New Funk Firm Achromat Warped

I just got this mat for my SL-1200G and one side is warped. The mat comes with double sided adhesive discs to secure the mat to the platter. However, the adhesive is not able to hold the warped side down. Just wondering if anyone else has had this problem. I purchased it from Music Direct, I will contact them tomorrow.

I have several of the Funk Firm mats and all of mine are perfect.  I have never needed or used the adhesive discs.

One of my favorite mats.

I agree that you really shouldn't use these on top of another mat.

The warps must have something to do with the newer mats?  I have (2) of the 3mm and (2) of the 5mm, all of which are perfectly flat.  I bought these years ago and have never had a problem.

While I don't have a Technics table, I have tried the Achromats on a bunch of different tables.  All with excellent results.

One of my favorite mats...and I'm kind of a "mat"aholic, so I own a lot.
