Egg chair?

[Cathairinmysoup]

Thinking of buying an egg chair for the garden with some birthday money. Will it be a beautiful addition to my garden which I shall love and cherish (YANBU) or something that sits in a cover for 90% of the time and just gets crapped on by the pigeons? (YABU to waste your money on this folly)

I love mine, it’s my happy place and I spend every dry day in the summer in it when I’m not working! 😊

I put it in the garage over the winter and during the summer I cover it with an egg chair cover (under £15 from Amazon).

I love mine. It's the Aldi one which used to sell out immediately but is regularly in stock at the moment. Two people have bought one having sat in mine.

Can you sit them directly on the lawn or do you need a patio? I have long fancied one but not sure we have the space 🤔

I love mine. I go there to relax and watch the bats in the evening. Because it's curved, it feels sheltered & secluded. Get one!

Oooh. I can feel a shop coming on! 👏

The egg part of mine folds for easy storage. Got it from The Range last year. Also have a cover for the summer. And you can now get nets of fairy lights too! Love mine. So comfy.

Love mine!

I have one. No one sits in it since it toppled backwards into the pond I should get rid of it but it makes me laugh and the dogs like it

I love mine too. When it's sunny I retreat there and it's like a private little space just for me.

😂

I got one this weekend from Fenwicks. I just need to put it together but as it's raining I haven't bothered yet as the cover hasn't arrived yet.

I bought the double Aldi one last summer. It came with a cover, and I store my other seat cushions in it too.

Very happy with it.

I love mine. Small garden, it’s in a sunny corner and it’s comfy and looks pretty. Just left it outside all winter with no issues. It’s not a swinging one though, it’s one with legs, I wanted to be stable 😂

Absolutely love mine.

I love mine. I bought a double one so I can lounge with my feet up, loads of cushions and snuggled in a throw and reading.

I've always wanted one of these chairs but have a tiny garden so no space. I've seen one type where the chair part folds flat for storage but they were a lot more expensive than the Aldi ones. If you like it, can afford it and have somewhere to put it then I'd go for it!

I love mine. I have it indoors in winter and have added extra cushions and a matching blanket. It's my quiet place.

I have lost two covers by them blowing up like hot air balloons and disappearing never to be seen again.

So now I keep the chair in the garage and only bring it out on a sunny day if I can be bothered.

If anybody can recommend a better cover I would be mighty grateful

Glad to read that people love them - DS has been begging for one for ages so we've got one on its way. If its as comfy as everyone says i might get myself one too!

Ooh Could we please have some links?

The ones I’ve seen lately are very £££

I’ve seen reviews that say this year’s Aldi ones aren’t as good as previous years’. Is that right?

Get a cover with a drawstring to seal it at the bottom. Try B&M.

We have the Apolima one from b&q. It was about £300 on offer. It's amazing, really deep and can comfortably snuggle with my two kids on it but I spend so much more time hanging out in my garden now I have such a comfy seat. I actually prefer it to my sofa.

I thought these were tacky and shit until I sat in my friend's then immediately bought one. Perfect space to curl up with a bottle of wine and an audio book on a summer's evening. Or tea and toast on a morning.

Doesn't need much room. Mines on the balcony.

This is mine. £500 but currently 20% off. Must have gone up because I paid about £350 with a discount www.johnlewis.com/john-lewis-dante-garden-hanging-pod-chair/natural/p2067115
