Do many of you agree that there was no smell when you unpacked the product? If there was a smell, how long did it last?

There was very little to no smell when I unpacked it. I left it open and let it air out for a day (about 8 hours) before using it. No problems since I bought it 8 months ago.

We unpacked it, put it on the bed, and have slept on it for months. I've never noticed an odor of any kind.

WHAT?!?!? NO SMELL?? i have had this thing for three weeks and i still can't get rid of the horrible, acrid, wretched aroma. I have laundered ALL of my bedclothes--mattress cover, sheets, blanket, spread--repeatedly to try to get rid of it, I can't leave the pillows on the bed during the day because they soak up the disgusting, chemical stench.I want to return it but can't figure out out to package it to send back. I keep hoping it will air out. Awful, awful smell!

I didn't notice any smell but I'd also guess it might have been from the plastic packaging if they smelled anything. Some people are, well, looking for things like this to a degree of neurosis. I just went and cut open a fresh pack and there is no discernible odor.

I noticed a slight chemical smell when I un-boxed it, but it was gone later that day. I used febreeze and kept my window open to help the process along.

it didn't smell but I bought it second hand so I don't know how it is brand new.

I did not detect any odor when I unpacked mine. And I usually have a good sense of smell. One could always spray them with Febreze, if there were to be a slight odor.

I unrolled the topper and left it on the bed for about 2 hours. Most of the odor was gone. Once I put the outlast cover and sheet on I went to bed and smelled nothing. I saw one review where somebody had an ongoing issue with it. But I have had none with this product. Money well spent.

I did not notice the odor and it does not smell now. I know what you are talking about though and have found if you have a product that smells like this leave it in a sealed container for a couple days with a small bowl of baking soda.

I did not. There was no unusual smell from packaging or anything and it doesn't come in contact with your skin.

Hmm, I just went over and sniffed our set and I don't smell anything in particular. I think we've had this since July, so perhaps it's off-gassed since then but I really don't remember the set having a toxic smell when we opened it and started playing with it.

I never noticed any smell to it... a touch of fresh paint smell when first unpacked, which faded quickly, but nothing else....

I always use thus and it should be very light with little to no smell. I would return it if I were you. Do you mind telling us which Seller you bought this from? I just bought a new one myself and it's fine. Just wanna make sure I stay away from whoever you bought from. :-)

I just got mine out to check. I have a pretty good sense of smell and mine had no odor. Sometimes soaking it submersed in vinegar for a few days will clear the smell. Good luck!

Mine didn't have the smell, either. When it was brand-new, it had one of those "new" product smell a little but it went away fast.

didn't notice any bad smells. it could be something they use in packaging but whatever it is, mine did not have the smell.

It didn't smell at all. I forget what it is made of but if you google the brand it will explain and show you what's inside. I am so happy with it!
