Dunelm’s ‘durable and sturdy’ hanging egg chair is perfect for spring sunshine
As the days grow longer and the sun shines brighter, many of us are no doubt itching to spend more time in our gardens. To make the most of the warmer weather, a comfortable outdoor seat is, arguably, a must-have.
One option that has gained immense popularity in recent years is the hanging egg chair. Not only do they look stylish, but they also provide a sense of weightlessness as you gently rock back and forth.
If you’re in the market for a new outdoor seat, consider the Singapore Hanging Egg Chair from Dunelm. Priced at £199, this chair is described as “durable and sturdy” by the manufacturer.

But don’t just take their word for it – over 850 customers have left reviews, with an average rating of 4.9 stars out of 5. One reviewer raved: “Absolutely love this swinging egg chair. So comfortable and relaxing. 100% recommend.”
Another customer was equally impressed: “Bought to add something different to the garden. They are easy to assemble and very comfy. Looks great. Would recommend buying covers so in the winter months they are protected,” reports the Express.
A third reviewer also sang the chair’s praises: “Absolutely love this hanging chair. I bought it on a recommendation from a friend and wasn’t disappointed. Just the right size, and the right ’tilt’ to sit/hang in comfort. The base takes up a fair bit of space and as much as we’d like a second for ‘social hanging’ I am not sure we have the floor space for two.
“On the upside, it means some solitude and peace and quiet. Bought a generic cover online which does a good job of keeping the cushion dry, though will bring the cushion in over winter. Will see how it fares over a winter with the frame being exposed to the elements, but so far, so very good.”
Despite the overwhelmingly positive feedback, a few users have reported some negatives to the product, as well. One purchaser mentioned: “It’s a shame that a cover wasn’t supplied”, while another commented: “OK but instructions not clear at all but price not too bad.”
