Aldi’s new £20 outdoor rugs are here to add the finishing touches to your garden
Inject some character into your outdoor space
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Aldi is your one-stop-shop for sprucing up your garden in time for summer, and it’s sell-out garden range is back (and better than ever) for 2022.
Helping you make the most out of your outdoor space, the budget supermarket is selling everything from hanging egg chairs and rattan furniture sets, to pizza ovens and patio heaters.
And now – fresh off the relaunch of its sell-out £40 pizza oven barbecue – Aldi has added two new decorative rugs to its Special Buys aisle.
Upholstering your outdoor area is a simple yet oh-so-effective way to add some character to your space. Unlike indoor designs, the material for outdoor rugs tends to be polypropylene – a waterproof and durable fabric that can be manufactured to award it that all-important textured look and feel.
Costing just £19.99, Aldi’s limited range of outdoor rugs are made from exactly that. And best of all, the pair are a fraction of the cost of most designs on the market. Here’s everything you need to know.

Aldi extra large leaf grey and white rug: £19.99, Aldi.co.uk
Perfect for adding the finishing touches to your garden or patio, Aldi’s extra large rug will fit right into your outdoor space with its palm leaf design. Measuring a generous 160 x 230cm in size, the rug is made from polypropylene – meaning it’s hardwearing and weatherproof. It boasts a similar nature-themed print to the Joe Browns design (£65, Joebrowns.co.uk) that took the crown in our round-up of the best outdoor rugs, but you’ll save £45 when picking up Aldi’s affordable alternative.
Aldi extra large spline grey and white rug: £19.99, Aldi.co.uk
For those after a more muted design, Aldi has also dropped its large outdoor rug in a grey-hued geometric print. While it wouldn’t look out of place in a luxury home interiors magazine, the large polypropylene rug – 160cm x 230cm – costs just £20, making it a stylish and affordable addition to your patio or garden.
