what have you done about the chemical odor?

I have not tried to mask or eliminate the "rubbery plastic" smell that the mat had when we first got it. However, after time and use the smell has all but disappeared. Sorry that I couldn't be more help.

I have no problems. Have used these mats for years and the plastic smell out of the box disappears in a few days of air on the appropriate spot in my shower! They are a basic tool in my home.

I've never had much sense of smell and cannot confirm or deny that it has a chemical odor. Sorry. I am still delighted with is cohesion and durability.

I also did not notice the odor, but I would guess that within a short period of time this would disappear. As with most things I did have minor problem with was to place outside for a few days.

To be honest, we haven't noticed any chemical odor. I'm in my late 50's and my ability to smell is not as good as it used to be but my wife has not said anything about a smell. By the way - we both like this product very much.

I wish I could help you concerning the odor. I never opened the one I bought up. It was a replacement for someone in the family. I accidentally Machine WASHED hers and it Ruined it! Don't wash it, take it to the cleaners and ask them is my suggestion.

Just to add to P.Tran's answer, you may try adding a 1/2 tsp of white vinegar in a sink of water for the final rinse to get rid of odor.

i found that it takes about month to get the factory odors out i believe it is the foam that has chemicals in it from making them that is giving off the odor so i sprayed my down with"" refresh ""and that seemed to get rid of scent

That's correct, soaking the item in warm water and baking soda will remove the smell quickly. Thanks for shopping with DGS Novelties.

I'm not sure what the chemical odor is, but it eventually goes away (after a few months!).

wash it out with bleach and use Nok-out. You may have to do it a few times. I sprayed i down good and left it overnight then did it again and again until the smell was pretty well gone

Mine didn't smell at all. I would try hot soapy water or some vinegar and baking soda for the smell. If it doesn't go away amazon may exchange them. Good luck.

What odor? Try washing the chair with a disinfectant and air dry. If that doesn't work, return it.

Mine arrived without any smell. I suggest contacting the manufacturer to ask for advice. Alternatively, try using a white vinegar and water solution to clean it out.

There was a slight odor. It really didnt bother me. Perhaps time or maybe set outside in the fresh air. Good Luck!

ours did not have an odor. Maybe febreeze and leave the door open to air out?

I washed it in my washing machine, let it soak a bit to try to get out the strong rubber odor. Then I let it air dry. It helped a lot!

I just received mine and it also has a terrible chemical odor. So disappointed and won't be able to use if I can't get rid of the odor.

I had no odor from mine at all. If you have examined the interior to make sure nothing is there that shouldn't be, then notify Amazon.
