Guest guest Posted August 8, 2008 Report Share Posted August 8, 2008 To those who use softhose, I just got a shipment and was shocked at the fragrance as he's washing them in scented dishwasher detergent. He said his hose had a very bad smell. I can't use them for that reason with my allergies. Have others of you experienced the same? Does it not bother you? I am so disappointed as I love the hose but can't take fragrance in my nose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 8, 2008 Report Share Posted August 8, 2008 Bruce, They have a phone # on their web site and I am sure you can send them back and get replacements.I have been using them for three years and have never had that problem. I did however have a problem with the High Flow cannulas and sent them back and got a credit. They were extremely heavy.

Guest guest Posted August 8, 2008 Report Share Posted August 8, 2008 Peggy He says he's washing all of them like that now because the tubing smells so bad. I communicated with him. He said he'd give a refund. The problem is I was so excited after waiting weeks for them to be shipped and love the design, but I can't use them. So, you're saying yours do not have a dishwasher detergent or any other fragrance when they arrive? > > To those who use softhose, I just got a shipment and was shocked at the > fragrance as he's washing them in scented dishwasher detergent.

Guest guest Posted August 8, 2008 Report Share Posted August 8, 2008 No smell. sometimes I get the rubber smell so I take them out of the package and hang the up for a day then use them. Wonder when he started that.???? Try soaking them in water with just a drop or two of white vinegar. then air dry Love and Prayers, Peggy IPF 2004, Florida"Worry looks around, Sorry looks back, Faith looks up."

Guest guest Posted August 8, 2008 Report Share Posted August 8, 2008 Peggy My thought is it may have started when he returned from his trip. He was gone about a month and not responding to or filling orders. My shipment came shortly upon his return. May try soaking the cannulas. Obviously nothing I can do about the 50 foot hose if its like that. You can put your nose up to even the outside of the bags and smell it on the cannulas. I knew you and others were very happy with them and thats why I was asking. He said something about having gotten complaints on the rubber smell. But, I think its probably much better than the detergent. > > > > To those who use softhose, I just got a shipment and was shocked at > the > > fragrance as he's washing them in scented dishwasher detergent.
