Naelain Sky Washable Indoor-Outdoor Rug

Details at a Glance

Polyester outdoor rugs handle the weather problems wool and jute can't -- UV fade, rain soaking through, and stains setting into natural fibers. The Naelain Sky Washable Indoor-Outdoor Rug in sky blue with multi-color accents is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. The ultra-thin flat weave quick-dries after rain or a wash cycle, and UV-stabilized polyester keeps the stained glass pattern from bleaching out on a deck or patio.

Will Polyester Hold Up Outside in Sun and Rain?

Polyester is UV-stabilized, so the sky blue and multi-color pattern won't fade through a summer of direct sun exposure. The synthetic fibers shed water instead of absorbing it like natural materials do, and the flat weave construction drains quickly after rain -- you won't get the mildew problems jute or cotton develop when they stay damp. Polyester also resists staining from spills, pet accidents, and dirt tracked across the rug.

How Do You Clean It -- and Can It Go in a Washing Machine?

You can machine wash this rug in cold water with mild detergent, then air dry it flat or hanging -- never use bleach or fabric softener on polyester. The flat weave is thin enough to fit in a standard washing machine, and it dries faster than a high-pile rug would. If you don't want to wash it, hose it down on a driveway and let it dry in an hour.

Can This Stay Outside All Year?

Polyester handles freeze-thaw cycles and wet winter weather without rotting, but the non-skid backing can crack if it freezes repeatedly while soaked. If you live somewhere with heavy snow or months of freezing rain, roll it up and store it dry over winter. In milder climates with occasional cold snaps, it's fine to leave it out year-round.

Where Does This Rug Work Best on a Patio or Inside?

The 8 ft. x 8 ft. size fits under a 60-inch round dining table on a covered patio, and the 9 ft. x 12 ft. anchors a sectional grouping in a family room where spills happen daily. The non-skid backing grips tile, hardwood, and concrete without a separate rug pad. Pair the bold stained glass pattern with solid-colored pieces from our outdoor accent chairs collection, or layer it with neutral outdoor rugs in adjoining spaces for a cohesive look. It also works indoors in high-traffic areas -- entryways, kitchens, or playrooms -- where you need something that cleans up fast.
