The product, in the report: 3’ by 3’ doormat-Attached PDF file has ALL product description
Home Depot sells a “rubber doormat”, I bought 3 (on earlier trips) Home Depot Product Numbers 136069 and 6945718400008 at $19.97 each + tax.
The product description on web, of which I have a copy, states CLEARLY that they are for indoor & outdoor use. These mats were placed outside on my balcong, gave off a toxic odor, and that odor which was “pulled inside” the house.
These 3’X 3’mats off-gased a toxic substance, making three people physically ill (2 GA residents/ 1 visiting from CA)
Mats were so toxic that I sealed them in plastic and had them hauled them off.
I want Home Depot to a) pull this product of off the shelves, b) have an independent lab evaluate the toxin(s) emitted when these doormats are placed in direct sunlight, and for them to advise me of the results; that they pay for any remediation needed for getting this toxic odor out of the house and medical bills.
This odor is so strong and pungent (my opinion toxic since it made three people ill with diarrhea and headaches, and for all I know could either be carcinogenic or toxic to some organ in the human body.) that when I asked a Home Depot Store Associate to help me locate the item in the store, she commented she even hated to walk down the aisle because of the “odor” and she didn’t think Home Depot should be selling them. You can find this item on www.homedepot.com, and either enter the product numbers I have mentioned or search on “doormats”
Just FYI, I have spent $1885 at Hone Depot since April, 2011.
I am also, depending on how responsive you are in dealing with this, contact investigative reporters in Atlanta (AJC) and local TV stations to advise the public of this matter
