Hey all,
I recently purchased a Springbar family camper tent because our family size has grown to the point of needing this much space, and I have fond memories of the canvas wall tent my parents used when I camped as a kid. I'm now on the third consecutive day of having it setup in my backyard to air out/season, and there is still a strong chemical odor inside the tent. At first I thought it was coming from the vinyl floor but after doing a sniff test (literally my nose on the floor sniffing in various locations) I've found it is coming from the canvas walls. Is this something normal for canvas tents (or Springbar's in particular)? I'm a little concerned by the smell since my wife is pregnant and is in that phase where she is extremely sensitive to smells.
