Elowen Gray Washable Indoor-Outdoor Rug

Details at a Glance

UV-stabilized polyester holds color on sun-soaked patios season after season, and the non-skid backing grips concrete or tile without slipping when it gets wet. The Elowen Gray washable rug in 100% polyester is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. Throw it in your washing machine when it collects pollen or pet prints -- no rug-cleaning services required.

How Well Does Polyester Hold Up to Sun and Rain?

Polyester with UV stabilization resists the kind of fade and brittleness you see in untreated fabrics after one summer outdoors. This flat-weave construction dries quickly after rain or hosing, and the stain-resistant surface sheds spills without absorbing them into fibers. You won't see the gray tone bleach out on a south-facing deck, and the material doesn't mildew when it stays damp overnight.

Can You Actually Wash This in a Machine?

Yes -- wash it cold on gentle cycle with mild detergent, then lay it flat or hang it to dry. Never use bleach, fabric softener, or put it in the dryer; air-drying keeps the non-skid backing intact and the weave tight. This eliminates the expense of professional cleaning and lets you refresh the rug whenever pet accidents or muddy shoes leave marks.

Where Does an Ultra-Thin Flat Weave Work Best?

The ultra-thin profile slides under doors and furniture legs without causing obstruction, so it fits under dining chairs that need to slide freely or in front of patio doors that swing inward. Place a 5' x 7'6" or 8' x 10' size in a living room with front sofa legs on the rug, or use the 2'3" x 7'6" runner in a galley kitchen or hallway. The 9' x 12' and 10' x 14' options anchor large outdoor rugs under full dining sets or sectional groupings. Layer with natural teak or wicker pieces from the outdoor accent chairs collection, or pair with metal outdoor accessories for a contemporary patio setup.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can an outdoor rug get wet?

Yes, the flat-weave polyester dries quickly after rain or hosing, and UV stabilization prevents sun damage when the rug stays damp.

How do I clean an outdoor rug?

Hose it down for surface dirt, or machine wash cold on gentle cycle with mild detergent and air-dry flat for deeper cleaning.

Can this stay outside all year?

The polyester and non-skid backing handle moisture and UV exposure year-round, though bringing it in during heavy snow or ice extends its life.

Will the gray color fade in direct sun?

UV stabilization maintains the gray tone season after season, even on south-facing patios with all-day sun exposure.

What size works under a dining table?

Choose an 8' x 10' for rectangular tables to extend 24 inches beyond table edges when chairs are pulled out, or an 8' x 8' for round tables.

Does this rug ship fully assembled?

No assembly is required -- unroll it and place it where you need it; free curbside delivery brings it to your address.
