Despite it being somewhat damp when it arrived, this is a vitally indispensable volume. Cpt. John Trimmer pulls no punches in tackling some of life's most persistent and vexing problems, such as:

Does my mother remember when/if I was born?

Where are the good scissors?

What is that crud?

If you haven't yet thumbed through at least a few of these outlook-altering pages, you owe it to yourself and those you sort of love to at least consider it.

the smell of the "fragrance" of this stuff is so strong. two stars because the stench of the "fragrance" and the stench of the cat pee faded with time.

GOD AWFUL SMELL!!! Overall, the band work fine for me. However, the biggest problem I have if the SMELL!!  I don't know what is in the material but the item smells like curry and BO.  I use this while playing tennis and honestly, the smell is so distracting!  I've tried washing it using different types of soap/detergent but just can't get ride of the smell.  I sent an email to the seller requesting a replacement but I don't think its going to matter.  Seems like this is a regular annoyance with this product.

Definitely destroys urine odor. However, I'm deducting a star because it is fragranced like a stuffy old lady's powder room. Works well, undesirable fragrance. Couldn't they come up with a fresh scent, perhaps citrus or completely leave out the fragrance?

This product smelled like urine. I thought I was crazy until I read a similar review. PLEASE DONT BUY THIS PRODUCT!!!

These work decently if you're looking for a biodegradable options. Its nice because the pellets will dissolve in water so you can flush cat poop down the toilet even if a few pellets stick to it. The biggest downfall is that there is nothing to stop the smell. The entire room reeks every time my cat uses it and I have to immediately clean it out. Urine doesnt form chunks either so you end up with a strong smell of ammonia. I had to use these initially because the shelter I rescued my cat from used them as well but I recently switched to regular litter which masks the scent much better.

The rubber used for the plunger part is obnoxiously stinky.  There is nothing you can do about the smell (I have tried many things, to no avail).  The functional part of the unit is excellent though.  It's great to be able to hide the plunger in a nice looking container.  Thus, the mixed review of a '2''.  I would think the manufacturer would opt to do something about that odor.  It's toxic.

I like the size, shape, and construction of this pad. Seems to be well made. What I can't understand is why they couldn't make it so it didn't smell. I've been using it for several weeks now, and the smell of the gel portion has not faded. By the end of my work day, my wrist smell like the pad....which is not a nice smell. It isn't an overpowering smell, but definitely noticeable. If it wasn't for the odor, I would rate it at 5 stars. As it is now, I would not purchase it again.

As excited as I was to receive my new mat, I was fairly disappointed with the odor. Of course it's nothing that made me regret my purchase, however, I did have to leave it outside for a while and spray it with an apple cider vinegar/ water/ essential oil mix (as recommended on Gaiam's website).

I would recommend trying to eliminate the smell before taking this to a yoga studio. Upon opening mine, I left it lying on my kitchen floor and the smell consumed my entire house, resulting in me getting a headache. Just a heads up!

Hard to get rid of the urine smell after it's been used a few times, even after scrubbing it.

It's okay. It works. It really does work. It keeps the mosquitoes away. But, I can't stand the smell. Now, I have a completely ridiculous and overactive sense of smell. I can smell an infection from the hall, which is great for a nurse and awful, freaking awful, the rest of the time. This product  smells just like a citronella candle that has a lemon scent added. I was completely bite-free, but I had a headache at the end of a two-hour test period. I'd prefer this over chemicals any day, though, and take a pill for my head. I hung it by the backdoor for use during the summer season. The refills are supposed to last up to a month and it came with an extra one, so that could be up to two bite-free months. Provided the smell doesn't bother you, this product is a nice alternative to chemical sprays.

Seems to work but I think the smell might be giving me a bit of a headache.

We are very dissatisfied with the enclosed litter box.  It is attractive looking, however, urine seeps underneath the litter box onto the bottom of the litter box enclosure.  It now smells of urine. We are no longer able to use it and I have requested a refund.

This product produces a nice colored tan (a little too dark, but still a nice color) that lasts several days.  The issue that I have with the product is the smell.  It is so overwhelming that it is actually nauseating, and it doesn't fade with time.  The product requires that you stay out of the water for 4-8 hours after applying, so it's a difficult wait to be able to jump into the shower to wash the smell away.  If you want a nice fake tan and don't mind stinking to high heaven, then this is your product.  Back to Vita Liberata for me!

Oh my goodness!  The odor!  And when I took out a ruler, less than 2 inches.  I'm leaving this thing in the floor for a couple of days and see it if gets better, but if this terrible odor doesn't go away, I don't think I can stand it!  What is this stuff?  It smells like mouse urine is all over it, ugh!  So far very disappointed but will update in a couple of days!  Seriously gagging right now!

Toxic-glue smell when it's hot, ugh.  Use it anyway.  Turn it off before it really gets a-burnin.  Previously bought another one that looks very similar to this with zero smell, so it's a finishing step that some manufacturers take, or maybe some badly done models get it.  Would be 5 stars if not for the smell - this is an ideal design otherwise.

I have a love/hate relationship with this stuff. The love is because it works really, REALLY well in eliminating limited slip diff chatter. The difference is like night and day after adding it. Because that's its intended use, I'll give it a five star rating. That said...WARNING!

The hate is because of the indescribable smell that accompanies this additive. It literally smells as if Satan's corpse has been rotting in a septic tank outside an IBS research center. It arrives well sealed in two plastic bags, but a family member still had to put the unopened box outside. Don't underestimate its capability to haunt you for days, if not weeks, if you spill ANY of it. I had a couple of drops dribble down my hand and I couldn't get that hand near my face for several days. I had several flashes of what the repercussions of amputating my hand would be. The smell was so bad that it would wake me up if I accidentally got my hand near my pillow at night. To make matters worse, there is absolutely no amount of washing and scrubbing capable of removing this smell. Wear gloves and disposable clothing, put down plastic sheeting, and take great care not to spill it!
