Some synthetic leathers smell strong/bad. How's this one? Did it come with the CA prop 65 Warning?

It did not come with a warning at all, and unless you have your ipad in a steamy bathroom you won't smell it at all! I've only ever noticed this leather smelling funky if I've kept it in the restroom while showering. I've not ever noticed a smell even with rain and high humidity where I live.

No strong/bad smell was present. I am not sure if there was a CA prop 65 warning.

It kind of smells leathery, but it's very stiff and it's creased slightly in a few spots after weeks of use..... So, not entirely sure. But for the price does it really matter?! I've gotten compliments on it so I'm happy.

I think it's real leather but not sure. It's really nice. Only thing is it gets scratched easily.

It feels like real leather, but I really don't think it is. It doesn't have the smell like really leather has.

Thanks for your questions. It is not really leather, the fabric is pressure variable cross grain PU leather, so it will a little smell. But only put it under the ventilation one days, the smell will slowly disappear. As for the color, we have black, purple, blue, Apple green, Mint green now. Because this item is hot-selling, some of colors are out of stock. We are stocking up again. Today, all the colors are avaliable, except black. The black will arrive about one week later.

Def not real leather. It's a plasticky shiny material. It's quite stiff too. The packaging doesn't say for sure what it is. And there is no smell.

It seems like real leather to me. If it is not, it is a very effective looking & feeling fake leather. I have previously returned other products that were "bonded leather" that looked and felt fake - this does not feel like that. The leather seems to be very durable, and has softened since I received it. The underside of the flap (and inside) are covered with a felt lining that is stitched and attached to the leather. I have had this for only about 4 months, but I use it almost every day for my insulin pump. If it tears or rips, I will definitely purchase another one of these.

Absolutely! I had placed the Moso bags in each of a pair of leather gloves I had purchased on-line for a few days. It was a very strong, musty smell and I was amazed as to after about 4-5 days the smell was gone.

Yes I think so. Smells like leather, but there is some good imitation stuff out there. I've use it a lot and it has held up well. I had to buy more paper for it. Doesn't come with much. I hope this helps

Mine is "fake leather". But looks good and not the shinny one. Very durable and for sure will last a long time.hope this helps...

We ordered this also, and it came with a terrible chemical smell. Leaving outside all day didn't help dissipate the odor. It's coming from the 'leather' or faux leather at the end of the scope. Can't seem to get any answer from the seller. Beware! I asked my d-i-l to put it away until we know. (purchased as a prop for a young 'pirate'.)

hi, I like your post. I just want to know more about "vinyl". We just got our huge sectional recovered with "faux leather".. aka vinyl. since the denim slipcover was old and the couch was still great! Also, my husband has allergies... and leather or vinyl is easier to keep clean. but the smell is terrible!! I had done a lot of research on the feel and look.. but never heard a thing about the health concerns or SMELL!!! I am encouraged by your post.. but still nervous it may not be safe.. and also. wondering if this smell will EVER go away?!!

Mine never had a really strong odor. There was a slight odor, but not an unpleasant one, for the first week or so but none that I've noticed since then. I think it just needed to air out a little. Now it just smells like leather.

It does have a pretty strong new plastic/leather scent to it at first, but as others have mentioned, it goes away after a few weeks. On another note, I have mine for quite a while now and it still looks brand new, so it holds up really well!

I have to agree with everyone else here, it doesn't feel or act like leather. I have used mine for a while now and I don't think leather would have held up as well. There is no fatigue where the bend is, none. Leather would show wear by now. I think I like it more than I would true leather.
