Absolutely Toxic Odor
I've been sleeping on air mattresses for 15 years due to a bad back. Been buying Intex and Coleman, and each brand generally lasts for 6-9 months, and then a seam fails, and you buy another mattress. I only mention this to offer that I really know what air mattresses should smell like. The one I received today from Amazon is absolutely the most toxic-smelling product I've ever had the misfortune to purchase. It doesn't smell like vinyl or plastic - it smells like some sort of insecticide or industrial chemical to me. The fact that the odor comes off on your hands makes it even worse, as it suggests to me something on the plastic, and not the plastic itself. I will give it one day to air out - but if it smells this bad tomorrow, it is going back to Amazon.
