The foundation was pretty straightforward and easy to put together. The 4 star rating was because some of the holes on the slats were not pre drilled and I had to drill a few myself. Not a big deal for me, but could be a concern if you did not have drill.

Cheap crappy boxspring. Arrived with the planks split, and the black pins stuck between misaligned boards. Definitely ruined the experience of buying such a nice expensive mattress. One would expect there to be quality across the entire line of products, but apparently not. I'd recommend just looking elsewhere for one.

I knew I wasn't sleeping well with my old boxsprings, but I had no idea how drastic the change would be with this foundation. It is solid, NEVER moves, and never makes even the slightest sound, even when my 8-year-old jumps on my bed to wake me up on the weekend. :) The price was very reasonable, and the assembly was super simple. Would recommend to anyone!

The mattress is comfortable, but firmer than I was expecting, and much firmer than what I'm used to. The ordering process was easy, and shipping was fast, BUT the mattress and foundation were shipped from two different warehouses, and were delivered a day apart, so I had to take two days off work to receive the items instead of one, this was an inconvenience. The pillows are great, no complaints there. The foundation is the weak link in the chain. It was frustrating to assemble, and several of the planks split when I screwed them down. A couple of the planks were warped as well, causing the screw not to be able to find purchase on the other end, so they wouldn't stay down at all. I ended up having to purchase longer screws so that the warped planks would hold. If I had it to do over, I would not have bought the foundation, and just stuck with my old box spring.

We bought this bed for our new house that we bought and as well we needed a mattress. All I can say we don't want to get out of bed every morning lol. We love it! And my husband says he doesn't complain about his back hurting him! Will continue to purchase in future too!

After looking at several different “mattress in a box” online, I decided on Ghostbed and I couldn’t be happier. I ordered a king size mattress and boxspring along with 2 Ghostbed pillows and the mattress protector. They all arrived within 4 days of me placing my order. The king size mattress and boxspring are heavy (they are king size after all) so you will probably need 2 people to carry them and unbox them. The boxspring is super easy to set up, just make sure you have a power screwdriver before you start and it will only take about 30 min to complete. The mattress is as simple as taking it out of the box and carefully cutting the wrapping off of it and letting it expand. It only took about 15 min. for the mattress to finish expanding and I placed the mattress protector on it. I sleep on it that night and it felt great, maybe a little firmer than I was used to, but still great. Over the next few nights it started to feel even better and not as firm as the first night. I would say after my 30 nights of sleeping on it I would rank it a 6.5 on firmness on a 1-10 scale. I can tell a big difference in my old spring mattress vs. Ghostbed, in that the Ghostbed seems to keep my neck and my body supported much better the my old spring mattress. The pillows are also very comfortable and seem to go well with the mattress. I would highly recommend Ghostbed to any of my friends and family who were having trouble sleeping due to their current mattress and with the 101 night trial what do you have to lose.

I've had my mattress on the floor since I moved into my home 2 years ago. It's not been much of an issue for me but my boyfriend has said he's been having back pain. I knew buying a frame and a box spring would be pricey but this came across my feed and I was sold. It was quick delivery to my house, within a week. It was quick and easy to put together, it took us less than an hour to put it together. It's now been a couple weeks with our new foundation and he says his back has felt SO much better than it was before. It's been a lot easier to sleep, that's for sure. Also, now I have storage under my bed so that we don't have Junk all over the room. I love this purchase!

I was up for screwing in all 48 screws, but less than a third of the pilot holes lined up so I had to drill new holes. One row of slats was shorter on one side and a couple slats were split and had large slivers missing. After all that assembly, the foundation was more narrow than the bed frame. Definitely not worth the price

I wasn't happy with the quality of the pieces. The wooden guide rail to align the ends didn't match up. The wood isn't planed well and isn't straight. Kinda cheap it my opinion and I wouldn't buy it again. Some screw holes did not line up either btw.

Well...Easy Set Up! Watch the Video on How to assemble is the best way. Where the bars go I did have 4 plastic pieces where you insert the bars broke in transit but thankfully they had 4 extra pieces in the bag with the bolts. I find the height is perfect at 15 inches, not to high not to low. My other bed was a couple inches higher which I liked at the time but prefer this height now where I can actually sit on the bed a put my socks on! I did a lot of research before buying this platform and I would have to say I'm glad I did because for the price, quality is top notch in this price range. I have a small bedroom and this was perfect for that reason and the fact it's Solid! I've been sleeping on it for over a month and find it has improved my new memory foam mattress for comfort and support. Thank You :)
