Dunelm’s ‘brilliant’ and ‘bargain’ parasol has £50 off in summer sale
IN the scorching heat on a summer’s day we seek out shade, and on wintery days we need to shield from the wind. The solution – a parasol.
Yes, parasols are a popular piece of outdoor furniture in the summer to provide shade from the sun’s rays, but they can protect you from the elements all year round, even passing showers only for blue skies to reappear.
3m Shanghai Peacock Cantilever Parasol, £49.50 (Was £99), Dunelm
Dunelm has an unmissable offer on the 3m Shanghai Peacock Cantilever Parasol, which has been reduced from £99 to £49.50, and must-have when shopping for garden furniture.
It is unknown how long the deal will last for, or stock for that matter, but we do know we need it.
The Peacock Parasol is an aptly named piece of outdoor furniture because of its vibrant hue.
Though it doesn’t come in different colours, the aqua blue stands out, but still in keeping with external spaces.
This design is made from polyester and a metal base to withstand the elements and hold in place for hours on end.
The parasol features a crank to make the umbrella easy to open and close.
The parasol canopy itself can be titled into almost any position to ensure you are shielded from the sun.
The parasol measures a height of 256cm, which is just shy of three metres making it big enough for even the largest gardens.
The set is made from durable fabrics, but Dunelm recommends covering the parasol, or storing it away in a cool place with airflow when not in use, particularly over the winter, to avoid any rusting or damage.
This parasol is easy to clean by simply wiping it dry, and Dunelm has stressed avoiding washing with a jet wash to protect the parasol even more.
The set includes a base, but Dunelm has also suggested adding parasol weights on top of the base for extra security on those gusty days.
While the crank will ensure the parasol stays up, Dunelm has also suggested checking the tightness of the fixtures for extra security.
This top-rated parasol has garnered high praise from shoppers, and not just because it is on offer for half price.
One shopper said: “Brilliant sturdy parasol, lovely colour and of good quality, would recommend to anybody.”
Another added: “Really good quality, feels sturdy, lovely colour and adds a nice touch to the garden.”
Other shoppers noted the size of the parasol, which some claimed was big enough to shield a large family.
A separate comment read: “This umbrella is perfect for our family of 5, beautiful colour and very well made.”
While another added: “Really pleased with this parasol and a bargain price, I also ordered the weights for the base and they were in the sale also.”
Of course, to complement the parasol you will need an outdoor lounge set or hanging egg chair – and probably a walkie-talkie to request your cold drinks on tap from a family member!
