2026-02-17 – A consumer reported that an Olee Sleep 13-inch hybrid gel memory foam mattress, manufactured by Grand Life Inc., released hair-thin fibers from its seams and surface, posing a toxic exposure hazard. The incident was filed with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) SaferProducts.gov database, report ID 5856418. Product DetailsBrand Name: Olee Sleep Incident OverviewOn January 23, 2026, a consumer discovered shiny, hair-thin fibers protruding from the seams and surface of their Olee Sleep 13-inch hybrid gel memory foam mattress, model 13SM01Q, which was purchased in 2021. The mattress was used for normal household sleeping in a bedroom by adults and a child. The fibers appeared to be fiberglass escaping from the internal fire-retardant layer. Upon discovering the fibers, the consumer immediately stopped using the mattress and isolated it. No serious injuries have been confirmed, but the consumer expressed concern about possible exposure to fiberglass fibers in the sleeping environment, especially given the presence of a child in the home. The report notes that the fibers pose a health and contamination risk, including potential skin, eye, and respiratory irritation. Safety ConcernsImmediate Dangers: Fiberglass fibers are sharp and can become airborne, leading to skin irritation, eye redness, and respiratory discomfort upon contact or inhalation. The fibers can embed in skin, causing itching and rashes. Long-Term Risks: Chronic inhalation of fiberglass fibers may cause persistent respiratory issues, such as bronchitis or decreased lung function. The manufacturing defect in the fire-retardant layer allows continuous fiber release, increasing cumulative exposure over time. Who Might Be Affected: Anyone sleeping on or near the mattress, including children, who are more vulnerable due to smaller airways and higher breathing rates. Bystanders in the same room may also inhale airborne fibers. Warning Signs: Visible fibers protruding from seams or surface, unexplained itching or skin irritation after sleep, and a dusty or shiny appearance on bedding or nearby surfaces. What Our Clients SayWhat Consumers Should DoStop Using Immediately: Cease using the mattress to prevent further fiber release and exposure. Isolate it in a sealed plastic bag or wrap.
