Has a acidic smell and caused irratation to skin, eyes and sinus's of multiple individuals..
There is a slightly acidic smell of the cover. Upon examining the cover for a California compliant tag to observe if the item was chemical coated for fire resistant property as it is mostly polyester based. This was all in response to several complaints by guests that the chair caused irritation to the skin and eyes of user(s). The assembler also experienced a sensation of "sand in their eyes" while opening the compressed foam core. The assembler also experienced a bloody nose the morning following the evening assembly of the chair. These issues are common of coated polyester furniture however I found it slightly alarming at the lack of CA compliant furniture markings. A small sample of the cover, and the packing that it was contained in are currently being examined by a local lab and fire department to observe the presence of Chemical Fire resistant coating.
it currently sits in an outdoor garage until the results are received.
