Does this back pack have an odor to it? Some of the carriers have a rather unpleasant chemical smell.

I do not recall an unpleasant odor. As soon as I finished inserting the brace that came with the back pack I unzipped the upper and lower mesh flaps. I put the opened back pack on the floor so our Jack Russell could inspect it. She crawled in and took a nap. Based on that I would have to say any odor that may have been present was minor.

Yes, it does have an unpleasant odor when you first take it out of the package, but as it is used out-of-doors, the small gets less and less.

No we love this back pack! Our puppy loves the bike rides, and we love taking him with us

Mine did not have an odor. I still have this backpack and I use it quite frequently and have not had any problems with it. I have used it out in the woods and on 4 different flights. I love it!

When I received it the smell was really bad. I left it out in the sun for a few days and the smell cooked out, a few days later it was gone completely. The bag is really nice with lots of pockets and storage. I would recommend it for price and quality. BB

I'm not sure I understand the question. The back pack is very good quality. It has several storage compartments and reflective ribbon on both sides for night time. Mine doesn't have a green plastic thing.

I don't recall it having an odor, although I don't have the greatest sense of smell! The fabric side is a canvas-like material and I don't remember it having a plastic or chemical smell.

Mine didn't really have a strong odor to it, but it did smell of plastic , but have no fear that goes away pretty quick, it's most likely from the heat of shipping containers and such, after one use mine was good to go, I have four of em and they are all okay now, I hope this helps Vanessa.

It sounds like you have a problem, either with the particular bag having been exposed to something foul, or your idea of what fine leather should smell like. After living with mine for a couple of months now, I am happy with every aspect: Appearance, smell and product utility. Very well made, luxurious bag.

No it does not. Things stay pretty dry inside the packit as well as out side of it. THe product doesnt sweat like some cool packs do.

Other reviews talked of a "strange odor". My bag (that I like very much) had no such odor.

The smell can be a product being new, fresh off the production line type of thing (like that "new car" smell). Mine had a slight smell, not too terrible but it was gone one I did a quick hand wash with a mild shampoo and wiped down the handles with a makeup remover wipe. I also hand washed and air dried the pouch and the smell was gone from that too.

I have not noticed any smell at all. The case doesn't close all the way when the handles are up but that is not anIssue for me.

I have not had that problem, nor has the guy who recommended it to me. I don't put it to aggressive use though. I love it, and its very comfortable to carry on your back while carrying other gear. Highly recommended for cost.

If you make a point to smell it, it still has that odor. But I don't notice it on a daily basis, nor do I notice it when I'm handling it for use. I bought mine in August to give you a sense of the wear on it. The odor has dissipated a little since I bought it, so I assume it will continue doing so over time.

Yes Eric. Over time, a short period too, the smell faded. Now it's the best organizer I have found to date. I look from time-to-time but found this the best size and capacity.

1. I never, ever noticed any "chemical smell". It smelled no different than any brand new case or backpack might smell, there was nothing out of the ordinary about it, nothing bad about its odor, and frankly, had I not opened it up and stuck my face into it I would not have smelled it at all. 2. I've had it a year, it has held up magnificently, and I love it.

Had no smell on mine. How could it smell so bad through a plastic bag, and cardboard box as to offend a ups driver? If it is that bad send it back!

No I did not notice any type of odor from this loveseat....the plastic protective shipping cover may have had a small odor...not the couch
