Firmness Info
The AS5 is our softest mattress. It wraps you in plush comfort that stays cool all night. But it also bounces back fast, so you never feel stuck.
We designed the Bear Hybrid with a nice plush, quilted top so you feel like you are on top of a cloud, but your back and body will love the firmer core support. Overall, it would be rated a medium mattress, and on a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being most firm, Bear Hybrid is categorized as a 6.

Mattress Construction

Materials Overview
For anyone seeking the ultimate in softness, this is the bed for you. Amerisleep ultra-soft AS5 combines pressure-relieving memory foam with supportive Active Flex to offer side sleepers, combo sleepers, and heavy sleepers a comfortable night's sleep. Four layer construction:
  • Bio-Pur® foam
  • Active Flex foam
  • HIVE® transition layer
  • Bio-Core® foam support layer
  • Refresh Cooling Cover.
The Bear Hybrid is designed to offer a luxurious, traditional mattress feel using individually encased coils and premium foams. Made with 5 layers:
  • Hand-Quilted Celliant® Fiber Top
  • Copper-infused Memory Foam
  • Dynamic Transition Foam
  • Individually Encased Coils
  • High-Density Support Foam.
Comfort Info
Traditional memory foam is made from dense material, so it traps your body heat and can make you sweaty and uncomfortable while you're in bed - and who can sleep like that?
We developed our foam with an enhanced "open cell structure", which means there is more air space between the foam particles. That space wicks away heat while you sleep, and can keep you cooler and more comfortable.
Breathable & Adaptive Foams
Designed to increase airflow, reduce heat and create a cooling and comforting sleep environment.
Support Info
Our Bio-Core® foam support layer won't sag even after decades of use. And, like our Bio-Pur® foam, it's partially made from plants instead of petroleum so it's eco-friendly.
The HIVE® layer features hundreds of foam hexagons grouped into five comfort zones. Each zone is designed to provide extra cushion where you want it and support where you need it. That way your body gets the support it needs to stay properly aligned, so you can sleep your best.
High-Density Support
Like in our original mattress, this support foam strengthens the comfort layers and adds long-lasting durability.
Comfort Specs
The HIVE® transition layer has precision-cut channels that carry away even more heat and moisture. It's enough to make you feel like you're weightlessly resting on a cloud.
Amerisleep's Bio-Pur® material features an advanced-open cell design. This makes Bio-Pur® more breathable and responsive than memory foam, which will keep you cool and comfortable all night. Plus we make Bio-Pur® from partially plant-based sources using a zero-emission process. That means it's the most eco-friendly material of its kind.
Cooling Gel Memory Foam
Our memory foam doesn't trap your body's heat, it actually increases cooling 7x more than traditional memory foams.
Support Specs
Active Flex adds extra softness to the AS5, without sacrificing support. It cradles you the instant you lie down and it rebounds in seconds if you shift positions.
Bio-Pur® contours to your body to relieve pressure points and bounces back fast, so you won't feel "stuck" during the night.
Our HIVE® transition layer provides targeted support and pressure relief so you can sleep in perfect alignment. It gives your head, back, and legs more support, and your shoulders and hips more cushion.
Supportive Spring System
Our individually encased coil springs offer a superior luxury feel while providing the ultimate support and spinal alignment.
Fabric Specs
Refresh Cooling Cover
The Refresh Cover draws heat from your skin for a delightfully cool-to-the-touch feel. On average, your sleeping surface will stay 7 degrees cooler over an eight-hour night of rest compared to a traditional 100% polyester cover. This scientifically engineered fabric uses minerals to help convert your natural body heat into far infrared energy. This type of energy increases blood circulation to help speed up muscle recovery and improve quality of sleep.
Hand-Quilted Celliant® Fiber Top. Incorporating Celliant's technology in the quilted top helps increase comfort and promotes a restful sleep.
Our Bear Hybrid is engineered with Celliant's FDA Determined Infrared Yarn Technology. Celliant is a revolutionary, patented technology that has been clinically proven to enhance tissue oxygen levels and improve athletic performance, sleep quality, health and wellness.
