Do the casters or the base emit strong odors/ fumes like such products sometimes do?

no- but mine are also for my plants outside... i did go out and check them when the question was asked, and there is nothing but a kind of dirt smell where the water and soil have flowed through. Probably will put plasstic saucers under the pots when i bring them in for winter

Mine are outside but I noticed no fumes while unpacking or when close to this item.

HiAlmost all plastics will off-gas creating a smell when new however I do not recall any strong odor coming from this product. If you are super sensitive and find the smell objectionable, wipe it down with a 50/50 solution of vinegar/water and wipe dry. Keeping it away from heat and out of direct sunlight will also help to minimize any smell. In my opinion, smell will not be a problem with this product.

It's not where we would notice any odor. When first opened, didn't notice any smell.

No smells. These casters have worked out perfectly. Glad that I purchased them.

I have not a strong odor from this product, however it is outdoors on the patio.

I kept these outdoors under heavy potted plants.The casters did not hold up after moving the plants three to four times - the plastic is too light weight. The base also deformed and sags badly. They need replacing already. If there was a weight limit posted when I purchased it was not obvious.

I didn't notice any strong odors from ours. We put it in the car within a day of removing from the box. I wouldn't be concerned.

I'm sorry but I never had to, they were perfect out of the box for our waiting room. Going on 3 years now and they are still going strong. Hope that helps but we never added casters.

I am sorry to say we cannot remember what we did with the casters. If we do remember I will post the answer. However we do not remember getting any casters that smell bad. Margaret

although I read on some of the reviews that they did have an odor, I personally did not experience this. Mine smelled just fine. In fact, I bought these to replace some that I had washed and caused to develop an odor.

I don't think it's specifically the wheels that smell but the cart does have an unpleasant odor at first. I've had mine a while now and the good news is that the odor dissipates with time.

They do have a strong odor when you open the package. I left mine in the garage for a few days and that helped. There is still an odor but you have to be right near to notice it.

Mine is in a detached insulated garage and only runs periodically, but i can't say i ever found a smell associated with it.

I did notice the smell but mine wasn't what I would call strong. And it did air out. Haven't noticed since the first day. Hope this helps.

It was a while ago I got this chair (actually 2 of the separately), and though they may have had a bit of smell, I can't recall any. If there, it was definitely not pervasive and did not overwhelm the air. Any smell was not significant, nor did it linger. I have asthma and it didn't bother my breathing at all.

Hi. I do not own this item. I purchased it, but I soon returned it after learning that furniture constructed with composite wood actually gives off formaldehyde gas.

I'm usually very sensitive to any smells, but I didn't notice a smell when I opened the box. Or, if I did, it must not have been very strong and I didn't think much about it. If I were you, I would wash an item and see if it still smells. If it does, I would return it. I think some of them smell and some don't. You're not the first person to mention it. Maybe it depend on how long the pieces get to "air out" before they're packaged...

Not at all, heavy duty and you need to lay it flat but I'm happy with it, no smell!

It does have a odor, but the only time I notice it is in the box they come in. When I put them out I do not notice it.

I've owned this table for about 3 months now. It was a pain to put together, still doesn't exactly stand correctly and if it fell apart all at once, I wouldnt be shocked. However, i've never noticed any weird smell coming from it.

No. I vented it in the room that it is being used. I ran a flexible pipe above the sink to prevent overflow. I don't get any odor and it works well.
