I don't know what I was missing I had a soft pillow top mattress for years, but when I got the ghost bed I am sleeping so much better. I wake up earlier and feel great.
I am sure if I was a back sleepers I would like this bed, but as a side sleeper it was way too firm and uncomfortable. I felt little response and it hurt my hips. The customer service was great though
I was watching and comparing the prices of all the new mattresses that are being advertised on Facebook (Ghost, Purple, Helix, etc.) but was afraid to try one even with the ###-night guarantees. But then I stayed at a Bed & Breakfast from AirBnB that had a similar mattress. The first night was a little rough getting used to such a firm mattress after 3 years with a pillow top mattress. But the pillow top was sinking in and no longer comfortable. By the second morning I woke up so rested and pain free. My dad even came over and tried out my new Ghost mattress for a few nights and is ordering his own now. If you have pets, I would definitely recommend getting the mattress cover sold by Ghost as it helps keep the mattress more breathable compared to my old mattress protector that just held in the heat. I also got the 2 free Ghost Pillows with my order, and those too, required some getting used to, but I love the whole package!
I don't want to get too hyperbolic. This bed hasn't cured cancer. It doesn't make me waffles every morning. But it is supportive, yet soft enough to be comfortable, and it doesn't get nearly as hot as my old foam mattress. The pillows are absolutely perfect and I definitely recommend adding them.
I'm use to having a pillow too bed. I thought I liked a soft bed and when laying down I'd just sink in and not move. That is not the case anymore! I love how firm it is. I can just tell this is a type of mattress you're not going to have to replace in 3-5 years. I'm not saying this is a too firm of mattress, but it's the right firm. Still soft enough to feel comfortable. I was one of those people who were iffy on trying this due to the fact I couldn't feel it. I'm totally glad I ordered it!!!
