Nice tips thank you. I'm thinking to use my tempurpedic mattress discount from one of my shopper reward schemes to get a memory foam mattress for my father. He is always complaining about sleeping problems and I am sure it's because he needs one of these.

OK, guess I'll have to build that guest room, then, eh? I was hoping some company had found away around the smell. Thanks.

Keep searching and if you find something post it here. I've also read differing reports that the smell is from the plastic used to wrap the mattress but it looks like it's typically the foam that is treated with flame retardant.

The typical smell is because of the fire retardants used to treat the mattress after it is manufactured. This is a must practice in US.

From what I've heard there isn't much you can do besides letting the mattress air out in a guest room while you sleep on your old mattress. Or else you can put multiple sheets over it and makes sure the room is well ventilated.

I agree on this. The only way to remove the factory smell from your mattress is to put many sheets.
