Our verdict on each
Amerisleep
Amerisleep sells memory foam and hybrid mattresses with different firmness and construction choices. Its AS3 is described as a medium-feel all-foam mattress combining Bio-Pur foam with HIVE zoned support; the AS3h uses foam and coils. The company says its mattresses use a cotton-rayon fire barrier instead of fiberglass and advertises a 100-night trial and 20-year...
Relax the Back

Queen prices sit mid-table, so the pitch is cover and range rather than the lowest entry cost, and shoppers wanting a longer trial should look elsewhere.

Pros and cons
Amerisleep
Pros
- AS3 combines Bio-Pur foam with HIVE zoned support and a medium feel.
- The lineup includes all-foam and hybrid models.
- The brand advertises a 100-night trial and 20-year warranty.
Cons
- Several models differ mainly in feel, so the right choice depends on personal comfort
- The lineup centers on foam and hybrid designs rather than other mattress types
Relax the Back
Pros
- A 10 year warranty on the mattress, a long cover term for a product that has to hold its shape.
- Free delivery is included, and the World LM office chair lists 0 weeks for delivery.
- An in-home trial of 90 days lets a foam mattress be slept on properly before a decision.
Cons
- Assembly included is listed as no, so beds, chairs and desks arrive without a build service and the setup is left to the buyer.
- Support runs on email, chat and help centre only, so a delivery or warranty question has to go in writing.
- The 30 night mattress trial is short against the 60 night typical here.
Who each suits
Amerisleep
Who it suits
- Shoppers comparing foam or hybrid mattresses and interested in the AS3 medium feel.
Who should look elsewhere
- Buyers looking for one feel or construction to suit every sleeper.
Relax the Back
Who it suits
- Shoppers who want one maker for the bedroom and the desk, since armchairs, beds and bed frames all sit under the same name.
- Sleepers on a foam or hybrid build who want a choice of feel, offered here as soft, medium and firm.
- Anyone who wants to live with a mattress for a full stretch of nights, with 90 days of in-home trial before deciding.
Who should look elsewhere
- Shoppers after a hybrid only range: blackroll-bnl covers hybrid and nothing beyond it.
- Buyers whose budget stops at the mattress, since Nectar covers memory foam and hybrid while this brand also carries armchairs, beds and bed frames.

Questions about each
Amerisleep
How does AS3 differ from AS3h?+
Amerisleep describes AS3 as all foam and AS3h as a hybrid combining foam and coils.
What is Bio-Pur foam made from?+
Bio-Pur foam is made with castor bean oil instead of petroleum. This plant based base is designed to feel breathable, a quality many memory foams lack. It appears in several mattress models in the range, giving sleepers a foam option that differs from traditional petroleum based memory foam.
Relax the Back
How much does a Relax the Back queen mattress cost?+
The Tempur Luxebreeze hybrid queen is $5,899. That price already carries a 10 year warranty and free delivery, so nothing extra is added for shipping. The rest of the furniture range opens lower, with the World LM office chair at $545.
How long is the mattress trial, and can I sleep on it at home?+
The in-home trial runs 90 days, so a mattress can be slept on properly before a decision is made. Returns on the wider range run 30 days, and the mattress trial itself is listed at 30 nights. Longer nights at home make a difference on a foam build.
