Try taking the cover off your bed or pillow and wash it. Then put your own pillow or mattress cover and sheets. I found that helped lots.

The best way to let these mattresses lose their smell is to remove the casing and just let the mattress air itself out. Put it in a room with an open window. Don't put it into direct sunlight. It takes about 6 weeks. I recommend walking on the mattress with socks on regulalary to make it flex and air out faster.

The pillow felt great. The SMELL
was horrendous. I could not get rid of it!

We just purchased the Rhapsody Tempur-Pedic Bed and I have to say I am NOT happy with it after spending $3000.00. We have had it for 5 days now and it has an overwhelming INTOXICATING smell that is just NOT going away and my back has been hurting since we got it. That being said...my husband loves it and his back is feeling much better after 5 nights, but he doesn't like the smell of it. We wake up in the morning with the odor of polyurethane on our skin and hair. I took the sheets off and put new ones on. I just now went to wash the ones from the first night and the smell is still on them after not being on the bed for 4 days. WHAT IS THIS SMELL AND HOW CAN WE GET RID OF IT???
