Need Help Deciding?
For most sleepers, we recommend the Brooklyn Bedding Aurora Luxe Cooling over the Amerisleep AS3. It scores higher in pressure relief, edge support, durability; decide whether those advantages justify the $350 Queen premium ($1,499 vs $1,149). The Amerisleep AS3 is the better choice only if budget is paramount — it saves roughly $350.
Amerisleep AS3 vs Brooklyn Bedding Aurora Luxe Cooling: What Actually Differs
The Amerisleep AS3 is a memory foam build, while the Brooklyn Bedding Aurora Luxe Cooling is a hybrid — that construction difference drives most of the cooling, motion, and feel decisions below. The Brooklyn Bedding Aurora Luxe Cooling stands 13.25" tall versus 12" for the Amerisleep AS3 — a 1.3" gap that matters if you need deep-pocket sheets or are pairing with an adjustable base. The Brooklyn Bedding Aurora Luxe Cooling is the firmer of the two at 6/10 (soft, medium, firm), and the Amerisleep AS3 sits at 5/10 (medium) — a meaningful enough gap that sleeper position and weight should drive the choice. The single largest performance gap is in long-term durability: the Brooklyn Bedding Aurora Luxe Cooling rates noticeably higher than the Amerisleep AS3, which is the deciding factor if that dimension is high on your list. On a Queen, the Amerisleep AS3 runs $1,149 versus $1,499 for the Brooklyn Bedding Aurora Luxe Cooling — roughly $350 (23%) less, which is enough to factor into the decision unless the pricier model wins clearly on the specs you care about.
Which Is Better For Your Sleep Style?
Higher pressure-relief rating, which is what protects hip and shoulder contact points in the side position.
Soft, Medium, Firm includes the option closest to a balanced medium feel for back sleepers (vs Medium).
Soft, Medium, Firm includes the firmer published option (vs Medium), which may better suit shoppers who prefer more surface support.
Cooling rated the same on both — neither has a heat-management edge in our spec data.
better long-term durability and stronger perimeter / edge support — the two specs heavier sleepers should weigh most.
Medium includes the softer published option (vs Soft, Medium, Firm), which can make contouring easier for lighter sleepers.
Higher motion-isolation rating, which means less disturbance when a partner moves or gets out of bed.

Amerisleep AS3
Strengths
- ✓Three inches of Bio-Pur and two inches of HIVE reverse AS2's 2/3-inch comfort-to-transition ratio, giving AS3 more surface contour while keeping the same 12-inch height and seven-inch Bio-Core base
- ✓The five-zone HIVE cuts provide firmer response beneath the head, back, and legs and more give beneath the shoulders and hips according to Amerisleep's current construction description
- ✓Choose AS3 Foam over AS3 Hybrid for quieter, steadier all-foam contour and the lower current catalog price; choose Hybrid for spring response, support-core airflow, and a stronger perimeter
- ✓The solid-foam support core avoids connected coil movement, a practical construction advantage for couples who prioritize motion isolation over bounce
Considerations
- —Strict stomach sleepers and many sleepers over 230 pounds should compare the medium-firm AS2 or coil-supported AS3 Hybrid before choosing this medium foam design
- —All-foam AS3 has less perimeter reinforcement and through-bed airflow than AS3 Hybrid's eight-inch zoned pocketed-coil core
- —Amerisleep's seven-degree Refresh comparison, cooling, recovery, circulation, alignment, pressure, pain, motion, edge, and durability statements are manufacturer or construction evidence rather than SleepRanked lab results
Brooklyn Bedding Aurora Luxe Cooling
Strengths
- ✓Three firmness choices
- ✓Phase-change cover and cooling foams
- ✓Zoned pocketed-coil support
Considerations
- —Optional pillow top changes the price and height
- —The cool-to-the-touch surface does not guarantee a cool night for every sleeper
