I wanted to like this bed. My sister and brother-in-law have it and love it. However, it's just too firm for my husband and me. I've had it 2.5 weeks, so still holding out for a few more to see if it softens up any, but I'm doubtful at this point. It has really helped with my hip pain, but has created shoulder pain due to its firmness. Also, I love how the pillows feel, but they have a lavender smell to them that I was hoping would go away, but hasn't; I've been waking up with a headache quite often and think it's because of the smell!

After reading Consumer Reports and some other reviews we decided to give GhostBed a try. When it arrived we let it rest at room temp and that night we saw the warnings that you need to give the bed a few nights to get used to it. It was surprisingly too hard. When I think of foam I think of a little give but the mattress is extremely firm. After the 3rd night I actually had to leave the bed and go to our couch so I could get some sleep. We have put a topper on it and still plan to return it after our full 30 days. I wish it would have worked, the order and delivery process was great. We will see how the return process goes.

We had tried out 4-5 mattresses before we switched to the ghost bed. They were either too soft where you sunk into the bed and woke up with. Bad back or too firm where you'd toss to get comfortable and wake up hurting! Nothing seemed to have the soft but firm feel. Until we ordered our queen and then fell in love and then we upgraded to a king and we realized we weren't getting a good night rest on the bed that was given to us we decided to go back to ghost bed and now we won't ever get anything else!

Downsized, needed a new matress. Tried competition...sorry, not for me, back pain day 1. 30 days later (because everyone says to give it at least 30 days) 28 days of back pain. Ordered Ghost matress, day 1, no more back issues. Thank You Ghost! Love it.

I spent months going over reviews trying to decide which "bed in a box" to purchase. There are a lot of top competitors, but I just kept being drawn back to Ghost Bed. One night I finally pulled the trigger and hit the buy button. Two days later it arrived and I've slept better ever since. I used to have horrible back pain and waking up was just an endless cycle of facing reality again. Start the day feeling like crap and end the day feeling like crap. Literally after the first night with Ghost Bed I awoke to no pain at all. It was weird... I used to sleep with pillows under my knees and arms for added support, now I sleep with only one under my head. Whatever these mad scientists have created, it's the best thing to come into my life. I wake up feeling actually fine, and with more energy. A+++ rating.

This mattress takes a very long time to get used to the heavier you are. If you weigh over 320 lbs and sleep on your side. This mattress takes just about 90 days to break in. Around the 60 day mark it actually gets better. If they offered a refund longer than 60 I would take it because the first 30 was horrible. Now it's actually better but still a little hard to sleep. You don't move a lot so being intimate is also troublesome since the weight is more than recommended.

The mattress is amazing. Its firm, but comfortable and I find myself sleeping way better. The purchase process was smooth, and the delivery was great. Assembly of the foundation was a bit of a pain, and the end product is terrible (its weak and falls apart easily). The mattress setup is quick and easy, and well worth it.

My daughter and son-in-law convinced me to buy a Ghost Bed telling me that it was the most comfortable that they've ever had. My son-in-law should know since he's had back surgery. I was skeptical that a bed that was rolled up and delivered to your home could be comfortable, but I'm glad I took the chance. I haven't had such a good sleep in a very long time. The pillows are fabulous, too. Absolutely no regrets here.

This mattress is NOT for me. I haven't had a good night's sleep in the 3+ weeks I have had it. I've tried everything, I just don't think I weigh enough for this mattress. I'm also a side sleeper, and I've definitely felt better. The best night of sleep I've had since I bought it was when I was out of town for the night on a hotel's mattress. The only positive I can say is that my dogs no longer wake me up jumping in and out of the bed at night (although it's hard to fall asleep in the first place). I can't wait to 'return' this mattress and get something better.

The mattress itself is great, I love it. The boxspring foundation sucks though, I wish I would have gotten it anywhere else. Its just a bunch of cheap, half-rotten, brittle wood pieces that you screw together to form a basic "box". It squeaks also, which drives me nuts. But again the mattress is fantastic.
