I Purchased this credenza over 11 months ago and the horrible chemical smell when you open the drawers or doors to the shelves immediately gives me a headache and make me sick to my stomach. I have tried every kind of odor absorbing product out there including leaving the drawers and doors open and it is still as intense as the day it arrived. I cannot store anything in it, including glasses as the smell permeates those items as well. So I have a large piece of furniture in my dining room that looks nice but absolutely NON Functioning.
