Can the pad be bent and/or curved. I want to place the mat on a wide window sill that is only15 inches in depth. Can I curl the mat up or down along

The mat is somewhat flexible but does have channels running through it so I am not sure it would bend that much for you and if you do you could damage it. If you did not check I do believe they make smaller ones.

Yes, the mat is pretty flexible. Just do not fold the mat over itself; while it never feels that hot, the heat will collect, and the mat can damn near melt itself.

Can't honestly answer. The mat becomes more pliable as it warms but I don't know for sure if it would hang over the sill very well

I think that I only flexed it 15-20 degrees when installing. I would not put it into service with any kind of real bend in it.

I used it to run around a room, including going around several 90 degree corners. It bent sharp enough that I was happy to install it that way. It probably won't bend with a radius less than 0.5 inch - that's from memory, I am not in the apartment at this time.

Hi. I bought the changing table with a contoured (curved) pad. It is safer. You can always keep the flat one for future reference, when and if the curved one wears away. I have been using the changing table for 15 months now and it has held up great! No complaints. I would recommend this item.

It should be able to be rolled. Folding would create a crease on the edge that might leak. The biggest issue I would see is how to keep it from unrolling. You would most likely have to brace it. I do love this mat though. It holds a ton of water and keeps it off the floor. I've been very impressed as we've had a lot of snow and rain and street gunk. I just squeegee the water out. It's great!

I suppose the mat could be rolled up to allow for the shorter length, but it would be quite difficult (my opinion) to fashion it around a step. This would be a tripping hazard due to the thickness of the mat.

I haven't tested it on curved surface. My dash is slanted and it grips it like a welder's hand.

Is it flexible at all? I want to bend it around a gentle curve, maybe equivalent to a 10-foot diameter circle.

It has a molded ridge all the way around the outer edge and anchors with 2 sided 3M Tape. I don't think you can do much bending with it or expect the tape to hole it in place should you get it bent where you want it.

You could probably bend it to move it out of the way. However, it's a good size sheet...it way be in the way a little.

i can bend. I got a bigger size then I need on accident so I cut it use it in a pillow. It handled rolling and folding of the pillow fine. Hope that helps.

I have it in a "moveable shed" that is 12' X 28' and the rubber mat is awful heavy. I drive a car on it and put 12"x 24" plywood boards under where the wheel stop. I have slid the plywood back by wheel traction. The mat has never moved. The mat is flat at the edges. I bought plastic trim to edge it and that keeps the water inside the mat.

I have never rolled my mat. But, I would think putting it out on a hot concrete surface in the sun for a while would flatten it and you wouldn't have to attach it. (We live in Texas and it gets hot.) If that doesn't work, try small c-clamps. I store my mat behind a bookcase. Linda

it is u shaped.it will bend to fit curved edges. the problem with it is it is only not even a 1/4 inch sides and after it is opened it does not squeeze closed. i can not use it for covering the edge of my stainless steel mud guards. i will probably pitch it.

The pad is too stiff to fold or roll up and put away which I actually prefer. It could be used on a flat surface but there are no sides to it to prevent the child from rolling off of it.

Had no problem with our mat. It also came rolled up in a carton and as I recall it was during cold weather. We just unrolled it and as I recall placed the curled area down until it straightened out and then turned it over the way it should be. This may have taken a day or so, but not as long as you have been dealing with it. Might want to try using a hair dryer that you can direct the heat on to the areas that don't want to lay down???? Would be worth a try. Good luck.

Yes,This has a slight bending ability. But not enough to bend on a curve. Bending might break the seal inside. Contact the manufacturer for these type of questions.
