them a breeze to put up. Whether placed in your living room, bedroom or bathroom, these curtains will limit the amount of light entering your home, allowing shoppers to have a well earned lie in. Boasting a temperature-smart design, these curtains will help keep out the cold during the chilly winter months, while also blocking out some of the sun's heat during long summer days. With prices varying by size, shoppers will need to have a good look through all of their favourite colourways as not all lengths are currently available. Luna Brushed Blackout Eyelet Curtains £28 - £130 Dunelm Buy Now Product Description Another popular set of blackout curtains on Dunelm is the Rotterdam Herringbone Blackout Eyelet Curtains. Priced between £20 and £60, shoppers only have four colourways available in this range - blush, mushroom, sage and steeple grey.

Back to the Luna Blackout Curtains, they currently have a 4.6 star rating from over 4,900 Dunelm shoppers. Many reviewers were impressed by the quality of the curtains, as well as how much light they were able to block out. One happy shopper said: "Hung these curtains in my bedroom, they hang lovely and look very neat. I needed blackouts to keep out the early morning sun and these do the job very well. Very pleased." While another five-star reviewer added on: "Really pleased with these curtains. Exactly as described. Nice fabric, heavy, blackout curtains that have improved my bedroom and my sleep!" However, one shopper wasn't fully impressed, writing: "Excellent blackout and warmth. Colour good. A bit thin however so not much sense of luxury." With another shopper agreeing: "Good level of black out. Texture not as smooth as I would have imagine but does the job. Personal preference more than anything." Despite this, a top reviewer commented: "Absolutely fantastic curtains. 100% true in description. Would buy again and have already recommended to a friend." While a sixth shopper noted: "I love these. They are so good quality for the price. Its difficult to find bigger width curtains without paying a fortune but Dunelm always fit the bill."

Debenhams' 'lovely and cosy' striped bedding in five colours now just £26
The 'understated' duvet set boasts a near-perfect rating on the Debenhams website. A new bedding set is one of the simplest ways to rejuvenate a room - no need for paint or DIY. For anyone considering freshening up their bed in this way, then Debenhams' sale is a good place to start. The retail giant currently has a wide range of stylish bedding at a discounted rate, including a timeless striped design that ticks all the boxes for style, comfort, and versatility. The Linen Yard's Hebden Mélange Stripe Duvet Cover Set is enjoying discounts of up to 41 per cent. A single is now just £26, down from £44, with a double costing £38, a king £46, and a super king just £50. The "understated" set is available in five colours; navy, natural, light green, grey, and brown. As of time of writing, all sizes are available in all colours, apart from brown, which has everything except single. The Hebden Mélange Stripe bedding features a subtle melange print and a woven striped finish. Each set comes with matching pillowcases with Oxford borders, giving them a sophisticated, hotel-style appearance, reports Essex Live. An added design feature is that it's reversible, allowing users to flip it over for an immediate style change without purchasing a second set. The reverse side has thinner pinstripes in the selected colour. The Linen Yard Hebden Mélange Stripe Duvet Cover Set £44-£80 £26-£50 Debenhams Buy Now on Debenhams Product Description To complete the look, pair the striped bedding with crisp white sheets and a few tactile cushions in contrasting textures (velvet, boucle or waffle knit, for instance). Add a chunky throw at the foot of the bed for extra warmth, and consider adding a ceramic bedside lamp and a fresh plant or dried flowers to maintain a cosy atmosphere. For shoppers looking around, The White Company also boasts some exquisite bedding options, such as the Whitley Duvet Cover Set. It is currently 30 per cent off, with prices starting from £56 for a single. Elsewhere, and more budget friendly, The Super Soft Microfibre Stripe Duvet Set from Dunelm is available from £10. In grey, navy, or white, shoppers can pick up a superking for just £16. The striped Hebden Mélange bedding has garnered impressive feedback on the Debenhams website, where it boasts a near-perfect rating. In fact, only one of the 14 reviews is not five stars. One satisfied customer said: "Great duvet set. Very understated stripes and good quality material." Another review read: "Cotton duvet cover. Great value! Would buy again." There was a one-star review, though specifics were not provided. It's worth noting that cotton tends to crease more, which could be a drawback for those who dislike ironing. Homewares deal of the week Looking to beat the heat as temperatures continue to rise? Then look no further than Dunelm's White Rechargeable USB Desk Fan that has an almost perfect five star rating for its small, yet mighty, design that means it works "even on the lowest setting." Easy to connect via a USB cable that can be connected to laptops and computers, this desk fan is perfect for those who find themselves working from home on these sweaty, humid summer days. However, it doesn't need to remain plugged-in, as the rechargeable element and compact six-inch design means it can be taken anywhere, even placed on a bedside table overnight on summer nights thanks to its "quiet" operation. It's finished with four speed settings to choose from and an adjustable angle that can help direct the cool breeze where it is needed, unlike other models that can sometimes be stuck in one place. As for Dunelm's own mini desk fan, it has received an impressive 4.8 rating from impressed shoppers who say that, despite its size, it is "surprisingly powerful" and "a literal life-saver" during this kind of weather. One five-star review read: "Fantastic fan, surprisingly powerful, quiet, lasts for quite a long time when charged, very hard to find a decent small rechargeable fan but this is it, will be buying more!" Beat the heat with Dunelm's White Rechargeable USB Desk Fan that costs just £25. But a different customer said they had no issues taking an iron to the set. They wrote: "Great quality, easy to iron, and looks great on the bed." Another five-star reviewer commented: "Excellent quality bedding, it is so cosy and looks great in my newly decorated bedroom." And someone else said: "Lovely bedding from Debenhams. Always my go-to shop, great choice and never been disappointed yet." The Linen Yard's Hebden Mélange Stripe Duvet Cover Set is available from £26 on Debenhams HERE.
