Love the utility of this rug as an entryway rug. I paired this rug with a Bergen Premium Dual Surface Non-Slip Cushioning Rug Pad (0.30") to add a little extra cushion. Not sure if the flattening issues I'm having have anything to do with that. Rug came rolled with face in--which protects from stains or wear during travel--but even weighing it down, after back rolling for two days, and allowing time to settle and lay flat the rug is still curled. Love everything else about this rug but having a very hard time getting it flat. Going to try ironing it over a towel.
