I have always been so careful of buying furniture and safe carpeting made of wool because I was aware of the off gassing toxins. Never thought about premade bathroom vanities and floors.
So, I am doing my homework. I came across this great website and they have 4 sizable free download books with tons of information on hazardous materials. Really great stuff that we should all be aware of especially us idiopaths
