I got this chair on Oct. 8th..and when I opened the box the smell was bad, they said to put in a place to let the air get to it, and I did that, still smells really bad, would I buy this if I new you had to let the chair acclimate to get the smell out. NO!!!!!  I'm going to give a couple of more days to air, and if it still smells it will go back, very disappointed!!!!!
