    The product, in the report: Work Smart Basic Task Chair

    The consumer indicates that she unboxed the two chairs in order to put them together and as soon as she unwrapped the units she noticed a strong chemical smell emitting from it. The consumer went ahead and put the chairs together and left them in her office to air out for a couple of days. After a couple of days, the consumer noticed that when she was around the chairs her eyes and throat would burn. The consumer removed one of the chairs from her office and placed it in her garage. The consumer notes that although both chairs still emit a chemical smell, it is not as strong as the day she received them.

    The consumer contacted the Manufacturer and explained the situation; the representative she spoke to informed her that she needed to contact the retailer instead.

    The consumer states that she kept the chairs inside her home for two days.

    The consumer plans on keeping her chairs for at least the next thirty days in case an investigation ensues.
