It's VERY important that I get a non-toxic mat without an odor. Is there an odor to this mat?

I am very sorry I don't remember it has been too long and I didn't pay attention. I love the mat though very comfortable.

I have had mine for a week and there is a terrible industrial odor. Would not recommend.

I certainly have not detected any odor and am entirely satisfied with them and think they are a particularly good buy.

Once you take it out of the box it ships in you will have a "new" odor but that only lasts a couple of hours. After that there is no smell at all. I wouldn't hesitate to put this mat in any room of my home. I believe you will love this mat!

I haven't noticed any odors at all. I can't swear that it is non-toxic but my nose is very sensitive to odors and it doesn't have any smell at all.

I did not notice an odor, however, I did have to return it. I bought it for my kids and they took one step and went flying. A big slippery.

Not at all. I've had a few of these over the years, the 1 I have now, and all others, never a smell issue. That being said, the pad is not removable/washable. If someone sweats or has pets I can see it might pick up odors. Mine smells fine, I just checked :-)

I wish I could answer your question. It is impossible for me to distinguish. The odor has settled down, but it is still lingering. I would say the odor was a 10+++ for the first few weeks, and now is a 3 out of ten. It has improved, but is in no terms gone. I would not have small children play on this mat. It is unfortunate because otherwise, I love this mat.

When it first comes out of the packaging it does smell bad. Like plastic but after a few days the smell is gone. We store ours in the living and it doesn't bother us. I should add that everything in my house is scent free and strong smells do cause migraines. I never had a problem with the mat.

There is no remarkable odor. When just opened from the protective sleeve the mat came in there was a slight plastic smell. I've had the mat for months and don't smell any odor in the room it's used in, even up close there is no overwhelming smell of plastic , only a slight one.

No - there was no odor at all! I have ordered two of these on separate occasions and never had an issue with any type of odor.

No, there should not be an odor. Something must be wrong with the particular item you purchased. I would send it back and ask for an exchange. I have never noticed any odor at all and I have used it for years. Good luck!

I love this safe, I use it everyday and there is no odor/smell that I have ever noticed...there is a cushion in it on the bottom but u can take that out if u want. For me this purchase was great and I dont have a single complaint.

I certainly hope so, but I don't know for sure. It doesn't have a chemical smell like some mats.

I guess I never noticed an odor on my mat, and I've been using them for many years. I keep the plastic protector on it when I'm not using it. And when it's in use, whatever paper I'm cutting is covering the mat. I would assume that the longer one uses it, the odor would begin to dissipate.

It's a pretty strong rubber smell indeed. Mine has softened but still has that smell, but only noticeable to me. I love the mat so much I don't even notice it anymore. I've asked people next to me at yoga class if they can smell it, because I don't want to invade their space, and they don't notice it. I have noticed that since I have left it in my car this time of year (it's been extremely cold, like 4 degrees) that the smell has softened even more. Perhaps using a yoga mat cleaner will help dissipate the smell for you. It will take time however. I just don't mind it I guess. One of the reasons I got this mat is because I sweat so much in yoga class and was slipping. I don't slip at all on this mat, unless it's an ungodly hot summer day. I don't do hot yoga, but our studio is a warm studio, temp set at 82 degrees for class. If your hands and feet sweat excessively, I recommend a towel for your mat. Most people in my class use one, but I haven't had to since I got this mat. BTW, I love the saffron color I got. It's cheerful (totally my personality) and no one else has it.

None of that with ours -mats usually have some kind of smell the first few hours due to the no airing out but ours had a hole in the cardboard box it came in so no smell.

Hi, there was a very slight odor at first, but it quickly went away. I've been very happy with these sink mats.

No odor from this mat. I love the mats and they are just what I was looking for. I use them only to roll out pastry for pie. They stick to the counter and are large enough to roll out the dough for a 9 inch pie with plenty of room to spare. I recommend the mats and would buy them again. They were well packaged and arrived promptly after I ordered them. No odors that I detected.
