I would've never thought about buying a bed from online being that I couldn't test it out like a mattress at a store. I heard SO many great reviews on this mattress from a TON of different people. My husband and I were in such a desperate need, we knew ANYTHING would be an upgrade from what we had. So we gave it a whirl and ordered the king size, with the three ghost pillows. Amazing. I've been sleeping SO good, my husband doesn't snore like a chainsaw anymore. Our backs don't bother us. Definitely hive ghost bed a try!
So to begin, my fiance and I both believe this bed is an upgrade from our old mattress. Putting the box spring together was simple enough but the pieces didn't fit smoothly together. They don't appear to be machine cut. The mattress itself unpacked easily and was ready to be slept on in about 45 minutes. I love this bed. I sleep better and toss less. My fiance likes it too, but she would prefer something softer. This mattress is on the firmer side which, depending on your preference, is great. Overall, we are satisfied with the bed. I give it 5 stars and she gives it 4. I applied the lowest rating to ensure others who might have the same issue are informed of our experience.
At first, I didn't think the mattress would be thick enough for us and our weight. I was very pleasantly surprised. It's a lot firmer and sturdier than I thought. We bought the foundation as well and it was fairly easy to put together. Make sure you have enough space cleared to work though. We love the ghost pillows as well. They are a lot softer than the bed but very comfortable.
We had to sleep on it for a week or two to get it to soften up but now its great. I have mine on a foundation with wood slats for support without any box spring and it feels like perfect height and we sleep well.
I was expecting to write a 3 or 4 star review but the mattress was better than that. Delivery was fast, off gassing was only around 48-72 hours until the smell was 100% gone, comfortable and supports on my side, back, or stomach. Sheets fit just fine and the wife and dog are just as pleased as I am.
