We tried the purple mattress, and returned it after a few months, loved the no pressure points on the purple, but it was too thin and would bottom it when sitting. Don't have that problem with the ghostbed, feels nice to sit on, and don't bottom out. However it doesn't relieve pressure points like the purple, and feels more like a soft coil mattress, which is what we were getting away from in first place. My back has hurt every night/morning since laying on the ghostbed... It's been a few weeks, trying to give it a fair shot and trying to assist to it. Overall it's a very well built mattress and has a very high quality feel to it. Just may not be for us.
We have been sleeping on our Ghostbed King for two weeks. Sleeping has become a joy. This mattress is everything they say it is. My back thanks you!!!!
It took me a few months to pull the trigger and order this mattress. My husband and I are so glad we did. This bed is amazing. We sleep so good on it. Its true that it took a few nights to get adjusted but then it just seems to fit. We both sleep great and we are now thinking of purchasing a second one for one of our guest rooms. I was skeptical at first, but seriously this mattress is great.
Overall I'm pleased with the bed ... I'm sleeping well on it and previous lower back pain is gone. It is a little firm, however. I'm a side sleeper and it has taken me time to adjust and I'm considering a topper. I'd recommend the mattress to others, but would advise new owners to be patient; use the duration of your trial before making a decision about keeping the mattress.
Great mattress - trying get the best use out of it.

I purchased the queen size GhostBed with the mattress cover and GhostPillows. I got this mattress to replace an old pillow-top, so the difference was so stark it's hard to say it was merely an "improvement". I already knew I wanted more support (the GhostBed has a nice moderate firmness) and movement isolation (I can now get in and out of bed without shaking my girlfriend awake). The new mattress is supported by the old box spring, which I think takes away some of the GhostBed's support and stability. I'll probably try it on a platform at some point, and see how things improve. For now, however, the GhostBed is providing a much-improved sleep. And the GhostPillows are incredibly comfortable and supportive, though with a distinct mild chemical odor. That doesn't really bother me though, and should dissipate with time. Other mail-order mattresses I had considered included the Casper (tried in-store) and Purple, but after a lot of research I went with GhostBed and I'm pleased with the product(s).
My GhostBed is something that has been a life changer. I get more R.E.M. Sleep than I have had before, along with waking up daily with no back pain. Highly recommend
