What is the number at the bottom within the triangle? Mine had number 7, that number was recalled. It smells bad too.

The number 7 in a triangle has to do with recycling. Nalgene no longer uses BPA in their water bottles - it says BPA FREE next to the 7. They have not been recalled, but responding to consumer pressure the company changed the plastic they used for their bottles in 2008-2009. Mine has no odor.

The number 7 is a recycle number and it was recalled because of the BPA issue. The water bottles I received have the number 7, but also have the "BPA Free" marker next to the recycle designation. Mine smells fine - but I do wash it every night.

It has a "7" on the bottom, but Nalgene no longer sells water bottles made with Bisphenol A. Number 7 as a plastic type means any plastic that is not in the first six, so having number 7 on the bottom does not necessarily mean that it contains BPA. They specifically stated that these Nalgene Tritan's are BPA-Free. Mine had no odor upon receiving them, but I still washed them thoroughly.

I noticed it too, I only own it for about a day or two. I will give it a week or two max before returning it. No way I can live with this smell, it smells like brand new plastic x1000.

Mine is fairly new. When first used, I could small a plastic smell, and even after a few months still smell that; but it is not a burning odor. If you smell something burning, I suggest that you don't use it and return it for a replacement.

The one I got off of Amazon didn't smell good at all. In fact I thought it smelled rancid. It wasn't until after my 30 days that I asked a dealer to smell it and she said it was rancid. So since it had been over 30 days, I couldn't return it. Nerium is not suppose to be sold on Amazon etc. The ones they sell are old ones, leftovers, rancid etc. I would suggest you contact the company for a dealer in your area.

How long have you had it? Keep it stored in the dark. If it begins to smell like hot dog water then it's going bad and you need another. The strength changes as it gets older. That's my experience. If it's new. Contact the company where you bought it. They will exchange it for you.

Not sure, maybe it's old? Mine did not and doesn't smell bad now. Good luck.

That triangle is a recycle symbol, the other numbers on the bottom are manufacturing numberslike the 0400, I grow plants, so not too concerned about numbers.

Yes, I posted this question as well and accidentally deleted it I think as I don't see it anymore and five others had said yes, about the same said no. It did for me, I've been running it outside for a few days and it's getting less and less. I'm hopeful to bring it inside again tomorrow. It was rough the first day as my whole house smelled like chemicals.

Sorry can not help, I would say something is wrong with the mat, I have only worked out on mine a dozen times but no issues other than the smell so far

No not yet but then again we don't use it that much. If I was you I would request a replacement unit from the seller or your money back. That smell in most cases is probably toxic and you need to let the seller no that,and if they don't comply I would get AMAZON INVOLVED.

I don't know if the "sulfur based" big label right on the product photo is supposed to warn about the foul smell, but in any case, the smell literally makes me ill. Other people also complained about the smell after I put it on, even just a tiny bit dime-sized drop.

If your smelling plastic burning that's not a good sign. I never had that problem with mine. I would suggest sending back to manufacturer.

I just went and looked at mine. There are some numbers on the bottom, but none indicated as the serial number. I think I'd put the model number too. I give you credit, I never bothered to register mine. If something happened to it, I'd just go buy another one because I love it so much. This last one I bought was a Christmas present for my sister, and she loves her's too! I think I'd list the model number and call it a day.

I don't remember if I noticed anything when I got it, but probably not. I just got up close to mine to see if there's any odor now, but all I smell is the sisal. How annoying for you!

Not sure what that smell is caused from. Didn't have any problem with mine, as far as odor. I'd ask Whirlpool about it. Maybe you can get a replacement. Good luck!!!

Hi, the one I bought has the same smell. I think that's normal. It does not bother me.

I think it is a 7 inside the triangle but there is a 1 outside the triangle.
