Product details
A machine-washable rug built for outdoor weather and indoor spills makes life simpler when you're furnishing a patio, kitchen or entryway that sees heavy foot traffic. The Kaelira Blue washable indoor-outdoor rug, available at Sideboards and Things with free shipping, pairs UV-stabilized polyester construction with non-skid latex backing and full machine washability in five sizes from 5' x 7'6" to 10' x 14". An outdoor rug is a flat-weave or low-pile area rug engineered to resist moisture, fading and mildew, letting you soften hard patio surfaces or protect interior floors from muddy paws without sacrificing easy cleanup. The ombre blue gradient adds coastal depth to outdoor rugs and transitional interiors while the ultra-thin profile dries quickly after rain or a hose rinse.

Why Choose a Washable Polyester Rug from Sideboards and Things?
UV-stabilized polyester resists sun fade on covered patios and open decks, and the latex backing grips composite decking, tile and hardwood without adhesive strips or rug pads. The flat weave drains water quickly after a spill or morning dew, so you can hose it clean outdoors or toss it in the washing machine when pet accidents happen indoors. Pair the 8' x 10" size with outdoor accent chairs under a dining table, or anchor a living room seating group with the 9' x 12" to define the conversation zone while protecting floors from tracked-in dirt. Layer this rug beneath outdoor bar and counter tables for easy cleanup after cookouts.
Sizing and Placement Guidance
The 5' x 7'6" works under a small dining table or as an entryway runner, while the 8' x 10" and 9' x 12" sizes anchor living room seating groups with 24 inches of clearance beyond furniture edges. For open-concept great rooms or covered patios, the 10' x 14" provides full-floor coverage without seams. Position any size under a dining table so chairs remain on the rug when pulled out, or center it beneath a coffee table in a living room to soften hardwood and tile. The ultra-thin profile slides easily under doors and furniture legs without bunching.
Care and Maintenance
Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with mild detergent, then lay flat or hang to dry -- tumble drying can shrink the rug and damage the latex backing. For outdoor spills or muddy paw prints, hose the rug clean and let it air-dry on a deck railing or patio furniture. UV-stabilized fibers resist fading season after season, and the flat weave construction withstands foot traffic without matting or crushing.
