    I use my dehydrator oil remover all the time and never noticed any smell in the room. I do get a small sniff of lane oil when I open it up but it goes away in 3 sec.

    Wow,,, I never thought I had that great of a smeller, but EVERYTIME I de-oil my bowling balls, (doesn't matter which brand), My wife and me both notice a STRONG lane oil smell!

    If you don't smell it, then you might get your sniffer checked out.

    My dehydrator, as I mentioned, is in my rather larger 3 car garage, and it fills it with the scent of lane oil!

    Like I mentioned earlier, put it next to your oven vent, (especially if its the type that actually sends the fumes out side, not just filters it back into the house/apartment.)

    maybe an extension cord leading to your deck.... overlooking the ocean!

    It also might be that not everyone is using the same temperature.

    You're supposed to sweat the oil out of the ball, not roast it out.

    YES, I always wait for the pin to pop out before removing it???? 350 for 3 hours?

    That looks JUST like my Marauder Madness, after I de-oil it!

    I don't understand why people fervently post about anything bowling related. I mean, if you post more than once a week, come on, get a life already! Am I right?

    If you don't smell it, then you might get your sniffer checked out.

    It could also be the type of lane oil that is used where you most frequently bowl as well. There are a bunch of different brands out there with lots of options under each brand.
