Is there now a problem with Vellux blankets having an unremovable chemical smell? Our old one never had that.

I did not have a problem with smell from the Westpoint blankets. However, they were very THIN. I have not received my Martex blanket. Hope that is not the case.

I am not sure. I ended up throwing the blanket away. It was stiff and not very comfortable. It wasn't what I expected.

No, not that I noticed. The product itself does not smell. And the warmed towels/clothes also so not smell. Hopefully other people's don't smell either!

I have had two of these mattresses and the smell went away. Do understand that ALL mattresses are made of chemical based materials to some extent hese new foam style mattresses are what is sweeping the world because of the total support and all the features that can be designed into them any more. They adapt to each body shape, weight, and temprature. Old style beds never came close to this.

I wish I could help you concerning the odor. I never opened the one I bought up. It was a replacement for someone in the family. I accidentally Machine WASHED hers and it Ruined it! Don't wash it, take it to the cleaners and ask them is my suggestion.

Not that I am aware of. I have been using this item for years with no problems. Maybe the smell is from the plastic.

I read many reviews that clammed this, I never really had a smell. I did let both the box spring and mattress air out for a couple hours before I put any sheets on it. I bought 2 beds and neither one of them smell. Hope this helped. They are both great beds.

I am unaware of a change. Maybe they are talking of initial smell with you unwrap it? I have had mine for some time now and don't smell anything and my son loves these mats. We build forts with them sometimes or use them on the hard floor as a cushioned place to play. Have had zero issues with smell or anything in regards to these.

Sad to say, I still detect that rubbery smell and I've wondered myself if it will completely leave. I'm not real convinced it will. I've put mine in a light flannel pillowcase and most of the time I'm not aware of the smell now. Makes you worry about fumes, though doesn't it?

No. I bought 2 for myself and was so happy I bought 2 for my boyfriend and neither order did we notice a smell. I know the smell you speak of because I've bought toppers and a memory foam bed.

The smell might be that of natural cotton. I do smell that from mine (which we just got) and nothing else.

No, not at all. I have had the comforter approx 1 year and I love it. It is much less smelly than the down comforters I have bought and I am very sensitive to smell, ask my husband. We are now looking into buying a wool mattress topper and replacing another comforter with wool.

Ours smelled TERRIBLE. It was a very moldy smell. There was no wet film though. We've had ours for a little over 2 months. We thought airing it out would help. While the odor is not as noticeable as it was originally(you could smell it upon entering the room!), it's still there. I smell it when I sit on it, and the smell transfers to items touching it (blankets, clothes, etc). Yuck!

I have not - I've been using the blanket every weekend for years, and never experienced such issues. That could be related to your diet and the blanket could be reacting to that. I would keep the lower settings at your comfort level to help with that as well.

I didn't notice any odor from mine, nor from the one the same I got for my daughter (I helped her put a duvet cover on it). We love ours, - the best duvet I ever owned. It just molds to your body in such a lovely way. Hope you get to enjoy yours. I wouldn't wash it. Hang it out in the shade, outside for awhile.

The blanket was wrapped in plastic. When I opened the plastic, it smelled like a new sweater. The was no offsetting smell, like there sometimes was even with the clean Army blankets I've been issued.

Personally, we had no issues with the chemical smell everyone else reported. There was a faint warehouse smell. Went away within a day. LOVE this couch. Greatest value ever!
