Comfortable, but a little too firm

We've had the bed now for almost two months. We're both pretty happy but wish that it was a little softer. Thinking about checking out some other brands.
We are so happy with our purchase! I wake up happy every day and love my bed. The mattress arrived quickly and was easy to unpack and set up. I am so pleased with the firmness and comfort level of the mattress. It's perfect for both me and my wife.
The pillows are the real secret. Get a few pillows because they are unbelievably comfortable paired with this mattress.
They say this bed is like a 7 on the stiffness, it is more like a 9. I am a 6'4" 290lbs guy and I barely sink into this mattress. I may sink in an inch or two at the most. My wife is 5'1" and small framed and she doesn't sink in the mattress at all, she has to put a mattress pad on her side for comfort. This may be returned at the end of our sleep trial. Hoping for the best but right now it isn't looking good. The one thing positive I can say so far is that with this mattress there are ZERO pressure points. With a typical mattress I could feel where the springs were, this would hit certain areas of my back, hips, shoulders etc. with this mattress there are no areas like that, your weight seems to be evenly distributed. I am still waiting for that one great nights sleep, I am being very hopeful as the amount of money I paid for this mattress has me crossing my fingers!
First, I want to say that the buying and delivery process was super easy and convenient. Very impressed. Second, I received the pillows first and was in love with them. The pillows alone improved my sleeping experience. They are amazing. So, the mattress itself.. my boyfriend has the Casper bed. I loved it but felt it was a little on the soft side. All the reviews I read from the ghost bed stated it was more firm than the Casper but still soft enough.. I went with that and bought the ghost bed. This is definitely more firm and coming from my last bed it was a suoridingly big difference. I'm not saying I'm hating it but I have woken up for the past week a bit stiff. I hope this improves with time. I don't think it's the fault of the mattress but just personal preference. It's a good looking mattress otherwise
We bought a Ghost Bed a few weeks ago and I couldn't be more impressed. I'm a large man(6'3" 290lbs) and this bed is very supportive and very comfortable. Thanks for making such a remarkable product. We'll recommend it to anyone that asks. Mike & Chris
