Question

I bought a used bedroom set and it smells so bad. How do I get rid of the smell?

Answer 1

If you are talking about furniture, you can put charcoal, or baking soda inside shallow pans and put it inside the drawers it helps to absorb odor.

Answer 2

Soapy wood cleaner - follow instructions on the bottle.

Re-polish with good furniture polish - eg wax.

Perfumed drawer liners.

Burn aromatherapy oil in the room - Eucalyptus is nice although there is a vast choice to be had.

Answer 3

Wash it with some white vinegar and baking soda.If that doesn't do it you can spray it with some Natures Miracle and set it aside for a day or so and if the smell is from urine it should remove the smell. You can find it at Petco, Petsmart etc. They have smaller bottles than the one in the link. Unless you have pets you won't need that much.

What by the way is a bedroom set? Do you mean bedding set (cloth) or bedroom furniture? If you mean furniture you should test anything out on a spot that's hidden to see if it will affect the finish before doing the whole set. I used the Natures Miracle for cat urine on my stained baseboards when I had a sick cat who peed all over my baseboards and it didn't affect the finish.
