The B&Q 2011 Garden Gazebo Range is here! We’ve been eagerly awaiting the launch of the B&Q range. It seems B&Q can predict the weather – launching their new range on one of the best weekends of the year so far.
So without further ado let’s see what B&Q have got for summer 2011.
Introduction
B&Q gazebos are some of the most popular listed on the site. They tend to strike a good balance between quality and price and this year is no exception. B&Q have launched with 5 different gazebo with an all new range for 2011. The Gazebos follow a similar range as last year but with a few changes and as with most goods and services at the moment, seem to be a little more expensive. This year we have a super budget ‘value’ offering, a ‘deluxe’ version, a pop up model, a large ‘party’ gazebo and a steel framed, more permanent offering. Prices vary from £17.00 for the value model up to £99 for the party version – not bad compared to other retailers.
Let’s have a look in more detail:
1. The Cheapest: B&Q 3x2m Gazebo - £17
The B&Q Value Gazebo was one of our bestsellers last year and one of the cheapest models around. The price has risen a few pounds this year however this is still one of the cheapest around priced at £17.
The Gazebo is of standard construction with a white powder coated steel frame and plastic canopy. The gazebo is 2m x 3m which is not huge but would be suitable for a small table or a few chairs.
All things considered at this price, even if you only use it a few times it’s a great buy.
Full Dimensions: (H)2400 x (W)1950 x (D)2950mm
2. A little more for your money: B&Q Deluxe Gazebo – £29
The B&Q Deluxe Gazebo offers a little more than the value model. With one meter extra space the gazebo allows a little more breathing room.
The frame is constructed from powder coated steel and the cover comprises a green fabric cover. Again the gazebo is of a standard construction so you’ll need a couple of people to erect the frame which should take somewhere between 10 and 15 minutes depending on your construction skills.
The Gazebo Retails this year at £29 with all guy ropes and pegs included.
Full dimensions: (H)2550 x (W)3000 x (D)3000mm
3. Easy to erect – B&Q Pop-up Gazbo
This gazebo is the same size as the deluxe model but has one major difference – it ‘pops’ up in a matter of seconds. Basically the gazebos is already together when it arrives in the box and you simply have to open the gazebo out and you’re good to go.
This is great for situations where you don’t have the time or the inclination to mess around with poles and just want to get on and use the gazebo. The frame is again powder coated steel and the canopy is finished in cream.
The Gazebo comes with the added bonus of side panels which can be a real bonus when there are cool breezes which can be blocked out.
The gazebo retails at £89 – a fair step up from the deluxe model, but well worth it if you want something simple.
Full dimensions: (H)2550 x (W)3000 x (D)3000mm
4. The Big One: The B&Q Party Gazebo – £99
This is the big one! Measuring nearly 9 meters across and 3 meters deep this gazebo is almost as large as 3 standard gazebos.
The gazebos is of standard construction so will need a number of people to erect however does include a number of side panels to keep the heat in and the wind out if needed!
Priced at only £99 it’s almost £30 cheaper than last year!
Full dimensions: (H)2660 x (W)8900 x (D)3000mm
