As part of the sale, Wowcher has dropped the price of a 9-Seater Grey Rattan Corner Dining Set - Weather Resistant & Adjustablefrom £1299.99 to £499. The stylish set is made from a metal frame with polyrattan to ensure it is water, UV and mildew resistant.

The 9-seater features a three-seater sofa, a left corner seater, two benches and a rising dining table. This makes it great for entertaining in the summer sun.

However those with smaller spaces may prefer the Compact Natural Corner Sofa Lounger Set for £499 from Dunelm. This set consists of a sofa, chaise and a coffee temple and also has a side shelf.

Shoppers have rated Wowcher quite highly with a 4.3 out of 5 star rating on Trustpilot. Talking about the shopping process, one person said: “Easy process and good deals.” While another added: “It is always a smooth purchase with clear instructions to claim."

Most of the less-positive reviews concern delivery charges, with those being charged separately for each item. The reason for this is that Wowcher is a marketplace, and orders are fulfilled by individual vendors. “The other thing is, when you buy a few items, you have to pay postage for each individual item, which then ends up costing a fortune,” said one affected customer.

Despite it being a near-universal practice across online retail, others have complained that postage isn’t included in the products’ price: “Price initially quoted does not include postage. After having paid for the item, we then have to pay separately for the postage.”

“Amazing offers,” said another customer. One consumer praised the site's discounts: “Purchased from here seven times and will book again from Wowcher. Amazing discount.”
