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.

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.

i really do not know.sometimes the wool is not washed(it should be)since i have not had mine dry cleaned,i do not know that either.my blanket does not smell,other than a wool smell.if you have not had the comforter too long you could exchange or return it.Amazon is good to let you print off a pd return postage form.i returned a pillow some time ago that had a dung odor,because it was not washed!!i could not bear to sleep on it.hope this helps!

We did not have an issue. The smell was reminiscent of a "new product smell" that dissipated once it was no longer new. I would imagine that it might be remedied with a cleaning?

This is my first wool blanket. It doesn't bother me at all. The smell will need to be addressed. I hand washed and hung outside for 2 days. Smell is gone.

I ordered mine in August, and there were not strange smells. I actually have mine very close to the headboard of my bed now and I have never noticed, even thought about the smell at all.

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.

We wiped everything out prior to the initial use and I never noticed any chemical smell. Maybe something is wrong with your init.

I don't recall there being any smell and I have a problem with chemical odor. Although I don't use it often, this has been a useful spare bed for me. In my experience, none of these inflatable options can survive constant use.

Mine didn't have any odor either. So there's no problem. Bad odor are usually related with expired items.

There were directions? Sorry, I just put the clothes, or blankets/towels in the bags and used a vacuum to seal them off. The smell wasn't 'musty', but smelled of the plastic chemical. They did wash out with only one washing in the washing machine, but inconvenient to have to wash perfectly clean clothes. And an FYI. I use these while traveling since I have a small car and need the space. I find if the bags are deflated and left in one place, they do better than if you have to move them around. Seems they do not do well with much moving around. Only the slightest micro tear will cause this to be null and void for why you bought it. There were directions?

I never,never ,never, ever had any issue with the off gassing. Not once did we smell any type of odor at all. That was one of the first things I mentioned in my review. I don't know about anyone else, but our bed was sound. Until this day this mattress has held up fresh as the day we got it.

If there was, I didn't notice it. We use them for our rentals and I haven't noticed any odors from them since we bought them months ago. If there is an odor, you can just wash it before you use it.

To be honest my comforter did not have an odor. Based on the reviews I thought it would so I aired it out for a few hours even though I could not detect any smell. Never had a problem and really like this comforter.

Not sure what smell people were referring to. Ours did not have any unusual odor. Kind of new leather smell for a very short period of time.They are in my son's bedroom, so somewhat of a confined space and we can't smell anything.

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...
