Lidia Ivory Washable Indoor-Outdoor Rug

Details at a Glance

UV-stabilized polyester holds color on sun-soaked decks and patios where cheaper outdoor rugs bleach to unrecognizable pastels within a season. The Lidia Ivory Washable Indoor-Outdoor Rug is a machine-washable traditional medallion rug available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. It's built for the patio but looks right in the dining room, so you can shift it between spaces without compromising either.

Will the Ivory Color Fade in Full Sun?

It's UV stabilized, which means the polyester fibers resist the kind of photodegradation that fades untreated rugs after one summer. You'll see the same rich ivory tone after months of direct exposure that you did the day you unrolled it. The flat-weave construction doesn't trap dirt or moisture against the fibers, so UV damage has less to compound with -- just color that stays put through the season.

Can This Get Wet and Actually Be Washed at Home?

Yes, throw it in a standard washing machine on cold with mild detergent. Polyester dries fast once it's out, so you're not waiting days for it to stop dripping. Rain, spills, pet accidents -- they rinse out instead of setting in the way they do with natural fibers. The non-skid polyester backing goes through the wash too, so you're not peeling off a separate pad or dealing with adhesive breakdown after repeated cycles.

Does It Need to Come Inside for Winter?

It can stay out year-round if drainage is good -- polyester won't rot or mildew the way jute or cotton does. If snow piles on top of it or ice forms underneath, the fibers themselves are fine, but you'll want to shake it out once things thaw to clear any debris. Bringing it in and washing it before storage is the cleanest move, and at 5 pounds it's easy to roll up and tuck away if you'd rather not leave anything on the deck all winter.

Where Does This Work Best -- Indoors or Out?

Anywhere you need a traditional medallion pattern that can handle moisture and UV without a second thought. It pairs well with teak or metal pieces in outdoor accent chairs collections, grounds conversation areas on covered patios, and anchors entryways where wet shoes track in regularly. The 0.125-inch profile clears door thresholds without bunching, so it moves between your dining room and the deck as easily as you do. If you're layering textures, browse outdoor accessories and outdoor wall art to tie the space together, or see Designing Your Dream Outdoor Living Space for layout ideas.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can an outdoor rug get wet?

Yes -- this one's built for it. Polyester sheds water quickly and won't hold moisture against the backing, so rain and hose rinses dry without mold or mildew forming.

How do I clean an outdoor rug?

Wash it in a standard machine on cold with mild detergent, then air-dry flat or hang it. For spot cleaning between washes, hose it down and scrub with a soft brush.

Can this stay outside all year?

It can if your deck drains well and you shake off snow or debris periodically. The material won't degrade, but washing and storing it over winter keeps it cleanest.

Will this slip on a wood deck?

The non-skid polyester backing grips both hard indoor floors and outdoor decking without needing a separate pad. It stays put under furniture and foot traffic.

Is this safe for pets?

Yes -- it's stain and odor resistant, and pet hair doesn't embed in the flat weave the way it does in shag or high-pile rugs. Accidents wash out completely.

Does this come fully finished or do I need to treat it?

It arrives ready to use -- UV stabilization and stain resistance are already built into the fibers. Free curbside delivery to the continental USA; setup is on you but there's nothing to assemble.
