Sturdy but was quite a pain to put together. Got a few splinters in my hands while working on it. Bought a Casper bed as well; same concept, but they wrap their frame pieces in cloth to make it look nicer and prevent splinters, and they don’t have you screw anything together. I like their product better, as far is boxsprings are concerned.

The only impressive part about this foundation is that is comes in a box. The assembly instructions are fair, but fail to provide indication of which end would go toward the head or foot of the bed. Ultimately, it doesn't matter, but even that direction was missing. The horizontal slats are supposed to be predrilled, but not all of them were. The foundation cover is disappointing. It is nothing more than a fitted sheet, which leaves a bunch of exposed wood under your bed. If you live in an area with lots of bugs or (heaven forbid) a mouse got in your home, there is a lovely place to hang out. A zippered cover would've been nice, considering the price of the foundation.

We were looking for a way to comfortably raise our current foam mattress, because of my bad knees. This was so easy to set up, it's easy to move around on our hardwood flooring, and the height is perfect. Once we can, we'll be investing in a GhostBed mattress, too!

Strong. All metal. Feels very supportive and not weakened in any areas after lying down on the mattress. Love to be able to control the heights at 3” or 6” higher. But the instructions didn’t seem explicit enough to place the middle supports. Had to redo. That is why for the “4” rating! And just a slight more pricey but support makes up for it! Thank you ghost bed!!

I am a women in my 40s who knows how to use a drill, thank goodness. I had my 2 teens help me put his large foundation together. It took us about an hour and a half to put together. My complaint was that some of the pieces of wood had small cracks in them and I was worried that the wood would split more when I drilled the screws in but it turned out ok. The wood pieces were supposed to have indicators on where to put the screws but some of the wood did and some didn't or they were completely off from where they should be. Luckily, I have experience with using a drill and putting things together. However, if you don't have experience this will be difficult to assemble and you will need at least one helper. All in all it turned out great and supports the mattress well.

Where do I start this foundation was really easy to set up (took about 30 minutes with a standard screwdriver). The pieces were easily marked and readable for me to identify what goes where. The foundation is stylish, comfortable for my mattress to lay on, and does not make a sound! I am very impressed thus far with Ghostbed.

The mattress itself is wonderful. The smell that’s been mentioned was initially apparent but dissipated within 24 hours. Ordering was simple. Putting the foundation together was a little more taxing than I imagined but it’s definitely solid. The only complaint is that my queen bundle was packaged and shipped in 3 separate shipments and I received an ivory foundation cover instead of gray. I didn’t receive a clear notification that I would be receiving three separate shipments but after I reached out to customer service, everything was straightened out immediately. In the end, I got what I ordered plus an ivory foundation cover and I have been satisfied with my purchase.

The foundation pieces were delivered in a box with detailed instructions for assembly. The center beam brackets were installed upside down at the factory. After a quick adjustment, the foundation went together quickly. Overall a little more work than intended, but still a great concept. Also, the company communicated a delay in arrival and expedited shipping to compensate.

I was sceptical about the easy to assemble for a king bed box that comes to you in pieces. But it was thought out well and was not difficult to put together. Having a screw gun handy is a necessity. One of the boards was twisted and split while assembling, but wood glue does wonders.

We purchased this bed after trying several foam mattresses in the stores. With a little hesitancy and help from the reviews we bought the ghost mattress. It came 3 days later & we even slept on it that night! We absolutely love it! Firm in the beginning but softens a bit. Great mattress for the money.
