One customer complained about a strong odor, any comments?

I didn't experience any noticeably uncomfortable odor and I'm very sensitive to smells. I didn't intentionally smell it looking for an odor.

That might because it is made of plastic. I bought it one month before my baby's birth, opened the backage and let the pad stay in the air for one month. Then all the smell went away. You could also try to put the pad in the air for few days.

I did notice an odor at all not did my kids or husband. However, I was not "smelling" for one so we may not be sensitive to it. I do know what you mean especially when the box opens.

I just got my new rabbit air, and, so far, I am disappointed by its ability to eliminate odors--and specifically of the perfume or new paint type. I will be in touch with the manufacturer. It seems to be functioning well in other respects, and I am certain that everything is properly installed.

mine had no particular odor but I bought it from an airport shop so maybe it was a while on display and that helped. That is at least what another reviewer suggested. By the way the price there was much lower that the regular price even with tax.

Have never had a Bunn emit any such odor. I'd contact Nunn, there could be something wrong with yours.

Sorry, we never had an odor or any type; if you have one maybe you should return it.

I did notice an odor. Part of it was from the packaging. Part of it was from the materials the bench was made from. However I went ahead and assembled it and after a couple of days I didn't even notice the smell any longer. It had dissipated. Come to think about it the smell is pretty common from products made in China. If you have a very sensitive nose this may or may not be an issue.

I haven't experience this. It seems to be cleanable, and I haven't had any smell problems. I did purchase a small air filtered I installed to help when they have bigger messes.

I never experienced any offensive odor when receiving this product. Perhaps contact the supplier for some input and if necessary, return the product as defective. Maybe a local Honda dealer might be able to advise as well.

No. I didn't detect any strong odor. I even put my clean laundry directly into the cart without compromising the fresh smell.

Wow, thank you so much. I appreciate your input. I am suffering from near-daily headaches at work because of the amount of cologne and perfume in this place. I've tried to talk to HR, but nothing has worked. No one thinks their perfume is bothering anyone and people seem to take direct offense when I mention their perfume gives me a headache.I've been around some of those units that emit ozone and wow, they smell worse than the smell they're trying to cover up.Again, thanks for the input. I really appreciate it. :D

I'm not sure how helpful this is, but we also bought one 6 months ago, I can't remember if it had an odor but if it did it doesn't now. I'd wipe it down if you haven't and leave it in an open space to air out and see how it does.

Yes, the chemical odor is actually ozone being released from the machine. If the odor seems overwhelming then the purifier may be set too high for the square footage of the area it is in. Try backing the purifier down to 750 or to the RCI setting using the purifier minus button on the unit or on the remote. Remember to only use the away setting if there will be no one in the house for the amount of time the automatic timer is set on the away setting. The away mode releases a lot of ozone and it could make you feel dizzy or have a headache. But, the odor is normal. It comes from the square white ozone plate in the back of the unit, which you will see when you perform the maintenance. This is my third machine. Not, because there is anything defective but because my friends keep buying my old ones from me.

Tough question to answer... is this an odor from the silicone material or from being used?

Julie, I think the product smell is very light and not at all unpleasant. Could it be you got an out-of-date or defective product?

I find it hard to believe I purchased the same item as was purchased by the people answering this question. There is a definitely a smell - kind of like a strong plastic smell, which is there even when the unit is not turned on (and just gets stronger when it is). Granted, I've only had this for about 5 days, so hopefully it will go away.

I didn't notice an odor. When you get it, let it sit opened up for a day , if that's a concern.
