Naelara Teal Washable Indoor-Outdoor Rug

Details at a Glance

UV-stabilized polyester flat weave handles rain, direct sun, and repeat machine washing without fading or unraveling. The Naelara Teal rug gives you a teal wave pattern that dries fast after a storm and tosses into a standard washer when muddy paws or spilled drinks strike, available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. Non-skid latex backing keeps it flat on tile, hardwood, or concrete without shifting underfoot.

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

UV stabilization built into the polyester fiber slows color fade even under full afternoon sun on a west-facing patio or poolside. Rain and hose spray roll off the flat weave -- the 0.25-inch pile sheds water within an hour so mildew doesn't take hold. Polyester itself resists moisture rot and won't warp when soaked, which makes it practical for uncovered decks or entryways that catch weather when the door swings open.

Can You Really Machine Wash an Outdoor Rug?

Yes -- this rug fits a standard home washing machine for the smaller sizes, or you can hose it down on the driveway and let it air-dry for larger ones. Use cold water and mild detergent in the washer, then hang it or lay it flat to dry; never use the dryer because heat can damage the latex backing. The flat weave dries quickly either way, so you're not waiting days to put it back down.

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

The 8 ft. x 10 ft. size anchors a six-to-eight-person dining table on a covered patio, while the 10 ft. x 14 ft. defines a full seating area around outdoor accent chairs or a sectional. Teal waves pair cleanly with white resin wicker and natural teak in outdoor rug layouts, or use the 5 ft. x 7 ft. 6 in. in a mudroom to catch wet shoes before they reach the hardwood. The non-skid backing grips concrete and wood decking without a pad, and the quarter-inch pile won't trip kids or pets running through.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can an outdoor rug get wet?

Yes -- UV-stabilized polyester sheds rain and hose water without warping, and the flat weave dries within an hour so mildew doesn't form.

How do I clean an outdoor rug?

Machine wash smaller sizes in cold water with mild detergent and air-dry, or hose larger rugs on the driveway and hang them to dry.

Can this stay outside all year?

The rug handles rain and sun year-round, but freezing moisture can crack the latex backing over time -- roll it up and store it indoors if you're in a hard-freeze climate.

Will the teal color fade in direct sun?

UV stabilization slows fading, but all outdoor textiles lighten gradually under constant sunlight -- rotating the rug or placing it in partial shade extends the color life.

How do I keep the rug from sliding on tile?

The non-skid latex backing grips tile, hardwood, and concrete without a separate pad; vacuum or shake out debris so the backing maintains contact with the floor.

Does this rug ship fully assembled?

Rugs require no assembly -- unroll it, place it, and it's ready. Free curbside delivery to the continental USA; white-glove placement is available for an additional fee upon request.
