Basi 5x7 Indoor Outdoor Black Patio Rug

Details at a Glance

Hand-woven from UV-stabilized polyester, this rug resists fading in direct sun and dries quickly after rain without trapping moisture that leads to mildew. The Basi 5x7 Indoor Outdoor Black Patio Rug available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping delivers flat-weave construction that sheds water and stands up to heavy foot traffic on decks, patios, and covered porches.

How Does UV-Stabilized Polyester Hold Up in Full Sun and Rain?

The polyester fibers are stabilized during production to resist UV degradation, so the black colorway won't fade gray after a season of midday sun. Flat-weave construction promotes airflow underneath and lets water drain through instead of pooling on the surface, preventing mold and mildew growth even in humid climates. The low-profile design dries in hours after a downpour, and the tone-on-tone woven texture hides dirt between cleanings better than solid-color rugs.

Can This Rug Stay Outside All Year?

Yes, the UV-resistant polyester and flat weave handle freeze-thaw cycles without cracking or warping, so you can leave it out year-round in most climates. That said, rolling it up and storing it in a dry shed or garage over winter extends its life by protecting it from snow load and ice melt. When it's out, hose it off every few weeks to rinse away pollen and dust, spot-clean spills with mild soap and water, then let it air-dry -- no machine washing or dryer needed for this hand-woven piece.

Where Does a 5x7 Rug Work Best on a Patio?

The 5 ft. x 7 ft. footprint anchors a four-person bistro table with 24 inches of clearance on each side for chairs, or it defines a small seating cluster with two outdoor accent chairs and a side table on a balcony. On covered porches, pair it with a compact sofa and coffee table from our broader outdoor rug and furniture collections for a resort-style lounge. The black colorway grounds bright cushions and colorful planters, and the flat weave slides under furniture legs without bunching, making it easy to pair with pieces from our outdoor accessories range.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can an outdoor rug get wet?

Yes, this flat-weave polyester dries quickly after rain and resists mildew because water drains through instead of soaking in.

Will the black color fade in direct sun?

No, UV-stabilized fibers prevent fading and fiber breakdown even under full-day sun exposure.

How do I clean an outdoor rug?

Hose it off with water, spot-clean spills with mild soap, and air-dry flat -- no machine washing or dryer needed.

Can this stay outside all winter?

It handles freeze-thaw cycles, but rolling it up and storing it in a dry space over winter extends its life by protecting it from snow and ice melt.

How much does the 5x7 rug weigh?

23 lbs, light enough to roll up for cleaning or seasonal storage.

Does it need assembly or a rug pad?

No assembly required, and the flat weave grips most deck and patio surfaces without slipping, though a rug pad adds extra cushion on hard concrete.
