Help! I own a Zinus Mattress

Do you own a Zinus mattress or another fiberglass mattress? Then you could have brought a hazard into your home masquerading as a soft place to rest! 

Zinus mattresses are made with fiberglass. Fiberglass is sometimes used by manufacturers as a fire retardant, but Zinus LLC has created a mattress that we at Cueto Law believe is defectively designed.

The design of the mattress has caused many consumers’ homes to be contaminated by the fiberglass from their mattresses. 

When consumers removed the zippable mattress cover to wash it, fiberglass was released into their homes.

What is the problem with Fiberglass?

Fiberglass can cause health problems and the destruction of property. 

Families who have suffered from fiberglass contamination have to throw out anything they own that can be soft and have even had to pay to have their homes professionally cleaned. 

They have to pay large sums of money to replace these items, including medical bills.

Common health concerns include

• Rashes on skin
• Eye irritation
• Soreness of the nose and throat
• Stomach irritation
• Bronchitis and Asthma from long-term exposure

What if I own a Zinus Mattress?

If you own a Zinus mattress that has not contaminated your home with fiberglass, we do not recommend throwing it away.

Disposing of the mattress could be throwing away evidence and could cost you the chance of getting compensated.

You can still be part of the lawsuit against Zinus, which is why we do not recommend throwing the mattress away. 

Do not remove the zippable cover!

Instead, you should cease using the mattress and wrap it with tape and heavy plastic. Plainly mark your Zinus Mattress as a hazard so no one accidentally uses it.

Additionally keep any proof of purchase, such as invoices and receipts.

And if it starts leaking?

Check the wrapping you put on the mattress regularly to make sure children or pets have not disturbed it. 

Be aware that even if you do not unzip the cover your home can still become contaminated. In the event that does happen, you can download our free checklist on how to deal with fiberglass contamination.

Help! Fiberglass is in my Home

Have you just discovered small glitter-like pieces of glass all over your home? Is your family complaining of being itchy? Did you recently wash a mattress cover? Sadly, it sounds like your home has been contaminated with fiberglass, and your mattress might be the cause. 

Your bed is supposed to be a place of sanctuary, somewhere to rest and relax. However, if you purchased a Zinus mattress you might have purchased a bed of nightmares. 

Zinus mattresses contain a substance known as fiberglass. Many companies use fiberglass to meet fire retardant manufacturing standards. The fiberglass is never meant to be noticed by the consumer. However, due to what we at Cueto Law believe to be a serious design flaw, many Zinus mattresses contaminate people’s homes with fiberglass.

By simply unzipping a mattress cover to wash, our clients unknowingly unleash glass all over their homes, causing serious risks to their health.

Fiberglass and Your Home

Your home probably makes you feel safe and comfortable. It is your sanctuary and where you like to relax to at the end of the day. For most of us, it’s the only place we can feel safe. Sadly, your mattress can upset that wonderful paradise you’ve built. If fiberglass gets in your home it can turn your world upside down.

Fiberglass is small, almost invisible pieces of glass. There has been a recent trend of manufacturers using it as a fire retardant in mattresses. However, due to what we at Cueto Law believe to be design flaws, these mattresses are contaminating consumers’ homes. 

The most well-known case is Zinus mattresses made by Zinus LLC. Zinus mattresses have covers with zippers.  When consumers remove the cover it releases fiberglass into their homes.

While this is the most well-known case, Cueto Law has gotten reports of mattresses from many different brands contaminating our client’s homes. 

Regardless of what mattress brand brought fiberglass into your home, the results are the same.

What Happens if Fiberglass Contaminates My Home?

If fiberglass contaminates your home, it can turn your world upside down. Many of our clients have had to move out of their houses and find temporary living quarters.

Fiberglass will settle everywhere. Many people report that it looks like a layer of glitter on all their belongings. Couches, beds, and chairs are no longer restful places. It can even get into your HVAC system and circulate through your air. Click here to learn more.

In addition to being expensive, this can be a great challenge for families emotionally, as having to leave your home suddenly can cause a lot of stress and frustration in your life. It is never a good time to lose your relaxing sanctuary.

As if having to find another place to stay wasn’t enough, there are many costs associated with fiberglass contamination. Families have had to throw out or replace all soft belongings.

If your mattress has contaminated your home, make sure to keep track of all associated expenses. These can include:

• Medical bills
• Professional Cleaning
• Replacing Soft Items 
  • Clothing
  • Bedding
  • Towels
  • Upholstered furniture 
  • Carpets and Rugs
  • Soft toys
  • And More
• Temporary Housing

• Eye irritation
• Soreness of the nose and throat

HVAC and Fiberglass

Do you enjoy being cool in the summer? Warm in the winter? Having proper ventilation? If that’s the case then your HVAC system is very important to you. Sadly, if your HVAC system becomes contaminated with fiberglass it might need to be replaced. 

There has been a recent trend in mattress manufacturing towards using fiberglass as a flame retardant. Fiberglass is small pieces of glass, which when released into the air, can look like little bits of glitter on everything you own.

Many consumers have been injured by what we at Cueto Law believe to be design flaws in these mattresses. The most well-known brand is Zinus, which our clients have complained contaminated their homes with fiberglass when they unzipped to wash it. 

However, we have also received complaints about many different mattress brands.

How does Fiberglass get in the HVAC?

Once it is released into someone’s home, the fiberglass becomes airborne and gets on all surfaces. It can wind up in your vents, getting pulled into your system.

This is highly problematic, as once the fiberglass is in your ventilation system, it can continue to circulate fiberglass into the air you and your family breathe. 

What Can I Do about it?

After their HVAC becomes contaminated, many of our clients have had to pay to have their HVACs cleaned or even replaced.

The cost of replacing the system averages $7,000 nationally, which is a burdensome expense. 

As if that wasn’t enough our clients have also experienced other bills associated with fiberglass including

• Medical bills
• Professional Cleaning
• Replacing Soft Items 
  • Clothing
  • Bedding
  • Towels
  • Upholstered furniture 
  • Carpets and Rugs
  • Soft toys
  • And More
• Temporary Housing
• Vet Bills
• And More

Keep records of all your expenses, if fiberglass contaminated your home.

What about health concerns?

Fiberglass can cause many medical problems. If you have come in contact with fiberglass, contact your doctor right away. 

For humans, common consequences can include:

• Rashes on skin
• Eye irritation
• Soreness of the nose and throat
• Stomach irritation
• Bronchitis and Asthma from long term exposure

Make sure to also contact a professional to guarantee your HVAC system does not contain fiberglass, to reduce prolonged exposure.

Facts about Fiberglass in Mattresses

Mattresses are supposed to be a place to rest and relax. Sadly, many families have had their lives upended after their Zinus mattress leaked fiberglass and contaminated their home. Read on to learn more facts about fiberglass in mattresses.

Fiberglass is a common component of many mattresses and acts as a needed fire retardant. However, Zinus LLC, a common bed-in-a-box mattress manufacturer, did not adequately warn their customers of the fiberglass inside their mattress and its problems with leaking and contamination. Additionally, we believe Zinus mattresses are defectively designed which resulted in fiberglass contamination. 

When consumers removed the zippable mattress cover to wash it, fiberglass was released into their homes. Sometimes fiberglass contamination occurred even if consumers did not remove the cover.
