Shoppers snap up £74 rattan furniture set amid warm weather

Shoppers snap up £74 rattan furniture set amid warm weather

Daily Mirror19-05-2025
From cordless vacuums to memory foam mattresses, the deals site has some serious homeware steals
Picking out something new for a home is always a treat - whether it's an outdoor furniture set for sunny days or a kitchen gadget that promises to make meal prep a breeze. Of course, these updates can come with a hefty price - but with so many homeware sales, it's worth shopping smart.
While high-street stores like Next and Debenhams might be known for home and garden deals, Wowcher is also worth considering. Although arguably best known for its £99 Mystery Holiday Deal, the site is a surprisingly savvy spot to score savings on stylish and practical homeware.
There are plenty of bargains to snap up, from trendy garden sets to comfy bedding. We've scoured the site and rounded up some of the best home and garden deals available now. Scroll down for our top picks.
Outdoor furniture
Rattan remains a timeless and practical choice for garden furniture, offering durability, water resistance and a look that never goes out of style. With that in mind, this four-seater set is currently reduced to £74, down from £199, saving shoppers £125.
It includes a two-seater sofa, two armchairs, a matching coffee table and washable seat cushions - ideal for hosting friends or lounging with a cold drink. Available in three neutral shades - black, grey and brown - each version is available on sale.
Though it arrives flat-pack, Wowcher estimates it takes 45 minutes to set up. For ease of set up, we recommend roping in a friend or family member to help.
For shoppers looking for something bigger and happy to splash out, Dunelm has a space-saving eight-seater set with cube chairs and a roomy table for £589. A reviewer said: "Very sturdy set - took about three hours to assemble and can be a bit fiddly at times but pleased with it overall."
Electronics
Wowcher also offers a wide range of electronics, from laptops and cameras to mobile phones and smartwatches. But with the weather heating up, one standout deal caught our eye.
This compact air cooler and humidifier fan is down to £14.99 from £29.99 - a budget-friendly way to stay cool this summer. It features six levels of cool air distribution, plus a handy timer function to schedule operation around your day. Even better, it doubles as a dehumidifier, helping to remove excess moisture from the air to prevent mould and mildew.
The unit also has a USB charging cable, meaning it can be used virtually anywhere. Meanwhile, a sleek USB display makes adjusting wind settings and the timer a breeze.
It's worth noting that it's quite compact at 30cm tall, so it's ideal for desktops, bedside tables or small rooms. For shoppers after something more powerful for larger spaces, Shark's FlexBreeze Portable Fan is a great alternative - and it's down to £175 from £199 now.
Mattresses
Mattresses can be costly investments, but as we spend approximately a third of our lives in bed, they're worthwhile ones. Wowcher is currently offering a discount on Emma Sleep's award-winning Hybrid Original Mattress; a double size is down to £309 from £389.34, while a single is reduced to £199 from £260.
It features three layers of advanced foam designed to enhance sleep by increasing breathability and evenly distributing weight. The mattress boasts an impressive 4.6-star rating via Emma Sleep.
A satisfied user commented: "I do recommend 100% worth the money," after noting that they no longer suffer from back pain since the purchase. Another buyer remarked: "This mattress is firmer than I expected, but I've been sleeping on it now for a couple of months, and I find it comfortable."
Otherwise, Simba Sleep has slashed hundreds of pounds off its mattresses in its limited-time bank holiday sale. That includes 20% off its popular Hybrid Mattress, which has sold over 1.5 million times.
Cleaning appliances
Vacuuming is rarely anyone's favourite chore, but it's made a lot easier (and quicker) with a powerful cordless model. Dyson is a household name for a reason, and this is a brilliant deal on the Dyson V8, currently down to £169 from £212.46, saving shoppers £43.46.
This lightweight vacuum cleaner easily converts into a handheld device, making it ideal for cleaning stairs, awkward corners and skirting boards. It offers up to 40 minutes of power on a full charge, so you can zip through multiple rooms without plugging it in.
One thing to note: this particular model is refurbished, meaning it's been professionally restored to working condition - fully tested, cleaned and ready to use, though it may show minor signs of wear. For shoppers who prefer a brand new model, it's available via Dyson's website for £399.99. Alternatively, Shark offers a strong range of high-performing vacuums worth considering. The Stratos Anti Hair Wrap Plus Pet Pro Cordless Vacuum, with a strong 4.5-star rating, is now reduced to £299.99 from £449.99.
Customers who've shopped at Wowcher say they've had a great experience, awarding the site a 4.3 star rating on Trustpilot. One said: "Great choice of offers." While another added: "Easy to order, always a great range of options to choose from. Great deals, easy to transfer credit for other purchases."
The majority of the less-positive reviews concern delivery charges, as shoppers are charged separately for each item. This is because Wowcher is a marketplace and orders are fulfilled by individual vendors. 'The other thing is, when you buy a few items, you have to pay postage for each individual item which then ends up costing a fortune,' said one affected customer.
However, another happy reviewer shared: "Easy ordering procedure once you get your head around the voucher system, and the extra step in the process is worth it for the amount of money saved. The garden relaxer chairs are fantastic value for money, they look robust and comfortable. The delivery was very quick - took less time than advised."

Boden's 'comfy' leopard print shoes that 'make an outfit feel special' now 15% off

The statement Mary Jane shoes are ideal for adding a pop of colour to any outfit Fashion fans who love bold prints and are looking to add to their summer footwear collection are sure to fall head over heels with Boden's leopard print Flexi Mary Janes. The classic shoe has been given a modern twist with a vibrant animal pattern edged with soft pink. Available in sizes 36 (UK 3.5) to 42 (UK 8.5), the footwear usually retails at £55, however shoppers can get 15% off for a limited time with the discount code W7CX. This brings the price of the statement shoes down to £46.75. The Flexi Mary Janes are ideal for adding a pop of colour to any outfit, whether it's a pair of jeans and a T-shirt, or a smock dress. Boden says the shoes will 'raise a smile' whenever the wearer looks down at their feet. For shoppers who prefer a plain shoe, Boden also sells the footwear in plain red with the same soft pink edging. It's worth noting, however, that this colour option is currently sold out in a few sizes, highlighting the popularity of the Mary Janes. Boden isn't the only retailer selling quirky leopard print footwear at a discounted price. Clarks is offering the Emelina Gem Leopard Print ballet pumps on sale for £26, reduced from £40. These are available in sizes 3 to 8 and have a delicate buckle strap. Next is selling leopard print Forever Comfort Ballerinas Shoes in standard and wide fits for £22. They come in sizes three to nine and have built-in padding and memory foam, offering 'endless comfort'. One delighted shopper who has already added Boden's Flexi Mary Janes to their footwear collection shared: "Gorgeous shoes, super comfy even walking quite long distances. They make an everyday outfit feel that little bit special." "These are cute, comfortable fabric shoes," wrote another happy buyer. "Great to have a soft, light shoe for summer. I love Mary Janes and find sandals don't work for me." However, they did go on to note: "I am usually a size 40, so bought that. Even looking at these shoes, they seem more like a 39." Someone else found the leopard print Flexi Mary Janes to be 'not true to size', as they explained: "Pretty, nice shoes but unfortunately having to return these… I'm usually a 39/40, I ordered the 40 but they pinch across the top of my foot and are rubbing at the back. I may order a 41 if there's another sale on." In contrast, a five-star review reads: "Very cool shoe. So comfortable and snazzy."
