Nipoamerican Mattress Recall

On April 6, importer Nipoamerican Inc., headquartered in Marlborough, Massachusetts, recalled about 325 mattresses manufactured in Brazil because they fail to meet the mandatory federal open-flame standard for mattresses, according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.

No injuries have been reported in connection with the mattresses.

This recall involves all models and sizes of Niposul and NipoFlorida Elegance, Elegance Gold and Evolution mattresses. The Elegance and Evolution mattresses are white, and the Elegance Gold mattresses are white with black sides. “Nipobrasileira” and “Oriental J2000” are embroidered on the bed borders.

The mattresses were sold at Niposul stores in Massachusetts and NipoFlorida stores in Florida from July 2014 through October 2015. Prices ranged from $1,200 to $6,500.

The CPSC advises consumers to contact Niposul or NipoFlorida for free mattress covers to bring the mattress into compliance with the federal standard and protect consumers from a fire. Assistance with installation is available upon request.
