The Striped Indoor Outdoor Rug is also available in two colour choices, a grey and white stripe or a blue and white stripe, which are neutral enough to suit any decor whilst still bringing a pop of colour and print. It’s made from weather-resistant polypropylene which is durable and easy to clean, so it can tolerate everyday use. Dunelm does recommend bringing it inside in very adverse weather conditions to help prolong its lifespan, but it’s more than capable of withstanding the rain showers we’ve come to expect even in summer. Although it’s been designed for outdoor use and is great for decking, patios, or balconies, the Striped Indoor Outdoor Rug also ideal for bringing indoors to protect the flooring in high traffic areas. You can place it anywhere, but it’s particularly well suited to conservatories, porches or utility rooms, or even in the kitchen where you want something that’s easy to wipe clean. If you’re looking for an absolute bargain, OHS has slashed the price of its 120cm x 170cm Vintage Stripe Outdoor Rug in Chocolate/Cream from £12 down to just £3.50, making it ideal for brightening up your garden on a tight budget. You could also head to Dusk, where the Hanna Flatweave Geo Contrast Indoor/ Outdoor Rug – which is also 120cm x 170cm – is £45 and comes in a neutral beige colourway. But Dunelm shoppers have been racing to snap up the Striped Indoor Outdoor Rug for its combination of style and affordability. It’s received a 4.7 star rating from shoppers with almost exclusively 5 star ratings from shoppers. One wrote: “Great rug. I bought the small one for outside and loved it so much that I bought another small one for my conservatory and a large one for my lounge. Good quality and stains wipe off well.” With a second reviewer saying: “Bought for the patio, using in the living room. Excellent.” A third added: “Great outdoor rug. Made from hardwearing material - is a great colour and looks expensive!” There are only two reviews of the Striped Indoor Outdoor Rug which aren’t five star. One is a four star one which says: “Seems to be a product to satisfy our needs but not yet in use.” The other is a one star one which reads: “This was fine until it rained. It was impossible to dry. I couldn't leave it outside, I couldn't walk on it because it was just sodden. After a few days of hanging it outside (it weighed a ton with all that water) it was dry enough to move and it's now finishing off in the shed. I'll either take it to the dump or try to sell it cheap on Marketplace. I don't think it's suitable for outside at all. It needs to be under some sort of roof where it won't get wet, like a veranda or something. I had it on the patio. Disaster.” But others absolutely loved the Striped Indoor Outdoor Rug, writing: “This is such a great price for this rug, there’s no way anyone thinks it was £35, worth every penny looks amazing and I’m sure will wear well, it’s a lovely thick rug won’t blow up in the wind and is a fabulous colour 5 stars from me!”
