No odor. My dog loves this bed! It is well made and perfect for my 108 lb dog.

They always mention it will but we have two and neither has had any issues in this area.

The memory form does not have a chemical odor. In fact, I have tried multiple products for my dogs, I have 9, and this product is the best. It's truly waterproof, with no odors and pillow retain shape after use and covers are durable after many washes.

I just received a full mattress and other than a non-offensive and subtle "new" smell while unpacking it did not have any of the unpleasant odor that people have described. Mine came with a cover zippered on it, and I wonder if that might have perhaps reduced any chemical scent?

Initially yes. But that has been the same with every type of memory foam that I have purchased. It comes with instructions that tells you to air it out overnight. It still had a small odor the next day, but after that it was not noticeable. By the time I changed the sheets at the end of the week, it was gone entirely.

When I first recieved the foam pad and lad it out in a Spare room., Yes it did have an odor. After after about 24-48 hours the odor dissappears. I absolutely love my foam and have had it for about a yr.

I recommend the Sleep Innovations Reversible Gel Memory Foam Pillow. It has a foam side and a gel side and is very soft. It also didn't appear to have an odor.

I have not noticed an odor on the mattress. I'm hoping that it was a fluke for that particular reviewer. I recommend submitting a comment directly to the reviewer and asking for an update...

I didn't notice any smell that I can remember. I put it straight on my bed without washing and I don't notice any smell. However, I did put a 4" memory pad underneath and it has a slight rubbery smell, so I really didn't notice and all smells are gone now.

All memory foam pads have a smell at first. Ours aired out and we didn't notice any more smell after the 3rd day. Also, what we smelled wasn't bad or too strong. Still incredibly happy with this purchase. It has not disappointed and is so comfy!

Nope. Strong chemical smell so best to air out several weeks before use. Good size and tucks in closet or under bed easily. Guests say comfortable to sleep on. I would recommend it for price.

I haven't noticed any odor. It has a zip up cover, which I put a pillow case over. Maybe thats why.. Also it does not get hot! I actually sleep on the memory foam side, not the gel side, bc it feels too cool for me. Hope this helps!

It is a cheap foam mattress with chemicals added to make it memory foam, we only used it one night because the smell was so bad from the chemicals. I tried to wash the foam the next day to get rid of the smell - but all the chemicals ran out -what was left was a cheap piece of foam that then got recycled.

It did have a slight odor. More clean, new materials, than chemical, though. The foam is more of pillow filling that was odorless. The entire bed comes apart and is washable if that helps at all.

Hi Ragie, viscoelastic foam or memory foam tends to give off a smell when new. You can let it air out for a day or two, or you can even go ahead and wash it(the whole pillow) if you want to expedite the process. We are constantly using fresh memory foam, and we vacuum seal the pillows to keep shipping costs down which sometimes traps some of the viscoelastic memory foam smell which will disappear.

It still has funky odor. Since the memory foam is naturally made, I wouldnt want it chemically treated to have the odor removed. I sleep soundly - omly wish it was much softer. I have body pillows all around me (recommended by chiropractor), then its perfect.

I have had two of these mattresses and the smell went away. Do understand that ALL mattresses are made of chemical based materials to some extent hese new foam style mattresses are what is sweeping the world because of the total support and all the features that can be designed into them any more. They adapt to each body shape, weight, and temprature. Old style beds never came close to this.

I did not notice an odor. I am happy with my purchase. This is my second pillow like this.
