With warmer weather approaching and World Cup gatherings on the horizon, shoppers can enhance their outdoor entertaining space for less thanks to a Dunelm bargain. The Folding Garden Bar, praised as 'great value' and 'looking amazing', is now available with a £25.80 discount.
Dunelm's Folding Garden Bar: Features and Benefits
This versatile item is designed for compact outdoor spaces, unfolding swiftly with no assembly required. It creates a practical area for serving alfresco drinks from a garden, patio, or balcony. At full price, the bar costs £129, but customers can currently save 20%, bringing the price down to £103.20. This saving comes at an ideal time for warm weather and World Cup parties.
To use the bar, simply unfold the side panels, fold down the hinged shelf, and add the countertop. The shelving is perfect for glasses and drinks, with under-shelf space for larger items like cocktail shakers, ingredients, and bottles. Made from sustainably sourced timber from managed forests, it comes with a 10-year guarantee against rot and is pressure treated for durability. The natural finish blends seamlessly into any garden.
One customer gave theirs a personal touch, writing: "Just brilliant, perfect size for my garden. Stick a neon bar sign on it - looks amazing." Another added: "Excellent quality and sturdy. We are using as a BBQ cooking station, it's multipurpose and folds away for storage when not in use."
Versatile Uses Beyond a Bar
Dunelm's product is not just a bar; it also serves as a great potting table or BBQ side table. A customer shared: "Very good quality in every respect. Actually using as a potting table but can adapt when required." When not in use, it folds away neatly for storage during winter or when not entertaining.
While most reviews are positive, one customer noted: "Good design, but poor finish. It has been returned for refund." However, the majority praise its quality and ease of use.
