How do I choose a size when the seating footprint is fixed?
Sizing starts from the surface and the layout, not the product photo. Measure the outer footprint of the furniture, then add clearance so chairs slide back without dropping off the edge; a rug that stops under the front legs reads undersized and wears along one line. Fix the clearance before ordering, since return freight on a bulky roll is the expensive part.
Where should it sit — deck, patio, or open grass?
On a hard, drained surface it stays put. On open grass, plan on corner weight or a wind-rated anchor, or it lifts in the first serious gust, the same way an unweighted tarp does. Never lay one over boards that stay damp: trapped moisture is what damages the deck, not the backing. If you rent, check that drilling anchor hardware into shared decking is permitted before buying any.
How does it handle sun, rain, and snow sitting on it?
Polypropylene and recycled synthetics take UV and rain better than natural fibers; natural fibers stay cooler underfoot but swell and stain when wet. Snow is the real test — anything left under a snowpack sits in meltwater through repeated freeze-thaw. Where snow lingers for months, lift and store it rather than leave it down all winter.
What upkeep does it actually need each season?
Hose it down, then dry it flat and lifted; a rug folded or stacked wet grows mildew, and that smell does not wash out afterward. Re-tension or replace corner weights and anchor hardware every spring, because UV degrades straps and clips faster than the weave. Sweep grit off before it works into the yarn and starts grinding.
Is a cheaper one less expensive over its whole life?
Usually the opposite. The failure mode is fade and frayed edges, not holes: a low-cost rug in full sun plus snow cover gets replaced on a short cycle, while a tighter weave with a proper backing lasts more seasons. Budget storage space and anchor hardware as part of the cost — the listing never shows those. Only buy cheap if you can store it dry and out of sun.
What should I read in the warranty and return terms before ordering?
Read the exclusions line by line: fade, mildew, and wind damage are the carve-outs worth checking on any listing, so confirm the wording for your specific one rather than assuming cover. Then confirm the return window and who pays freight on a bulky roll back. If that term is on you, a wrong size is effectively final.
