I thought maybe the mattress protector would lessen the cooling effect of the bed but decided to try it anyway. Turns out it is a must have to protect the mattress from stains and the mattress is still super cool(temperature wise) to sleep on. I highly recommend it!

We researched mattresses with Consumer Reports and then decided to take the "risk" of ordering on-line instead of visiting mattress stores (which always felt a little goofy lying on beds in a store). Ordering process was dead easy, bed and pillows arrived in two shipments, unpacking was simple (do it on the mattress base) and we gave the mattress about 14 hours before sleeping on it. It's well constructed and finished. First impression is that it's a lot firmer than I expected. It's not like lying and sinking into memory foam. The latex top causes you to sink slowly and slightly as you lie in the bed so that your spine remains flat. They say that's a good thing and after a month I'm getting a great night's sleep.

Switching from a regular spring matress to a ghost bed is something you will need to get used to. Laying on your old spring mattress, you feel it pushing back at you which you feel in different points of your body and you get that bouncy feeling. When switching to this new mattress you will get caught off guard by not having that feeling you're used to. You don't feel that push back in body parts, so you are just laying on something soft, but hard enough to maintain your body aligned and you don't bounce. Which ever position you sleep in, your body is always aligned so you wake up without cramps or discomfort. Compared to the leesa bed which I did the trial, this one has beat it to now.

Takes a while to break in, but once it does it's very comfy. It stays cool, HUGE plus! Most memory foam gets crazy hot. The pillows are good, not great, I loved them at first but they are breaking in and getting too soft for my liking. Best value for bed in a box. It also arrives fast. With 100 days to try it and the long warranty, it's kind of a no brainer.

The mattress is really comfortable, the required assembly of the box spring was kind of a surprise. Not too difficult, but what I am disappointed in, is the size of the pillows. The ghost pillow is way too small and thin. a standard pillow case can wrap around it twice. I am happy with the mattress, but disappointed with the pillows.

We recently purchased a queen size ghost bed for our daughter and a king size leesa for us. First few nights were a bit rough but after that we've been sleeping really well. However, we're leaning more towards the ghost because it feels like it provides more support. The leesa is really comfortable, but the ghost provides the same firmness but you sink into it more. We're probably going to return the leesa and purchase a king size ghost bed. The extra price for the leesa just doesn't add up when compared to the ghost bed for the same if not better comfort.

I've had my ghostbed mattress for less than a month but I am absolutely in love with it! I fall asleep as soon as I lay down, I don't toss and turn like I used to. Best decision I ever made was purchasing this mattress and the ghost pillows to go with it.

Our current mattress was only 5 years old but already had dips and sags to the point that it was time to replace it. My friend bought a Leesa which got me looking into bed-in-a-box mattresses. He said his mattress was a bit soft for his tastes, so that had me looking into other options. After TOO MUCH research, I narrowed it down to this Ghostbed, the Purple, and the Brooklyn Bedding BestMattressEver. Even though laying on it in the store tells you next to nothing, I was able to with Ghostbed since their headquarters was half an hour away. I initially thought it was a tad firm and wasn't particularly fond of it, but my wife thought we should give it a chance anyway. We decided to give it a shot and we're glad we did! It's now been a month and a half and we have no regrets. For my tastes, I was turned off by the Purple because of the higher price for no apparent reason, and one site was debating with them regarding some powder substance in their mattress. I was thinking that Brookly Bedding was an option as well but heard poor things about their customer service, plus they just came out with a new revision of their bed and I didn't want to be a guinea pig. So the combination of those things plus seeing the mattress in person tilted the scales ever so slightly to the Ghostbed. Best decision ever. Now it's time to go to bed!!!

I cannot remember the last time I had a decent night's sleep before this bed popped into my life. Tossing and turning, waking up feeling like I was hit by a truck and just generally feeling like sleep was not a friend! But once I crashed on this bed, BOOM! Lights out! I fall asleep so quickly and wake up without any soreness and feeling completely rested! Purchasing this mattress has to be one of the best decisions I've ever made! 100% recommend this bed!

Pressure points, gone. Morning backache, gone. I wake up in the morning to get ready for the day and I feel awesome! It does take a bit to get used to at first but once you do there’s no looking back, I was hesitant at first with a bed in a box but with the 101 day sleep trial I figured what the heck and I’m very glad I did.
