I put it back and found a different kind of Fiskars (yellow)that didn't smell. I told the clerk and she said they had problems in the spring and people returned them but not since, I had her smell it and she said "Oh my that is awful" I hope they send that batch back! Please open your mat before you purchase it and give it a sniff test! It smelled like Skunk!
