Aldi shoppers praise 'gorgeous' armchair similar to luxury version - but £925 cheaper

If you're looking for chic ways to transform your home without breaking the bank, then Aldi may have exactly what you need.

The popular budget supermarket has gained a legion of fans for its vast range of high quality 'dupes' that are similar to luxury or expensive brands - but without the price-tag.

This time it's an elegant velvet armchair that shoppers are currently gushing over.

The Kirkton House Cream Armchair is part of the iconic 'middle aisle' range - also collectively known by Aldi's devoted followers as SpecialBuys.

Costing just £169.99, one eagle-eyed shopper spotted that it is almost a full £1000 cheaper compared to a similar armchair from designer brand Neptune.

The shopper shared a snap to their Instagram ( @thathomelook) showcasing how Aldi's budget-priced homeware item has a similar design to Neptune's £1,095 version.

A few followers of the Instagram account took to the comments section to thank them for the latest 'dupe' and even said they "preferred Aldi's version."

Exclusively available to buy online only, Aldi's armchair features velvet fabric and tufted arm and back rests for comfort. The supermarket describes their SpecialBuy item as "comfortable and stylish."

And it looks like an army of fans agree, as the SpecialBuy item has received multiple five-star reviews and praise from shoppers on the supermarket's website.

"Looks great. Very good price for an impressive piece of furniture", praised one shopper.

"The most amazing value for money! Just as good as way more expensive ones out there! Comfy and great colour", commented a second happy shopper.

"This is such a bargain and is worth every penny! Looks beautiful in our nursery! It is a similar size to the Next ‘Alfie’ chair but half the price. A lovely soft, cream velour fabric which is comfy and looks much more expensive than it’s price tag!", replied a third shopper.

While a fourth impressed shopper said: "Great product, I love the colour, looks more expensive and better than I expected."

Aldi's £169.99 Kirkton House Cream Armchair is available to buy online only.
