Ysadora Paprika Washable Indoor-Outdoor Rug

Details at a Glance

The polyester fibers in this rug are UV stabilized to hold color through seasons of direct sun, and the flat weave sheds water fast enough to prevent mildew on covered patios or pool decks. The Ysadora Paprika machine-washable outdoor rug is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. You can hose it down after a rainstorm or throw the smaller sizes into a washing machine when tracked-in dirt builds up.

How Well Does UV-Stabilized Polyester Hold Up Outside?

UV stabilizers mixed into the polyester prevent the paprika stripe pattern from bleaching even when the rug sits in full sun for three-plus years. Polyester itself resists moisture -- it won't hold water the way natural fibers do, so it dries in under two hours and won't rot or mildew if you leave it out during a week of rain. The non-skid latex backing grips tile, concrete, and composite decking without trapping water underneath, which is usually where mildew starts on an outdoor rug.

Can You Machine Wash This Rug?

Yes -- the smaller sizes (up to 5 ft. x 7 ft. 6 in.) fit in a standard washing machine on a cold-water cycle, and you air-dry them flat. Larger sizes you hose off on the driveway or patio and let them dry in place; the ultra-thin 0.08-inch profile means there's almost no thickness to hold water. The polyester won't shrink or fade in the wash, and the latex backing stays intact through repeated cycles. You'll want to skip the dryer -- heat can degrade the non-skid backing over time.

Does This Rug Need to Be Stored Over Winter?

Not necessarily. The UV stabilization and water resistance let it stay outside on a covered porch or under an awning year-round without damage. If it's going to sit in standing snow or ice for months, roll it up and store it dry -- the latex backing can crack if it freezes and thaws repeatedly while soaked. For a screened porch or three-season room, you can leave it down. Just shake it out or hose it off in spring if dirt has built up.
