Amerisleep AS3 Hybrid Mattress Review

The Amerisleep AS3 Hybrid is a testament to the company’s commitment to delivering not only exceptional comfort and support but also prioritizing environmental sustainability. As a Certified Sleep Coach with a focus on eco-friendly living, I found the AS3 Hybrid’s combination of plant-based materials and energy-efficient manufacturing processes particularly impressive.

During the unboxing, the AS3 Hybrid revealed its eco-conscious design. Amerisleep uses plant-based Bio-Pur® memory foam, which is not only comfortable but also reduces the mattress’s carbon footprint. This foam is paired with a pocketed coil system that provides dynamic support, adapting to various sleep positions and minimizing motion transfer.

But the AS3 Hybrid isn’t just about comfort and support. Amerisleep has gone above and beyond to ensure that this mattress is also environmentally friendly. They utilize a zero-emissions manufacturing process and source materials responsibly, reducing environmental impact.

By using plant-based materials, eco-friendly manufacturing processes, and innovative packaging and shipping methods, Amerisleep has set a new standard for sustainability in the mattress industry.

Throughout my testing, I was consistently impressed by the AS3 Hybrid’s performance. Its exceptional motion isolation and responsive feel, combined with excellent edge support and cooling properties, made for a restorative sleep experience. It’s no wonder that the AS3 Hybrid has garnered such glowing reviews from satisfied customers across the country.

In the following detailed analysis, I will delve into the AS3 Hybrid’s construction, materials, and performance, drawing from my expertise in sleep science and environmental sustainability to provide a comprehensive review.

Mattress Layers, Materials, and Construction

The Amerisleep AS3 Hybrid mattress arrived at my doorstep in a compact, easy-to-maneuver box, which was the first sign of Amerisleep’s commitment to reducing packaging waste. The efficient packaging minimizes the carbon footprint associated with shipping.

Upon opening the box, I found the mattress tightly compressed and rolled up, sealed in protective plastic. The packaging also included a handy cutting tool, which made it effortless to carefully slice through the plastic without damaging the mattress. The inclusion of this cutting tool underscored Amerisleep’s attention to detail and commitment to customer satisfaction.

As I began to unroll the AS3 Hybrid, I could feel the anticipation building. Once fully expanded, the AS3 Hybrid’s construction was immediately apparent. The base layer consists of pocketed coils that provide adaptable support, while the middle layers of Bio-Pur® memory foam and HIVE® transition foam offer a balance of comfort and responsiveness.

The whole unboxing and setup process took only a matter of minutes, and I was impressed by how seamless it was. Amerisleep’s commitment to a user-friendly experience, from the eco-friendly packaging to the clear instructions, made the setup process enjoyable and straightforward.

Once the mattress was fully unrolled, I carefully positioned it on my bed frame. It was a delight to watch the mattress slowly expand and take shape before my eyes. The Bio-Pur® memory foam began to regain its original form, and the pocketed coils beneath seemed to come to life, ready to provide the support I needed for a great night’s sleep.

Comfort Layer

As you drift off to sleep on the top layer of Bio-Pur® memory foam, you’ll feel cool and comfortable, with no need to toss and turn in search of the perfect temperature. Bio-Pur® memory foam is a plant-based material that gently contours to your body, providing a soothing embrace.

The top layer of Bio-Pur® memory foam not only offers cooling and comfortable sleep but also represents Amerisleep’s dedication to sustainable practices. This eco-friendly foam is designed with an open-cell structure, allowing air to circulate freely and preventing heat build-up.

The use of plant-based materials in the Bio-Pur® foam reduces the mattress’s environmental impact, aligning with Amerisleep’s mission to create sustainable sleep solutions.

Transition Layer

Beneath the Bio-Pur® layer lies the HIVE® transition layer, a testament to Amerisleep’s innovative approach to mattress design. This layer is divided into five distinct zones, each designed to provide targeted support and pressure relief where you need it most.

The HIVE® layer’s zoned support system not only enhances sleep quality by maintaining spinal alignment but also exemplifies Amerisleep’s commitment to personalized comfort and support.

Envision the HIVE® layer cradling your head, back, and legs with added support, while your shoulders and hips are treated to extra cushioning. This innovative design helps to keep your spine in perfect alignment, alleviating pain-causing pressure points and ensuring a restful night’s sleep.

Support Layer

Lastly, the Amerisleep AS3 Hybrid also features a support layer of pocketed coils, which work in harmony with the Bio-Pur® and HIVE® layers to provide a balanced, responsive feel.

The individually wrapped coils move independently, adapting to your body’s unique contours and minimizing motion transfer. This means that if you share your bed with a partner, you won’t be disturbed by their movements throughout the night.

The pocketed coil system enhances the mattress’s breathability, further contributing to a cool and comfortable sleep environment.

Mattress Cover

Enveloping these layers is the Refresh Cover, which uses phase-changing material to keep sleepers cool.This soft, breathable fabric enhances the overall comfort and cooling of the mattress.

The cover is designed to draw heat away from your body, maintaining a temperature up to 7 degrees cooler than traditional mattress covers. Its advanced technology not only maintains a cooler sleep surface but also promotes better circulation, which can accelerate muscle recovery and improve sleep quality.

Sleep Positions

The Amerisleep AS3 Hybrid is designed to be a versatile medium, accommodating a wide range of sleepers. This adaptability makes the hybrid mattress an excellent choice for side, back, stomach, and combination sleepers, providing a balanced level of support and comfort across all sleeping positions.

This doesn’t mean it’s the right choice for everyone, of course, but you’re more likely than not to find that the AS3 Hybrid provides just what you need for a good night’s sleep.

Side Sleeping

My preferred way to drift off to sleep is lying on my side, and the surface of this mattress met the curve of my waist for full body support. I found the AS3 Hybrid’s contouring foam layers to provide the right amount of pressure relief for my shoulders and hip. An excellent mattress for side sleeping that ensured a comfortable night’s sleep without any discomfort.

Generally speaking, the most comfortable mattresses for side sleeping are in the soft to medium range. The AS3 Hybrid’s medium firmness is ideal for side sleepers who need a blend of softness and support. However, others may prefer the feel of a plush mattress such as what the Amerisleep AS5 Hybrid provides.

Back Sleeping

In the back sleeping position, the AS3 Hybrid offers a supportive base while allowing for gentle contouring around the lower back, maintaining proper spinal alignment and preventing any lower back pain.

I can feel my shoulders and hips gently sinking into the foam top, but not as much as they do when I sleep on my side. The foam gives way less in this position since the pressure from my body is less concentrated.

Some back sleepers may prefer a mildly firmer option, like the Amerisleep AS2.

Stomach Sleeping

While stomach sleeping is often discouraged due to potential spinal strain, the AS3 Hybrid provides enough support to prevent excessive sinking at the hips, ensuring a neutral spine position for stomach sleepers.

Lying on my stomach, I felt just as buoyed as I did stretched out on my back. My stomach lightly cradled by the bed’s surface while the mattress pressed gently against my upper torso. With a thin pillow, I think the Amerisleep AS3 performs quite well as a mattress for stomach sleeping, though some may prefer a firmer model.

Combination Sleeping

Now, combination sleepers need an adaptable mattress that can keep up with changes in positions. The AS3 Hybrid shines for combination sleepers, with its responsive foams and coil system facilitating easy movement and providing consistent support across various sleep positions.

When rolling about the surface and switching from my back to my side and then to my stomach, I found my movements easy, not inhibited by a slow-reacting surface like a lesser mattress might have.

Mattress Responsiveness

Responsiveness is a standout feature of the AS3 Hybrid, with the mattress quickly adapting to changes in sleep position. This is crucial for maintaining comfort and support throughout the night, particularly for combination sleepers who move frequently.

When a mattress is responsive, it quickly adapts to your body’s shape, weight, and movements, ensuring that you receive the necessary support in all the right places. The Bio-Pur® and HIVE® foam layers react swiftly to body movements, ensuring that sleepers remain comfortably cradled without feeling ‘stuck’ in the mattress.

This mattress feature is particularly important for side sleepers, as a responsive mattress will contour to the curves of their hips and shoulders, preventing painful pressure from building up in the body. Imagine lying on a mattress for pressure points that feels like it’s hugging you, providing a sense of comfort and security throughout the night.

Similarly, it’s a necessary feature for combination sleepers, who need a bed that can keep up with any tossing and turning.

Naturally, my first step was to climb onto the mattress and just move about, like I was tossing and turning in my sleep or moving out of bed in the morning. This gives me an idea of how the mattress adapts and if there’s a delayed reaction in the materials that causes me to feel “stuck,” even if it’s only briefly. I’m pleased to note that didn’t happen with the AS3 Hybrid.

Aside from testing the mattress’s responsiveness personally by rolling and shifting positions then moving in and out of bed, I also took a step back to gauge the bed’s responsiveness with what I call the ‘drop test.’

With this test, I drop a weighted ball about 10 pounds on the mattress and watch how the surface reacts. Ideally, there should be some slight pushback before the object quickly settles, as you don’t want a mattress that just lets you sink but you also don’t want an immovable mattress that doesn’t adapt to your body.

The AS3 Hybrid passed this test with flying colors, demonstrating the perfect balance of pushback and adaptability and earning a 10 out of 10 from me.

The Bio-Pur® memory foam comfort layer and the HIVE® transition layer work together seamlessly to create a mattress that is incredibly responsive. The open-cell structure of the Bio-Pur® foam allows it to adapt quickly to your body, while the HIVE® layer’s targeted support ensures that you receive the right amount of pushback in key areas.

This foam combination results in a mattress that feels like it was custom-made for your body. Together, they provide an unparalleled level of comfort and support.

Whether you’re a side sleeper, a combination sleeper, or simply someone who values a mattress that adapts effortlessly to your body, the AS3 Hybrid is an outstanding choice. With its perfect balance of contouring and pushback, this mattress sets the standard for responsiveness in the industry.

Mattress Motion Isolation

Motion isolation is a critical feature for couples or those who share their bed with a restless partner or pet. A mattress with excellent motion isolation absorbs movement, preventing it from transferring across the bed and disturbing your sleep. This means that if your partner tosses and turns or gets up in the middle of the night, you’re less likely to be jostled awake.

Essentially, a mattress with motion isolation acts like a shock absorber. It keeps you blissfully unaware of your partner’s movements, allowing you to enjoy a peaceful, uninterrupted night’s sleep.

Motion isolation is another area where the AS3 Hybrid excels, making it an excellent choice for couples. The mattress effectively absorbs movement, ensuring that one partner’s movements do not disturb the other, leading to a more restful night’s sleep for both.

I should also note that in my mattress tests, I’ve found that high responsiveness doesn’t negate motion isolation. You can have a mattress that responds nearly instantly to your every movement but reacts locally, so your motion isn’t carried across the mattress surface.

So it was that after measuring the AS3 Hybrid’s responsiveness that I turned to testing its motion isolation capabilities.

I left the weighted ball where I dropped it and settled on the mattress, tossing and turning, moving out of bed, and even briefly walking across the surface to gauge if the weight moved at all. To my expert eye it did not shift, the memory foam cradling its unassuming form. Therefore, I happily give the Amerisleep AS3 Hybrid another 10 out of 10 for motion isolation.

Mattress Edge Support

Edge support is another essential feature to consider when choosing a mattress. A mattress with good edge support will maintain its shape and firmness around the perimeter, preventing you from feeling like you’re about to roll off the bed.

The AS3 Hybrid provides reliable edge support, allowing sleepers to use the entire surface of the mattress without feeling unstable or at risk of rolling off – a feature that is especially beneficial for couples. Picture being able to sit comfortably on the edge of your bed while putting on your shoes or reading a book, without the mattress sagging or collapsing beneath you.

Edge support is also useful for those who have a condition that restricts their ability to move, such as arthritis or mobility issues. A mattress with sturdy edge support can provide a stable surface for sitting on the edge of the bed, making it easier to get in and out of bed without feeling like you’re going to slip off.

This added stability can also be beneficial for those who require assistance from a caregiver. Reinforced edges provide a secure platform for them to sit while helping with daily tasks like dressing or transferring from the bed to a wheelchair.

Testing edge support in a mattress is simple, as I allowed myself to sit on the side for a few moments, then I laid down and made myself cozy near the edge. At no point did I doubt that I could move easily out of bed, as the sides of the mattress bore my weight gracefully.

I would give the Amerisleep AS3 Hybrid a 9 out of 10 for edge support, since the soft memory foam did yield a touch more than I wanted it to as I plopped myself on the edge of the mattress. This is about standard for a well-crafted hybrid mattress like the AS3, which uses reinforced coils to establish its edge support.

Many other mattress manufacturers similarly use thicker coils to create edge support, though some use dense foam rails instead. In my experience, both options can provide excellent edge support and I really wouldn’t recommend one over the other.

Coolness and Breathability

A cooling mattress is essential for achieving undisturbed, restful sleep throughout the night. When a mattress retains too much heat, it can cause discomfort, sweating, and tossing and turning, all of which can lead to sleep disruptions. The Amerisleep AS3 Hybrid excels in this area, earning an impressive cooling score of 9 out of 10 from me in my tests.

To assess the cooling capabilities of the AS3 Hybrid, I spent extended periods lying on the mattress in various positions. As I did this, I monitored how well the mattress regulated temperature and whether it remained cool and comfortable over time. The AS3 Hybrid consistently performed well, maintaining a cool sleep surface even after prolonged use.

Amerisleep’s AS3 Hybrid is designed with cooling in mind, featuring a Refresh Cover and Bio-Pur® foam that work together to dissipate heat and regulate sleep temperature, ensuring a comfortable and cool sleeping environment.

Cooling Mattress Cover

Firstly, the Refresh Cover is designed to wick away moisture and promote airflow, helping to keep the sleep surface cool and dry.

The cover is also infused with minerals that convert body heat into infrared energy, which has been shown to improve circulation and promote a more restful sleep.

Cooling Memory Foam

Beneath the cover, the Bio-Pur® memory foam comfort layer plays a significant role in the mattress’s cooling abilities. Unlike traditional memory foam, which can trap heat, Bio-Pur® is engineered with an open-cell structure that allows for better airflow and temperature regulation.

This means that the cooling memory foam can contour to your body without retaining excess heat, keeping you cozy and comfortable throughout the night.

Cooling Transition Layer

The HIVE® transition layer also contributes to the AS3 Hybrid’s cooling performance. The hexagonal cutouts in this layer not only provide targeted support but also allow for increased airflow, further enhancing the mattress’s breathability.

Cooling Support Layer

Finally, the pocketed coil support core promotes excellent air circulation. The individually wrapped coils allow air to move freely through the mattress, dissipating heat and preventing moisture build-up.

This feature, combined with the cooling properties of the upper layers, ensures that the AS3 Hybrid maintains a cool, comfortable sleep surface all night long.

Material Durability and Mattress Longevity

When investing in a new mattress, it’s essential to consider the durability and longevity of the materials used in its construction. And the how long a mattress can last vary depending on its materials and construction. On average, a high-quality hybrid mattress like the AS3 Hybrid can last between 7 and 10 years.

Perhaps even longer, as a 2022 study found that mattress owners kept their foam and traditional spring mattresses for about 13 years, and it’s not unreasonable to think a well-made hybrid could last just as long.

Let’s consider the AS3 Hybrid’s materials, then. The Bio-Pur® memory foam used in the comfort layer is more durable and resilient than traditional memory foam, resisting the formation of lasting body impressions. Additionally, the HIVE® transition layer and the pocketed coil support system work together to provide lasting support and minimize sagging over time.

During my tests, the Amerisleep AS3 Hybrid scored exceptionally well in terms of responsiveness. The mattress quickly adapted to changes in pressure and position, returning to its original shape almost immediately. This responsiveness is a key indicator of the mattress’s ability to withstand sagging and body indentations over time.

The high-quality foams and the individually wrapped coils contribute to this responsiveness, ensuring that the mattress maintains its supportive properties even with regular use.

This responsiveness is a key indicator of the mattress’s ability to withstand sagging and body indentations over time. The high-quality foams and the individually wrapped coils contribute to this responsiveness, ensuring that the mattress maintains its supportive properties even with regular use.

The expected durability of the AS3 Hybrid is further enhanced by Amerisleep’s commitment to using eco-friendly, sustainable materials. The plant-based Bio-Pur® memory foam is not only more durable than traditional memory foam but also more resistant to dust mites, mold, and mildew.

This means that the hybrid mattress will remain clean and hygienic for a longer period, contributing to its overall longevity along with simplifying its care..

The Amerisleep AS3 Hybrid projected durability can also be found in its impressive 20-year warranty. This warranty not only covers defects in materials and workmanship but also protects against sagging greater than an inch.

The length of the warranty and the specific coverage for sagging demonstrate Amerisleep’s confidence in the durability of the AS3 Hybrid and its ability to maintain its shape and support over time.

Environmental Impact

As I unboxed and set up my Amerisleep AS3 Hybrid, I couldn’t help but feel a sense of pride in supporting a company that prioritizes sustainability and environmental responsibility. It’s clear that Amerisleep has put a great deal of thought and effort into every aspect of their business, from the materials they use to the way they package and ship their products.

Amerisleep’s commitment to sustainability is evident in the AS3 Hybrid’s construction, with plant-based materials and a zero-emissions manufacturing process reducing the environmental impact of this mattress.

By choosing the AS3 Hybrid, consumers support sustainable practices and contribute to a greener future.

Plant-Based Memory Foam

One of the most impressive aspects of Amerisleep’s environmental commitment is their use of plant-based materials in their Bio-Pur® memory foam.

By replacing a portion of the petroleum-based oils typically used in memory foam production with plant-derived oils, Amerisleep has taken a significant step towards reducing their reliance on non-renewable resources.

This step forward not only helps to conserve our planet’s finite resources but also results in a mattress that is healthier for both the consumer and the environment.

CertiPUR-US® Certified Foams

Furthermore, Amerisleep’s mattresses are CertiPUR-US® certified, which means that they have been independently tested and verified to meet strict standards for content, emissions, and durability.

This certification ensures that Amerisleep’s mattresses are made without ozone depleters, heavy metals, formaldehyde, and phthalates, and have low VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) emissions.

Durability Minimizes Replacement

Even the expected durability of the mattress contributes to its eco-friendly design. See, a durable mattress reduces waste. When a mattress is built to last, it means that you won’t need to replace it as often. This reduces the number of mattresses that end up in landfills, where they can take decades to decompose.

A durable mattress also conserves resources. The production of a mattress requires significant amounts of energy, raw materials, and water. By choosing a mattress that lasts longer, you are reducing the demand for these resources over time.

As someone who values a healthy sleep environment, I appreciate Amerisleep’s commitment to using materials that are safe for both my family and the planet. However, Amerisleep’s dedication to sustainability extends beyond their materials, as evidenced by their efficient manufacturing and shipping processes.

Eco-Friendly Manufacturing

Their industry-leading, zero-air emissions manufacturing process is a testament to their commitment to reducing pollution and protecting the environment.

By using advanced technology and eco-friendly practices, Amerisleep has minimized the environmental impact of their production process, setting a new standard for the mattress industry.

Eco-Friendly Shipping

Amerisleep’s innovative packaging and shipping methods also contribute to their reduced environmental impact. By compressing and rolling their mattresses into compact boxes, they can ship up to three times as many mattresses in a single delivery, compared to traditional flat-pack methods.

This efficiency translates to an average fuel consumption reduction of 80%, significantly lowering the carbon footprint associated with mattress delivery.

In a world where environmental concerns are increasingly pressing, it’s heartening to know that companies like Amerisleep are leading the charge in developing sustainable, eco-friendly solutions. By choosing an Amerisleep mattress, I feel like I am not only investing in my own comfort and well-being but also contributing to a greener future for our planet.

Potential Drawbacks

While the Amerisleep AS3 Hybrid is a top performer in many areas, potential buyers should consider a few aspects.

The medium firmness may not meet the preference of those who desire an ultra-soft or extra-firm mattress. However, this level of firmness is often ideal for a broad range of sleepers.

The price point, while reflective of its high quality and advanced features, might be above the budget for some shoppers. Still, Amerisleep’s frequent promotions and discounts can make it more accessible.

Although the pocketed coil support system is designed to minimize noise, there is a slight chance that some sleepers may experience minor squeaking as they move around on the mattress. However, this is less likely compared to traditional innerspring mattresses, and the noise is not significant enough to disrupt sleep for most people.

Regarding the materials inside the mattress, Amerisleep has taken steps to minimize potential drawbacks. The Bio-Pur® memory foam is plant-based, reducing its environmental impact compared to traditional memory foam.

Additionally, the mattress is CertiPUR-US® certified, ensuring that it is free from harmful chemicals and low in VOCs, which may be beneficial for sleepers with allergies or sensitivities. However, as with any type of mattress, it is essential to use a mattress protector to keep the bed clean and free from allergens.

Finally, the AS3 Hybrid has a thickness of 12 inches, which is considered a standard profile for most mattresses. While this mattress thickness is suitable for the majority of sleepers, some individuals may find it too tall or short, depending on their personal preferences and the height of their bed frame.

Taller individuals or those with mobility issues may prefer a thicker mattress for easier movements, while shorter individuals may find a 12-inch mattress too tall for their liking.

While the Amerisleep AS3 Hybrid has some potential drawbacks, these issues are relatively minor and are outweighed by the mattress’s numerous benefits. Amerisleep has taken steps to address potential concerns regarding the materials used in the mattress, ensuring a safe and eco-friendly sleeping environment for their customers.

Mattress Care and Maintenance

Once you have picked out a new mattress, you want to make sure you’re prepared to take care of it. After all, a good mattress costs a not-insignificant amount, and if you don’t care for your current bed you’ll find yourself needing to replace it sooner than you think.

Proper care can extend the lifespan of the AS3 Hybrid:

• Using a supportive bed frame and regular cleaning will maintain the mattress’s condition and performance.
• A waterproof protector is recommended to safeguard against spills and stains, preserving the mattress’s integrity

Supportive Bed Frame

The greatest measure of preventive care is making sure you have an appropriately supportive bed frame. For the Amerisleep AS3 Hybrid, that means no box springs, just a solid or slatted surface to deter mattress sagging.

If you’re using bed slats, make sure they’re no more than 2.75 inches apart.

Cleaning the Mattress

Amerisleep says it is unnecessary to flip or rotate their mattresses, so this saves you a chore every few months. However, I would still recommend vacuuming the mattress’s crevices every so often to keep it pristine, which may require lifting and moving the mattress..

If something should happen that stains the surface, I recommend cleaning the mattress with a light touch of cool water mixed with mild detergent. You don’t want to soak your mattress, after all.

A mattress protector is also a wise precaution here, as it can save you from frantic cleanups should an accident or spill occur.

Overall, I think the Amerisleep AS3 requires about the standard amount of care you would give to any mattress, with a little bit less needed thanks to its durable structure.
