Has the smell and the issues with a lot of them not working been handled? I want to get 70 - and I would like a free sample to test. Can you do that

We've had a very low defect rate on these and they do have a slight smell of plastic. You would have to purchase a bracelet if you'd like to receive one :)

We are not sure about the smell issue you are concerned about. We check every single bracelet before shipping them out.

Hi. Yes. Send me your address and we will send a sample as soon as possible. Thanks

I appreciate where you are coming from. People act like you are crazy or just overly sensitive. I am shopping for a filter for the same odor problem. The building management sent someone over who could not smell anything. I could not smell the original odor over "her perfume". Managed to offend one more person. Hard to work with a headache and itchiness. Anyway, thanks for your question and the reply of D. Cunningham. This has been a tremendous help to me. Think I am going with the rabbit. Good thing the boss is buying.

OK,Dragondancer, I just used the new order I received a couple days ago, and I, frankly, can't tell any difference from the original. I am also,frankly, not sure when the lower VOC regs went into effect. I have some product in an older can, and still, I don't see a difference. It holds well, and if my hair gets messed-up wearing a hat or a strong wind, my hair doesn't have that dirty feel like so many other hair sprays. I'd say you most likely will still be happy with this product, even though they have had to drop the VOC's to the newly approved levels. I know I am glad I can't tell any change, cause I hate that dirty feel. I hope that helped. Good Luck with it.

I have not had this problem but I have not found anything that Fabreeze Laundry Odor Eliminator has not worked on. I hope you give it a try.

I say send it back and request an exchange. Mine just had a new smell and was ok to use immediately.

Colonel Keds makes some very good points. I agree with most everything this person says.So flame all you want folks. He makes good sense. Let the manufacturer have it if they do not support their product faithfully.Whether you have it or not you can still give good insight into what is happening. As long as you stick to the facts of your experience.I want to know the whole story from ordering to receiving to using. Wouldn't you all like that too?

I am a new user to the product and find it really great. With reference to sulfur, I cannot comment because I have no knowledge.Why not take it to a lab and get it tested???

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

I did not detect an odor while I used it. You may have some issues with that particular batch. Probably best to contact the supplier.

I use my test strips a while after I dump in the spa chemicals , say a few days. Everything seems to work fine though it is good to check periodically depending on the frequency of use, I guess.

Mine seemed to smell fine - so I'm not sure what you're experiencing is normal for the manufacturer. I'd consider asking for an exchange to confirm it's not something off on that unit. Just my $0.02 :-)

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.

mine had an odor that disappeared in a few hours. try using some mild soap and water and air dry

I bought the 17005 used and it has been giving off a vomit-like odor since I got it. I installed a new pre-filter so I think the permanent filter must be releasing odors. I wish it was washable, not just vacuum - the smells might come out better. I do not want to drop another $40 for a new filter. That would be almost what I paid for the air cleaner!

the smell still there, but not as strong ... I put the Bounce sheets (the ones you would use when drying clothing in the dryer) in side of the portfolio and hope that the smell would go away sooner or later ... so far, I am not able to use this portfolio and I am out of $50+ dollars ... joy of shop on line.I have been shopping on Amazon for a long time and am always very happy with what I bought ... but lately, things seemed to be a bit off ... Is Amazon "outsourcing" its service ???

Hi Rebecca, my first batch was bad, and they refunded me and the second one was good. It was hassle free. I feel it really help. I hope you have as good experience as I did.
