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 keep blankets in there, although I guess I didn't do it for the first couple of weeks--only because it wasn't blanket weather at that time. But, I didn't notice any chemical odors.

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.

Mine smells like I would expect new furniture to smell. No issues storing my blankets in here :)

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!!

Not to me. I've bought Ikea comforters for years and have never experienced that problem. I've seen reviews where others have stated that, but Maybe they are sensitive to smells.

I would suspect there may be an issue with the unit you received, I have had no unusual odors from the one I got. It does get a little warm when used a lot, but no smells.

I have had this fore about 2 years now and I cannot remember any chemical smell for it at all, not even when it was new. We have machine washed ours at times, if you want to try to get the smell out. Hope all works out.

I did not. The smell wasn't really strong with ours, still I let it unfold outside and I left it outside all day. We brought it in in the evening, put a sheet on it and absolutely no complaints at all. I use it for my 6 year old son's loft bed. I understand that it will probably need to be be replaced in a few years, but he likes it, it's more comfortable than I thought and I am happy with it, considering it is a very inexpensive mattress. We have had it for 6 or 7 months now and there is no smell to it at all at this point. Hope that helps!

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

You know, that is really strange. Mine was fully expanded within the hour.I just cut open the plastic slowly and let it decompress. It was really quick. I'm afraid you may have a defective one. Also it has been pretty cold, that may have something to do with it. Yeah, ours had no scent at all ,I could'nt be happier. Let me know what happens, I was planning on purchasing another one. Good luck. Manuel

I used our regular mattress cover...it was deep enough and the elastic goes over our mattress and the topper. We have no noticeable smell. Love the topper. How disappointing for you as it is a bigger purchase. Maybe the zippered covers they sell for bedbugs would be less permeable with smells?

What smell? Mine didn't have an unpleasant odor, but I have washed the cover on gentle in our washing machine once with no issues...Not sure you're supposed to do that but I have a small toddler so I went for it.

have been using this product for about 6 months and have never noticed a smell of any kind. I would return the one you have and sure they will replace it for free

Hmm, I just went over and sniffed our set and I don't smell anything in particular. I think we've had this since July, so perhaps it's off-gassed since then but I really don't remember the set having a toxic smell when we opened it and started playing with it.

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.
