I bought a used Sofa couch the weekend now that it is in my apt. I realized it reeks like cigarette smoke. I already went through almost a whole bottle of febreeze. Does any one have any ideas what I can try next?

hello,
I worked in a video poker place (also we are smokers) and we used a product called OroBan. The product is sold at Sam's Wholesale Clubs.
It is diluted with water in a spray bottle, 1/4 water 3/4 product.
You spray everywhere and it dries fairly quickly. I spray all my rugs, furniture, curtains and beds. I also use it in my washer. The laundry comes out softer and smelling very nice.
Best of luck
God bless

Febreeze pretty much should do it. You could put the couch outside for an airing for a while and there are a number of furniture shampoos available that should help.

Febreeze only makes it worse, it just mixes with the odor. I inherited a couch from chain smokers and had it proffessionally cleaned (not that expensive) and that helped alot.

In a car, you can throw some coffee beans down to absorb a smell. Try some coffee beans in the cushion.

ask your local Vet, once I got some spray that eliminated skunk smell (also will rid smoke) there's also a product called odor assassin

Try shampooing it yourself, rent a machine. Otherwise have it professionally shampooed. Good luck!
