If you mean the seal around the lid. Mine does not smell. Of course I've used mine many times, but I never noticed that before I used it. Maybe try washing in hot soapy water and let it dry and see if it still smells. Good Luck. Deo

We use our cooker all the time. When we're finished, we put the crock pot and lid in the dishwasher. I've never noticed any smell from the rubber seal.

I had no such trouble. The odor what it was...went away quickly...Could be bad tape?

It is really strong smelling. It is being sprayed in a small contained area which compounds the problem. If using it again I would use goggles and a mask when spraying it. It worked really well and is standing up under heavy use.

We did not have an issue. The smell was reminiscent of a "new product smell" that dissipated once it was no longer new. I would imagine that it might be remedied with a cleaning?

there is a smell when it deflates from the stale rubber smell inside. otherwise no.

I don't know because we only did a few rotted window seals. Sorry. It really stinks though and the smell doesn't dissipatefor a few weeks.

We just left the tires sit in the garage for a couple weeks... the smell was mostly gone! Then after using it on a couple walks with our small children, the smell was completely gone. So I think it just takes time to get the 'new rubber' smell gone.

I have installed about 30 of these. No smell on any of them, maybe it was contaminated with the sealant you used.

Yes, it smells like rubber. Over time use rubber smell fade away. It needs to breath. Primo representative were good and accommodating.

Mine didn't smell at all. Possibly an extremely faint rubber smell due to the material it is made of? But it is supper subtle (I am very sensitive to smells and don't really detect anything).

It does initially. In my case, my new bottle smelled like rubber for less than a week and then the smell disappeared as I used it regularly. But its not unbearable super strong rubber stench. well, I'm on to my second one, that says something. :)

Mine smelled really strange and then I realized it was the cilantro smell! Once I identified that, it smelled great. Mine was sealed correctly. Not a fake product.

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

Hi, I have to admit that I didn't notice the rubber smell until your question came up. I just put my nose to it and yes I can smell it. I just used the brush and asked my husband to smell my hair. I asked, does it smell like rubber? He looked at me really weird, I told him don't asked just smell. he said it didn't. I have to admit I love the brush.

Hi Jo,I don't know because out unit does't have those smell.Is it brand new? Maybe that's one of the reasons. Let it work for a while and see how it's gonna happen. If it doesn't change at all, you should send it back soon! Hope this help!

I don't remember ever having a rubber odor, but if it did have one at one time it was small and disappeared quickly

It sounds like you removed the black tape on the sealing strip like I did. If you still have it, replace it or call vacmaster they will replace it.
