The product, in the report: White shag rug made in Turkey
I purchased a nuLOOM Alexa ‘My Soft and Plush’ Shag Rug (8’ x 10’) rug from Overstock.com. As soon as I unrolled the rug, it started giving off a really strong chemical smell (like ammonia fumes). I started experiencing shortness of breath, coughing and red watering eyes. I had to roll up the rug immediately and take it outside.
I believe this product is using chemicals that may be harmful to humans and pets.
I am in excellent physical health with no prior history of any of these symptoms.
