Need Help Deciding?
For most sleepers, we recommend the Tempur-Pedic TEMPUR-Cloud over the Amerisleep AS5. It scores higher in cooling, motion isolation, pressure relief and delivers stronger overall value. The Amerisleep AS5 is the better choice only if you have a strong preference for that brand's specific feel or design.
Amerisleep AS5 vs Tempur-Pedic TEMPUR-Cloud: What Actually Differs
Both the Amerisleep AS5 and Tempur-Pedic TEMPUR-Cloud are memory foam mattresses, so the real differences come down to firmness tuning, performance ratings, and price rather than construction type. The Amerisleep AS5 stands 14" tall versus 10" for the Tempur-Pedic TEMPUR-Cloud — a 4.0" gap that matters if you need deep-pocket sheets or are pairing with an adjustable base. On a Queen, the Tempur-Pedic TEMPUR-Cloud runs $1,399 versus $1,849 for the Amerisleep AS5 — roughly $450 (24%) less, which is enough to factor into the decision unless the pricier model wins clearly on the specs you care about.
