The Federal Trade Commission announced that it entered into a settlement with Resident Home, the parent company of Nectar Sleep, and Resident Home's owner, resolving charges that they made false, misleading, or unsupported claims that their DreamCloud mattresses were made in the United States. As part of the settlement, the defendants agreed to pay $753,000.

In a statement, Samuel Levine, the Director of the FTC's Bureau of Consumer Protection, said, "Baseless claims that products are made in the USA hurt not only consumers but also honest businesses that build their products here.  Unfortunately, we see too many repeat offenders like Resident Home, but thanks to the FTC's recently finalized Made in USA Labeling Rule, companies that abuse these labels will face civil penalties in addition to other relief. We will not hesitate to seek strong penalties against Made in USA fraud."
