Aldi Has a $10 Version of This Viral Beach Chair (They’re So Compact!)

Summer is officially here, and if you’re in the market for a new beach chair (or beach chair alternative), then you’ve probably seen those foldable reclining mats that fall somewhere between a cushioned beach towel and a standard beach chair. In fact, one of these chairs from the brand SUNNYLiFE has recently gone viral on TikTok.

It’s perfect for people who love to lie out and tan, but still want to sit upright and be involved in the conversation (or enjoy their favorite beverage).

Before you drop $120, though, head to your local Aldi first — they’re currently selling a similar reclining mat chair from the brand Crane for just under $10.

“The 4th of July is right around the corner, and these #ALDIFinds will make a splash at your pool party,” a caption from the official Aldi Instagram account reads.

“I knew y’all were gonna drop these foldable mat chair dupessss,” one person commented, adding, “Ugh love uuuuu.” The Amazing Aldi account also featured them in a video from a recent store visit.

The chair folds up into a simple square shape and comes with a carrying strap and comfy padded pillow. From the picture Aldi posted, it looks like it’s available in orange and a teal blue color, and it even features a small pocket on the back for your beach reads and sunscreen. Best of all, it hardly takes up any room to store in a closet or under your bed once beach season ends.

Grab one of these reclining beach mats from Aldi while they’re in stock and get ready to literally sit back and relax all summer, whether you’re on a beach vacation or just hanging out in your backyard. (And don’t forget to grab some snacks while you’re there — those are important, too!)
