A class action settlement was reached against Sealy over allegations that certain bedding products were mislabeled with inflated thread counts. Consumers who purchased Sealy-branded products — including "Ultimate Indulgence," "Premium Comfort," "Cool Comfort," "Premium Cooling," or "Superior Cooling" lines — with 1250 thread count labeling between October 19, 2016 and October 30, 2025 could have claimed $5 per item with proof of purchase, or up to $40 maximum without proof. The claim deadline of May 12, 2026 has passed.
