The ordering process and delivery process was super simple. The mattress arrived in a large box and the ghost pillows arrived in a separate box. Both arrived at the same time. Packaging was excellent and beautiful. Opening the boxes was lots of fun and watching the mattress take form was awesome. Sleeping is comfortable on this bed, but can get somewhat warm. No body aches or hard pressure is felt while sleeping and I can sleep in the same position all night. The only thing is that the cooling gel technology only keeps your body cool for so long and body heat may get trapped. Maybe light blankets should be used instead of medium comforters.
My wife and I sleep pretty much on top of each other. All previous beds we have owned developed a bird bath within the first year. Our Comfort level has dramatically improved and we are finally feeling well rested without any soreness. Thank you very much Nature's Sleep
I reviewed several beds before deciding to try the Ghostbed. I selected this bed because it matched several of my health problems and current sleeping patterns. I have had my bed now over thirty days and I will be keeping it. I'm now able to get up 4 hours of continuous sleep versus the 1-2 hours on my old mattress. I have Osteoporosis and numerous degenerative disks in my spine and neck and I was wakened by pain and the need to re-position to alleviate the pain. Also this bed had the highest rated edge of the bed firmness which helps make it easier to get up out of bed in the morning. I would advise anyone considering this bed to read the reviews before making a decision as this bed is not for everyone. It is very firm and for best results needs to be in a certain temperature range to get maximum comfort. I will probably get a Gel Foam topper to further benefit my sleep as it is firm. Also allow time to assemble the box spring, this took my wife and I less than 45 minutes with a drill used a power screwdriver for the screws. The only reason I can't give my purchase a 5 star rating is the pillows aren't as firm as the mattress. This makes on pillow to low and two pillows to high to keep my neck in line with my spine.
Our last mattress suffered from sag after only three or so years, so we tried this.. took a few weeks to adjust to its relative firmness and I've still got to find an appropriate pillow because with this mattress my shoulders don't sink in as far as they used to. Seems to be a keeper, though! Wife likes it so.... happy wife; happy life!
We bought the king size mattress and at 3 weeks in the mattress is still too firm. My husband and I have been waking up with sore backs, hips and shoulders. I'm hoping that it softens up soon because if not we will have to return the mattress.
I had it for a week and it is very supporting and comfortable. It took me the first night to get use to it. After that , I have been getting a great night sleep. With my old mattress I use to get up several times at night due getting my arms numb. That is no longer an issue and I am sleeping through the night. So far so good.
