Are there chemicals in the hulls?

I don't believe there are chemicals in the hulls. I don't have a great sense of smell, so I probably couldn't smell them if there were, but these are supposed to be 100% organic, so there shouldn't be any chemicals in it.

They have a odd odor to them but I am not sure it is a chemical or just buckwheat smells like that. If you are concerned you should check around for organic buckwheat hulls and pick up a empty buckwheat pillow and fill one for yourself, that will not only give you the right amount of hulls it will also give you the peace of mind. That said I really enjoy my pillow I do not think it is as hard as everyone says, it feels like laying on the beach!

Yes, I contacted the manufacturer & was informed that the hulls have been fumigated upon importation from China.

It was my understanding that this particular brand is "organic," and does not involve chemicals. I really like this pillow. The only draw back is perhaps that it is physically heavy compared to a feather or fiber fill one.

The package is marked: Organic buckwheat hulls. I am very please with them and can highly recommend them as well as the pillows which Amazon is selling. I had purchased them before and like the buckwheat pills. I bought the hulls since my friend wanted more filling. I was fine with them and there was also no getting used the time. They were great right from the start.

I do not really know. However, I have COPD (lung disease) and am very sensitive to odors and chemicals and I have not had any problems with my buckwheat pillow.

No. They are 100% organic. As I have many allergies, I have never had a problem with this pillow or one I bought several years ago. They are great.

I am unaware of any chemicals used on the husks. The product is advertised as 100% organic, which I would take to be free of chemicals. I have taken the husks out of the pillow in order to wash the cover and noticed no odd odors or colors.

The manufacturer says that all materials are 100% organic. I have no indication of any chemicals in the hulls or the pillowcase.

Hi Alyssa. Just looked at the label on my pillow and it said 100% Organic Buckwheat Hulls. I guess that would mean no chemicals but you may still want to check with manufacturer. I love my pillow. It has a zippered case, so I guess you could remove the hulls and wash them or replace them. Interesting. Great Pillow. My daughter uses the smaller version and I am going to order it for hubbie.

I do not remember, however, I have used them in salt water for two seasons with no issues.

They don't appear to be, but the paddle is good quality, not as light as carbon fiber but a good substitute.

There is a warning sticker on the gate, which is regarding installation and mechanical issues. Nothing about chemicals.

Sure. At one time Revell sold the kit as a motorized version. Just weight the hull a bit. The main deck parts are still engineered to be removable ( to get to the batteries in the old motorized kit).

No, I can't answer this -- I purchased the Collinite Liquid for my son who wanted to use it on his boat. Sorry.

Yes, these flower boxes have a "double hull construction" much like a ship. The outer hull can be filled with water, actually quite a bit of water. We installed ours this Spring. The flowers look great, my wife loves it and these are just very well made. You can find cheaper flower boxes, but this one is worth the extra money.

Plastic! They're not brittle like resin and they're not nearly as flexible as the rubbery plastic of Micro Machines, etc. The bases and stands seem to be polycarbonate; the ships themselves are not quite as hard but they are breakable. I hope that helps!

Jaclyn - there is no foam blended with the hulls. They also include extra hulls for the pillow. I am not certain as to whether the cover is made from all organic materials or not.

It is self-contained. I was going to trash it. I do not know toxicity though sorry.

There is BPA free plastic in contact with the water. This is a safe kind of plastic.

Yes. there are molded plastic wheels-very sturdy, fitted into molded impressions at the rear of the boat, the hardware is brass, aluminum, and stainless steel. The boat is very easy for one person to manouver.

Based on my experience with this stuff, it really depends on how much crud is on the hull. If it's light probably one bottle will do. Heavier amount will require repeat applications, so you then might want to get that extra bottle.
