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.

I have not noticed an odor on the mattress. I'm hoping that it was a fluke for that particular reviewer. I recommend submitting a comment directly to the reviewer and asking for an update...

No, ours didn't have any smell to them. My mother in law would notice that kind of thing too. Maybe you got a wrong batch? :o( That's terrible though.

No Linda it did not smell like moth balls or have any other strange odors. I have been using the blanket often and all I can say is so far so good.I hope this helps you.

Not sure what smell people were referring to. Ours did not have any unusual odor. Kind of new leather smell for a very short period of time.They are in my son's bedroom, so somewhat of a confined space and we can't smell anything.

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

I don't think that it smells at all. I don't remember it being smelly when it was new either.

Ours smelled TERRIBLE. It was a very moldy smell. There was no wet film though. We've had ours for a little over 2 months. We thought airing it out would help. While the odor is not as noticeable as it was originally(you could smell it upon entering the room!), it's still there. I smell it when I sit on it, and the smell transfers to items touching it (blankets, clothes, etc). Yuck!

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 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.

I have not used my warmer as it had a hot smell to it that never seemed to go away.

I don't recall there being any smell and I have a problem with chemical odor. Although I don't use it often, this has been a useful spare bed for me. In my experience, none of these inflatable options can survive constant use.

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!!

I don't smell anything after a day or so. It was a plastic smell to begin with, but nothing now, we have had ours for over a year. I have 3 of them. I finally learned to put down paper towel and then either the bedding or cloth and it is so much easier to clean!

Not sure, maybe it's old? Mine did not and doesn't smell bad now. Good luck.

I have never noticed a smell in ours. We did wash it though. Perhaps that made the difference.

It has a brand new odor. But why would u think a new mattress would have an odor
