Strong plastic or latex smell - no squeaky noise

This toy also had a strong chemical smell.
And it was much more rigid than I would expect from a squeeze toy.
In addition - it did not make any discernible squeaker noise.

There was a strong chemical smell upon using it. I checked for plastic inside and I Couldn't find any. What the hell? Is this poising me?

This book has such a strong chemical smell (not ink) that we put it away and I tried to air it out. Still smells after putting it outside in the garage open for a few weeks. I have had this happen with books before but not often. Don't know what the smell is (binding glue or plastic?).

It has such a strong plastic/ rubber scent that my dog wants nothing to do with it. We have another of similar size and function- minus the smell, and she loves it.

Smooth mouse pad, and comfortable wrist support. Wrist support is moderately compressible. However, its smells like burnt plastic and a manufacturing company. And the smell is STRONG. I've had it for about a week now, and it's still as pungent as when I first bought it. Hopefully a wash, and few more weeks will resolve. You can smell it well even if you're sitting upright with the mousepad on your desk or keyboard tray--no need to sniff it. I hope it's not toxic...

Strong plastic smell as received from box! Had to set it out in the sun for several days to get rid of the plastic out-gassing as much as possible, disassembled it and washed it thoroughly also. Otherwise works as described.

Excellent product! The bottom of this mousepad smells like hard plastic/rubber, but is not noticeable where I have it placed.  The mouse I use is a Logitech M510 wireless mouse and i do not have noises made by the mousepad when i move the mouse - some people complained about the noise of the mouse moving on the mousepad, but i have no problems with that. Also, the mouse is stable and the mouse does not move on the screen when I leave the mouse on the pad. I do not know if it saves battery life - Only time will tell. I knocked-off one star, because the mousepad tends to move a bit when I move the mouse with my hand.  The bottom of the mousepad has a shiny coating and it slips when I move the mouse. Other than this problem, I have no other complaints with this mousepad. If you are sensitive to harsh smells, DO NOT BUY THIS MOUSEPAD. The package it came in SMELLS of hard plastic/rubber and also the bottom of the mousepad smells too.

It does come with a plastic odor but I used soap and water and let it aired out. Otherwise its a good deal.

Arrived quick and item as expected - a pair of bumpers that fit the Olympic bar. They feel solid and rubbery and true to the weight. I use them for dead lifts and rows and they got a bit of a bounce to them.

As others said, these plates smell like plastic. After opening the package they smell of these plates gave me a headache and needed to be used in an open area. However after a few days they smell goes away.

Haven't tried this yet so will update the review once we actually put it together.

Upon opening the box, there's a very strong smell that smelled just like gasoline.  I expect some VOCs but this was too strong of a smell and too much like gas for me to reasonable allow my child to play with.  Sure it's lead free paint but whatever paint they used, it needs to be off-gassed.

It does kooks nice and sturdy - will just have to air out until the smell goes away and try it then.

This filter emits a strong sweet plastic odor. The odor is apparent if you sniff it with your nose. It is even more apparent if you hold the item in front your nose and sniff while walking forward.

What the heck is that smell, right?

Can anyone recommend a filter that's odor-free, MERV 12 or 13? I'm thinking that it's the electrostatic material that's causing the odor, so a paper filter might be what I need.

Warning sign number 1 - there are only 3 reviews by people who were given the item, no questions, and it says " Natural latex pillow, 100 Percent Ventilated Latex Foam".  It's not 100% natural latex.  It may actually be 100% latex blended with sythenic latex.  Trust me. it smells like memory foam, so if it is 100% not natural latex, it's at least processed witth petrol chemicals so I'd seriosly be worried about what it's off-gassing.  It gave me a headache, and I don't think it's because it provided absolutely no head support.  I've made a committment to go 100% natural latex in my sleeping products, and this ain't it.  As it is not 100% any sort of natural latex, it actually gives quite a bit of impressive cervical support, something that has eluded me in other pillows I've tried which seem to just flatten right out like the cream filling from a doughnut.  The structural issue I have with this pillow is that it supports my neck fantastically, then my head sinks straight thru to the bed.  While I'm on my back, this is wonderful, especially with my head elevated watching tv.  So back sleepers who don't mind possibly breathing in carcinogens for a while (I see no certi-pur certification on the listing), you might be happy.  Side sleepers, especially those with shoulder bursitis and cervical nerve issues like me, get ready for your arm to go to sleep and wake up often with arm nerve pain if you can get past the headache from the off-gassing and actually get to sleep.  I've tried several dunlop and talalay 100% natural latex pillows and this has no "bounce" like those, breathability like talalay, nor "sweet" smell like either.

I got class bottles to do away with plastics but the cap seal is still plastic. That I understand but both the cap seal and specially the neoprene sleeve have a very strong stench. I put the cap in the dishwasher AND both the cap and the sleeve in the washing machine and although it has diminished, the stench is still there.

I love this liner, it is very thick & heavy so it won't blow in on me. Unfortunately, the plastic/chemical smell is very strong. I will give it a few days to dissipate before returning it. If the odor clears up, I will update this review to 5 stars.

Was very happy with the case, handy, perfect size for my Macbook Air 13, nice color, extra front zippered compartment, sturdy and inexpensive. Only problem is it really has a strong bad plastic or rubbery smell. Have tried airing outside, in the dryer with dryer sheets but still smells. I like it enough & it was cheap enough that I am going to try to get rid go the smell even if it ruins the case.

Day 2
After a few more hand washes, soaking it in white vinegar, hot water, & color safe bleach most of the smell is gone. It is much better, still not great but much better.

These have a really slight latex smell (thank the heavens), especially compared to Trojans. My husband and I only use Durex! (And we order the variety fish bowl that has 144--it's cheaper than this 60-pack now that the price has gone up).
