A "beautiful" garden parasol is catching the eye of Dunelm shoppers keen to add some shade to their outdoor areas. The Recycled Polyester Cream Carousel Parasol has been praised for offering "excellent value for money", while giving "amazing shade" thanks in large part to it measuring 2.7m across and standing at an impressive 2.

85m high, The Express reports. Anyone who loves the outdoors will no doubt be searching for a shady spot to spend the summer months, and the size of this parasol, coupled with the tilt function, makes life a lot easier on that front. Dunelm claims the large parasol offers "a great way to create shade and cool down as the weather heats up", while "the crank mechanism makes opening easy".

It's gone down well with most of those who've bought it to date, with an average rating of 4.3 stars out of date. One impressed reviewer said: "I am so happy with this sun shade, it looks beautiful when it's up.

It's a great size and really easy to put up and take down. As it's metal it's much more robust than wood. It's also really easy to take up as it's not too heavy.
