I like the feel but mattress is too firm

Maybe it hasn't broken in yet but I can't sleep comfortably on my side on it, which is my preferred position. Nice to lay on but i have trouble sleeping.
Since my Ghost bed showed up I no longer wake up with lower back pain. I now sleep through the night without tossing and turning and I couldn't be happier !! Thank you Ghostbed
I've had my Ghost Bed for a little over a month now. It took about 4 days for my back to adjust to sleeping on a bed after being on a recliner to sleep for months (almost a year). From day 1 I was able to lay down on my flat on my back or even on my stomach and not lose the feeling in my leg. It's done a better job of letting me sleep and actually feel rested when I wake up more than anything that the VA has done for me. I plan to keep it.
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.
My wife and I finally decided to replace our old spring mattress after we had to get rid of our boxspring when it wouldn't fit around a tight corner in a stairwell. Faced with the prospect of purchasing a new style of bed frame just for our old mattress that wasn't comfortable even after many mattress toppers and quilted mattress pads, we decided to make the plunge and invest in a mattress we didn't hate.
After polling a number of friends who have purchased beds online, we figured out the things people didn't like and what to avoid. Researching different mattress reviews, we decided on the ghostbed because of cool sleeping, a firmer feel that you wouldn't sink into, and a fair amount of edge support and depth, despite being a foam mattress.
Despite being foam, you really do not sink into the top of this mattress like traditional memory foam. The top layer is both cooling as advertised, and surprisingly supportive and even a bit bouncy. Despite initially finding the top a bit firm for my taste (although perfect in firmness for my wife's taste), as a side sleeper, my days of waking up stiff and with hip pain are gone. I've never fallen asleep so quickly and stayed asleep so well.
