I am not sure what the odor is. We have had new stick-built and I had trouble with the out gassing of the carpet and cupboard materials which burned my eyes, made me dizzy and gave me a headache. It seems that it "cooks" out more when the temps are high. I was actually thinking about this last night, how "new" and I often don't get along but it has saved me a lot of money over the years. I air out pillows, mattresses, etc. before using them. I have very few headaches this way. We had a mobile home, brand new and we had a vent system but when it got cold and we pulled them shut, that is when the problems started so the vent will most likely solve the problem. Personally if I get a new one, I would close it up and put it in the hot sun, let it cook and then air it out again and again. I can be over the top when it comes to good health.
