Very bad smell actually: Probably paint's or MDF's. It will eventually go away unfortunately after the kidz have inhaled it for a while.

The set I purchased for my granddaughter were fine, there were no odd odors at all. In fact I had several sets. She loves them still! They are built well, and really hold up. She is still using them, and loving them 18 months later.

They do smell a little but not all that bad, if you live in Texas you would need one. I use mine in a climbing stand so i dont worry about the little bit of smell

No, no smell at all, and we used the heck out of these. I can't say enough good things about the OrganicKidz! Good luck on your search!

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...

Yes, just let them sit outside for a few days, I use them in the winter, don't have a problem with the smell at all.

It kind of smells like chemicals to me. It's a mild smell, almost like the whiff you get when you open a plastic toy container for the first time. It's not that off-putting to me, as the scent dissipates pretty rapidly after application.

After washing with dish washing liquid and water, then letting it air out overnight, I have not noticed any more plastic smell. I always air them out overnight after washing, to make sure the moisture is gone from the hard-to-reach places.

yes ours does smell pretty bad but you can only smell it if you put it up to your nose otherwise you can't smell it. If the product smell bothers yout I think putting it outside to air out for a week would help.

No. This set is great. Very durable. My 2 year old stands, jumps and do anything imaginable a 2 year old thinks of on this set. I haven't noticed or smelled any chemicals.

They would be great as a baby organizer but the smell of chemicals is so strong. I would leave it to air out for a few days and then wash it first.

I don't smell anything after a day or so. It was a plastic smell to begin with, but nothing now, we have had ours for over a year. I have 3 of them. I finally learned to put down paper towel and then either the bedding or cloth and it is so much easier to clean!

I don't know if I ever knew that, when my son is done we just rinsed them with cold water and let them air dry. They've never smelled. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. Good luck.

I'm not aware of them smelling . . . I keep them in a cabinet that's enclosed and I can't say that I've ever smelled them. More important to me is that they're heavy enough not to tear and I've never found any rips or holes in them.

Hmmmm. Mine did not smell. After I rinsed them, I used them. Maybe you should return the ones you received.

They are made of wood, and no they do not smell funny. I did have 2 pair warp on me but that may have been due to poor usage on my part.

I stored coats and hoodies in space bags, and I am very sensitive to the scent of plastic on anything I wear. I did not notice any smells from the plastic bags on any of my clothes. They stayed very clean and very compact during the time when I was moving from one house to another. Even time spent in the back of a hot moving truck didn't affect the way the clothes smelled when I later removed them from the Ziploc Space Bags. They were as fresh as when I packed them.If you do notice any little bit of scent I am sure it would easily be eliminated by one round in a washing machine.
