I agree, the store should do something to fix it. I am sensitive to smells sometimes that no one else notices! :?

Did you have them treat it with a stain resistor??? If so that is probably what the smell is and it does go away within a week or so...if you clean it you will lose the protectant... I put a fan blowing on mine and cracked windows open to air the room and the furniture out.

Well ladies I am happy to say that I left the house OPEN with a couple fans in the window sucking the air out, we went and played at a friends house for a while. I called the store where I got it and they said it was just from the warehouse, it doesn't bother most people and most people doesn't even notice it, but if I still noticed it when I got home they would be happy to do something about it. When I came home the house didn't smell any more. It wasn't a stench it was......hmmm I don't know how to explain it, you know a new car smell, well this was kinda like this but it was "harsher".

The material is actually 100% polyester. BUT it is the faux bomber jacked leather look. We have two cats, a dog, and three kids, we love real leather exp. the stuff that looks real old. But this is "safer". lol. It doesn't stain, and it doesn't rip easily like leather can when the cat gets on it!

I love the furnitue NOW! I need to make a couch quilt, and some pillows fo it! lol

I am sew glad you are able to enure your new furniture. Now your can begin to enjoy it! Be sure to take photos of it with it's new throw! :lol:

Glad it worked out alright!!
