Lidl slashes the price of its sell-out hanging egg chair this week making it among the cheapest around
LIDL shoppers are in for another chance to pick up the popular hanging egg chair as it returns to the middle aisle once again.
The sell-out garden item is one of the cheapest available in the lead up to summer.
Customers can pick up the Livarno Home Hanging Garden Chair for just £149.99, and Lidl Plus members can knock an extra £20 off.
The stylish seat returned to the chain retailer over the bank holiday weekend, but shoppers may want to hurry as it has been cleared from shelves in the past.
And the £129.99 deal is only available until Saturday, May 10.
This chair features a cushioned seat and a stable powder-coated steel frame.
According to the product description, the item is “durable, easy-care, UV resistant, and weather resistant”.
It also has a safety handle for getting on and off with ease, and comes with a three-year warranty.
The chair has a maximum weight capacity of 110 kilograms and a wide-set base for your comfort.
A similar buy is available from B&Q, but at significantly higher price point.
The Maeria Dark Grey Hanging Egg Chair is currently available for £160.
Asda’s Hanging Egg Chair is available online and in-store for £249.
And Charles Bentley’s Egg-Shaped Hanging Swing Chair is currently reduced to £279.99.
While the Daals Rattan Patio Hanging Egg Chair sells for £299.99.
Meanwhile, the GoodHome Omalos Beige Hanging Chair, which is online exclusive, is selling for £225.
This item is also available from B&Q locations.
And shoppers also rushed to buy the egg chair from the Online Home Shop, which costs just £130.
Top gardening trends of 2025
Gardening experts at Barnsdale Gardens has shared the top gardening trends of 2025.
Matrix planting
It seems that a top planting trend for this year is going to be Matrix Planting.
In essence, planting in groups or blocks to give an effect of being wild whilst actually being carefully managed.
Selection of the plants is essential, to give year-round interest either with flowers, seed heads or frosted/snowy spent flower heads. Some recommend using plants that seed around, but this could make managing your matrix planting harder to keep under control.
Chrysanthemum comeback
I hope that the humble Chrysanthemum makes as much of a comeback this year as Dahlias have over recent years, because the simple single flowered types, such as ‘Innocence’ and ‘Cottage Apricot’ would be spectacular within a matrix scheme.
The hardy varieties are so easy to grow in a sunny spot and give such a valuable burst of late summer and autumn colour that would lift any dull- looking border.
Blended borders
For some time now we have been promoting the growing of veg within ornamental borders and I think this could really take off this year.
The choice of ornamental-looking varieties available in seed catalogues is phenomenal and, if managed correctly, visitors to your garden will not even realise that you have veg growing!
Must-have tool
My secret is out. I discovered the Hori Hori a couple of years ago and now it seems so is everyone else.
It is such a well-made, adaptable tool that can be used as a trowel or weeding tool in the garden that and everyone I speak to who have used it absolutely would not now be without it. Enough said!
Remember to compare prices
It is important to remember to always shop around when buying something like this as you might find a cheaper alternative.
