Homebase slashes price on coffee table and shoppers are calling it a 'real bargain'

One savvy Homebase customer shared details online of a piece of furniture that had its price dramatically reduced by the retailer, and most shoppers agree that it is a "bargain".

The home and garden chain is selling its grey Diva Coffee Table for the price of £45 — while it was originally available for £175.

According to Homebase's website, the coffee table "features a delightful dove grey tone combined with a warm oak-effect top".

The product description continues: "There's a wonderful mix of classic and contemporary features in this table. The cornice and plinth-like base along with the cup handles keep things traditional whilst the grey finish offers a modern twist on that traditional two-tone look."

The table also features a shelf for books and magazines and flip-down door to conceal clutter.

Sharing details on the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK Facebook group, the shopper who noticed the discount wrote: "Picked up my Homebase bargain last night! £45 reduced from £175 and its massive!

"So much storage as well, both sides are the same. Comes flat packed so took a little while to make but so worth it."

Before long, the post had attracted almost 2,000 likes and more than 340 comments from fellow bargain hunters sharing their thoughts.

One user said: "Thanks for this! Just ordered one as redoing our front room."

A second wrote: "I have this coffee table. It’s amazing! That’s a bargain"

"Well done it’s beautiful.. real bargain," a third stated.

"Just managed to order one, just what I was looking for thanks," another shared.

A fifth commented: "Thanks for this! Just ordered one as redoing our front room."

"That's really nice," a sixth simply said.

"Oh that’s lovely fab find," posted a seventh.

However, not everyone who bought the coffee table was fully happy with their purchase.

One warned: "I have this furniture range and I love it! The tops are easily damaged tho so be careful".

A second commented: "Don't order this range I just returned the full range it damages so easy. It's not worth the money."

Another replied: "I agree, my first dining table came damaged and the second one did too. Wouldn’t waste my money".
