This piece of furniture arrived smelling pretty awful. We opened all the doors and windows and turned on a heavy duty air purifier for a week. On the 6th day, we put baking soda all over it to absorb the smell. After vacuuming, the smell remained. We used a mixture of vinegar and water to scrub it down. Weâll see if that solves it but the amount of effort Iâve had to put into it to remove the smell after a week is absurd.

To top it all off, itâs not level, so Iâll need to wedge something under the back to keep it from wobbling.

It looks nice but this was a really shotty piece of furniture and I may still have to return it.
