100,000 Mattresses Sold on Amazon Are Being Recalled Due to Fire Risk. Here’s What You Should Know
Crayan Mattresses failed to meet federal safety standards, posing a potentially deadly fire hazard. Here’s what to do if you have one.
You’ll want to check the tags if you purchased a mattress from Amazon within the past couple of years. According to the US Consumer Product Safety Commission (CSPC), around 100,000 Crayan mattresses are being recalled due to flammability risks as of June 18, 2025. Here’s how to check if you have one of these mattresses and how to receive a refund.
What products are being recalled?
The recall involves Crayan Mattresses’ 10-inch and 12-inch beds (twin, full, queen and king sizes), sold on Amazon from June 2022 through June 2024. These beds are single-sided with a white-knit quilted top and gray side panels. The brand name ‘Crayan’ is stitched into the front foot panel in white letters.
Crayan Mattresses’ retailer, Foshanshi Liyue Jiaju Youxian Gongsi, dba Crayan Inc., is based in China. Its mattresses are manufactured in Japan and delivered compressed in a box. The price range for these mattresses is between $100 and $220.
Why are they being recalled?
All mattresses and mattress pads sold in the US must meet the open flame flammability requirements established by the CPSC, known as 16 CFR 1633. Crayan Mattresses violate federal safety standards by failing to meet these requirements, posing a potential risk of serious injury or death from fire hazards. However, no incidents or injuries have been reported.
What should you do?
The first step is to immediately stop sleeping on your recalled mattresses and contact Crayan Mattresses for a refund. According to the CPSC, you will need to “mark the mattresses permanently with the word ‘Recalled’ in large font across the white top panel.” Submit your photo of the mattress to the company’s email at crayan_service@hotmail.com to confirm your purchase, after which you should receive a full refund.
If you have questions about the recall, you can call Crayan at 779-605-4458 from 5 p.m. to 11 p.m. PT Monday through Friday. If you’re having trouble contacting the company or receiving your refund, you can fill out the Recall Complaint Form on the CPSC’s website.

Spotify Brings Wrapped Energy Year-Round With Friend-Sharing Stats
The music service introduced new ways for music nerds to share their listening habits with friends.
It can be a long wait for Spotify Wrapped, the end-of-year promotion that allows Spotify users to view and share their listening habits. Now, users can keep an eye on those stats daily, plus share their listening habits with friends.
You can view your Spotify usage statistics every 24 hours and share your updates via social media services, such as Instagram Notes or Spotify Messages. The new share icon gives you access to eight different services where you can post your stats.
Every week, you’ll get updates on your top artists and songs from the past month, and Spotify will recommend new playlists. The app also gives you a «special highlight» based on a specific artist or song.
To access your personal musical data, click on your profile in the top left corner of the app and scroll down to «listening stats.»
Don’t miss any of our unbiased tech content and lab-based reviews. Add CNET as a preferred Google source.
The new features are somewhat similar to Spotify Wrapped, the service’s annual end-of-year review of users’ listening habits, which is designed to be shared. Every year, Spotify adds extra details to Wrapped, such as assigning users a listening personality or a city that supposedly reflects their music tastes. It’s been the most popular way for Spotify users to view and share their music listening in the past. A number of third-party services do the same thing, including Volt.fm.

Spotify is the world’s largest music streaming service, offering 100 million tracks and serving more than 713 million users. In addition to its $12-per-month subscription service, Spotify also offers a free, ad-supported option.

Wordle Gets Personal: You Can Now Make and Share Your Own Puzzles
If you’re a Wordle obsessive, you can now make your own inside joke puzzles to send to friends.
Wordle’s an immensely popular New York Times word game (we post the answers daily), but it’s not the most personal game in the world. Answers such as GUISE and PERIL are tricky, but generic. Now, Wordle fans who have ever dreamed of making their own puzzles can test their friends and family by creating their own Wordle creations up to seven letters in length.
No surprise, you have to be a New York Times Games or All Access Subscriber to use this feature. If you are, you’ll find the Create a Puzzle option available from the top menu above today’s Wordle. While you must be a subscriber to create your own personalized puzzle, you can share it with anyone — they only need the link, not a subscription, to complete your Wordle.
Don’t miss any of our unbiased tech content and lab-based reviews. Add CNET as a preferred Google source.
Enter a word, and the site will tell you if it is available. Real Wordle limits you to five-letter words, but the puzzle-making feature lets you choose words between 4 and 7 letters.
The usual dictionary rules apply, and so curse words, some pet names, and obscure inside jokes are essentially out. If your cat is named TANGO, that’s there, but RINGO is not an option. You can drop a proposal with a single word like MARRY, but MARRYME will get rejected since that’s two separate words.
Word chosen, you can then fill out your name and add an optional hint, and the feature will generate your puzzle with a link you can send around. Unlike standard puzzles, your puzzle doesn’t appear to reset after a day, so whoever you send it to doesn’t need to rush to solve it.
