Emberith Gold Washable Indoor-Outdoor Rug

Details at a Glance

UV-stabilized polyester means this rug can sit in full patio sun through the summer without bleaching out, and when it gets muddy you toss it in the washing machine instead of paying for professional cleaning. The Emberith Gold Washable Indoor-Outdoor Rug in gold vertical stripes is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. The ultra-thin 0.08-inch profile slides under doors and furniture without clearance problems, and the non-skid latex backing keeps it flat on tile, wood, or composite decking.

How Does Polyester Hold Up to Rain and Sun Exposure?

UV stabilization locks color into the fiber so direct sunlight won't fade the gold stripes season after season. Polyester sheds water instead of soaking it in, so rain runs off and the rug dries quickly -- that matters in humid climates where a slow-drying rug grows mildew. The flat weave construction lets air move through, speeding evaporation after a storm or a hose-down. You can leave this on a covered porch year-round in most climates, and if it gets dusty or tracked with mud you machine wash it cold and lay it flat to dry.

Do You Need to Store This Over Winter?

If the rug stays dry under a roof it can stay out all year. Snow sitting on the surface won't hurt the polyester, but if your patio gets buried and the rug stays wet for weeks the latex backing can degrade. Hose it off, let it dry completely, roll it up, and store it indoors if you're in a heavy-snow region. In moderate climates where the patio stays mostly dry you can leave it down -- just shake off leaves and give it a rinse in spring.

What Size Works Best on a Patio or Under Furniture?

The 5' x 7'6" size fits under a small dining table for four on a balcony, while the 8' x 10' centers under a sofa and coffee table with about 18 inches extending past the furniture edges. Runners -- the 2'3" x 7'6" -- work along a narrow side yard or poolside walkway. Pair this with seating from our outdoor accent chairs collection or layer it over tile in a sunroom anchored with pieces from outdoor accessories. If you're covering a large open deck the 9' x 12' or 10' x 14' fills the space without looking cramped, and you can hose the whole thing down when pollen season ends.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can an outdoor rug get wet?

Yes -- polyester sheds water and dries quickly, so rain or a spill won't damage it. Just let it air-dry or hose it off and prop it up to drain.

How do I clean an outdoor rug?

Machine wash cold with mild detergent on a gentle cycle, then lay flat or hang to dry. For light dirt hose it down outdoors and let it dry in the sun.

Can this stay outside all year?

It can if it stays dry under a roof or in a moderate climate. In heavy-snow regions where the rug would sit wet for weeks, roll it up and store it indoors over winter.

Will the gold color fade in direct sun?

UV stabilization prevents fading, so the gold vertical stripes hold their color through full sun exposure season after season.

Does the ultra-thin profile feel flimsy?

No -- flat weave polyester is dense and durable even at 0.08 inches thick. The thin profile just means it fits under doors and furniture without creating a tripping hazard.

Is free shipping included?

Yes -- free curbside delivery to the continental USA. The rug ships rolled and ready to lay flat; no assembly needed.
