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 wish I could help you concerning the odor. I never opened the one I bought up. It was a replacement for someone in the family. I accidentally Machine WASHED hers and it Ruined it! Don't wash it, take it to the cleaners and ask them is my suggestion.

Sad to say, I still detect that rubbery smell and I've wondered myself if it will completely leave. I'm not real convinced it will. I've put mine in a light flannel pillowcase and most of the time I'm not aware of the smell now. Makes you worry about fumes, though doesn't it?

No, not at all. I have had the comforter approx 1 year and I love it. It is much less smelly than the down comforters I have bought and I am very sensitive to smell, ask my husband. We are now looking into buying a wool mattress topper and replacing another comforter with wool.

No, not that I noticed. The product itself does not smell. And the warmed towels/clothes also so not smell. Hopefully other people's don't smell either!

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.

Tasha, I also cannot confirm if the blanket has been treated. I can say it is the best blanket I have ever had. It had no odor and was very soft and comfortable straight from the package. Sorry I couldn't be of more assistance.

I ordered mine in August, and there were not strange smells. I actually have mine very close to the headboard of my bed now and I have never noticed, even thought about the smell at all.

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.

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.

It has a brand new odor. But why would u think a new mattress would have an odor

No. There is/was no product smell or odor. We were surprised how comfortable this bed was during our recent 2-week trip. A sheet or blanket over the top works great.Just make sure you have an electric pump (110v or car adapter). The battery pump provided was not that good.

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.

I have ordered 2 of these blankets at different times, from 2 different sellers.....the most recent was a couple weeks ago. They appear to be the same, with the exception of the "Italian Officers Blanket" stripes are narrower than on the other. Both are sold as "100% wool", both have a strong mothball smell, although the "Officers Blanket" odor was almost nauseating until I had it dry cleaned. Both are more of an olive drab color than a "rich brown", and I paid about the same price for both. ($3 difference) The "Officer's Blanket" I purchased in Nov '13 impressed me so much during the cold winter, I purchased another in June '14.

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

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
