I've always slept on what I've always thought is the Cadillac of beds: Stearns and Foster. But at 12-years old, it had a huge dip in the middle and I dreaded both going to bed at night and waking up in the morning. I think I researched all the beds in the universe but was too hesitant to buy anything online and didn't want to mess with the nightmarish hassle and expense of buying in a store. Then, I met a woman with some severe physical issues who had the Ghostbed, and her review was all I needed to get online later that night and purchase it for myself. I don't always trust the validity of online reviews, but it's hard to doubt a face-to-face one. I'd NEVER heard of Ghostbed and now I think it's the greatest thing since sliced bread. My first night sleeping on it, I actually got no sleep because I was enjoying how comfortable and pain-free I was. I don't have any physical problems, just a broken down bed that was daily cricking my back and neck and making my chiropractor rich. I cannot rave about this miraculous bed enough. The degree to which it has improved the quality of my life is immeasurable. Thank you, Ghostbed, for existing. :-)
We have had our mattress for about a month now and we totally love it! I love the firmness and the softness of the mattress. I also enjoy the fact when there is movement in the Bed you cannot feel it. Definitely worth the investment. No longer waking up with an achy back as well.
I rate this a 4-star simply because I've never slept on an amazing mattress, so I can't compare it to a great one. As someone who has slept on very cheap spring mattresses since I made my way out of the cradle as a child, this is a fantastic mattress. Previously I would toss and turn all night and regardless of how many hours I slept I would still wake exhausted. Since purchasing a Ghost Bed mattress I barely move at all in my sleep and finally wake feeling rested after an average 8 hours sleep. I guess I should note that I am on the heavier side, so if you're thin or around an average weight your experience could be quite different.
I know my brother and Sister in law love their Ghost mattress, but it is a little to firm for my liking. The delivery and set up was simple and easy so I really wish this was the mattress for me, but I will be returning once my 30 days is over.
