Great experience even though bed not for me

I was hesitant to buy a bed online for obvious reasons, but after shopping around, watching hours of reviews on Youtube etc. I decided to try it. I have a bad back and other issues with shoulder and neck, and I've always believed that a firm mattress was what I needed (and that may have been true in the past) but I was getting signals that my body was changing and that a firm mattress might not work. Unfortunately that seems to be the case, the firmness of the GhostBed didn't work for me. BUT, the delivery was fast, the mattress itself was of a high quality and was comfortable. The return policy was as stated and was quickly and efficiently processed. Even though the bed didn't work for me personally I have only good things to say about the company and the product. Five stars each for purchase, quality and return policy.
It gets worse each night. Can’t wait for the 30 days so I can start my return. I wanted to like it, but think it’s way too firm. We went with this bed because my husband wanted a firmer mattress, but we both are having back, hip, and shoulder pains. Plus, edge support is terrible. My husband literally fell out of bed one night! I was disappointed, considering how many good reviews are out there.
The pillows and the bed are super soft. To soft. I have a platform frame and I can feel the planks under the mattress. The pillows seem like they are not there. They can’t hold up my head when I would like a support. I feel good after sleeping so that is great but I can’t just relax on the bed.
I have had shoulder and neck pain for many years. My husband suggested that we purchased a new mattress to see if that would ease my pain. I researched many bed and believed that the Ghostbed would be the best for my condition. We received the mattress and after a few nights of sleep on the mattress my pain virtually went away.
Ive been surprised by the mattress. It is by far the most firm mattress Ive ever slept on. I was expecting a space aged soft but supportive mattress like you see in commercials. The ones that leave a handprint when pressed down into the foam. Not this mattress. This one doesn't even leave foot prints when walked on. Its almost like sleeping on the self inflating pad I use under my sleeping bag when camping. I only used the mattress by itself for a few days. Ive been using a 3 inch foam mattress topper on top it and its been much better. I wish the mattress was half as soft as the pillows. they are awesome.
I was a little skeptical to purchase a mattress I couldn’t test out, but I couldn’t have made a better decision! I am very happy and wake up without body aches. Love it!
