    I moved a few years ago and my matt warped to the point I was going to throw it out. Hubby suggested I try putting it under the mattress on our bed and it worked, good thing it worked since it was March and the sun here isnt that warm in March!

    How funny -- I could see my DH help me like this. However, our temps would not straightening anything.

I saw a comment that indicated to soak it in warm water and vinegar first then lay out - which I can do if need be. Just wondered exactly what you did. :-)

    Very funny reading of how *helpful* our husbands are (NOT!)!!

    Just flopped it out on the concrete. It's flat, now
