Emalisse Brown Washable Indoor-Outdoor Rug

Details at a Glance

Machine-washable polyester lets you hose down or toss this rug in the washer after muddy paws or spilled drinks without worrying about mold or discoloration. The Emalissa brown washable indoor-outdoor rug is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. UV-stabilized fibers hold the vintage medallion pattern sharp under covered patio sun or sunroom glare.

How Well Does UV-Stabilized Polyester Handle Rain and Sun?

Polyester built with UV stabilization resists the color fade and fiber breakdown that direct sun causes on untreated synthetics. This rug dries fast after a downpour or hose-off -- flat weave construction sheds water instead of holding it the way pile rugs do, so you won't get that sour mildew smell in humid climates. The brown tones stay consistent across seasons on a covered patio, deck, or sunroom where the rug sees bright light but stays dry most of the time.

Do You Have to Bring It Inside for Winter?

You can leave it out on a covered patio year-round, but you'll extend its life if you store it once temperatures drop and snow or ice arrives. Roll it up after a final wash, let it air-dry completely, then keep it in a shed or garage. If you're using it indoors -- kitchen, dining room, bathroom -- it stays down through every season with no special care beyond regular washing.

Where Does This Work Best on a Patio or Deck?

The 5 ft. x 7 ft. 6 in. and 8 ft. x 8 ft. sizes anchor bistro sets or four-chair dining tables on covered patios, with enough room for chairs to pull out without catching on edges. The 2 ft. 6 in. x 3 ft. 10 in. accent size fits in front of an outdoor sink or grill station where spills are constant, and the ultra-thin profile won't trip you when you're carrying a tray. Pair it with pieces from our outdoor accent chairs collection or layer with planters from outdoor accessories for a finished look. The brown medallion border also works indoors under dining tables or in entryways where you need something you can wash weekly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this rug get wet?

Yes -- polyester flat weave sheds rain and dries within hours, and you can hose it down or machine wash it without damage.

How do I clean this rug?

Toss it in a standard washer with cold water and mild detergent, then lay flat or hang to air-dry. Never use high heat or bleach.

Can this stay outside all year?

It can remain on a covered patio year-round, but storing it over winter in freezing climates extends the backing's lifespan.

Will the brown color fade in direct sun?

UV stabilization resists fading on covered patios and sunrooms, but prolonged exposure to full desert or tropical sun will eventually lighten any outdoor fabric.

Does the non-skid backing work on composite decking?

Yes, the backing grips composite, tile, hardwood, and laminate without requiring a separate rug pad.

What's the best size for a dining table that seats six?

Choose the 8 ft. x 10 ft. or 9 ft. x 12 ft. size so the rug extends 24 inches past the chair legs when pulled out, preventing the chairs from catching on the edge.
