As of October 4, 2023, there is no current class-action lawsuit against Nectar Mattress specifically related to fiberglass. However, there have been individual lawsuits filed against the company alleging that its mattresses contain fiberglass that can cause skin irritation and other health problems.
In 2019, a California woman filed a lawsuit against Nectar Mattress alleging that she suffered skin irritation, respiratory problems, and other health problems after sleeping on a Nectar mattress for several months. The woman’s lawsuit was later dismissed without prejudice, which means that she could refile it if she could address certain technical deficiencies in her original complaint.
In 2020, a New Jersey man filed a lawsuit against Nectar Mattress alleging that he suffered skin irritation and other health problems after sleeping on a Nectar mattress for several months. The man’s lawsuit is still ongoing.
In addition to these individual lawsuits, there have also been several reports of consumers experiencing skin irritation and other health problems after sleeping on Nectar mattresses. These reports have been documented on various online forums and consumer complaint websites.
Nectar Mattress has denied all of the allegations against it and has stated that its mattresses do not contain fiberglass. The company has also stated that it is committed to the safety of its products and that it takes all allegations of harm seriously.
It is important to note that the presence of fiberglass in mattresses is not illegal. Fiberglass is a common material used in fire retardants, and it is found in many mattresses, including those made by Nectar Mattress. However, some people may be sensitive to fiberglass and may experience skin irritation or other health problems if they are exposed to it.
If you are concerned about the potential for fiberglass exposure from your Nectar mattress, you can take a few precautions. First, you can wash the mattress cover frequently in hot water. You can also use a mattress encasement, which is a special zippered cover that can help to prevent fiberglass from escaping from the mattress.
If you experience any skin irritation or other health problems after sleeping on your Nectar mattress, you should see a doctor. You should also contact Nectar Mattress and report your concerns.
