How was the scent of the mattress when taking it out of the box?

We had no issues with any scent. It did take a few days to fully expand at the corners, but we're very happy with it, especially for the price. It's a guest bed for us and so far it's been received very well.

Mine smells like I would expect new furniture to smell. No issues storing my blankets in here :)

I can just tell you that my mattress looks new and smells great. My toddler has peed and sweated on it heavily yet no odor is left behind. It is not noisy or crackly. As thin as it is it works well however my mattress feels best without it. It is a firm memory foam mattress.

It smelled just fine. I put a pillow protector on it, so it is not absorbing any odors.

As far as I noticed, no it's not. It didn't arrive with any kind of noticeable or significant smell like most of the foam mattresses all seem to have. But I'm a guy and we tend to not notice things, so take that with a grain of salt.

Yes that is what I did. There wasn't an odor but the mattress was a little crooked because it hadn't fully expanded.

The twin mattress is big enough for an adult, and possibly a couple of cats. I was fortunate enough to not notice the smell that some have spoken. The unit is pretty heavy to move, so account for that when setting up to clean around. My vacuum cleaner handle just barely fits between the wall & vacuuming under the bed.

It is brand new and freshly painted so of course it will smell like new paint when you take it out of the box. Ours arrived last week and we took it out of the box. The smell is already gone. It is gorgeous and we couldn't be happier with it so far. I will post another update after our baby is born and we start using it...

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.

honestly, there was a smell open opening it but I left it for 3 days while on vacation. when I returned I did not notice any lingering odor. I presume they are talking about the chemical odor attached but it usually dissipates....I live in Florida so I have the air on 24/7 and ceiling fans going. I much prefer this mattress to the coil spring I got rid of.

I own 3 other temper-pedic like mattresses besides this latest one. The only smell I noticed is on initial unpacking...something chemical like, that quickly dissipated. I think it is probably a formaldehyde-like smell associated with many synthetic products, including carpets. Probably. for saftey's sake, the windows should be opened and the room aired out for the first 24 hours after unpacking.

No smell whatsoever. It's a fantastic mattress. Clean, comfortable, lightweight.

I don't remember much of a smell at all.... I had a friend do it for me in our guest bedroom

I have not noticed an odor on the mattress. I'm hoping that it was a fluke for that particular reviewer. I recommend submitting a comment directly to the reviewer and asking for an update...

No I did not notice a smell. Plus this mattress is made out of non toxic materials. It's been a great mattress for my son. The only issue we had is once he was a little older it got uncomfortable for him to sleep because it is so firm. He started waking up many times a night. I bought an organic mattress pad and he has slept comfortably on it until he was 3 and moved to a big bed. I plan to buy another one of these for my second son too so would recommend this mattress to others.

Slight odor when first opened. Aired it out a few hours and it was fine. Good mattress for the price.
