I had a similar problem. It endend up being that the recycler was not the problem. Check that your CardView item measurements translate to something like this:

If you're not using CardView, ensure that the element you use in your Adapter for the view has android:layout_height="wrap_content" and not match_parent.

If that fails to work, you can add another attribute setting the minHeight or maxHeight for the view item.
