There was a very slight odor the first it was used. I have been very satisfied with mine.

To the best of our knowledge we've never noticed any odor when using it for the first time

Yes, it did have a smell, but it went away very quickly. It has already saved my oven a couple of times. I am so glad to have it.

As I remember (since I bought this item some time ago) it does have a slight smell when you first bake in your oven. I am though, very happy with my purchase.

During initial start up you may detect a slight smell. With continued use this smell should dissipate.

Not especially, just a plastic smell when you first get it. I don't notice a smell anymore

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.

The first couple of times that I used mine, it had a strong smell of burning plastic as well. It has definitely faded over time though.

No, there should be no smell at all after you have hooked up all the lines or canisters.........I say AFTER because when first hooking or unhooking lines/canisters there will be some leakage.........after a certain time (10 min ?) if there is any smell you should check all lines and tanks......if STRONG smell and in confined space you should not use of course but in your situation in a green house I would think that is not so air tight but then like I said you should not have any odor, I have a little buddy set up in my garage with a 20 pound tank and also a big buddy set up at my cabin and neither has any odor at all !

Yes, it does have a smell to it when it first arrives. Since leaving it out of the box and just letting it air out I have no longer noticed the smell.

No. From day one the mat had no oder. I have use it 3-4 times since I bought it and only used a hot damp cloth to wipe clean. I really like this mat!

Yes, it did have a bit of odor when new. I did not notice when odor finally became imperceptible but I know I was noticing it even after a month. Seemed like odor was from adhesive they used.

No, this hide-a-mat did NOT have a smell when I bought it and does NOT have a smell after many uses!! It is very firm and I like it.

I haven't noticed any smell, I'm happy with it. I didn't remove the adhesive though, as I found it doesn't move around until I want it to.

I didn't notice any smell when I first received it and I used it that night.

Mine does not have any obvious smell to it. This was my first time using it so I have nothing else to compare it to.

the plastic wrapping had a "plastic" smell but once off the mattress & allowing the mattress to air out, I did not notice a smell when I first used it.

it has a slight smell when you first use it and then it goes away and you don't smell any order at all

Yes, after a while it does start to smell, I guess when the box can no longer absorb it. We have three cats and I think we change the 2 boxes every three to four months. This may sound like a lot, but cleaning these boxes is so much easier than the plastic boxes that it is worth it. They are sturdy so I use them alone. Just give them a try but don't throw out you old system until you are sure, but I love these boxes.

A slight but normal plastic smell when you first open it up but after my first use it was already lessen. Hope I was helpful
