Need Help Deciding?
For most sleepers, we recommend the Purple RestorePlus Hybrid Mattress over the Amerisleep AS5. It scores higher in cooling, edge support, durability; decide whether those advantages justify the $1,550 Queen premium ($3,299 vs $1,749). The Amerisleep AS5 is the better choice only if budget is paramount — it saves roughly $1550.
Amerisleep AS5 vs Purple RestorePlus Hybrid Mattress: What Actually Differs
The Amerisleep AS5 is a memory foam build, while the Purple RestorePlus Hybrid Mattress is a hybrid — that construction difference drives most of the cooling, motion, and feel decisions below. The Amerisleep AS5 stands 14" tall versus 13" for the Purple RestorePlus Hybrid Mattress — a 1.0" gap that matters if you need deep-pocket sheets or are pairing with an adjustable base. The Purple RestorePlus Hybrid Mattress is the firmer of the two at 4.5/10 (medium-soft), and the Amerisleep AS5 sits at 3/10 (soft) — a meaningful enough gap that sleeper position and weight should drive the choice. The single largest performance gap is in edge support: the Purple RestorePlus Hybrid Mattress rates noticeably higher than the Amerisleep AS5, which is the deciding factor if that dimension is high on your list. On a Queen, the Amerisleep AS5 runs $1,749 versus $3,299 for the Purple RestorePlus Hybrid Mattress — roughly $1,550 (47%) 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?
Both rate the same for pressure relief — choose on firmness instead (side sleepers usually prefer the softer of the two: Amerisleep AS5 at 3/10).
Medium-Soft includes the option closest to a balanced medium feel for back sleepers (vs Soft).
Medium-Soft includes the firmer published option (vs Soft), which may better suit shoppers who prefer more surface support.
Stronger cooling rating, which matters most for sleepers who run hot or live in warm climates.
better long-term durability and stronger perimeter / edge support — the two specs heavier sleepers should weigh most.
Soft includes the softer published option (vs Medium-Soft), 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 AS5
Strengths
- ✓The five-inch comfort system combines three inches of Bio-Pur with two inches of faster-rebounding Active Flex for deep cushioning without relying on slow memory foam alone
- ✓Two inches of five-zone HIVE foam provide firmer response beneath the head, back, and legs and more give beneath the shoulders and hips according to Amerisleep's construction description
- ✓Choose AS5 Foam over AS5 Hybrid for quieter, steadier contour and the lower current catalog price; choose Hybrid for spring response, support-core airflow, easier movement, and a stronger perimeter
- ✓The solid Bio-Core support layer avoids connected coil movement, a practical construction advantage for couples who prioritize motion isolation over bounce
Considerations
- —The soft 3/10 feel and five inches of comfort foam are a poor starting point for strict stomach sleepers and shoppers who want a flat, firm surface
- —Amerisleep includes heavy sleepers in its broad AS5 positioning but publishes no product capacity or independent compression result on the reviewed page; higher-bodyweight back and stomach sleepers should compare firmer and coil-supported options
- —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
Purple RestorePlus Hybrid Mattress
Strengths
- ✓Deeper grid than Restore
- ✓Strong pressure relief for hips and shoulders
- ✓Hybrid airflow and support
- ✓Zoned coils provide targeted support
Considerations
- —Not offered in standard Twin
- —Premium price tier
- —Softer feel may not fit shoppers wanting firm support
