how do you get them to lie flat?

Never been an issue... I store them standing on the long edge next to my cutting board.

I never thought about that. I guess it's that I just naturally tend to put the mat the other face up if the corners stick up. Maybe I haven't had them long enough to see the problem. All I know is that I love them. One possibility is that I keep my knife almost razor sharp and therefore I do not apply a lot of pressure which could over time cause a stretching of the material. I hope this helped.

They are packaged flat. They are stiff, yet flexible enough to allow "cupping" the sheet when transferring diced or chopped veggies. I had my originals for a long time, are great on the knives, and have now replaced them with new ones. I never had any problem with them curling up by themselves, or otherwise in not lying flat. I always hand wash them.

Mine has a sticker on it saying "this side up". It's rough side up, apparently. The bigger question is: how do you get this rolled up thing to lay flat?!

unfold and put heavy items on it for a few days. It comes out completely flat.

Before you fill them with air they do go flat... They work like a bicicle tire

The cross bars on the end of the top have a hinge on one end and a notch on the other end. To fold it flat, just lift up on the top crossbars to un-notch them and it will fold right up. Good luck!

Use the deflate button and roll each side into the middle and then roll up. Not very heavy and fits under a couchHope this helped. Very study and easy

Hi Racquel, not perfectly flat. I ended up not keeping them. Loved the idea, just didn't have enough sound for me. good luck!

They just sit flat on the ground. You can't really adjust or tilt in different directions.

They come flat but all you have to do it pull them apart. The wax square was an issue as we could not get half of ours lit.

I think they should lay flat. Mine did but I still didn't think the quality was very good so I returned it.

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 don't believe it is designed to lay on them, I simply sit on a chair or couch and lean against it without applying to much pressure. Hope that helps

The boxes arrive flat. You have to tape them to use them but that's all. These are not the kind of boxes you just have to fold properly to use.

You have to push the arms down in a certain order. I believe they have instructions on their website. I won't lie though it isn't easy.

They are not truly flat. The bottom is slightly convex. If you tell me your application I may be able to give you a better answer.

It is a fitted table warmer. So for it to lie flat it has to be stretched like a fitted sheet on the table. Actually, it's not my favorite as far as table warmers go. It heats up and has to have body weight on it to transfer heat.

The ropes are adjustable. You could adjust it so they are tilted back and reclined but not to the point where they would be completely laying flat.
