Hi Fiona,

Thanks for your question.

Any mattress with natural fillings always runs the risk of having that smell initially.

We would advise to get as much air to the mattress as possible and it should dissipate over time. It's difficult to give a time frame on this but just let it air as much as you possibly can.

I hope this has answered your questions fully but if you do have any further queries please don't hesitate to contact our office on 0161 437 4419. We are open Monday to Friday 8am to 8pm and Saturday and Sunday 10am to 4pm.

Kind Regards, Lee.
