Due to the recent news of garden furniture and outdoor toys shortages expected over the summer, many shoppers are turning to Amazon to furnish and upgrade their gardens.

The home insurance experts at money.co.uk were intrigued to investigate if prices on Amazon have increased due to an influx of sales and higher product demand.

To do this, money.co.uk compiled a list of Amazon’s best-selling garden products from 10 of the most popular categories. The top 10 products from each garden furniture category were then input into Keepa’s Amazon Price Tracker to see which product saw the biggest increase in price over the last 12 months.

Out of the top 10 products analysed, the Deyard Parasol Cover saw the biggest increase in price over this time with its lowest being reported at £2, and now being sold for £15.99 – an increase of 700%.
