A federal court has preliminarily approved a $9 million fiberglass class-action settlement covering Ashley, Nectar, DreamCloud, and Siena mattresses bought between October 1, 2017 and June 30, 2024. Here is who is eligible, how the vouchers work, and the deadlines.
A U.S. federal court has preliminarily approved a $9 million class-action settlement in Todd v. Ashley Furniture Industries, LLC, covering certain Ashley, Nectar, DreamCloud, and Siena mattresses sold between October 1, 2017 and June 30, 2024. The case is pending in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Wisconsin (Judge William M. Conley). The official settlement site is the source of record; this article summarizes the practical terms.
Earlier reporting that you may have read covered older, individually filed Ashley lawsuits (deceptive pricing, late delivery, the 2020 fiberglass cleanup story). Those cases are largely superseded by the consolidated 2026 settlement below.

You are likely a class member if all three apply:
The full product/SKU list is published on the official settlement site. If you received an email or postcard notice, no proof of purchase is required - the claim form pre-fills your eligible models.
Federal flammability regulations (16 CFR 1633) require mattresses to resist open-flame ignition. Many bed-in-a-box manufacturers met the rule by wrapping the foam core in an inner sock woven with fiberglass strands. The sock is meant to stay inside the cover. The complaint alleged the sock can shed fibers when the outer cover is unzipped or laundered, contaminating the home and causing skin irritation, respiratory symptoms, and expensive professional cleanups.
If you still own one of the named mattresses: do not unzip or remove the outer cover. Spot-clean the cover in place. The CPSC has issued general guidance on fiberglass-containing mattresses consistent with this advice.
If you would rather not be bound by the settlement - for example, you plan to sue individually - you must mail an exclusion request by July 17, 2026. Settlement-administrator phone: 1-877-268-2879.
Each approved claim receives at least one voucher per eligible mattress, redeemable at the brand sites listed above. The exact dollar value is pro rata - the $9M fund is split across the total number of approved claims, so per-claim value is unknown until claims close. Vouchers are not cash and are non-transferable; they expire one year after issue. Out-of-pocket cleanup costs (HVAC remediation, professional cleaning, replacement furniture) are not separately reimbursed under this settlement.

Yes. Todd v. Ashley Furniture Industries, LLC is a $9 million fiberglass class-action settlement preliminarily approved in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Wisconsin. It covers Ashley, Nectar, DreamCloud, and Siena mattresses bought between October 1, 2017 and June 30, 2024. Final approval is set for September 24, 2026.
Selected Ashley, Nectar, DreamCloud, and Siena models whose inner fire-barrier sock contained fiberglass. The complete model and item-number list is published on the official settlement site at mattressclassactionsettlement.com. The widely reported Ashley Chime line is on the list.
The total $9M fund is divided pro rata across approved claims, so the per-claim dollar value will not be set until the claim deadline (July 17, 2026) closes. Vouchers are redeemable at AshleyFurniture.com, NectarSleep.com, DreamCloudSleep.com, or SienaSleep.com and expire one year after distribution.
If you received a class notice email or postcard, no - your claim ID and details are on file. Otherwise you can self-attest the model and approximate purchase date; the administrator may request additional information for high-value or duplicate claims.
The settlement does not separately compensate medical or remediation costs. If your damages are large, talk to a plaintiff-side products-liability attorney about opting out (deadline July 17, 2026) and pursuing an individual claim.
Those were separate, individually filed cases (e.g. Aberl, Perisic). They are unrelated to the 2026 fiberglass class action and do not affect your eligibility for this settlement.
