Input:
The product is functional. I like that part. But the wall-attaching stripe and even the handle bars to some degree smells horrible. The wall-attaching stripe smelled like industrial strong waxy rubber. It smelled so bad that I threw it away. The handle bar, thankfully, smells less intense but it still smells like rubber/latex.

I hope the smell fades soon.
