Does this blanket also help reduce the smoky odor from the fireplace? I get an odor from the fireplace when it is not in use.

No: be sure to have the chimney cleaned and checked every year for your family's safety and optimum function. Does the damper fit snug & secure? Flue odor can also result when negative pressure develops in the house sometimes occuring when exhaust fans are operating without sufficient air intake. An HVAC tech can investigate this for you.

I have not washed any blankets with it, but I think it would be great. I love the light cedar smell that it leaves behind.

It does. I have a neighbor that smokes...if I smell it I turn the fan to high and the smell goes away quickly. I used to be a heavy smoker, If you or a family member is a smoker I would keep it running all the time on medium or high, it would help a lot with keeping the smell out of upholstery, furniture clothes etc. have not tested this though.

Directions on the container say, "For open burning fireplaces, this product or Rutland Soot Sweep Soot Remover may be used". That being said, I would want to avoid the fumes as much as possible if it were my open stove.

Mine smells like I would expect new furniture to smell. No issues storing my blankets in here :)

We do not smoke but we have had dogs and it removes the dog smell. Plus we live in a rural area and there is a lot of skunks that get hit on the road near us. and this removes that odor as well. So i would imagine that it would remove smoke odor. Hope that helps.

It's intense at first and it's seriously how your clothes would smell if you were standing next to a bonfire all night. The smell lasted for a few weeks, partly, I think because we're in a small apt and were not really able to let it air out. I did Fabreze the fabric parts and that seemed to help. But it definitely stunk severely at first.

We don't smoke, but it isn't meant to eliminate odors. Yes, the fan is definitely audible (but not distracting) and gets louder the higher you turn it up. It doesn't bother me when I sleep because it is "white" noise.

To be honest my comforter did not have an odor. Based on the reviews I thought it would so I aired it out for a few hours even though I could not detect any smell. Never had a problem and really like this comforter.

We used it in an open room---it heated a living room and kitchen made it very comfortable.. there wasn't any smell till it got close to running out of fuel. We really loved it. Don't know if this will help you if not I can try to give you more info.

Mine did not smell other than the smell of leather and I personally like that smell so guess I'm if no help..but I have heard of people putting charcoal briqiets in things and putting it in an airtight bag for awhile and the briquets absorb the smell..

In my experience, no ionizer can FULLY eliminate that kind of smoke (I am also extremely sensitive to it). However, if the smoke smell is very fresh, it might help quite a bit to clear it up and prevent it from becoming permanent, although it may not fully take care of it. If you are trying to remove the odor from an item or a piece of furniture that has had long-term exposure, it will give only minor relief, although it can help a little under those circumstances. Depending on what you are trying to air out, you might benefit more fully from a full-sized ionizer, although this personal unit comes in handy in areas where you need it to be very portable, and/or you are unable to connect to AC power. (I like having both, according to the needs and circumstances of the moment.)

I never noticed any odor. The directions tell you to lay it out for 4 days before putting in on your bed. That helps it to air out so it doesn't smell.

I can state that it did a great job keeping out drafts on our kitchen door. Saved on our heating bills. Do not know about smoke!!

Literature said it might, so to unroll it and let it air out for 24 hours. I did that in my basement and really didn't smell anything. I use it on my love seat hide-a-bed when company comes and there's no odor. Actually going to order the queen size for my bed to stretch the life of my mattress.

A number of years ago I used it on a mattress from a smoker's home. It took out the smoke smell right away.
