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.

Mine didn't have any odor either. So there's no problem. Bad odor are usually related with expired items.

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 know, that smell is disgusting to me, too! I opened it up outside when I got it and I did not notice any nasty smell from it or on my clothes later. One or two reviews I read said that the clotheslines streatched out after using for awhile and they replaced it with line of their choice later. So if this is a bad problem for you you could replace it with the narrow nylon type rope. FYI, Some said they needed to knot the line a little tighter at some point after using for awhile.

I've got a good sniffer, and I detect no odor at all. It's nothing but polyester fiber fill (like you might find in a throw pillow) with that kind of papery/plastic outer layer that some mattress pads are made from. If there was any odor back when I first bought it, I would have put it in the dryer on AIR FLUFF or spritzed it with Febreze or hung it on the line for a couple hours.

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.

I think that's actually the smell of wool. We've had ours for a few months and it still has this faint wool smell.

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

To be honest my comforter did not have an odor. Based on the reviews I thought it would so I aired it out for a few hours even though I could not detect any smell. Never had a problem and really like this comforter.

If there was, I didn't notice it. We use them for our rentals and I haven't noticed any odors from them since we bought them months ago. If there is an odor, you can just wash it before you use it.

Yes, we had 2 and both did smell when they first arrived, kind of mixed things in a warehouse. We left them out in the garage for a month or two prior to use them. Later, we did not experience any smell. Or perhaps we were used to it??? Now we do not need them but keep them just for camping. Good luck!

Personally, we had no issues with the chemical smell everyone else reported. There was a faint warehouse smell. Went away within a day. LOVE this couch. Greatest value ever!

My mattress pad never smelled at all! I am sorry that yours does. I am guessing you have washed it and the smell is still there?! I would tell Amazon about it and get them to replace it with another one. NO reason at all for the smell to linger......

I read many reviews that clammed this, I never really had a smell. I did let both the box spring and mattress air out for a couple hours before I put any sheets on it. I bought 2 beds and neither one of them smell. Hope this helped. They are both great beds.

There must be something wrong with the one you have. I didn't have any varnish smell with mine.

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

I don't smell anything after a day or so. It was a plastic smell to begin with, but nothing now, we have had ours for over a year. I have 3 of them. I finally learned to put down paper towel and then either the bedding or cloth and it is so much easier to clean!
