It has an extremely strong gasoline and chemical smell.

People are stupid the smell is not that bad nor really noticeable unless you are shoving this item up your nose.

But for the terrible solvent smell, I'd give it a perfect score.

Had strong smell that dissipated over time.

The smell was so bad it burned our

I even tried setting it outside for a few days- nope, it still has an awful smell

Really bad smell, but seems to be holding up well

I have been happy with other Case Logic products before but this product in Blue had a strong petroleum smell that would not go away.

I'm reasonably certain this is a decent CD case, but I'm returning it because of the hideous chemical smell

But, it still has an awful smell

They did have a pretty terrible smell, so plan to air them out a few days in your garage or elsewhere before you plan to use them or give them as gifts.

This item sports a very strong, unpleasant smell

The case itself is fine however, as soon as I opened the package I noticed a horrible chemical smell that did not wear off even after sitting out for several days

:It has an odd smell if you slam your face into it; 10/10 must try

The smell is awful.

Had an extremely toxic smell when I took it out of the package

Case works fine, but the TERRIBLE smell when you remove it from the packaging was almost too much

Product came smelling so strong of gasoline

Sadly the smell is so strong that it's nauseating, but it isn't worth the hassle of returning

The case fills any room it's in with that awful smell.

The only complaint I have about this item is that it has a STRONG chemical smell that won't seem to go away.

Awful nasty smell, its that horrible China rubber smell

This product came encased in a plastic sleeve and when I removed the sleeve, the smell of petroleum was terrible.

I was hesitant to order after the reviews on the strong smell but the case had no smell at all

Only issue is the very chemical smell

Strong synthetic smell, easily scratched.

My only complaint is this very strong smell (chemical like) coming from the packaging and or product

The case itself seems like it would be very good and protective, but as others have noted, the smell is awful to the point that the case is entirely unusable

The Ugly:Case arrived smelling like it had marinated in a cigarette factory prior to shipment

These are nice cases, but smell HORRIBLE.

This strong smell ruined the beautiful construction of the product which is just what I wanted.

Strong smell when you first open for a couple of weeks.

Well made; but had a terrible smell

3 starts because it has a bad smell

Other than the awful smell of the interior, (You don't have too be close to notice it), it was in brand new condition, and was the correct color.

Like others have said, there is a strong "new" smell, but like a new car it goes away

Product had a bad smell like paint or nail polish.

The smell is atrocious!

The case itself is fine, but the smell is HORRIBLE

Lots of reviews said it had a very strong chemical smell.

This smelled horrible

Does the job, but after 3 weeks still has a strong chemical plastic smell.

:: the smell is horrible!!!

The smell is obnoxious and as one reviewer noted "toxic" smelling

I got the 72 capacity blue one and it appears to be durable which is why I wanted it, it may seem kind of silly to complain about a smell but this CD case has an EXTREMELY overwhelming chemical smell that just cant be ignored, I've had it in my room for 1 day and its making me

This item seems durable, but it has an awful smell to it

Strong synthetic smell, easily scratched.

I let it sit out in the open for four days and the smell didn't dissipate at all, if just stunk up the area around it.

Worst and foulest-smelling item -- with an overwhelming stench of plastic, chemical mothballs, I had to quickly put it back in the box.

but it has a horrible chemical/plastic smell

I had to literally stick my nose in it to get a good smell.

This has a harder top then the smaller Case Logic I purchased and had a weird smell (like a shoe polish smell?).

Great case and well made, but it had a funny smell inside

In many of the reviews it was stated that this case had a very strong chemical smell, but when it arrived, I checked it out and there was no smell present on this case.

Has a very repellent, unpleasant smell.

Very good besides the weird smell it has.

There isn't any funky smell coming from mine, and it's constructed well enough that I'm happy how it's holding all my DVDs

Absolutely disgusting chemical smell.

Don't get me wrong, I'm happy with the product and would recommend it, but if I keep the case open for too long (just flipping through the pages) the smell will give me a small headache.

Fairly good quality, but really strong chemical smell.

Weird smell to it.... but nice case

Kinda weird plastic smell when you first receive it, but it fades away

the second one i bought had a horrible smell to

Opened this up and the chemical smell on thisone is so bad, my eyes were watering....so going to see if I can't airit out before I put it in my car.

Terrible terrible smell
