King beds are often unnecessary for single sleepers, which is why we love the AS3 for couples. With its medium feel, the Amerisleep AS3 provides a balance of cushioning and support for all types of sleepers and isolates motion well.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Amerisleep AS3 is made in the USA and CertiPUR-US\u00ae certified. It won\u2019t off-gas\u2014that factory-like smell some new mattresses have.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Amerisleep mattresses include free shipping and returns, a 100-night sleep trial, and a 20-year limited warranty.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n<h3>How Lying Down Feels<\/h3>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The AS3 provides just enough cushioning to protect your hips and shoulders, but won\u2019t cause you to sink or feel stuck in bed. As an all-foam mattress, the AS3 isolates motion well. This way, people who share a bed won\u2019t disrupt each other when switching positioning or getting up for a late-night glass of water.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The ergonomic support zones in the AS3 lift your body and prevent achy pressure build-up. With firmer support, the AS3 aligns your spine to reduce back pain and help you sleep peacefully.<\/span>\r\n<h3>Inside the Mattress<\/h3>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The AS3 is made from three layers of foam. Over the foam layers is a breathable cover built to dissipate heat and moisture.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At the top of the AS3 is Bio-Pur\u00ae, Amerisleep\u2019s proprietary memory foam found in most of their mattresses. Bio-Pur\u00ae is plant-based and mainly made out of castor oil rather than petroleum-based oils. This way, the Bio-Pur\u00ae doesn\u2019t trap heat, cause motion transfer, or sag easily.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Next is a layer of Affinity foam. It contains a zoned technology called HIVE\u00ae that\u2019s built to evenly distribute your body weight and prevent pressure point build-up. The technology is the softest around your hips and shoulders, then firm under your head, back, and legs.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The bottom of the AS3 is made from Bio-Core\u00ae, a sturdy base designed to support your spine. It also plays a critical role in helping your mattress last, being resistant to sags, soft spots, and lumps.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n<strong>SEE ALSO:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/eachnight.com\/mattress-reviews\/amerisleep-mattress-review\/\">Amerisleep Mattress Review<\/a><\/strong>"},{"acf_fc_layout":"summary_list_section_icon_custom","summary_list_hidden":false,"summary_list_group":[{"summary_list_title":"What We Appreciate","summary_list_values":[{"icon":"thumbs-up","short_description":"Motion-isolating design works great for couples"},{"icon":"thumbs-up","short_description":"CertiPUR-US\u00ae certified and made in the USA"},{"icon":"thumbs-up","short_description":"Has a hybrid alternative"}]}]},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","single_flexible_content_content_hidden":false,"single_flexible_content_content":"<h2>What\u2019s a Full Size Mattress?<\/h2>\r\n<img class=\"alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-9540\" src=\"https:\/\/eachnight.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/EachNight_MattressSizes-06-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"full size mattress\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/>\r\nA <a href=\"https:\/\/eachnight.com\/mattress-guides\/best-full-size-mattress\/\">full size mattress<\/a> is 56 inches by 75 inches.

King size beds provide 38 inches of personal space and extra length for taller sleepers. Full size mattresses are better for single sleepers.\r\n<h3>Is a full bed big enough for two?<\/h3>\r\nFull beds are only 56 inches wide\u2014that\u2019s 28 inches of wiggle room per person, a whole 10 inches less than what a king mattress offers (38 inches). Full mattresses may be too small for couples, but they\u2019re great for single adults.\r\n<h3>What size bed do most couples have?<\/h3>\r\nMost couples sleep comfortably on a queen, king, or California king size mattress, depending on budget and available space. Other mattress sizes, including twin, twin XL, and full, will feel too small and cramped for two people.\r\n<h3>Is there a bigger size than king?<\/h3>\r\nYes, there are oversized mattresses that you can custom order.
