Im concerned about the reported persistent smell? How bad is this?

After several weeks, I no longer notice the smell. For awhile, I had this mattress in a totally flat surface. After moving it onto slats, it seemed to aerate faster. And I left my bedroom windows open to facilitate the process.

I received mine as a gift just yesterday. Very strong smell like I had just painted the entire bedroom. This was after the mattress had sat for 2 days to expand in another room in the house. I am hoping that someone can seriously tell me this odor goes away.

I barely noticed it, and any smell dissipated quickly. That said, it's not something I would be all that picky about.

In wondering if it matters who the seller us? I got mine from amazon and had no smell. I am very sensitive to scents.

I also purchased mine from Amazon. I noticed no odors or smells from Day 1.

We could only smell an odor with our nose up against the bed. No odor after two weeks.

I didn't notice any smell from the beginning. I also bought the wood foundation and smelled a little fresh cut wood smell from that for a couple days but none of the "foam"mell others have commented about.

Hi, the one I bought has the same smell. I think that's normal. It does not bother me.

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 haven't experience this. It seems to be cleanable, and I haven't had any smell problems. I did purchase a small air filtered I installed to help when they have bigger messes.

the packaging may contribute to the odor. I am extremely sensitive to synthetic odors. You may not have that problem. Best wishes

Mine had a little odor when arrived. I left it open for a few days then it's gone.

There is a slight odor but as long as you have proper ventilation you should be okay. I would really check with the maker of this product.

I bought this unit about 6 months ago, I use it every other day (6-8 hours at a time). There has never been any smell coming from the unit. I recommend that you exchange it.

It's not bad. It does have an odor that reminds me of industrial grease or lightly like paint remover but not nearly as strong. I would suggest you be in a ventilated area.

I suppose it is like a new car - the "new chair" odor will disappear with time. I did not notice a strange objectionable odor. I was more concerned about the stability and functioning of the chair, which I found to be excellent.

What you're smelling might be ionized air. It has a odd smell that you'll get used right away. Then again it could be plastic and you might have a problem so I'm not sure if you're satisfied with my response. The ionized air smell is a good thing If that is in fact what the smell is

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!

Can't say that I had this experience, but I would not be concerned. Everyone has different sensitivities to smell, but I can tell you I have had mine installed for the past two months, and it is great....would highly recommend this product.

Some reviewers complained about it but I didn't have a problem at all, it smelled "new" when I got it as most things do, I let it sit out for a few hours before I put on bed and never noticed any smell from then on. I was very concerned about smell because it was for my daughter's bed but it was fine.

We do not experience such an odor. I would return if such phenomenon occurred. Sorry about your experience !

I didn't notice any smell with mine and I'm pretty sensitive to odors. I'd recommend letting it air out in a well ventilated place for a few days or weeks until it dissipates.
