Is there now a problem with Vellux blankets having an unremovable chemical smell? Our old one never had that.

I did not have a problem with smell from the Westpoint blankets. However, they were very THIN. I have not received my Martex blanket. Hope that is not the case.

I am not sure. I ended up throwing the blanket away. It was stiff and not very comfortable. It wasn't what I expected.

Heya Noah, as with any new rubber-vinyl product, such as a kid's pool or air mattress, there will be some odor upon first opening the package. I did not find any offensive smell, really, but go ahead and inflate it, and let it air for an hour or so, outside if you must.....I just found that mine had a new product, clean smell. So hope that helps. Any chemical smell will subside shortly, in my experience, and it's not even that "bad". I have purchased several of INTEX's mattresses and have been delighted with the products. Best of luck, and enjoy your very well made mattress. kk voicebender.com Heya Noah, as with any new rubber-vinyl product, such as a kid's pool or air mattress, there will be some odor upon first opening the package.

Ours didn't have that odor to it at all. But I would try some kinda heavy detergent. Hope this helps

I know, that smell is disgusting to me, too! I opened it up outside when I got it and I did not notice any nasty smell from it or on my clothes later. One or two reviews I read said that the clotheslines streatched out after using for awhile and they replaced it with line of their choice later. So if this is a bad problem for you you could replace it with the narrow nylon type rope. FYI, Some said they needed to knot the line a little tighter at some point after using for awhile.

What smell? Mine didn't have an unpleasant odor, but I have washed the cover on gentle in our washing machine once with no issues...Not sure you're supposed to do that but I have a small toddler so I went for it.

Mine has no smell now for sure and did not notice any when it came in... But I always wash new stuff anyway....

I've had my mattress for several months, so my memory may be foggy....but I do not remember noticing a smell - certainly not one that lingered.

The blanket was wrapped in plastic. When I opened the plastic, it smelled like a new sweater. The was no offsetting smell, like there sometimes was even with the clean Army blankets I've been issued.

I would suspect there may be an issue with the unit you received, I have had no unusual odors from the one I got. It does get a little warm when used a lot, but no smells.

We have 2 of these heaters and neither one of them had/have any type of smell when being used.

It did have a weird chemical smell when i first used them. I slipped a few dryer sheets in the pillow case and then set them out on my back porch for a few hours. Seemed to fix the problem for me.

Mine doesnt have any smell at all i would try cleaning it with dreft stain remover. As weird as it sounds it is a really good cleaner for stenches (cant say ive ever tried it on that smell) or exchange it. I bet it warmed up somewhere that caused the plastic to smell that way.

My comforter never had any odor at all. I think you better exchange it to another

Dear Emili, I have purchased 3 of these and I have not noticed any smell. Have you tried washing the whole thing and not just the cover? We have washed ours several times and they come back to the same shape they were and fresh as can be.

Mine did not have any smell at all. Not even the scent of the plastic wrap or anything.

Sad to say, I still detect that rubbery smell and I've wondered myself if it will completely leave. I'm not real convinced it will. I've put mine in a light flannel pillowcase and most of the time I'm not aware of the smell now. Makes you worry about fumes, though doesn't it?
