How long will this smell last&#xFF1F; I have left the window open for at least 6 hours, but the smell is still pretty bad. Is that normal?

yes, it is normal. It will go away soon, not completely, but we did not find it unpleasant.

I leave mine on all the time. Now if u want just to get rid of a smell then I would say maybe a couple of hours. L love my Prozone

Honestly, there is no way to get the smell other then keeping your windows open and maybe having an air vent. It can smell bad but it won't be harmful if it is being airing out it the window and if you are directly not close to it. Just wear a face mask if you want and keep windows open. Sometimes you can do it outside too. Hope this helps!

I find it hard to believe I purchased the same item as was purchased by the people answering this question. There is a definitely a smell - kind of like a strong plastic smell, which is there even when the unit is not turned on (and just gets stronger when it is). Granted, I've only had this for about 5 days, so hopefully it will go away.

I did have a funny odor...something like oil or plastic when I first got this fan. The smell is gone now...took about a week of use to subside. The longer you leave it on the faster it will dissipate. I only used it at night, and then only on occasion because it is still so cold in NY.....Keep running it and it will go away soon!!!

Run it for twenty or thirty minutes outside - it will burn off the residue that is causing the bad smell - then just bring it in and turn it on. For the most part it works very well.

Mine had no smell at all. The only problem I had was that it was too slick. Everything had a tendency to slide off, including my computer. It's probably varnish that you are smelling. If you live in a place where you can set it outside, you can let it "air out." If not, I suggest that you send it back.

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!

throw it in the dryer with a dryer sheet and it will help with the odor. Doesn't last too long unless you have a sensitive nose.

I feel like it's very low odor. I would open windows for the topcoat though. It is stronger than the stain for sure.

Had mine for about a month now, and no one notices to smell, I can't give a number because I really don't remember how much times I've used this, I hope that helps

Wish I had an answer for you, but mine never smelled. I placed it in the cargo area as soon as I got it and its been there continually since. I have a very sensitive nose and would have noticed an odor. My answer for all unpleasant odors is a fabric dryer sheet or Febreeze if all else fails.

Mine had a very strong odor so I put it in my garage to air out, it has been 4 weeks now and it still smells but not as bad, maybe in another month or two I will be able to use it.

To me, the smell wasn't that bad. I aired it out overnight and didn't smell it anymore. I have my case next to my bedside and it's fine.

I noticed a slight chemical smell when I un-boxed it, but it was gone later that day. I used febreeze and kept my window open to help the process along.

Hi there. Try to run it. When you are not home. Smells really strong. Make sure you open all tje windows and doors when you get home. Good luck

You won't notice any real smell. spray, let it sit, wipe it off and leave the windows down so it can air out. Even if you clean it and then go for a ride, as long as you keep the windows down to let it air out, the smell does not stay long. I rarely notice it myself
