I really wanted to gatekeep this new Aldi hammock! It nails the biggest summer trend for retro stripes – and it's just $19.99

I have never clicked 'add to cart' faster

I spend a lot of time scrolling through Aldi Finds, and I will always shout if I find something that's actually a great buy. But part of me really wants to gatekeep this find because it's the nicest thing I have seen on Aldi so far this summer, and I know it's going to sell out so fast.

It's a hammock chair, which Aldi has done a few of so far this summer, and they have flown off the shelves, but from a style perspective, they have always had a slightly practical, camping vibe to them. However, this new launch is very aesthetic and nails the biggest summer trend for retro stripes. There's also a cream offering for the neutral lovers, and my second favorite, a really rich terracotta shade too.

And as well as being super stylish, they are just $19.99! Which, even for Aldi, seems incredibly cheap.


We all know that Aldi Finds don't hang around for long (excuse the pun), so if the hammock chairs are already out of stock online, not available in your area, or you don't have a local Aldi to pop down to, these alternatives have been on my wish list since the start of summer. All still chic and reasonably priced.


A hammock chair just became an essential piece of outdoor furniture for the summer – the perfect piece to create a relaxing spot within your patio. It's also a really affordable buy too, even if you miss that $19.99 bargain at Aldi, Wayfair, Walmart, and Target all offer hammock chairs for just over that price point.
