Sarasota Mist Tan 7'6 x 9'6 Indoor/Outdoor Rug

This rug is specifically designed to withstand the UV rays common in sunny regions like Florida and Texas. The synthetic fibers are fade-resistant, ensuring the mist-tan color and braided pattern remain vibrant even when placed on an uncovered deck or near large indoor windows. To further extend its lifespan in extreme weather, our experts recommend rolling the rug up and storing it during harsh winter months.

Based on our expertise with high-performance synthetic fibers, maintenance is simple and efficient. For routine care, vacuum regularly to remove loose dirt and debris. For a deeper clean, you can hose the rug down with water and a mild detergent, using a soft-bristle brush for any stubborn spots. Always ensure the rug is allowed to dry completely in the sun before placing it back on your floor to prevent moisture buildup underneath.

Absolutely. While it doesn't have the height of a plush carpet, the meticulous braided construction provides a refined texture that enhances coastal and casual decor styles. The low-profile, no-pile design is particularly advantageous for high-traffic indoor areas like mudrooms or kitchens, as it allows doors to swing freely and is easier to clean than higher-pile alternatives.

Polypropylene is an engineered material highly valued for its exceptional durability and resistance to the elements. This rug is crafted to be moisture-proof and resistant to mold and mildew, making it an ideal choice for humid coastal climates or open-air patios. Unlike natural fibers, polypropylene does not absorb water, allowing the rug to dry quickly after rain and maintain its structural integrity in high-traffic entryways or gathering areas.

The 7'6" x 9'6" size is a versatile mid-to-large dimension designed to anchor significant furniture groupings. For an outdoor seating area, it is large enough to ensure the front legs of your sofa and chairs sit comfortably on the rug, creating a unified "room" feel. In a dining context, this size provides ample coverage for a table and chairs, ensuring the chairs remain on the rug even when pulled out for seating.

We highly recommend using a rug pad regardless of the surface. On smooth concrete or tile, a pad provides essential grip to prevent slipping and adds a layer of cushioning. For wooden decks, a breathable rug pad is crucial to facilitate airflow; this prevents moisture from being trapped between the rug and the wood, which can protect your deck from potential rot or staining over time.
