I bought a duvet cover and it has a bad smell about it No matter how much I clean it the smell won't go away. Could it be the type of cotton used? It is unfortunate because I use the duvet for my guestroom which must account for my fewer guests of late LOLHow to get this odour out?
I’m anxious

Inappropriate?What kind of detergent are you using? If you haven't already, try something with a strong fragrance (that you like). Also, if you have a place that you can let it air dry outside that might help. And you can also lay a dryer sheet out on it when the bed is made up -- in between guest visits -- that can help keep it smelling fresh.
Also, try asking this question over at the Method Home Satisfaction site. They might have some further suggestions for you.
I’m partial to bedding that doesn't stink

Inappropriate?Which duvet is this? I'm shopping for one and want to make sure I don't end up with the same one ;)
I’m scared

Inappropriate?All IKEA merchandise is shipped together in the same containers. This means that fumes from the manufacture of wood products can get into everything else, including fabrics and food. This is an occasional quality issue at IKEA stores requiring the destruction of affected merchandise. (There are jokes about Malm flavored cookies. Yuck.)
You could have returned the smelly fabrics withing 90 days of purchase. Depending on the friendliness (or not) of you local store's staff, you may still be able to do so.
You might get the smell out with a dry cleaning. Their solvents may be able to extract the stink.
I’m Good luck!
