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.

I do have one very important bit of brunette to blond hair dying info for you though... ... ... ... ... GOTCHA! Why would I dye my hair blond when everyone knows brunettes rule?  For Halloween this year, I'm going to use this wig to dress up as my friend Marie, who has the exact same hair.  Now, let's have more fun with that blond wig!
