Queen Ghost Bed Review

For the last couple years I was getting really bad upperback, shoulder, and neck pain. This caused me to lack restful sleep and my massage therapist would tell me I had bad knots in my shoulders. A friend of mine who also has a bad back told me the ghost bed was working well for him. I figured I would give it a go, given I had 101 nights to try it out.
The first few nights on my new ghost bed where not very pleasant. I believe it was because my lower back was not used to being supported correctly. I've now been sleeping on my ghost bed for over 6-weeks and I love it. My nights are restful and I no longer wake up with pain in my upperback, shoulders, and neck. Also, My massage therapist is pleased she no longer has to spend an hour only working the knots out of my back.
I had never purchased a mattress before and when I went to a local mattress store, I felt more pressured than at a car dealership. I decided to look into online ordering and after reading many reviews and comparisons, decided on purchasing a GhostBed.
The purchasing portion online was super simple, and I even got approved to finance the bed at 0% interest. My bed arrived about 3 days later at my doorstep. Setting up the mattress was very easy; open the box, cut the plastic, and wait a few minutes for the bed to expand.
I have been sleeping on the mattress for just about 3 weeks now. It is probably the best sleep I've had ever. I used to not be able to sleep comfortably on my left side, but now I can go the whole night sleeping any which way and wake up feeling good. The bed is soft, but firm at the same time. I have a hard time explaining the feel, but it is a great in-between point that supports my body while still feeling soft and comfortable.
I intend to pick up the bed frame soon as I currently have the mattress laying flat on the floor. There doesn't seem to be any issue with having the mattress on the floor, except that it could be a bit easier to get out of bed since it's so low to the ground. I also intend to pick up one of their pillows soon too. If its anything like the bed, it'll be great.
When it comes to beds I prefer a firm surface. Since I received the bed I haven't had a bad night. It has enough firmness to give excellent support to my back, but enough give to allow me to maneuver myself and get comfortable quickly. Great Buy.
After months of research and indecisiveness, I decided most online memory foam beds seemed to be relatively similar to each other. Terms like "cooling" and "recovery" are thrown around willy nilly. So after one final night of being swayed by "graphite infused healing cool memory gel latex extra terrestrial egyptian infrared healing crystals," I decided to go with Ghost Bed. The BEST warranty, good quality, lower price, no outlandish claims without science backing it up, and made by a long running company with experience. Mattress is not too soft, and not too firm. My back feels way better than it did with my old lumpy spring bed and I am not waking up a million times every night. My girlfriend and cats all approve as well.
Shipping was quick and right on time. We love the pillows we got, however, the mattress is a little to firm for my me. It does help with my back pain, I just would like it to be a little softer.
My husband enjoys a firm bed, whereas I typically sleep better with a less firm mattress. This mattress is great for both of us. This bed is very comfortable for all types of sleeps, back side and stomach. We believe this was a well made purchase.
The mattress is a bit more firm than I expected it to be. So there was a bit of an adjustment period but all is well now. I sweat a lot less do sure. Pillows are pretty amazing.
