The product, in the report: Blueair Classic 203 portable room air purifier for in home use for removal of allergens and odors
The Blueair Classic 203 air purifier emitted a strong chemical odor in my home. It is for in-home use. My whole bedroom smelled like a chemical plant upon waking up in the morning 3 days ago on March 1 2018. Immediately I turned the unit off. I acutually was very scared and I am still concerned for my health. Until the unit is tested by a test lab i will have no way of knowing what the chemical was that i inhaled into my lungs. I have been struggling with sinus issues for 4 days and trying to get my sense of smell to return. All I can smell is the chemical that the Blueair 203 unit emitted. Manufacturing company is Bluair Inc 100 north LaSalle st suite 1900 Chicago IL 60602
