The mattress is so comfortable and knowing I had 3 months to try it took the apprehension out of the commitment. Everything arrived in 2 days. I slept in it that night. It is such a comfortable bed. I use the mattress pad. Also, I have neck problems and always look for a better pillow. The GhostBed pillows are AMAZING!
I immediately fell in love with this bed the first night. Sleep straight through the night which never happens. No getting adjusted to it, I immediately had comfort. I would recommend the GhostBed to anybody having trouble with their old mattress.
After 6 months of research I chose Ghost bed because it seemed to match up well with many of its competitors in terms of quality and structure but ghost bed offers a much more attractive price tag, approx $400 less on average ... I was immediately impressed after receiving my new bed only 3 days after ordering it! That was amazing. I've had it for 2 months now and the first few weeks were good, (probably because my body was so happy to be rid of my super cheap spring mattress that I had been sleeping on..) But going into my 3rd month has proved to be challenging. I am a side sleeper, and am waking up with pretty bad hip pain. Now, I will be fair to ghost bed and honest to those reading my review who are trying to decide on this mattress; I am about 300 lbs, which ghost bed states it can support... but I am tossing and turning like never before. I wake up very sore and achy. Everyone kept telling me I needed a firmer mattress because of my constant back pain but this one, even though it is memory foam, is just too firm for me. It does slowly conform to your body as you lay on it, which is nice, but it just doesn’t soften up enough to my liking. My biggest issue/ dislike is the lack in edge support, which is very common for memory foam beds. However, regardless of weight, it is almost impossible to sit at the edge of this mattress without sliding right off.. Even my very thin 7 year old daughter sunk off the edge. I prefer platform style beds because of how much I sit on mine so this just doesn’t work for me. I read tons and tons of positive reviews on this mattress which is what made me confidant to purchase it, and they can’t all be fake reviews, so I’m sure for many people, this bed is amazing, it just isn’t working for me. I plan to try a hybrid that is a mixture of coils and memory foam to provide that edge support I like and hopefully add some bounce to the bed ! I also ordered 2 ghost pillows which smelled great, not too strong like some reviews stated, but I wish they were longer. I love king size pillows because I sleep with one arm under my pillow and these are just too petite to really get comfortable with.
On a positive note, if you are still uncertain, I will give you some positive things to think about, customer service is awesome; always available to answer questions, friendly, helpful and quick to respond. Like I mentioned before, shipping is lightning speed fast! Many other companies were 2-3 weeks for delivery; I literally got this bed in 3 days. Once you get it out of the box and plastic wrap, it does the rest for you. It is very heavy so let it open up on the bed frame! But it is pretty much ready to sleep on within an hour. Also, it did not have that new mattress odor at all which made me happy. My favorite part: the 100 day trial. I would have never ordered something that I spend 8 hours a night on without being able to test it to be sure it’s right, so I am very grateful to ghost bed for this option… sad it didn’t work out but appreciate the opportunity to give it a try! In my final opinion this bed is made for people of average weight who tend to mostly sleep on their back. End scene.
