Title: get a rolled pad, not a folded one
Review: I bought two of these pads: one 8x10 and one 10x14 (or so). They were billed as "premium" rug pads by a local dealer. The trouble is that they are folded so tightly in their "bag" they actually stretch (apparently permanently). They will not lay flat on a hardwood floor -- even after a week or two. One is under a relatively lightweight handmade rug, but the other is under a very dense and heavy (~ 150 lb) handmade rug; both have "mountains" that don't go away and are a tripping hazard.I have a cheaper pad from a department store rug shop that has been perfect for 10 years (under another rug) -- we brought it home "rolled" and it has been smooth and wrinkle-free from day one. Like this pad, it has a rubber side and a "grippy" side and I wish I had bought more.
