 Cushions smell like turpentine and are NOT machine washable, January 24, 2008
The glider and ottoman were easy to put together, they look great and are very comfortable and not too big for a small apartment. The one negative thing about this chair is, it smells really bad. The cushions smell really bad like turpentine. It smells so bad, that the room itself started to smell like that. So I definitely didn't want to put it in the nursery as I had intended. I have tried to let it air out for a couple of days now, but it still smells. My next idea was to wash the cushions, as it said on the Target Website that the cushions are machine washable. Unfortunately it didn't come with any instructions how to wash the cushions, and when I called Storkcraft they told me the back- and the seat cushions are only hand washable. The pad on the ottoman is stapled to it, so that doesn't even come off, therefore can't be washed at all. I am very disappointed, because the idea of being able to wash the cushions was one of the reasons I decided to buy this particular chair with the beige cushions. So I am hoping the smell goes away, otherwise I will have to return it, because I am not comfortable rocking my little daughter to sleep breathing unidentified fumes. (The Storkcraft customer service was not able to tell me what could possibly cause the smell.)
