Aldi Stellar Chair Alternative ?

norm · #1 09-07-2010, 10:03 PM

Hi All,

Saw this on the Aldi Special buys starting 15/7.

Ok, its not a Stellar Chair and I have no idea on how its going to perform or even do the job. But for the price.......

May have to check it out

TS Norm.

What a great find Norm! Beats paying the astronomical (pun intended) prices of a dedicated chair. May have to duck down to Aldi on the weekend.

Thanks, norm. I'll be dropping by the local Aldi store to have a look as well.

Looks like a great cheap alternative Norm - great find! I can just make out something hanging off the cross bar behind the seat as well. Might be an accessory tray

Looks like the only downside to that chair is that the height adjustment would require the removal and relocation of the cross bolt that goes through the back of the seat. For $25 though - what a saving over an astro chair. Definitely worth a look on the 15th.

Thanks, will try to pick one up this week - again, great find.

Might also be good for the ironing

I saw the ad yesterday definately seems like a good alteranative to the one bintel sells,i mean seriously why so much?

Also they have a headtorch which might good for astronomy just paint it red.

Regards orestis

Very funny.....Imagine boxing it back up and giving it to the wife as a pressie.....

, go down like a lead balloon!

But for $25 - at least it won't break the piggy bank. My only concern we're may the spread of the legs and the cross bolts that Floyd mentioned.

Cheer, Norm

Never been to an Aldi store, or checked a catelogue, so will have a browse online.

LOLOLOL The only pink in my house is in the image of Eta Carina that hangs in my lounge. (oh, and the covers to my Jane Austen dvd's

)
My main concern is how small it folds up, if at all.

Stu Ward · #16 10-07-2010, 10:39 AM

It says foldable for easy storage. also in two colours, so we may get a powder blue for us macho types !!!
