Quick Answer: Several cheap imported mattresses sold on Amazon and other marketplaces were recalled in 2025 and 2026 for failing fire-safety standards, and one infant line for a suffocation risk. The recalled beds were no-name brands like Crayan and Criblike, not the mattresses sold at established Canadian stores. Here is the list and how to shop safely.
Latest recalls, October 2026: On October 29, 2026, the U.S. CPSC recalled about 50 Pamag Pieeoo twin XL mattresses sold on Amazon.com because they violate the mandatory flammability standard for mattresses. On October 22, 2026, Health Canada recalled Simmons Kozy and Nido baby nests and loungers for a fall hazard, with 25,088 units sold in Canada. Those are baby nests, not mattresses. Details are in the October 2026 update below.
A mattress recall is a formal safety notice telling owners to stop using a product because it fails a mandatory standard. In 2025 and 2026, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) issued a string of them for low-cost mattresses sold online, including roughly 100,000 Crayan mattresses pulled for a fire hazard and about 118,000 Criblike infant mattresses, made by Mengna, recalled for suffocation and entrapment risk. Almost all were sold on marketplace platforms like Amazon, Walmart and Wayfair. At Mattress Miracle in Brantford, the question we keep hearing is simple: should I be worried about my mattress?
Every bed we stock in Brantford comes with a verifiable manufacturer compliance trail.
"In 40-plus years I have never seen mattresses fail the way some of these marketplace beds do. A proper mattress has a fire barrier built in and a label that tells you who made it. If a bed costs less than a tank of gas and ships from a seller you have never heard of, that is your warning sign."
Brad Grose, founder, Mattress Miracle, family owned in Brantford since 1997, with 40+ years in the mattress industry
The common thread is the supply chain, not mattresses in general. A mattress recall happens when a product fails the flammability or safety rules that every bed is supposed to meet before it is sold. The recalled products came from small overseas sellers that appear to have skipped that step, which is why a name-brand mattress from a Canadian store is in a very different category.

What mattresses were recalled in 2026?
The 2025 and 2026 mattress recalls share a pattern: inexpensive, no-name brands sold through online marketplaces, pulled for failing the mandatory mattress standards. None of the recalled mattresses are brands carried by established Canadian mattress retailers. Here are the main ones.
| Brand | Hazard | Roughly how many | Sold on |
|---|---|---|---|
| Crayan | Fire hazard | ~100,000 | Amazon ($100 to $220) |
| Criblike (by Mengna) | Infant suffocation and fire | ~118,000 | Amazon ($20 to $60) |
| EVLWZL and Gunugu | Fire hazard | Cover-fix issued | Amazon, Walmart, Wayfair |
| DINBooonLUX | Fire hazard | Full-size foam | Amazon |
| Pamag Pieeoo (Longjili Trading) | Fire hazard | About 50 | Amazon.com (US$80 to US$95) |
| Simmons Kozy and Nido baby nests and loungers (a baby product, not a mattress) | Fall hazard | 25,088 sold in Canada | Sold in Canada, January 2022 to September 2026 |
The Crayan case is a good example of how messy these can get. CPSC announced the recall in June 2025, but by 2026 it had to issue a direct public warning because the overseas seller would not cooperate with the recall. When the maker is a hard-to-reach company on another continent, a recall is only as good as whether you happen to see the news. Established retailers, by contrast, can reach you directly. We covered another local example in our look at the 2026 Costco Canada bed recall.
Update, July 2026: the latest mattress and bed recalls
Updated July 17, 2026. Three more CPSC actions in the same pattern are worth knowing about, and one covers a bed accessory rather than a mattress.
Avenco and Novilla mattresses (made by PT Champion)
Announced October 30, 2025 and still turning up in Canadian homes. About 5,340 mattresses in 6, 10, 12 and 14 inch thicknesses (models A-M02822-10-Q-2, A-M02822-12-K-2, B-M02901-14-Q-1, B-M02905-6-T and N-M02043-12-F-2) were recalled for violating the mandatory flammability standard. Sold on Amazon.com, Avencohome.com and Novilla.net from January through April 2025 for $85 to $265. No injuries were reported. Remedy: stop using the mattress and contact PT Champion at recall@champmattress.com for a free fitted cover that brings the bed into compliance. Recall pages: novilla.net/pages/recall and avencohome.com/pages/recall.
EVLWZL and Gunugu mattresses
Announced May 2026. Boxed foam mattresses, 10 and 12 inches thick with a black top and sides, sold on Amazon.com, Walmart.com and Wayfair.com from October 2025 through March 2026 for $100 to $260, recalled for failing the mandatory flammability standard. Remedy: stop using the mattress and contact EVLWZL for a free fitted compliance cover.
Moodooy adult portable bed rails
Announced July 9, 2026. The Moodooy model F311 bed rail (white frame, black trim, "Moodooy" printed on the storage pocket), sold on Amazon in February 2026 for about $38 by seller Yuezhang, violates the mandatory standard for adult portable bed rails. A user can become trapped between the rail and the mattress, an asphyxiation hazard that CPSC treats as a risk of death. Remedy: stop using the rail immediately, cut the black safety strap, mark the rails "RECALLED" and email a photo to Moodooy-recall@outlook.com for a full refund.
As of mid-July 2026, none of these three recalls has a matching Health Canada notice, even though the same listings shipped to Canadian addresses. That gap between the two systems is exactly why we wrote a separate guide: Do US mattress recalls apply in Canada? It walks through checking both databases in a few minutes.
Update, October 2026: Pamag Pieeoo mattresses and Simmons baby nests
Updated October 30, 2026. The October 2026 recalls include one marketplace mattress, recalled in the United States for the same fire-safety failure as the beds above, and one Canadian recall of a baby nest.
Pamag Pieeoo mattresses (Longjili Trading)
Announced October 29, 2026 (CPSC recall number 27-061). About 50 Pamag Pieeoo mattresses, 8 inches thick and sold in a twin XL size, with a white top and white sides with a grey curve pattern, sold compressed in a box. The date of manufacture and "Model: BFC8HMBYTX-US" are printed on a sewn-in white label on one side of the mattress. Sold on Amazon.com in March 2026 for between US$80 and US$95 by Longjili Trading (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd. of China. The recalled mattresses violate the mandatory flammability standard for mattresses, posing a risk of serious injury or death from fire. No injuries were reported. Remedy: stop using the recalled mattress immediately and contact Longjili Trading at Pamagpieeoo@outlook.com for a full refund. Owners will be asked to write "RECALLED" in permanent marker on the top surface of the mattress, send a photo of the marked mattress to that address, and then dispose of it. Official notice: CPSC, Longjili Trading Recalls Pamag Pieeoo Mattresses.
Simmons Kozy and Nido baby nests and loungers (a baby product, not a mattress)
Announced October 22, 2026 (Health Canada recall RA-82829). Health Canada determined that the Kozy (models 59900 and 59902) and Nido (models 59950, 59955, 59960 and 59965) baby nests and loungers do not meet the Cribs, Cradles and Bassinets Regulations in Canada, creating the potential for fall hazards. The company reported that 25,088 units were sold in Canada from January 2022 to September 2026. As of October 19, 2026, the company had received no reports of incident or injury in Canada. The model number is on the warning label on the product. Remedy: immediately stop using the recalled product and safely dispose of it in such a way that it cannot be used again. Questions go to the importer, Jupiter Industries, at 1-800-465-5795 or customerservice@jupiterindustries.com. Official notice: Health Canada, Simmons Kozy and Nido Baby Nests/Loungers recalled due to fall hazard.
The two recalls run in opposite directions. A search of Health Canada's recall database on October 30, 2026 for "Pamag", "Pieeoo", "Longjili" and the model number, archived notices included, found no Canadian notice for the Pamag Pieeoo mattress, and the CPSC notice names Amazon.com as the only place it was sold. The Simmons recall is a Canadian notice. Health Canada's own safe sleep guidance says soft products like baby nests and loungers are not safe places for a baby to sleep, so a nest is never a sleep space, and the recalled Simmons models should not be used at all. For where a baby should sleep instead, see our guide to bassinets and baby beds for newborns.
Why do cheap imported mattresses fail?
Cheap imported mattresses usually fail for one core reason: they do not meet the mandatory flammability standard. Both Canada and the United States require every mattress to pass a fire test before it is sold, which means a real mattress has a fire barrier built in to slow ignition. The recalled marketplace beds either lacked that barrier or were never properly tested, so they can catch and spread fire faster than the law allows.
There is a second, quieter problem with rock-bottom pricing: you often cannot tell what is inside. A bed selling for $100 has very little room for a quality fire barrier, dense foam, or honest labelling. That is also why fiberglass keeps turning up as a cheap flame barrier in budget foam beds. If you want to avoid it entirely, our fiberglass-free mattress guide explains what to look for.
The infant suffocation risk: criblike mattresses
The infant recall is the most serious of the group. The Criblike mattresses, made by Mengna and sold on Amazon, were recalled because they were the wrong size. A play-yard or crib mattress that is too small leaves a gap along the edge, and a baby can roll into that gap and suffocate or become trapped. The same products also failed flammability rules.
The safe-sleep rule is the same one paediatric experts have given for years. According to the U.S. National Institutes of Health Safe to Sleep guidance, an infant should sleep on a firm, flat mattress that fits the crib tightly, with no soft bedding, pillows or gaps. NIH-funded research on sudden infant death has consistently pointed to a snug, firm surface as a key safety factor. If your hand fits between the mattress and the crib side, the mattress is too small. For the full picture, see our guide to a safe crib sleep environment.
"Parents come in worried after a recall hits the news. The rule we give them is simple. A firm mattress that fills the crib with no gap, and nothing else in there. If you can fit more than two fingers between the mattress and the crib frame, it does not fit, no matter what the listing claimed."
Dorothy Balicki, Mattress Miracle
Are these recalled mattresses a risk in Canada?
For Canadian shoppers, the risk is real but specific. The mattress recalls above were issued by the U.S. CPSC, but the same marketplace listings often ship to Canada, so a bed you ordered from Amazon could be on a recall list you never saw. The good news is that the regulated Canadian retail channel is held to a standard. Health Canada surveillance testing of mattresses in recent years found that the samples it checked, both imported and Canadian-made, passed.
The takeaway is not that mattresses are dangerous. It is that where you buy matters. A mattress bought from a Canadian store, or made by a known Canadian manufacturer, goes through compliance testing that a random marketplace listing may skip. You can check any product yourself on the Health Canada Recalls and Safety Alerts database at recalls-rappels.canada.ca. For more on the rules themselves, see our explainer on the Health Canada mattress flammability standard and what the fire code requires of a mattress in Canada.
How to make sure your mattress is safe
Making sure your mattress is safe takes about a minute and comes down to where it is from and what is on the label. You do not need to be an expert, you just need to avoid the no-name marketplace trap.
A simple mattress-safety checklist
- Buy from a real retailer. A Canadian store or known manufacturer is accountable in a way an anonymous marketplace seller is not.
- Find the law label. A compliant mattress carries a sewn-in label listing its materials and the maker. No label is a red flag.
- Check the recall database. Search the brand at recalls-rappels.canada.ca before you buy, especially for anything ordered online.
- Choose fiberglass-free. Look for a clear fire barrier that is not loose fiberglass, particularly on foam beds.
- For babies, fit comes first. Use a firm crib mattress with no gap at the edges, and keep the crib clear of soft items.
Why a Brantford store can answer this in person

Frequently Asked Questions
Which mattresses were recalled in 2026?
The main 2025 and 2026 mattress recalls covered no-name marketplace brands: about 100,000 Crayan mattresses and around 118,000 Criblike infant mattresses (made by Mengna), plus EVLWZL, Gunugu and DINBooonLUX foam mattresses. Most were sold on Amazon and recalled for fire hazards, with the Criblike infant line also recalled for a suffocation risk. In October 2026 the CPSC added about 50 Pamag Pieeoo twin XL mattresses, sold on Amazon.com, for the same fire-safety failure.
How do I know if my mattress has been recalled?
Find the brand and model on the law label sewn to your mattress, then search it on the Health Canada Recalls and Safety Alerts database at recalls-rappels.canada.ca. If you bought from a Canadian store and the bed is from a known maker, the odds of a recall are very low.
Are cheap Amazon mattresses safe?
Some are fine, but the recalls show the risk. The beds pulled in 2026 were low-cost listings from overseas sellers that failed mandatory fire-safety tests. If a mattress is unusually cheap, has no clear law label, or comes from a brand you cannot trace, treat it with caution.
What makes a crib mattress safe for a baby?
A safe crib mattress is firm, flat, and fits the crib snugly with no gap at the edges, with no soft bedding around it. NIH Safe to Sleep guidance has long recommended a firm, tight-fitting surface. If you can fit more than two fingers between the mattress and the crib frame, it is too small.
Does Mattress Miracle sell any recalled mattresses?
No. Mattress Miracle carries mattresses from known makers with proper labelling and built-in fire barriers, not the no-name marketplace brands involved in these recalls. If you want help checking a mattress you already own, bring us the label in Brantford and we will look it up with you.
