Also has a weird smell

Like other have noted, there is a chemical smell when you first get it.

It works fine but the plastic tube around the neck piece smells bad.

What is that horrible smell from the hosing that goes on the piece that rubs on your neck

What do I do now?!??!After unpacking the holder I was immediately overwhelmed by the horrible smell

There's no weird smell

It works just like I would expect it to, but the rubber coating does smell terrible

The metal on this holder is lesser quality and the rubber slide on the back (for comfort) has a horrible smell

Not as bad as some have said, but an annoying chemical smell is definitely noticeable
