Laearis Purple Washable Indoor-Outdoor Rug

Details at a Glance

UV-stabilized polyester holds purple vibrancy under direct sun on decks and patios, while the flat weave construction dries quickly after rain or hosing off. The Laearis Purple Washable Indoor-Outdoor Rug is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. The non-skid latex backing keeps the rug secure on tile, hardwood, or outdoor concrete without additional padding.

Will UV-Stabilized Polyester Fade in Full Sun?

It won't. UV-stabilized polyester resists color loss under direct sunlight for multiple seasons without the chalky fade cotton or natural fibers develop. The purple tones in this rug hold up on south-facing decks and patios where unprotected fabrics bleach out within months. Polyester also sheds moisture instead of absorbing it, so rain doesn't cause mildew or rot the way wool or jute would in humid climates.

Can You Machine Wash an Outdoor Rug?

You can with this one. Wash it in cold water on a gentle cycle with mild detergent, then lay flat to dry -- the thin 0.13-inch profile dries quickly without warping. The flat weave construction doesn't trap dirt the way looped pile does, so most spills rinse out completely. Washing every four to six weeks keeps it looking new without professional cleaning costs, and the polyester fibers don't degrade over repeated wash cycles.

How Do I Store It Over Winter?

Roll it loosely and store it in a dry garage or shed once it's fully dry. The polyester won't mildew if you put it away damp, but letting it air out first prevents any musty smell. If you leave it outside under a covered patio all winter, it'll handle rain and cold without damage -- just shake off snow and let it dry between storms.

Where Does This Work Best on a Patio or in a Dining Room?

The ultra-thin profile fits under doors and furniture legs without catching, so it works in entryways, under outdoor accent chairs, or beneath a dining table on a covered patio. The 9 ft. x 12 ft. size fits under all furniture legs in a standard living room seating arrangement, while the 5 ft. x 7 ft. 6 in. option suits small entryways or beside an outdoor sofa. The non-skid backing grips concrete, tile, and hardwood without bunching in high-traffic doorways. Pair it with weather-resistant accessories or layer it over larger outdoor rugs to define a seating zone.
