A left S-set A, S a monoid, is called (weakly) flat if the functor - \(\otimes A\) preserves all embeddings of right S-sets (right ideals of S into S). S is (weakly) left absolutely flat if all left S-sets are (weakly) flat. Let \(T_ X\) be the full transformation monoid on a set X. It is proved that \(T_ X\) is weakly absolutely flat iff X is finite. If S is a chain-based right regular band then every cyclic left S-set is flat iff S has the lower bound condition for pairs (i.e. every pair of elements of \(S_{\beta}\) has a lower bound in \(S_{\alpha}\) whenever \(\alpha <\beta\), where \(\alpha\), \(\beta\) belong to the structure chain of \(S=\cup_{\gamma}S_{\gamma})\). A not absolutely flat monoid S, for which all cyclic S-sets are flat, is presented.
