1.0 out of 5 stars Toxic stench -- this product should not be on the market, November 22, 2009

I received this camera case a week ago, and I've never regretted a purchase more. The case STINKS. I left it outside for a week, and though the smell has decreased, from causing me to retch to merely making me nauseous, it still stinks. It off-gasses a smell a bit like diesel fuel, but much stronger. As a chemist I have had the opportunity to smell a wide variety of hydrocarbons, and this case smells like a mixture of various aliphatic an aromatic species, likely containing a number of PNAs (polynuclear aromatics), which are likely quite toxic. The smell raises the hair on the back of my neck, and scares the hell out of me. My chemical intuition says, "Danger -- Toxic!". I can't believe anyone would sell a product like this, and I pity the poor workers who were exposed to the fumes during its manufacture. Is it made from recycled industrial waste? When reviewers here say it smells, beware, it really SMELLS! Do not allow it into your home!

1.0 out of 5 stars Stinks, literally, November 17, 2009

Nice case, price was right, shipping was fast...but the case literally STINKS! It had an awful, chemical smell that would not quit. I contacted the company, and they verified that they found the smell on other units too...but would NOT send me a replacement unless I returned the obviously unsellable case. Too cheap to bother returning, and the company wasn't kind enough (even after acknowledging the problem) to send a replacement anyway. Oh well. Now, there's no wonder why it was so cheap. Junk merchandise. Be forewarned.

Great little camera case. I'm always wary of cases like this that claim they fit 20+ cameras, but it really fits my Canon Powershot A410 PERFECT. Seems well made and durable. Great Price. Thanks guys...
