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.

This just seemed like a no brainer when ordering a new GhostBed mattress. Was somewhat easy to put together following the instructions, though they could be clearer. After assembly I had some extra bolts so I watched a video on the GhostBed site, Sure enough, a step was left off the paper instructions. If you buy, follow online instruction, or at least review before you start. Frame is very sturdy and fits the accompanying mattress perfectly. The headboard brackets are helpful, but I still had to drill new holes in my headboard. Because the frame is box spring size, it didn’t quite line up with headboard for a queen size frame. GhostBed should offer links to headboards that would fit their frame/brackets with no modification - or better yet, sell them as part of a combo so one can fully set up a new GhostBed. This frame would replace a box spring beautifully as well. I would buy again!

The bed great but the set up was a pain to say the least. The video was hard to find and the directions were of little to no help. The little metal bars didn’t seem to want to fit at all. As we were trying to get them to fit my hand slipped and it crushed my finger a little.

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.

It is an okay box spring. It was kind of expensive for what I received. The cover only goes over the top so the underside of the box spring is exposed- which I don't really like because I have small animals that go underneath my bed. Otherwise it was pretty easy to put together if you have 2 people and an electric drill.

This was our second purchase. The foundation came damaged but we have the knowledge to repair to complete the construction and get it all set up. The pillows that came with this order were not of the same construction, quality and did were not what we would call GhostPillows as we knew them. We still have two mattresses to replace in the next year or so. As previously we will consider Ghost.

What can be said here? Its a bunch of wood with screws holding it together. Some of the wood was warped and the fabric cover does not fully enclose the Foundation. It "works" but nothing about it really compels me to say anything better than Mediocre

I cannot tell how much I wish I would have just gone to my local furniture store to pick up Boxspring/Foundation. First of all what Ghostbed calls a "Boxspring/Foundation", is really just a bunch of cheap rotten pieces of wood that you have to screw together to make a basic box shape. And then throw a basic fitted sheet over it. There is literally nothing else. On top of that, they charge as much, if not more than a REAL Boxpring/Foundation. I love my mattress but I hate this foundation. It squeaks so much when you move around. And I dont think it will last more than a year. Every time I move, Im scared one of those rotten pieces of wood will break. Also its non-refundable, so save your time and money and just go pick one up at your local furniture store.

The bed frame was pretty easy to put together once we figured out that the middle bar goes diagonally instead of on the same side. The instructions do not really explain that. Once that was fixed it was smooth sailing. Good quality for a platform frame.

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.
