Old review: ============== The mat smells so toxic that I couldn't handle it inside the house. The smell gave me a massive headache. I took it outside to air, and it's been way over a month and still smells bad. I've used many vinyl / plastic products inside the house including LVP flooring, other plastic covers, and NONE of them ever gave a smell. I don't consider myself sensitive to smell by any means. I'm surprised with how bad this product smells, and even more shocked with how long it takes to air it outside. What a waste of money. Updated review: ===================== The representatives from ExactMats contacted me about this issue after my first review. They mentioned their new factory makes less smelly products. They sent me a replacement to try. Upon opening the table mat, I can immediately smell a difference, it's indeed much better! After airing it in my garage floor for several weeks, I'm finally able to use it and it won't smell at all. At the end, I'm happy with the product, but I just wish it airs a lot faster than several weeks.
