The discount retailer says shoppers can create an ‘inviting atmosphere’ with the ‘stylish’ table lamp
B&M shoppers can upgrade their gardens with a ‘stylish’ new lamp for £6. For homeware fans seeking affordable lighting, the discount retailer is often a popular destination. Known for stocking everything from garden lights to indoor fixtures, B&M regularly impresses customers.
Now, shoppers could get a £6 lamp that arguably resembles a pricier version. The store is selling a ‘tropical’ table lamp that customers could compare to a £16.99 Tesco lamp. While both stores are often visited by high street shoppers, B&M has the edge on price.
However, both styles will likely impress shoppers, who could go either way when making their choice. Both Tesco and B&M are offering a black solar-powered lamp with a tropical leaf design. Both designs are suitable for outdoor use, and they are similar in size.
They are not completely identical, though. According to the measurements, the Tesco lamp is slightly taller and has a closed top, unlike the B&M lamp, which has an open top.
Nonetheless, shoppers could see the B&M table lamp as a cheaper alternative to Tesco’s similar version, though shoppers who prefer online delivery might be willing to pay more for convenience. B&M’s lamp is only available in stores, whereas the Tesco lamp is only available for delivery.
Any customers considering the products may wish to compare the product descriptions and images on each retailer’s website. Showcasing the B&M lamp online, the bargain store says: “Illuminate your outdoor entertaining space with the Mason And Jones Solar Powered Tropical Table Lamp. Ideal for creating an inviting atmosphere in your garden, yard, or balcony with a stylish black and gold detailed finish.”
According to B&M, the lamp measures approximately 25.5cm. The retailer says the lamp has a ‘warm white LED colour’ and ‘rechargeable battery included.’
Showcasing the Tesco lamp online, the supermarket says the lamp “features a sleek black metal design adding a stylish, contemporary accent to any outdoor space while offering soft, ambient lighting for relaxing evenings or entertaining guests.”
The product description says: “Rechargeable and freestanding, these garden table lamps outdoor require no cords or installation, making it easy to place them anywhere on tables, balconies, patios, or garden spaces and it does not require a socket, so you can bring light into dark corners.
“Built-in light sensor of the solar table lamp, light sensor on at dusk until dawn, automatically switches on in the dark, when the sensor detects ambient light.” According to Tesco, the lamp is 30cm tall. Tesco adds that the lamp is ‘weather-resistant’ and ‘energy-efficient.’
