Why You Can Trust Us.
- Last Updated: October 26, 2023
ASL Reviews was founded in 2019 as a response to feeling overwhelmed and wanting to spare you the same confusion. We were so dedicated to this goal that we became the experts that we craved to hear from. We’re a husband and wife duo who’ve been in your shoes, stuck wondering, “Which mattress is the one for me?”
We’ve personally reviewed over 70+ mattresses across 35+ mattress brands, sleep wellness products and more. From the big names to the little guy, we’ve given them the rundown. Authentic, Sincere, Lifestyle Reviews.

What we do.
We review mattresses! but its much more than that. We personally sleep on the mattresses we review, sometimes for weeks at a time. It takes time for our bodies to adjust and truly feel what the mattress can do for us and we believe that a review simply wouldn’t be authentic without personally living with the products that we test so we swap out our own mattresses to make this happen. And yes that sometimes means sleeping on mattresses that wouldn’t normally be our pick.
You see, unlike larger companies with a whole team, it’s just my wife and I doing all our testing in house. So we thought it wouldn’t be fair to get the mattress one day and then review it the next, its simply part of our standards. Our goal? Delivering high-quality, trustworthy information that not only informs but also resonates with you. We became experts so that you wouldn’t have to.
So Far We've Reviewed
How we make money
While we cover a significant portion of our operational expenses personally, it’s important to acknowledge that we are a business at the end of the day, so we utilize referral links throughout our website to ensure the sustainability of our services to you.
We do try to make this as transparent as possible. Essentially, when you use one of our links to make a product purchase (including Amazon), we may receive a referral commission. The good news is, there’s no additional cost to you—consider it a digital handshake expressing gratitude to us. This simple act informs the respective companies that you discovered their products through our platform.
These referral commissions play a crucial role in enabling us to pursue our passion: creating exceptional and informative content for you, your family, and friends. It’s a symbiotic relationship that allows us to keep doing what we love.
Setting High Standards
Every thought and opinion you find here is authentically ours. We don’t play favorites; each review is approached from a subjective standpoint. Not only is every mattress different but every person has different preferences and needs and we completely understand that and want to be on that journey with you every step of the way.
And while there is no one size fits all mattress, we firmly believe in providing relatable information to guide you seamlessly through the decision-making process and make it as easy and painless as possible.
As our promise to you we went a step further and created our own Authentic Review Criteria Standards or ARCS for short. It’s our own in-house certification process where we thoroughly evaluate various aspects through a series of tests, such as firmness, motion isolation, cooling and more. We aim to provide you with honest and relatable product reviews.
Independent Entity
ASL Reviews is independently owned and run from our home in Florida. There are no additional entities, so we have complete overview of the content we put forward to you. While we do maintain affiliate relationships, affiliate partners do not influence our verdicts or decisions. Our word is final.
All our reviews are performed in house so we can not only review but we can personally experience the mattresses at every aspect. From the delivery and moving the mattress all the way to sleeping and snoozing in between reviews.
