do thes automatically return to flat after being rolled or do they need to be shaped?

These do flatten after being rolled; however, I would suggest placing a heavy flat object over them to speed the process. I rolled mine up and they flattened after about 30-45 min

I have put them in the dishwasher and they come out curled and go flat again no problem. Have never rolled them though. Hope this helps!

I relied on the answers below and ordered this mat. However, mine arrived rolled up, not as tightly rolled as another one I had previously but still not flat. Just so you know.

Mine has always layed completely flat, even when I roll it up for travel, it returns to a perfectly flat shape. I wouldn't recommend trimming it. The material is pretty thick and is more likely to rip apart than cut neatly.

They stay flat. Maybe if you use them a lot and incorrectly wrestle them close, they will get kinked.

Mine was sent to me in a tube. It took a little work getting it flat...a day or so.

It is rolled in to a 1-1/2" dia. tube, which means you have substantial curl that comes out when you roll it in reverse. The trick comes if you want to roll and put back into the tube. If so you need to rubber band or tape it because if you reroll into the tube it is almost impossible to get out as it tightens against the inside of the cardboard roll. I wrote on mine with CD markers which worked well on the laminate.

Mine came flat, so I had to "puff" it out. The pocket tabs won't line up because of the shape is was stored in.

I does better to lay it flat somewhere, but it will roll up and then lay flat again after you pull it out again. The edges will warp some with the rolling.

We roll ours up with the board side out. Then when opened it does lay flat to play. The last 1/2 inch might bend slightly, but we place the draw cards on the edge which helps.

I keep the plastic insert that comes with the board and reroll it onto that each time. If I don't the roll may get smashed Causing folds to form in the mat. Then I'd never get it to lay flat again.

I've had mine for 3 months now & it lays perfectly flat. Its somewhat heavy so I don't see the edges curling up anytime!

I'm sorry, no. Maybe you could check with the original manufacturer? Their website may show it unrolled.

They roll flat but we sent ours back after 1 flight because the front wheels was not working and would cause the bag to pull to the left. They could not send us a new one so they had to refund us our money.

I keep it rolled up in its original box, and yes it stays flat after unrolling, and sticks to the counter with no weights. It is a different material than the traditional pie rolling mats that I have used in the past.

Mine did, but I have heard others say their's came rolled or folded.Luck of the draw????

When unrolled it flattens quickly, although if folded, the crease will take longer if every to flatten. My toddler walks on it without disrupting.

You can bend them about as much as a half circle without breaking them. They are a little persistent and will want to return back to their original shape though but if you can hold them down at the bend you want you should be ok
