It definitely does out of the package. Not after a good airing out though. There was no more smell within a couple weeks.

I don't recall mine having any kind of smell, however, I have read that you may have that smell during the first two or three weeks. If it continues after that then you may have a problem. My guess is that smell will gradually subside over a period of three weeks. Especially if it is continually running 24/7 - which mine is.

Yes. the smell went away rather quickly. I can't remember exactly how long it was, but it could not have been too long. I absolutely hate bad smells in my house, and I would definitely have noticed if the smell stuck around for too long. hth.

I don't notice the smell and I cannot remember if I did even in the beginning. It may be that it is in a large enough space that the smell is diffused or it has just gone away.

I still have a slight smell. I also have air fresheners in the car vents. Try leaving your windows open and moonroof as often as possible weather permitting it definitely helps get rid of the smell

No. I try to clean it daily or every other day and i am good. My apartment is small, so I would definitely be able to smell it. Now she is lazy about covering it up, so i have to help sometimes, but I am very happy I got it.

Didn't notice any smell at all. Maybe its just the new unit smell but it doesn't last. i would take it as a clean air smell.

It has the 'new' smell when first opened. After a few uses the smell goes away.

I have no clue. After a bit the smell does go away, or maybe I have just gotten used to it.

I've never noticed a change in the smell. I'd take it back where I purchased it.

With it being a new item, it may take a little while for the smell to go away. You could probably take a very lightly dampened cloth with fabreeze and wipe it down to see if that helps a little.

I had a smell when I first started using it, but it was a new smell that went away in a day or two. Nothing since then.

It does at first. I had to let it sit out of the cover for a couple of days, and once I did that, it was fine. I can't smell anything now.

I just got my new rabbit air, and, so far, I am disappointed by its ability to eliminate odors--and specifically of the perfume or new paint type. I will be in touch with the manufacturer. It seems to be functioning well in other respects, and I am certain that everything is properly installed.

it's been a while since I first opened it, but I don't remember any strong smell

Other than the smell of "NEWNESS" in the first few days, I have not noticed any other. I have the unit for quite a while now and it doesn't emit any kind of odor.
