Amerisleep Memory Foam???

Hi CDFinch,

My wife and I purchased a $2,200 king size latex bed from Plushbeds about 1.5 years ago. While they are truly comfortable (at first), and they do sleep cool, we have run into a problem; my side has a permanent indention where I lay. At my heaviest, I was 185 lbs. This should not have happened, and Plushbeds even agreed. I have contacted them about the issue (10 year replacement warranty) and after the initial response, I have not heard back from them (it is 5 days later). I am not a happy camper.

I would probably try and call them on the phone but I certainly agree that this “shouldn’t” be happening and they “should be” helping you more promptly. How deep is the indentation (perhaps you could post a picture)?

That leads me to Amerisleep. Their beds “seem” to have quality materials, but then I read some reviews that stated the company was horrible, and even had a low BBB rating. Does anyone know anything about them? Have they gotten better?

There is more about Amerisleep and their sister companies and their so called “expert sites” that pose as being independent in post #2 here and the posts it links to. A forum search on Amerisleep (you can just click the link) will bring up more about them as well.

They wouldn’t be among my top choices when you have so many other good online options available to you.

I am also skeptical of gel memory foam as tests are now indicating that they retain heat.

There are many versions of gel memory foam that are different from each other but there is more information about them and their properties including their temperature regulating benefits in post #2 here and the other posts it links to.
