Sealy Bedding Thread Count Settlement: What Was Available to Claim

The examples in the notice are Ultimate Indulgence, Premium Comfort, Cool Comfort, Premium Cooling, and Superior Cooling. The list is not necessarily complete, so the packaging details matter.

• The product had the Sealy name.
• Its packaging listed a 1250 thread count.
• You bought it anywhere in the United States from October 19, 2016 through October 30, 2025.

The payment may be lower or higher than $5 per product because payments can be adjusted proportionally based on the money left in the settlement fund and the total valid claims.

• Without supporting proof of purchase, you can claim up to eight qualifying products per household. That is up to $40 at the stated $5-per-product rate.
• With supporting proof of purchase, there is no stated product limit.
• You may combine purchases claimed without proof and purchases claimed with proof. The eight-product household limit still applies to the no-proof portion.

Submitting a Claim Form is required to receive a cash payment.

• Complete and submit a Claim Form by May 12, 2026.
• The notice says forms are available online, by calling 1-855-858-5886, or by writing to the Settlement Administrator at P.O. Box 301134, Los Angeles, CA 90030-1134.
• The notice expressly says claims may be filed online. It does not clearly state whether a completed paper claim form can be mailed.

The notice does not identify which records count as supporting proof of purchase. It also does not give further document-submission details in the text provided.

• For up to eight products per household, the notice does not require supporting proof-of-purchase documents.
• For an unlimited number of products, it requires supporting proof-of-purchase documents.

The $750,000 is the defendant’s total payment limit for the settlement, not an amount set aside separately for each claimant.

• The defendant agreed to pay a total settlement fund of $750,000.
• Notice and administration costs, court-approved attorneys’ fees and expenses, and service awards are deducted before class-member payments.
• The remaining fund is divided among people with valid claims, and individual payments can be adjusted proportionally.

A hearing date does not mean that the settlement has been finally approved or that payments will be sent then.

• The court is scheduled to consider final approval at 10:00 a.m. on February 11, 2026.
• If the settlement is approved, appeals may still occur.
• The notice does not provide a payment date and says appeals can take time, perhaps more than one year.

Excluding yourself means leaving the settlement. An exclusion request must be submitted online or mailed with a January 21, 2026 deadline, and a person who excludes themselves cannot receive a settlement payment.

• If you do nothing, you will not receive a payment.
• If the court approves the settlement, you will still be bound by it unless you excluded yourself.
• That means you cannot bring, continue, or participate in another lawsuit against ATC or the other released parties over the issues the settlement resolves.

You cannot object if you exclude yourself, because the settlement no longer applies to you.

• Objecting means telling the court why you disagree with the settlement or part of it while remaining in the settlement class.
• An objection must be submitted online or mailed by January 21, 2026.
• An objection needs specified information, including identifying information, a statement or documents showing class membership, reasons and supporting documents, and a signature.
