Wowcher shoppers are 'over the moon' with all-weather pergola that has 73% off

Let’s face it, the British summer weather can be pretty unpredictable - one minute we’re basking in the sunshine, the next dodging a downpour. Increasingly, shoppers are turning to retractable outdoor pergolas which allow them to adapt to changing conditions within seconds, so garden plans don't have to stop when the sunshine does.

For garden lovers looking for shade and shelter, one of the standouts of Wowcher's current home and garden sale is just the thing. The Outsunny 3x2m Retractable Outdoor Garden Metal Pergola is now back in stock, having already been snapped up by 2,886 buyers as one of the site's biggest sellers last summer.

Available to buy for £139, shoppers can save a whopping 75% off the original price as part of Wowcher's latest garden sale. For anyone looking for something a little larger, the pergola also comes in a 3x4m size for £169.

Featuring a UV-resistant canopy, the retractable design can provide both shade and shelter depending on the weather. Offer protection against sun damage, it also features eight integrated drainage holes to prevent water from pooling even during sudden showers.

Built with a sturdy powder-coated metal frame, the pergola is rust-resistant and made for long-lasting durability. It comes with eight anchor bolts for easy home assembly, ensuring it stays put even when the weather turns.

The canopy can be adjusted nice and easily, giving full control over how much sun or shade hits the spot. Whether hosting a garden party or enjoying a quiet afternoon outdoors, the cut-price pergola is practical and stylish way to make the most of outdoor space all year round.

More than just practical, pergolas bring a sense of purpose and style to outdoor spaces. The Outsunny pergola is so popular, buyers can also find it for sale on Amazon and Aosom, although the Wowcher deal is at least £33 cheaper that the other retailers.

For those looking for an alternative to a retractable pergola, Argos offers the Rowlinson Latina Canopy. Priced at £300, it’s slightly more expensive than the Outsunny model, but its sleek powder grey finish has proven popular with customers.

If a more temporary solution would be better suited, the Costway Pop Up Instant Gazebo Tent provides convenient, removable shade. Available at B&Q for £107.95, it’s ideal for occasional use and can be easily stored away when not needed.

Anyone looking for more shade from the sun, shopping marketplace Yimbly (owned by the Mirror's parent company Reach Plc), is selling an Outsunny Pergola With Retractable Roof And Curtains for £309.99. With drapes on every side, it can be placed over garden furniture for a beach club feel in the back garden.

While there are no reviews for the Outsunny Pergola on the Wowcher website, shoppers have left plenty of feedback on Amazon and Aosom. One buyer said: "Excellent, sturdy, bargain, easy for two to erect. We are over the moon with this it looks amazing."

Another added: "This was absolutely perfect for us. We live by the sea so it gets pretty windy, We’ve had every kind of gazebo, last year we had 3 in one season, the retractable roof means we can have it as shaded as we want, no having to get help to put roof on and off all the time when the winds up. It’s very sturdy and looks great. If I had room I’d get another one."

A third customer loved how easy it was to erect, saying: "Excellent quality quick delivery and very attractive. Hubby put it up on his own and he's old!"

Sadly not everyone was quite so impressed. One disappointed shopper left a two-star review on Amazon that said: "Made from very thin metal, very flimsy, not sturdy at all. Also takes 5 people to build otherwise it bends and twists - not worth the money."

Overall, most buyers were happy with their purchase. One five-star review summed it up saying: "Brilliant quality pergola. Very easy to put up and it's excellent value for money!"
