I bought an air purifier on facebook marketplace for 15 and it works idk how well but it STINKS I mean smells so so bad the filter was wrapped in plastic and even when I unwrapped it still smells so so awful I cleaned with vinegar and Lysol and just everything under the sun but it still smells can someone help me with advice on how to get the smell out. I ended up just leaving everything outside even the open filter and just hoping the outside air will fix it I live in Texas
