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.

There must be something wrong with the one you have. I didn't have any varnish smell with mine.

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

If there was, I didn't notice it. We use them for our rentals and I haven't noticed any odors from them since we bought them months ago. If there is an odor, you can just wash it before you use it.

I am unaware of a change. Maybe they are talking of initial smell with you unwrap it? I have had mine for some time now and don't smell anything and my son loves these mats. We build forts with them sometimes or use them on the hard floor as a cushioned place to play. Have had zero issues with smell or anything in regards to these.

I am sorry I won't be much help - my silk comforter did not have any odor! My guess would be that the plastic bag the comforter was packed in probably held in any odors (no telling how long that comforter had been sitting in a warehouse). My suggestion - spread it outside for a day and see if Mother Nature takes care of it for you!

The smell might be that of natural cotton. I do smell that from mine (which we just got) and nothing else.

I have had that "other" type too, and you're correct, they do not smell good! I love this one. It does NOT smell when heated. In addition, you can take the cover off of it and wash it. I hope my answer helps!!

It didn't seem to have any offensive odor, just the usual "new smell" you get when you first buy/open bedding. It was gone quickly and I am very sensitive so I would have noticed . Hope if you buy one it will be the same .

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.

It doesn't have an odor. I don't have the blanket with me but never put wool in the washing machine. I would spot clean or take to dry cleaners. But I've had mine for a few months and it still looks great, even with cats on it constantly.

I don't know!!! Honestly, mine have never had any odor at all. Where do you live? Maybe the warehouse that it is stored in and shipped from has something to do with it. With very damp weather in a wet storage building might create that smell. I have a subscription to the Kleenex, but I am in New York and not once have had such a smell in the tissues.

Mine didn't have the smell, either. When it was brand-new, it had one of those "new" product smell a little but it went away fast.

I think that's actually the smell of wool. We've had ours for a few months and it still has this faint wool smell.

No. I bought 2 for myself and was so happy I bought 2 for my boyfriend and neither order did we notice a smell. I know the smell you speak of because I've bought toppers and a memory foam bed.

I don't remember having this problem. I have had this for over a year and I don't smell the plastic smell. I love this little heater. Works as well as it did the first day we bought it!
