Used to have an super expensive mattress from those big box stores and I had backnpain all the time. Switched over to ghost bed with these awesome ghost pillows and back pain is no more. Perfect amount of bounce and plush. Awesome bed, I'd recommend to anyone who gets back pain.
The way this thing manages heat is amazing! The vented latex on top of gel-infused foam keeps chilly me and my hot-natured partner perfectly balanced. (Try Sheex sheets for even greater effect...) The combination of conformity and support with just a little bounce is also perfect for my bad back and her stomach sleeping. All in all, couldn't ask for a better mattress.
It's been a long time since we had a new mattress and I expected to need a couple of weeks to "adjust" but I hadn't had better sleep in a long time. I have some back issues and this bed makes it so I can wake up in no pain every morning. The ghostbed and the ghost pillow together are "eerily" amazing!
My girlfriend and I would like to give this mattress a 5 out of 5 review, however, the mattress is smaller in the length and width than advertised. It currently is smaller by roughly 1-2 inches in both width and length and has a smaller footprint than the foundation below it. This not only looks weird but creates an odd situation where you find yourself hitting your legs against the foundation because it jukes out below the mattress.
Ok, I'll try to keep this concise: im a cautious shopper and am very intentional when I buy big things like beds. I took a big chance buying a bed I hadn't felt yet, so I relied mostly on the reviews. I appreciated when people shared their height and weight and how firm the bed was still. Im 5'4", 135 lbs and am very picky about firm beds. Its the first thing I test in a hotel to prepare myself if in going to sleep well or not! I got my Ghost bed and first, the box was HEAVY. In a single woman who has learned to be creative about getting things accomplished bc of my size, but I do suggest 2 people. I did not get a box spring btw..I have a platform bed. I finally dragged it to my room and while I still had my old mattress, i opened the ghosted and let it "inflate" on top of my old mattress bc it said a flat surface and I didn't know if the slats were going to be ok. I opened it in the morning and by the time I got home from work, it was all set. I was able to slide it off of my old mactress, take out the old and put the ghosted back. Mind you, the whole day I was anxious about how it would feel. I sat on it after I got it back in place and it felt a little soft. I was disappointed. I had no choice but to sleep on it and figure how to return it later. Well....i slept on it. It was perfect. I couldn't believe it and I couldn't be happier. I've had it for 2 months now and it is the perfect firmness. Doesn't get hot..that was my other hesitation of getting a foam mattress. My girlfriend liless beds that are softer and she gets really hot naturally when she sleeps, so I thought for sure she wouldn't like it...we are totally opposite when it comes to sleeping. But she thought it was very comfortable and didn't get hot. It is not soft, it is supportive. Im very glad I took the chance and hapay with my purchase.
