Amerisleep AS3 Reviews

  My Amerisleep AS3 Unboxing Video (Surprise, my voice is ridiculous!) If I can (just barely) do it, you can totally tackle a bed-in-a-box by yourself. Updated 10/15/22 Amerisleep's AS5 was recently featured as the 'Best Soft Mattress in a Box' by Good Housekeeping , with the panel of reviewers noting: Pressure relief for side sleepers Taller than other boxed mattresses Good customer service    Amerisleep Mattress Reviews  We've been happy Amerisleep customers since purchasing our first AS3 mattress more than 9 years ago. Now we also have an AS2 and an AS4 (the AS3 is still our favorite). Born with chronic insomnia  (even as a baby - my family insists I was a nightmare), the struggle to improve my sleep is my life. My husband, the overly-analytical mechanical engineer, was initially skeptical of a mail-order mattress, but he was quickly won over. 2012: Wine glass test, sans wine. I was fairly confident our brand-new mattress would pass with f

Visit Copenhagen at Christmas

I shared photos from our trip to Iceland , but none from Denmark. Copenhagen deserves better than that! We had a great time walking the cobblestone streets, visiting castles, and enjoying the Christmas markets that seemed to be everywhere .  Seriously, they were even inside some of the castles.

2021 Summit County Parade of Homes

Hey there, my bloggy friends. SN and I recently spent a fun weekend in Colorado. The highlight of our trip was gawking at astonishing dream homes in Breckenridge and Silverthorne. That's right, it's time for our favorite annual interior design event, the  2021 Summit County Parade of Homes . You can still catch the last weekend of the parade. Homes will be open September 25 and 26, 2021. Tickets are $20 each and include a copy of Mountain Living magazine (only the current issue, not a subscription like in previous years - phooey).

One home in Breckenridge even included wine and cheese, along with an assortment of other goodies. Conveniently, the 3 homes in Silverthorne are located close to each other, as are the 3 in Breckenridge. This made for a speedy parade - we arrived at the first home at 10 am and were back in Salida
