I thought that since having back problems and reading all the reviews this mattress would be the end all to my sleep problems but boy was i wrong. This mattress is way too firm for me and actually hurts my back even more. I toss and turn through the night and barely get rest i ended up sleeping on my couch. But the pillows are AMAZING
It has not lasted past 3 months. On top the protective cover is not waterproof. It grabs on to everything. I mean dirt grass or anything you have to pull it off they it rips the fibers up. The community I spoke to about was horrible. Telling me who oh well. I then spoke to Ghost people an they told me the same. I asked how can they treat Army Vets so bad. An they told me they donate so much they do not care. I am beyond dissapointed. Worst bed. The box it came in was totally destroyed. They told me its in a thick plastic its fine. Did not even care. Then i got the mattress two weeks before the box spring. An i was told to just put the mattress on the floor. I said we cant we are older cannot be bending up an down like that too much because my back. They said oh sorry wait. Worst company by far.
Mattress is too firm. Haven't had a restful night since I purchased it. The pillows are better and have cushioning and support. I do like the thickness of the mattress. Will be returning it to try another brand.
So I received my mattress super fast and it was easy (and fun!) to take it out of the box. However- My boyfriend and I find it to be a little too firm for our tastes. We are sleeping better- just wish I had a little more fluff on top. I do notice that I am a little cooler at night which is amazing because I normally sleep so hot! Not sure yet if we will keep it, we are still in our 101 night trial. We will see in a couple of months how we are adjusting I suppose.
I do want to say that we LOVE LOVE LOVE the Ghost Pillows. They are so comfy and smell so wonderful and keep our heads cool at night. I have been recommending those to all of my family and friends.
I'm having a hard time getting use to the mattress. I wake up with soreness in my hip and legs at times. It's much more firm than what we had before but I'm willing to give it some time.
I was worried that the bed would be too soft and trap heat. A big no on both points. It's just the right amount of firmness and is not any warmer than my old coil spring mattress. I also received two free pillows which was a big bonus. With all that being said I usually got about six hours of sleep, however I now get about one more hour a night. So far so good.
