Ashley HomeStore Settlements: Fiberglass, Pricing, Data Breach

Three Ashley Furniture settlements are on the table in 2026. The largest is a $9 million class action settlement covering fiberglass in Ashley, Nectar, DreamCloud, and Siena mattresses, with claims due July 17, 2026. A second settlement resolved deceptive-pricing claims against Ashley HomeStore locations in California, and a third addressed a data breach at stores run by an Ashley franchisee. Both of those smaller cases have already closed to new claims.

The $9 Million Fiberglass Mattress Settlement

This is the one still open. It comes out of Todd v. Ashley Furniture Industries, LLC in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Wisconsin (Case No. 3:24-cv-00615), before Judge William M. Conley. The named defendants are Ashley Furniture Industries, LLC; Ashley Global Retail, LLC; and Resident Home, LLC, which owns the Nectar, DreamCloud, and Siena brands and was acquired by Ashley in March 2024.¹

Plaintiffs alleged the mattresses used fiberglass as a fire-retardant material inside an inner sock around the foam, and that the fibers could pass through the outer cover or escape entirely if a buyer unzipped the cover to clean it. The complaint said this caused property contamination, economic loss, and physical harm, and that the companies failed to warn buyers.² The defendants deny the allegations and any liability, and say they settled to avoid the cost of continued litigation.³

The court granted preliminary approval on March 19, 2026. A final approval hearing is set for September 24, 2026, at 1:00 p.m. CDT in Madison, Wisconsin.⁴

Who Qualifies

You are in the class if you bought a covered mattress in the United States between October 1, 2017, and June 30, 2024. Covered mattresses are those designed, made, distributed, sold, or marketed by the defendants under the Ashley, Nectar, DreamCloud, or Siena brands that contained fiberglass as fire-retardant material in the inner sock.⁵ More than 70 models are affected, including various Ashley Chime, Millennium, and iKidz mattresses along with Nectar Classic, DreamCloud Luxe, and Siena memory foam and hybrid models. The official settlement website lists the full set of model names and item numbers.⁶

How to File a Claim

Claims must be submitted online or postmarked by July 17, 2026. File through MattressClassActionSettlement.com or mail a paper form to the administrator.⁷

What you need depends on how you were notified. If you received an email notice on or around May 6, 2026, with a Unique ID and PIN, you can log in with those credentials and no further documentation is required. If you did not get an email, you need proof of purchase: a sales receipt, store record, or photo of the mattress label showing the SKU, item number, or serial number. If you have no proof of purchase at all, you can still file by providing the brand, approximate purchase date, store location (city and state), mattress size, and model or item number, though the administrator can verify those claims.⁵²

You can submit one claim per affected mattress. The online form does not save progress, so complete it in a single session.⁷

What You Get

Payment comes as a voucher, not cash. Each voucher is good for one purchase at AshleyFurniture.com, NectarSleep.com, DreamCloudSleep.com, or SienaSleep.com, with no minimum order. Vouchers expire one year after distribution, are freely transferable, and can be stacked.⁵⁸

The dollar value of each voucher depends on how many valid claims come in. The $9 million fund is split pro rata among all valid claimants. Separately, the defendants are paying up to $3 million for attorneys’ fees and costs, roughly $380,000 in administration expenses, and up to $85,000 to the named plaintiffs. If the court awards less than the $3 million requested in fees, the difference goes out as a cash payment to class members on top of the vouchers.⁸²

Opting Out or Objecting

If you do not want the voucher and want to keep the right to sue on your own, you must opt out by July 17, 2026. Objections to the settlement must be filed by the same date. Do nothing and you lose both the voucher and the right to sue over the claims the settlement covers.⁹

Why Fiberglass Ended Up in These Mattresses

Every mattress sold in the U.S. must include a fire-retardant barrier, and fiberglass has been a cheap way to meet that rule. Other brands, including Zinus, have faced similar lawsuits over fiberglass escaping mattresses.¹⁰ When the fibers do escape, consumers have reported them spreading through HVAC systems and coating furniture, clothing, and bedding, along with skin rashes, eye irritation, and respiratory problems. Professional cleaning can run into the thousands.¹¹ According to Forbes, all the brands in this settlement stopped using fiberglass by the end of 2023.⁶

California Pricing Settlement (Closed to New Claims)

A separate $750,000 settlement resolved Ryan Cornateanu v. Stoneledge Furniture, LLC (Case No. 21STCV09403) in Los Angeles County Superior Court. Stoneledge runs Ashley HomeStore locations in California and was accused of inflating “original” or “regular” prices at least 10% above invoice prices to make discounts look bigger than they were. Stoneledge denied wrongdoing.¹²

The class covered California buyers at Stoneledge-owned Ashley HomeStores between March 9, 2017, and March 27, 2022, where the advertised price was at least 10% above invoice. Approved claimants receive a pro rata cash payment plus a $35 merchandise voucher good for 180 days at California Stoneledge stores. The claim deadline was February 10, 2026, and the final approval hearing was set for April 21, 2026, so this one is no longer open to new claims.¹³

DSG/Ashley HomeStore Data Breach Settlement (Closed to New Claims)

The third case, Parker v. The Dufresne Spencer Group LLC (Case No. 4:24-cv-02202, U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas), involved The Dufresne Spencer Group, an Ashley franchisee that operates 166 Ashley Furniture HomeStore locations.¹⁴¹⁵¹⁶

Affected individuals could claim up to $500 for documented out-of-pocket losses, up to $2,500 for extraordinary losses tied to the breach, up to $80 for lost time (four hours at $20), or a flat $45 alternative cash payment, plus two years of three-bureau credit monitoring.¹⁵ The claim deadline was March 19, 2026, and the final fairness hearing was held on March 4, 2026. The settlement website does not yet confirm whether the court granted final approval or when payments will go out.¹⁷

If you were affected by that breach or the California pricing case and missed the deadline, the settlements will not accept a late claim. The fiberglass case is the only one still taking claims, and July 17, 2026, is the date to work against.
