Aldi’s famous hanging egg chair is back later this week – here’s how to buy one
The mornings are getting lighter and the sun is finally starting to shine once more but the good news doesn’t stop there, as Aldi has made all our springtime garden dreams come true by announcing it will be restocking its sell-out hanging egg chair again this weekend.
Back due to huge demand, the coveted garden item is one of Aldi’s bestselling Specialbuys, with the store reporting record sales every time it comes back in stock. But its popularity should come as no surprise considering the gorgeous rattan egg chair’s bargain price.
Costing just £189.99, the Aldi egg chair is a bargain considering similar versions can set you back thousands, but eagle-eyed shoppers will notice that the budget supermarket has inflated the price slightly this time around.
Last year, the egg chair cost £40 less but, bearing in mind how tricky it’s been to get hold of garden furniture in recent years and how quickly this particular style sells out, we’re sure the hike isn’t going to impact sales.
Based on previous restocks and the persistent buzz surrounding the cult buy, it is likely that the egg chair is going to sell out quickly, so you’ll need to act fast if you want to get your hands on one.

Can you pre-order Aldi’s hanging egg chair?
Unfortunately, the answer is no. The chair is part of the supermarket’s Specialbuys range and only a limited number of them will be available this weekend.
Saving you a trip to the supermarket, Aldi’s egg chair is available online only from 8am on Sunday 13 February. So make sure you set your alarm.
Luckily for you, we’ve reviewed the coveted piece of furniture to help you decide if it’s worth virtually queuing up for. Ahead of the re-stock, here’s everything you need to know.
Gardenline hanging egg chair: £189.99, Aldi.com – available from 8am on 13 February
Returning for 2022, the egg chair is perfect for anyone wanting to give their garden a stylish upgrade for outdoor gatherings as the weather warms up.
Suspended from a powder-coated iron frame via a sturdy-looking chain, the grey rattan chair is detachable, which makes it easy to move around so you can chase the sun during the day or find a shaded corner in which to read a book.
Owing to its popularity and cheap price, it’s a constant sell-out. But, does it live up to the hype? We think so. Selected as the best hanging egg chair in our tried and tested review, our writer noted that while “attractively affordable”, it “doesn’t scrimp on quality, making it a hugely popular patio piece”. “Made from a polythene flat wicker with a criss-cross weave, it looks and feels like an authentic rattan number – and much more expensive than it is,” our tester added.
The chair comes with a set of dark grey cushions, too, including one designed specifically for your head to provide maximum comfort, which “further adds to its cosy appeal”. This year, shoppers are also being given the option to buy the chair with a cover, which will protect it from any sudden downpours, for an extra £10.
It’s a must-have piece of garden furniture, so mark the date in your calendar now and set an alarm for 8am on Sunday.
Available online from 13 February
