These 14 Outdoor Rugs from Amazon Will Transform Your Patio for Under $100
Backyard oasis, complete!
Believe it or not, but we're right on the cusp of fall, friends. Cooler weather, sunset bonfires, and mornings spent watching the leaves fall are within our near future. Or, we can at least dream that, right? So if you're planning to spend as much time as possible outside for the next few months, it's high time to spruce up your outdoor space. The first order of business? A great outdoor area rug.
Design pros insist that a rug is just as important outdoors as indoors. Even with the perfect outdoor design plans, packed with outdoor furniture, dreamy string lights, and a lush garden of plants, your space will still need a rug to pull it all together. The good news is that outdoor rugs are typically much more affordable than their indoor counterparts, meaning you won't have to drop a small fortune to complete your outdoor oasis. In fact, we found 12 incredible outdoor area rugs on Amazon for less than $100.
What makes an outdoor rug?
Most outdoor rugs are made of durable water-resistant woven fibers (usually plastic). This makes them safe for all weather conditions and surfaces like wood and stone because they don't absorb or hold water.
It also means they're super easy to wipe clean or even spray off with a garden hose. Fab Habitat founders, Suchin, and Kanan Gupta explain, "You'll first want to consider your rug's materials. Some materials are easier to clean than others and require different types of care. For instance, most of our natural fiber rugs, like coir or jute, require different spot cleaning techniques, whereas other materials may require something a bit more in-depth so be sure to double-check what works best for your rug." Beyond basic water resistance, you should lookout for a fade-resistant UV coating that will protect the rug from sun damage.
Safavieh, nuLOOM, and Fab Habitat are some of our favorite outdoor rug brands on Amazon that check all these boxes (Fab Habitat's rugs are also made from upcycled waste and biodegradable fibers instead of the usual plastic). Ahead, these and more of the best outdoor rugs on Amazon.
