How do you get rid of the terrible smell? Or how long doe it take for the smell to eventually go away itself?

With it being a new item, it may take a little while for the smell to go away. You could probably take a very lightly dampened cloth with fabreeze and wipe it down to see if that helps a little.

I bought the pink kitchen and there was no smell at all. Wish I could be more helpful.

The smell goes away after about 5 min. I've never doused anything with it, so if it spills, I'm not sure what to do about that.

I put mine on the high setting. It took about 45 minutes for the smell to go away. It was not that bad.

It will dissipate after some time. I let mine sit outside for a day in fresh air. The odor will fade.

It goes away after some time. Ours no longer smells but it was a few months time before that happened. If you have a garage you could place it in to air it out for awhile or place it outside if you live in a warmer weather state.

i found that it takes about month to get the factory odors out i believe it is the foam that has chemicals in it from making them that is giving off the odor so i sprayed my down with"" refresh ""and that seemed to get rid of scent

I reccomend soaking the item in warm water and baking soda, that is the only thing I have heard of the removes the smell.

Mine didn't smell at all. I would try hot soapy water or some vinegar and baking soda for the smell. If it doesn't go away amazon may exchange them. Good luck.

My chair didn't have an odor after unpacking it. Maybe use an air purifier next to it for a few days. I had to do that with my foam pad for my bed. That really had a bad smell. Hope this helps.....You could probably air it outside for 24 hours too.

Yep, that is a perfect description of the smell, which has existed from day one taking it out of the box. I tried febreeze and sitting it outside in the sun for two days to see if UV rays could kill, and if anything the smell got worse. I finally just threw it away after owning it for about a month. Sorry that doesn't help, but I just wanted you to know you aren't alone!

Hi. I had the same issue with smell. I did not run the machine right away. I took it out and cleaned the filter in Lysol and let it sit for about 30 mins. Then rinsed really well and put it back after it dried completely. There was a slight smell for a few days, but it has gone away. You may want to put it outside or wipe down with baking soda and water just to help get rid of the smell.

The smell does go away. I use this cup sporadically, maybe 1-2 times per week and it went away after maybe 3-4 months. With daily use it will likely be less.

I don't remember how long it had that beginning smell. But I ran mine on high some and low almost all the time, have to make sure the cool button is pushed too. It seemed to clear out but did take several days.

Maybe 10 to 15 minutes as soon as you can catch the smell you need to stop it because the air is ionized enough. You can redo this several time in case of viruses going around...Hope this heps

Think the instructions say something about cleaning it but if not I'd mix a little bleach and water swish it around should help with the smell
