United States law requires all new mattresses, pillows, upholstered chairs, and similar stuffed articles to be sold with a tag, the law label, describing the fabric and filling.
The tag previously read, "Do not remove under penalty of law," which caused some consumers to believe that they could be arrested for cutting it off.
The wording has since been changed to reflect that it is legal for the consumer to remove the tag from a mattress after purchase.
