Pros & Cons

ASI is the least expensive of the brand. It provides a lot to the shoppers.

This mattress is excellent for folks who prefer

• A mattress made from plant-based organic pure material
• Abed more responsive than regular memory foam
• Suffering from chronic back pain and need a firm surface to rest
• A cover that is removable and washable
• Back and stomach sleeping positions

This AS1 is not so ideal for the customers

• Who are strict side sleepers
• Who are petite. It may be too firm for them
• Who prefer to sleep on a thick mattress

Firmness

AS1 mattress is the firmest option from Amerisleep. On a firmness scale, it is on the harder side, measuring 7-8 on a scale of 10. Though AS1 is not solid rock hard, it gives quite a firm feel. This strong firmness provides adequate pressure relief to the shoulder and lumber areas for a healthy spinal alignment.

Material & Construction

AS1 from Amerisleep is the firmest from the brand and the thinnest, with a height of 10 inches. AS1 is structured and has just two layers with a removable cover. Its sleep-inducing layers are designed to give you a good night’s sleep for years to come. It is mainly designed for back and stomach sleepers and provides gentle but firm support.

• Cover:This top-most, ultra-breathable cover helps you to sleep cool. It is zippered, removable, and washable. Washing makes it hygienic, and it’s easy to remove the stains from spills. You can choose any mattress protector for the new mattress for extra safety. Celliant, a cooling and blood flow-promoting substance, is used in this product.
  Underneath the cover, there are two layers constituting the AS1 Mattress.
• Layer1: This is a responsive layer with an open cell structure (Bio-Pur memory foam). Besides helping you sleep cool, it also contours your body to relieve pressure points. You won’t feel stuck in the mattress since it bounces back quickly. The thickness of the layer is 2 inches with a density of 4lb.
• Layer2: The 8-inch base layer (with brand proprietary Bio-Core Foam) provides overall support. It prevents sagging and soft spots that often develop in a mattress over time. It has made the mattress durable for decades.

Mattress Review and Rating

Repositioning

The capacity of the AS1 to contour to the body and reduce motion transfer sometimes is an obstruction to ease of movement on the bed. It is not necessarily a quicksand-type feeling but has minimal responsiveness. Overall, the AS1 has an average rating for repositioning & responsiveness.

Comfort, Back Support, Pressure Relief

The material used for the top covering is ultra-breathable to prevent heat build-up. The Refresh Cover keeps you cool and helps you perform better and have more energy throughout the day. Minerals are used in this scientifically created fabric to convert your natural body heat into far infrared energy. This sort of energy improves blood circulation, which aids in muscle recovery and sleep quality. The usage of Bio-Pur material in the mattress helps in a comfortable and relaxed sleep. Pressure points are relieved due to the ability of the layer to contour around the body. It has an open-cell structure that lets more air out than regular foam. The prevention of sinkage and sagging of the mattress is possible due to the base layer support. To summarize, you will be able to sleep cooler and enjoy the comfort you love, as it is structured to enhance sleep quality. It alleviates pressure points and prevents allergies due to its eco-friendly materials.

Cooling & Temperature Control

Sleepers in any style don’t dip too much into the AS1 because of its firmness. It allows better temperature control as air circulation is accessible around the body, activating its natural cooling process. The breathable cotton cover also helps with temperature control. The cover fabric uses minerals to help convert your natural body heat into far infrared energy. Increased blood circulation promotes better relaxation of muscles and promotes sleep.

The use of Bio Pur material is more breathable than traditional memory foam. The plant-based material’s open-cell design also helps remove the body heat more than memory foam, adding fast cooling while sleeping.

Motion Isolation and Sharing a Bed

The Bio-Pur layer helps in maximum cushioning support. The mattress bounces back and regains its original shape in no time. It makes moving around easy. It should be a decent mattress for couples, as moving about at night shouldn’t bother one another.

Edge Support

The firmness acts as good edge support despite having no separate edge support. The base layer offers good overall support near the edges. It doesn’t make you feel unstable when you are at the edge of the bed. Couples should find the mattress appealing since it allows them to use as much of the mattress as possible.

Recommendation based on sleeping style

No matter what position we sleep in, we all need to sleep well so that our bodies can heal and rejuvenate. There are three sleep postures: Side, back, and stomach. Therefore, all three have different needs and specific experiences regarding the comfort, support, and flexibility that the mattress should offer them.

• Side sleepers: This might not be the right mattress for you if you are a side sleeper. The firmness of the AS1 mattress may form pressure points near the shoulders and hips of side sleepers.
• Back Sleepers:This firm mattress with proper contouring is best suitable for back sleepers. However, if you are a lightweight sleeper, your hip may get optimum cushioning. It may mess with your spinal alignment. But heavier sleepers may find the mattress comfortable enough.
• Stomach sleepers: For stomach sleepers, this can be the ideal mattress. The hips get the right cushioning support. It helps to keep the spine aligned. However, the mattress is suitable for light and average-weight stomach sleepers. The sleeper won’t sink into the mattress, even though it is memory foam.
• Combination Sleepers: People who love to change position frequently while sleeping will also like the AS1. Any combination sleeper preferring medium to medium-firm beds can check AS2 or AS3.

Pros & Cons

AS2 mattress from Amerisleep offers a lot to the shoppers.

The ideal customers for AS2 mattresses are

• those suffering from back pain
• those who like an option between all foam and hybrid
• those who are heavyweight
• those who love plant-based natural products
• hot sleepers
• those who suffer from pain in the neck and lumbar areas

The not so ideal customers for AS2 mattresses are

• those who prefer thick mattresses over thin
• strict side or combination sleepers preferring Side sleeping
• Those who want to sink in rather than feel like floating.

Firmness

AS2 from Amerisleep is a medium-firm mattress. It falls evenly between firm and medium. AS2 mattress gets a score of 5-6 on a scale of 10. It provides a bit more compliance than its brother AS1.

AS2 caters to back and stomach sleepers. Few side sleepers feel comfortable using AS2 as they switch sides frequently.

AS2 Hybrid: In principle, the same mattress, the AS2 hybrid has an extra feature – a coil system. The difference is minor. The bounciness is more compared to the full-foam AS2. It is a good option for heavier individuals that need more support.

Material & Construction

The AS2 from Amerisleep is a three-layer mattress with 12-inch in height.

• Cover: The top layer is ultra-breathable material to prevent heat build-up. It makes the mattress ideal for people who sleep hot. It is a zippered cover, removable and washable. Washing makes it hygienic, and it’s easy to remove the stains from spills. You can choose any mattress protector for the new mattress for extra safety. Celliant, a cooling and blood flow-promoting substance, is used in this product.
• Layer 1: This 2-inch layer offers an attractive cooling effect due to Bio-Pur’s open-cell structure. It contours to the body and is instrumental in relieving pressure points. It bounces back so fast that you won’t feel stuck at night.
• Layer 2: HIVE technology helps to enable the 3-inch HIVE transition layer. It has hundreds of foam hexagons with five distinct comfort zones. The comfort zones provide extra cushioning to the head, shoulders & back, hips, upper leg &knee, and lower leg.
• Layer 3: The Bio-core 7-inch layer makes the mattress durable and provides overall support. It has a density of 1.8lbexcessive sinkage and sagging due to pressure.

The Hybrid variety has a different structure after Layer 1—

The height is 12-inch.

• Layer 2: This Affinity Foam transition layer, which is firm and supportive, adds durability to the mattress and gives general support to the coils. It inhibits excessive sinkage and drooping and the formation of soft patches due to pressure over time. The mattress is popular with back and stomach sleepers due to its layer.
• Layer 3: This 8-inch pocketed coil layer provides responsive bounce. This layer provides comfort, pressure reduction, and motion isolation for the sleeper. It features a sturdy coil edge support that makes it simpler to get in and out of bed. For further help, a small layer of transition foam runs down the sidewalls. It also improves the bed’s durability and resilience.
• Layer 4: This 1-inch layer adds durability to the mattress and offers general support for the coils. It avoids excessive drooping and sinkage as a result of pressure.

Mattress Review and Rating

Repositioning

The all-foam model AS2 is average in repositioning and responsiveness.

In the Hybrid variant, pocket-coil springs give responsive support with additional bounce.

Comfort, Back Support, Pressure Relief

The all-foam mattress is specially grouped into five targeted comfort zones to provide extra support to the pressure points at your head, shoulders, back, hip and legs. It helps in the alignment of the spine. The ultra-breathable layer on the top and the Bio-Pur layer helps to sleep cool all night. The Bio-Pur layer responsiveness relieves pressure sores and prevents heat build-up.

Pocket-coil springs give responsive support with an additional bounce in the Hybrid version. The spring layer comprises long-lasting pocket coils that won’t droop or develop soft areas over time. Amerisleep’s pocketed coil technology, on the other hand, provides bouncing support from head to toe, keeping the body straight and raised. These coils gently compress to alleviate pressure spots that cause discomfort. The pocketed coil design includes double-density coils on your mattress’s left and right edges to provide edge support.

Cooling & Temperature Control

Temperature control on the AS2 is slightly better for a memory foam bed. It is due to a blend of factors like

• The Medium Firmness and mild contouring leave space for cold air to circulate the body.
• The open-cell of proprietary Bio-Pur memory foam cuts down, to a great extent, the heat retention in the top layer.
• On the top, the cover is very breathable, helping in cooling.
• In the Hybrid variant, individual coils allow for more ventilation beneath the higher foam layers to keep you cool.

Motion Isolation and Sharing a Bed

The mattress is particularly good at keeping motion transfer at the minimum. The Bio-Pur layer gives a bouncy effect and is very responsive. This layer absorbs the motion, and the mattress regains its original shape in a few seconds of disturbances. The foam layers inhibit any noise produced by moving around.

Individual coils limit motion transfer and provide a more localized cushion in the Hybrid version.

Edge Support

The AS2 mattress offers proper edge support around its perimeter. The HIVE layer’s extra backing at the head and foot provides more excellent edge support around those regions. The 7-inch base layer gives ample all-over support along the edges. It does not let to feel sinkage when sitting or sleeping along the perimeter.

The Hybrid Model also has firm coil edge support.

Recommendation based on sleeping style

No matter what position we sleep in, we all need to sleep well so our bodies can heal and rejuvenate. There are three sleep postures: Side, back, and stomach sleepers. Therefore, all three have different needs and specific experiences regarding the comfort, support, and flexibility that the mattress should offer them.

• Side sleepers: This mattress might not be the right choice for side sleepers. Side sleepers might experience pressure sores at their hips and shoulders. It can hamper their spinal alignment.
• Back Sleepers: The AS2 mattress is best suited for back sleepers. It provides ample support to the back and hips. The hips also get proper cushioning and keep the spine properly aligned.
• Stomach sleepers: Stomach sleepers can get optimum support and cushion at their hips. However, stomach sleepers might as well like a firmer mattress than AS2.
• Combination Sleepers: Sleepers changing positions frequently also can comfortably use the AS2. Combination sleepers preferring side sleeping positions can choose from AS3 or AS3 hybrid.
• Heavy Sleepers: an AS2 Hybrid is a good option.

Pros & Cons

AS3 from Amerisleep is a pretty simple model, yet it is the brand’s best-seller. It is so popular amongst the shoppers that there is always a supply shortage. It offers a lot to its customers.

• Recommendation for sleepers, who
• Sleep in different styles
• Like to choose from the all-foam and Hybrid options available
• Use plant-based natural material
• Are Hot Sleepers (particularly the AS3 Hybrid)
• Prefer deeper contouring
• Enjoy a bouncy bed (the AS3 Hybrid)

And less ideal for sleepers, who

• Are edge sleepers as edge support is not that great
• Preferring a slow-moving foam feel
• Lie down on their stomachs
• Like a too soft or too firm mattress

Firmness

It might be subjective to tell if a mattress is firm or soft. All beds should support weight, promote appropriate spinal alignment, and give a comfortable and restful night’s sleep. Whether a mattress is fluffy and spongy (what mattress companies call soft or plush) or less so is a matter of personal preference (what firms call firm).

AS3 comes in 2 varieties– an all-memory foam mattress and a hybrid.

AS3 All-Foam is defined as medium-firm compared to the industry standard for determining firmness with s. For back sleepers, this is the firmness that works best. The top layer of Bio-Pur foam provides mild body contouring and pressure alleviation, while the spine feels well supported. The AS3 is one of the finest mattresses for back sleepers among the Amerisleep series.

AS3 Hybrid is also a medium-firm memory foam hybrid mattress that offers a great combination of comfort and support. The AS3 Hybrid is neither too hard nor too soft. The Bio-Pur foam comfort layer is quite soft, yet you can immediately feel the more rigid support layers beneath as you press into the foam. The AS3 Hybrid provides a fantastic blend of comfort and support, ideal for back sleepers. Our hips sank precisely the appropriate amount into the foam comfort layer, and the foam gives some lovely body contouring. Meanwhile, the coils’ zoning provides extra support under the lumbar area, assisting in maintaining good spinal alignment.

Material & Construction

The AS3 from Amerisleep is a three-layer mattress with 12-inch in height.

• Cover: The top layer consists of ultra-breathable material called Celliant to prevent heat retention. It makes the mattress ideal for people who sleep hot. The coating is also soft-to-touch and lightweight.
• Layer 1: This 3-inch layer contours around the body offers an attractive cooling effect due to Bio-Pur’s open-cell structure. It also helps in relieving pressure points. It’s also CertiPUR-US certified, which means it’s low in volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
• Layer 2: This 2-inch Hive Transition layer provides added firmness and support through its zoned system. This layer gives extra comfort to your hips and shoulders and support to your head, back, and legs. This layer also reinforces the responsiveness of the Bio-Pur layer.
• Layer 3: This 7-inch layer of dense Bio- Core base makes the mattress durable and provides overall support. It prevents excessive sinkage and sagging due to pressure over time.

 The Hybrid variety has a Pocketed Coil Layer and another additional layer. It is also 12-inch in height.

The Cover and Layer 1 are the same for the Hybrid model.

• Layer 2: The Amerisleep AS3 Hybrid has a primary support layer comprised of zoned, pocketed coils beneath the Bio-Pur foam comfort layer. The springs give general structure, bounce, and support, while the zoning provides extra lumbar support by making the core of the mattress stiffer than the remainder of the bed. The coils are encased in foam, which serves to improve the mattress’s edge support.
• Layer 3: Underneath the coils is a base layer comprised of high-density foam. This layer is for more support and structure in order to maintain integrity.

Mattress Review and Rating

Repositioning

Tossing and turning on the AS3 (both models) while sleeping is neither effortless nor particularly difficult. Even though the memory foam takes time to return to its original shape, the mattress is still medium in firmness. AS3 does not give sleepers trapped in feeling lying in one specific position on the bed. AS3 has moderate responsiveness.

Comfort, Back Support, Pressure Relief

Thanks to this AS3 mattress, the joints are cushioned, and pressure is eased in crucial areas. The mattress’s zoned firmness relieves the shoulders and hips while also supporting the head, back, and legs—this aids in maintaining proper spine alignment. The top layer is ultra-breathable, while the Bio-Pur layer keeps you cool all night. The responsive Bio-Pur coating not only prevents heat build-up but also reduces pressure sores.

Maintaining a good spinal position while sleeping is essential for healthy back support. This implies that the mattress must carry the same posture of the spine as when you are standing. Pain, discomfort, lack of circulation, repeated tossing, and other issues can occur when a mattress pushes back against your body with too much power in a concentrated region. In general, side sleepers should be most concerned with “pressure points,” as this is the position in which your body’s weight is dispersed across the lowest surface area. The capacity of a bed to relieve stress in the shoulders, hips, and lower back is referred to as pressure release. The ability of a mattress to accomplish this is often determined by your weight, sleeping position, and body structure.

Unfortunately, no mattress will provide both of these things equally well to all sleepers. In particular, spinal alignment and pressure-relieving abilities vary among sleepers with different weights, body shapes, and sleep positions.

• Back Sleepers: The AS3 is Amerisleep’s medium-firm mattress, which is the firmness that most back sleepers prefer. The top layer of Bio-Pur foam provided moderate body contouring and pressure alleviation, while the spine felt well supported. The AS3 is one of the finest mattresses for back sleepers among the Amerisleep series.
  The AS3 Hybrid also is medium-firm. It provides a fantastic blend of comfort and support, making it ideal for back sleeping. Furthermore, the coils’ zoning provides additional support under the lumbar area, which aids in maintaining good spinal alignment.
• Side sleepers: Side sleeping on the Amerisleep AS3 and AS3 Hybrid is also quite pleasant. The thick layer of Bio-Pur foam cushions the joints, resulting in nearly no strain on the shoulders and hips for sleepers. Folks who like a plusher mattress may look at the AS4 or AS5 versions.
• Stomach sleepers: Both the all-foam and hybrid varieties of the Amerisleep AS3 do not feel like a good fit for stomach sleeping. The hips sink deep into the mattress due to the thick layer of Bio-Pur foam, which pushes the spine out of alignment. Folks who sleep on their stomach may want to opt for a more supportive mattress for stomach sleepers.
• Heavy sleepers: On the Amerisleep AS3, heavyweight sleepers who weigh more than 230 pounds should get spinal support and pressure reduction. Folks who weigh more than that should opt for a mattress that is more supportive for heavy people.
  The Amerisleep AS3 Hybrid, with its zoned coils, provides appropriate spinal support for heavyweight back sleepers. Heavyweight side sleepers are more likely to have discomfort around the shoulder and hip because they may press through the softer layers into the more rigid support layers underneath. For heavyweight stomach sleepers, the Amerisleep AS3 Hybrid is definitely not supportive enough; they’ll do better on a more supportive mattress for heavier persons.

Cooling & Temperature Control

With excellent motion isolation and contouring, there is a flip side too. AS3 from Amerisleep holds more body heat than AS1 or AS2. As the body sinks deep into the mattress, air circulation around the body is minimized, and cooling is affected. Moreover, as the memory foam is thicker, that layer can hold up more heat during sleeping at night.

With the open-cell design and cotton-blend cover, the AS3 dissipates heat. With this, AS3 is ordinary for temperature control and a problem for hot sleepers.

There are various design aspects on the Amerisleep AS3 Hybrid mattress that help it sleep cooler: The open-celled Bio-Pur foam provides for superb ventilation than standard foams, and the coils allow for plenty of airflows throughout the mattress’s middle.

Motion Isolation and Sharing a Bed

The mattress is pretty good at minimizing motion transfer. A thicker memory foam layer enhances motion isolation capabilities. The Bio-Pur layer is very responsive and gives a bouncy effect. The foam layers also inhibit any kind of noise produced due to moving around.

The AS3 Hybrid is excellent at reducing motion transmission. This should be a nice mattress for couples since partners should not disturb each other too much throughout the night.

Edge Support

The AS3 mattress offers adequate edge support around its perimeter. The thicker foam layer makes the bed edges a bit softer. Especially heavier people may find the edges somewhat unstable. However, the 7-inch base layer gives all-over support along the edges.

Strong coils and a foam encasement combine in the Amerisleep AS3 Hybrid mattress to help users feel safe while sitting and resting near the mattress’s borders.

Recommendation based on sleeping style

No matter what position we sleep in, we all need to sleep well so our bodies can heal and rejuvenate. The fact is, we shrink by one to two inches during the day. This phenomenon is explained by the compaction of the intervertebral discs following a loss of liquid. The fluid restores the discs during the night. For this to work, sleeping in a good position is essential. What do we mean by a good position? There are three sleep postures: Side, back, and stomach sleepers, and then some who may prefer a combination of such postures. All three have different needs and, therefore, specific experiences regarding the comfort, support, and flexibility that the mattress should offer them.

• Side sleepers:The majority of people sleep on the side. In this position, most of the weight of the body rests on the shoulders, hips, and legs. It is, therefore, important that the area of the body can sink properly into the mattress while the waist needs to be supported and the spine aligned. This avoids waking up with pain in the neck and back. The areas that support the neck and pelvis should be flexible and reduce pressure on these areas.
  For side sleepers, the AS3 mattress (both variants) is ideal. The transition layer gives the hips and shoulders more support. This prevents pressure from building up in critical areas. If you’re a bigger person, though, you might choose softer mattresses than AS3.
• Back Sleepers:If you are more of a sleeper lying on your back, it is also necessary that your shoulders and hips can sink far enough into the mattress to avoid painful arches.
  Back sleepers will benefit from the AS3 mattress. The body’s weight is distributed uniformly, which aids in good spinal alignment. The lower back gets extra padding because of the zoned support.
  The zoned support in the coils of the Hybrid version is meant to retain the spine in a neutral posture and provide the pushback support that most guys want. For added support, some heavy-back sleepers may prefer something a little firmer.
• Stomach sleepers: In the case of sleeping on your stomach, a less flexible mattress with a good level of firmness is most suitable. This prevents your stomach from sinking in too far, which would reduce your body movements and lead to curvature. This leads to shoulder problems and tension in the neck.
  AS3 should provide optimal support and cushion at the hips for stomach sleepers. The hips should not sag excessively. This maintains good spine alignment. A firm mattress, alternatively, can be better for strict stomach sleepers.
  The pocketed coils in the Hybrid model should provide some support, but larger stomach sleepers may find this bed to be excessively soft for this posture.
• Combination Sleepers-Those who alternate between various positions: Are you one of those people who exhaust the entire range of styles by going from back to stomach, then to the side, then back again in a single night? You are not alone. Studies reveal that majority of people change their position about 20 times a night.
  AS3 is appropriate for persons who toss and turn when sleeping, especially those who are low weight or medium weight.
  Because it features a fantastic blend of pressure relief and support, the AS3 Hybrid has a lot to offer combination sleepers. Sleepers should be able to move about without feeling trapped in the bed if the mattress is more responsive.
• Heavy Sleepers:  Heavy folks, especially those who weigh more than 250 pounds, will not find AS3 to be very comfortable. They can certainly choose different varieties, such as AS4 or AS5, depending on their needs.
  With the added support provided by the coils, the AS3 Hybrid is preferable for heavyweight back sleepers.

• Guys who prefer firmer mattresses

Firmness

Whether a mattress feels firm or soft is relatively subjective. All beds should support body weight, promote healthy spinal alignment, and ensure comfortable and restful sleeping. Whether a mattress is fluffy and plush (what mattress companies call soft or plush) or less so (what companies call firm) is purely defined based on personal preferences. Compared to the industry standard for determining firmness, Amerisleep AS4 is medium-soft.

AS4 is the second bed made of full foam in Amerisleep’s mattress line, after AS1. Designed basically for strict side sleepers, the AS4 is also proper for combination sleepers changing postures frequently during sleep.

AS4, with medium softness, has a sagging problem with heavy people. They tend to sink deep into the bed, getting a suffocating feel.

Your sleeping surface is quite crucial for your comfort. The Refresh Cover in AS4 comprises a piece of fabric with exceptional energy transmission properties. It takes heat away from your skin, giving you a refreshingly chilly sensation.

Additionally, the Bio-Pur material, made from plants, keeps you cool all night. It has an open-cell architecture that enables more air to flow, unlike regular foam. More excellent sleep, less sweat, and less tossing and turning benefits increased airflow.

Note: the measure of firmness is relative to the body weight. We are giving the industry standards related to moderate-weight persons.

Material & Construction

The AS4 mattress is built entirely of foam, with three layers totaling 12 inches in height. The thick comfort layer of the memory foam gives the bed its feel, allowing the sleeper to sink into the mattress for pressure alleviation. The covers for all of the Amerisleep mattresses are comprised of a soft polyester, Celliant, and spandex combination. Not to worry about the surface bunching up when you shift positions on the mattress since it has an elastic material that snaps back into place fast. A 4-inch layer of Bio-Pur memory foam makes up the AS4’s comfort layer. This layer allows the sleeper to sink in for pressure alleviation while still providing the characteristic memory foam shaping sensation. To help in mattress cooling, Amerisleep employs this particular memory foam with an open-cell structure in all of their mattresses. The Affinity layer is beneath the comfort layer. It’s made up of a 1-inch layer of poly-foam with a convoluted (eggshell) pattern. This design enables space for air to move through the mattress, allowing for better temperature management and cooling. This layer is a little firmer; it serves as a transition layer between the AS4’s comfort and foundation layers. The mattress rests on a 7-inch high-density poly foam foundation. This firm support layer serves as the mattress’s base, providing deep compression support to the sleeper. The foundation also provides the mattress’s form, which also adds some resilience to the entire construction.

• Layer 1: This 4-inch layer contours the body and offers a pleasing cooling effect due to the open cell structure of Bio-Pur. This comfort layer bounces back fast so that you won’t feel stuck in the mattress. It also helps in relieving pressure points.
• Layer 2: This 1-inch transition layer provides added firmness and support through its zoned system with HIVE technology. This layer gives extra comfort to your hips and shoulders and support to your head, back, and legs. It also reinforces the responsiveness of the Bio-Pur layer.
• Layer 3: This 7-inch Bio-core base layer makes the mattress durable for decades and provides overall support. It prevents excessive sinkage and sagging due to pressure.

The three layers of the AS4 are wrapped in a very soft cover made of ultra-breathable material to prevent heat retention. It makes the mattress ideal for folks who sleep hot. This cover is also soft-to-touch and lightweight.

Mattress Review and Rating

Repositioning

Repositioning means that sleepers can change position quickly. With memory foam mattresses and softer foam mattresses, it is harder for the sleeper to shift positions with the sinking-in feature. Amerisleep’s Bio-Pur foam, similar to Memory foam, moves slowly to regain its shape as pressure moves away from it. Such a slow degree of responsiveness means remaining stagnant at one place. This puts up blockades to ease movement on the bed surface. On the other hand, this feature is favorable for motion isolation and pressure relief. So the AS4 has moderate to low repositioning and responsiveness.

Comfort, Back Support, Pressure Relief

Evaluating whether a mattress provides good back support or spinal alignment and pressure relief are extremely important in choosing a mattress. The v to good back support is maintaining proper spinal alignment while you sleep. It means that the bed should hold your spine in roughly the same position it is in when you’re standing. When a mattress presses back against your body with too much force in a concentrated area, the result can be aches, soreness, loss of circulation, excessive tossing, and other problems. In general, such “pressure points” are the most significant concern for side sleepers since that’s how your body’s weight is distributed over the limited area. Pressure relief refers to a bed’s ability to alleviate tension at the shoulders, hips, and lower back. The power of a given mattress to do this will generally depend on your weight, sleep position, and body shape. Another concern is for heavyweight sleepers whether the foam version is firm enough to support the weight and not allow sagging to the bottom support layer.

Unfortunately, no mattress will provide both things equally well to all sleepers. In particular, spinal alignment and pressure-relieving abilities vary among sleepers with different weights, body shapes, and sleep positions.

AS4 mattress provides extra cushioning with a deeper foam layer and relieves pressure in the key areas. The foam layer gives a sinking effect and is comfortable for lightweight sleepers. The ultra-breathable top layer and the Bio-Pur layer helps to sleep fantastic all night. Apart from preventing heat build-up, the responsive Bio-Pur layer also relieves pressure sores. The zoned support of the transition layer helps to keep the spine aligned properly.

• Back Sleepers: People sleeping on their back tend to require more support — particularly around the hips, which may sink into softer mattresses and prevent proper spinal alignment. Back sleepers in AS4 don’t obtain enough spinal support (especially lumbar support). The softness of this mattress causes hips to sink in and drag the spine out of alignment.
• Side sleepers: The AS4 is a medium-soft mattress ideal for average-weight side sleepers because it allows you to sink deeply into the bed for lots of pressure relief. The thick comfort layer of Bio-Pur foam allows sleepers to sink into the mattress for body contouring and pressure relief. Sleepers feel almost no pressure around the shoulder and hip—the best mattresses for side sleepers.
• Stomach sleepers: Attain good spinal alignment for stomach sleepers can often be trickier as the hips can tend to sink too far with some mattresses. Stability and support are essential for “stomach sleepers” to not cause back or hip pain. Because of its softness, this mattress is insufficiently supportive for stomach sleeping.
• Heavy sleepers: Heavy people apply a lot of force and pressure. For heavyweight back sleepers, the Amerisleep AS4 is insufficiently supportive, necessitating the purchase of a firmer mattress. The soft comfort layer relieves strain around the shoulder and hip, making the Amerisleep AS4 ideal for most heavyweight side sleepers. The Amerisleep AS4 is just too soft to handle heavyweight stomach sleepers comfortably.

Cooling & Temperature Control

Extra-thick memory foam has one significant disadvantage. It hampers temperature regulation. Memory foam retains heat at night, and trapped heat makes it even softer, increasing cushioning effect and blocking air circulation around the body. The Amerisleep AS4 has two design features that may help it sleep more relaxed than some all-foam mattresses: a breathable cover and open-celled Bio-Pur foam that allows for increased ventilation. But, even with the breathable cotton-polyester cover, the AS4 bed can sleep warm. This is not well-suited to people who tend to sleep hot at night.

Motion Isolation and Sharing a Bed

This category rates how well a mattress can prevent other sleepers in a bed from feeling when their sleep partner rolls over, shifts, or changes positions. The AS4 mattress is quite good at minimizing motion transfer. The Bio-Pur foam layer is very responsive and gives a bit bouncy effect. It absorbs motion and lets you sleep undisturbed. The foam layer also inhibits any kind of noise produced due to moving around. Partners sharing your bed who tosses and turns regularly, the foam layer absorbs such movement reasonably well, letting you have an undisturbed sleep.

Edge Support

Foam mattresses aren’t usually very supportive along the border of the mattress—vital if one likes to sit on the border of the bed or tend to sleep along the border. Edge support is also an important consideration for couples, as poor performance limits sleeping and sexual interaction closer to the center of the bed rather than its perimeter. Getting in and out of bed may also disturb the partner since the bed may bend when sitting on the edge. It is a common concern with all-foam mattresses. The AS4 mattress offers little edge support. The deep foam layer makes the mattress edges a bit softer. This makes the perimeter unstable. However, the base layer allows the overall structure of the bed to remain intact. Firmer mattresses offer more supportive edges.

Recommendation based on sleeping style

No matter what position we sleep in, we all need to sleep well so our bodies can heal and rejuvenate. The fact is, we shrink by one to two inches during the day. This phenomenon is explained by the compaction of the intervertebral discs following a loss of liquid. The fluid restores the discs during the night. For this to work, sleeping in a good position is essential. What do we mean by a good position? There are three sleep postures: Side, back, and stomach sleepers, and then some who may prefer a combination of such postures. Therefore, all three have different needs and specific experiences regarding the comfort, support, and flexibility that the mattress should offer them.

• Side sleepers: The majority of people sleep on the side. In this position, most of the body’s weight rests on the shoulders, hips, and legs. It is, therefore, important that the area of the body can sink properly into the mattress while the waist needs to be supported and the spine aligned. This avoids waking up with pain in the neck and back. The areas that support the neck and pelvis should be flexible and reduce pressure on these areas. This AS4 mattress is best suited for side sleepers. The zoned support and thick foam layer relieve pressure points. The shoulders and hips sink just the right amount to keep the spine properly aligned.
• Back Sleepers: If you are more of a sleeper lying on your back, it is also important that your shoulders and hips can sink far enough into the mattress to avoid painful arches. The AS4 mattress is not the best option for back sleepers. The deep foam layer might not provide ample spinal support. The hips might sink lower, making it uncomfortable. However, lightweight sleepers might get good help.
• Stomach sleepers: In the case of stomach sleepers, a less flexible mattress with a good level of firmness is most suitable. It prevents your stomach from sinking in too far, which would reduce your body movements and lead to curvature. This leads to shoulder problems and tension in the neck. The deep foam layer makes the AS4 mattress soft and unsuitable for stomach sleepers. Stomach sleepers are not expected to get the support necessary for a comfortable night from this mattress.
• Combination Sleepers-Those who alternate between various positions: Are you one of those people who exhaust the entire range of positions by going from back to stomach, then to the side, then back again in a single night? You are not alone. Studies reveal that most people change their position about 20 times a night.
  AS4 is comfortable with lightweight and average-weight sleepers who prefer altering both sides mainly while sleeping.

Pros & Cons

AS5 is the softest mattress in Amerisleep’s impressive mattress range. The AS5 caters to strict side sleepers. Apart from the AS3, the AS5 is also Amerisleep’s chart-topping mattress. It offers a lot to its customers.

A recommendation is for sleepers, who

• Belong to side sleeping community and are combination sleepers
• Adore a soft, cozy mattress feel
• Prefer thick mattresses over thin
• Are suffering from chronic pain
• Like to use plant-based material
• Want to enjoy a lavish and expensive mattress

And less ideal for sleepers, who

• Back and stomach sleepers
• Our heavyweight, as it is too soft
• Are having a fixed budget- added features such as the Active Flex foam layer have a notably higher price tag.

Firmness

It might be subjective to tell if a mattress is firm or soft. All beds should support weight, promote appropriate spinal alignment, and give a comfortable and restful night’s sleep. Whether a mattress is fluffy and spongy (what mattress companies call soft or plush) or less so is a matter of personal preference (what firms call firm).

AS5 comes in 2 varieties– an all-memory foam mattress and a hybrid.

AS5 All-Foam has a soft feel compared to the industry standard for defining firmness. It is the softest mattress from the stable of Amerisleep. For light and average-weight side sleepers, this is the best firmness. The top layer of Bio-Pur foam provides mild body contouring and pressure alleviation, while the spine feels well supported. The AS5 is one of the finest mattresses for side sleepers among the Amerisleep series.

AS5 Hybrid is also a soft memory foam hybrid mattress that offers a great combination of comfort and support. The Bio-Pur foam comfort layer is quite soft, yet you can immediately feel the more rigid support layers beneath as you press into the foam. The AS5 Hybrid provides a fantastic blend of comfort and support, making it a side, combo, and heavy sleeper. Our hips sink precisely the appropriate amount into the foam comfort layer, and the foam gives some lovely body contouring. Meanwhile, the coils’ zoning provides extra support under the lumbar area, assisting in maintaining good spinal alignment. The Active Flex foam layer gives AS5 more softness without losing support. It instantaneously cradles you and rebounds in seconds as you adjust positions when you lie down.

Note: the measure of firmness is relative to the body weight. We are giving the industry standards related to moderate-weight persons.

Material & Construction

The 14-inch high AS5 All-Foam mattress consists of the following layers:

• Cover: The top surface consists of ultra-breathable material called Celliant to prevent heat retention. It makes the mattress ideal for people who sleep hot. The layer is also soft-to-touch and lightweight.
• Layer 1: This 3-inch layer with a density of 4lb contours the body offers an attractive cooling effect due to its open cell structure of Bio-Pur. It also helps in relieving pressure points.
• Layer 2: This is an extra comfort layer. This 2-inch Active Flex foam layer helps contour and makes the mattress responsive. It provides an added softness and, at the same time, prevents sinkage.
• Layer 3: This is a transition layer with HIVE technology. This 2-inch layer provides added support through its zoned system. This layer gives your hips and shoulders extra cushioning and supports your head, back, and legs.
• Layer 4: This 7-inch Bio-Core layer makes the mattress durable and provides overall support. It prevents excessive sinkage and sagging due to pressure.

The 14-inch high AS5 Hybrid mattress has a Pocketed Coil Layer and another additional layer:

Cover, Layer 1, and Layer 2 are all the same as the AS5 All-Foam version

• Layer 3: This layer is 8 inches thick and offers excellent comfort, responsiveness, and pressure relief. The coils are arranged to offer zoned support, relieving pressure points. It also keeps the spine properly aligned. The rings also offer a fair amount of air circulation to prevent heat build-up. Coils at the edge are firmer, helping in motion isolation.
• Layer 4: This 1-inch polyfoam layer makes the mattress durable and provides a base to the coils. It gives support and prevents wear & tear.

Mattress Review and Rating

Repositioning

Due to the extreme softness of AS5, there can be some obstacles in terms of mobility on the bed. The comfort layer consisting of Active Flex foam has more responsiveness to counter the block. We can say the responsiveness and repositioning are moderate to low with AS5.

Comfort, Back Support, Pressure Relief

Thanks to this AS5 mattress, the joints are cushioned, and pressure is eased in critical areas. The mattress’s zoned firmness relieves the shoulders and hips while also supporting the head, back, and legs—this aids in maintaining proper spine alignment. The top cover is ultra-breathable, while the Bio-Pur layer keeps you cool all night. The responsive Bio-Pur layer prevents heat build-up and reduces pressure sores. Just beneath the Bio-Pur layer, the Active Flex foam layer gives more softness to the mattress without losing support. It instantaneously cradles you and rebounds in seconds as you adjust positions when you lie down.

Maintaining an excellent spinal position while sleeping is essential for healthy back support. It implies that the mattress must carry the same spine posture as when you are standing. Pain, discomfort, lack of circulation, repeated tossing, and other issues can occur when a mattress pushes back against your body with too much power in a concentrated region. In general, side sleepers should be most concerned with “pressure points,” as this is the position in which your body’s weight is dispersed across the lowest surface area. The capacity of a bed to relieve stress in the shoulders, hips, and lower back is referred to as pressure release. The power of a mattress to accomplish this is often determined by your weight, sleeping position, and body structure.

Unfortunately, no mattress will provide both things equally well to all sleepers. In particular, spinal alignment and pressure-relieving abilities vary among sleepers with different weights, body shapes, and sleep positions.

• Back Sleepers: The AS5 is Amerisleep’s softest mattress, which is why most back sleepers are not much liked, notably heavier folks. They might find their hips sink in too much and pull the spine out of alignment.
  The AS5 Hybrid also is soft and not ideal for back sleepers. However, some lightweight back sleepers may prefer AS5 (both models).
  

• Side sleepers: Side sleeping on the Amerisleep AS5 and AS5 Hybrid is quite pleasant. The thick layer of Bio-Pur foam cushions the joints, resulting in nearly no strain on the shoulders and hips for sleepers. Folks who like a plusher mattress prefer AS5 due to its Active Flex soft foam. Furthermore, the coils’ zoning provides additional support under the lumbar area, which aids in maintaining good spinal alignment.
• Stomach sleepers: Both the all-foam and hybrid varieties of the Amerisleep AS5 do not feel like a good fit for stomach sleeping. The hips sink deep into the mattress due to the thick Bio-Pur foam and Active Flex layer, which push the spine out of alignment. Folks who sleep on their stomach may want to opt for a more supportive mattress.
• Heavy sleepers: On the Amerisleep AS5, heavyweight folks get spinal support and pressure reduction. It provides a fantastic blend of comfort and support, ideal for heavy sleepers. The Amerisleep AS5 Hybrid, with its zoned coils, provides appropriate spinal support for heavyweight back sleepers.

Cooling & Temperature Control

With excellent motion isolation and contouring, there is a flip side too. Amerisleep AS5 is mainly of foam. The foam tends to retain the heat. The breathable cover, as well as the Bio-Pur, adds cooling to the bed. But the soft AS5 mattress sinks and contours the body very well, making cooling a bit difficult. As the body sinks deep into the mattress, air circulation around the body reduces, and cooling is affected. Moreover, as the memory foam is thicker and there is a layer of Flex foam that can hold up more heat during sleeping at night. So, AS5 may pose some issues with hot sleepers.

There are various design aspects on the Amerisleep AS5 Hybrid mattress that help it sleep cooler: The open-celled Bio-Pur foam provides for more incredible ventilation than standard foams, and the coils allow for plenty of airflows throughout the mattress’s middle.

Motion Isolation and Sharing a Bed

The mattress is quite good at minimizing motion transfer. The thick Bio-Pur layer and the Active Flex foam are very responsive and give a bouncy effect. The mattress absorbs motion and lets you sleep undisturbed. The foam layers also inhibit any noise produced due to moving around.

Edge Support

The AS5 mattress offers a satisfactory amount of edge support around its perimeter. The transition layers make the mattress edges quite supportive. The base layer allows the overall structure of the bed to remain intact. However, if you often sleep at the edges, the mattress may collapse slightly. Firmer mattresses offer more supportive edges.

Recommendation based on sleeping style

No matter what position we sleep in, we all need to sleep well so our bodies can heal and rejuvenate. The fact is, we shrink by one to two inches during the day. The compaction of the intervertebral discs explains this phenomenon following a loss of liquid. The fluid restores the discs during the night. For this to work, sleeping in a good position is essential. What do we mean by a good position? There are three sleep postures: Side, back, and stomach sleepers, and then some who may prefer a combination of such postures. Therefore, all three have different needs and specific experiences regarding the comfort, support, and flexibility that the mattress should offer them.

• Side sleepers: The majority of people sleep on the side. In this position, most of the body’s weight rests on the shoulders, hips, and legs. It is, therefore, important that the area of the body can sink properly into the mattress while the waist needs to be supported and the spine aligned. This avoids waking up with pain in the neck and back. The areas that support the neck and pelvis should be flexible and reduce pressure on these areas.
  AS5 mattresses (both all-foam and Hybrid) are best suited for side sleepers. The zoned support and Active Flex foam layer relieve pressure points. The shoulders and hips sink just the right amount to keep the spine properly aligned.
• Back Sleepers:If you are more of a sleeper lying on your back, it is also vital that your shoulders and hips can sink far enough into the mattress to avoid painful arches.
  The AS5 all-foam and Hybrid are not ideal for back sleepers due to their ultra-softness. However, these can perform well for lightweight back sleepers. The Active Flex foam layer provides some support such that you do not sink too much. This helps to relieve pressure around the shoulders and hips. The 4-inch Bio-Pur layer also cushions the lower back. However, heavy people sleeping on their backs might find the AS5 mattress uncomfortable.
• Stomach sleepers: In the case of sleeping on your stomach, a less flexible mattress with a good level of firmness is most suitable. It prevents your stomach from sinking in too far, which would reduce your body movements and lead to curvature. This leads to shoulder problems and tension in the neck.
  The ultra-soft nature of AS5 makes the mattress unsuitable for stomach sleepers. The hips might sink too much, messing up with your spinal alignment. Stomach sleepers should opt for firmer mattresses for a comfortable night’s sleep.
• Combination Sleepers-Those who alternate between various positions: Are you one of those people who exhaust the entire range of positions by going from back to stomach, then to the side, then back again in a single night? You are not alone. Studies reveal that most people change their position about 20 times a night.
  Sleepers who prefer to stay on their sides more time than on back while changing position frequently will enjoy a relaxing sleep on AS5.
  As it features a fantastic blend of pressure relief and support, the AS5 Hybrid has a lot to offer combination sleepers. Sleepers should be able to move about without feeling trapped in the bed if the mattress is more responsive.
• Heavy Sleepers: People of the heavyweight category, especially those who weigh more than 250 pounds, particularly back and stomach sleepers, will not get the optimal support from AS5. Side sleepers, however, will enjoy the pressure relief around the shoulders and the hip area.
  Due to the added support provided by the coils, the AS5 Hybrid is preferable for heavyweight back sleepers.
