Our area rug's precise pattern of small diamond shapes arranged in horizontal stripes offers a modern, transitional look that will enhance any space. Its geometric design is UV stabilized, perfect for use inside or out, ultra-thin for a contemporary fit, and machine-washable, making it a favored choice for active families, including those with pets. All rugs exposed to long periods of intense and direct sunlight can experience loss of color over time. Our rugs perform best in covered outdoor areas and uncovered areas with lower hours of direct sunlight. The ultra thin profile allows for fast drying after rainfall or outdoor cleaning. Larger rug sizes may not fit into a residential washing machine. They may be washed in a commercial size washing machine or hosed-off outside with mild soap and water. Air-dry, do not machine dry. Each of our rugs is designed with a built-in non-skid backing for immediate use, yet for added cushioning or in high-traffic areas, you might consider pairing it with an additional rug pad for extra stability and comfort.
