GhostBed Classic 11 Inch Cool Gel Memory Foam & Latex Mattress - Medium-Firm Feel, Made in The USA, Twin XL

The bed may take a few days to ship, but it travels quickly from there. The initial delivery date that is listed is accurate to when it arrives. The bed is easy to move in the box. You can bring it right up to the bedframe and unpacking it there for easy set up. I have a bad back and chronic pain. I sleep very well on it with minimal discomfort. I can sleep on it with and without a pregnancy pillow for support and it is comfortable either way. The mattress is not too heavy either. This makes maneuverability low effort. The price is well worth the quality. I was suggested it from someone else who has had theirs for 5 years now with no issues and it is still just as good as they day they bout it. I am more than happy with my purchase.

I had to purchase a new bed, the other half wanted her bed back. So many bed choices, which one should I get. Last time I bought a bed, I went to a store. I laid down on a few and made a choice. It's hard to tell what your really going to like until you sleep a night or so on it. I filled out their questionnaire and went with their recommendation. NAILED IT. I'm typically a side sleeper. Ive never been able to sleep on my back. I noticed a difference in comfort the first night. Ive had it 4 days now and love it. I actually slept on my back last night. Great bed..

Purchased: Queen sized GhostBed. I ordered this Saturday night, it arrived by 11am on Wednesday - NICE!! Even though it was listed as about 80 lbs, I was totally able to get it out of the box, drag it up my stairs by the plastic & up onto my box spring, by myself. It's vacuum packed so it was compacted in the plastic & was very easily dragged. Once I cut off the plastic, it started springing to life. I was able to use it immediately. Since this is a HUGE life decision, this review may be the longest one I've done yet....I LOVE LOVE this bed. I planned on giving it about a week prior to reviewing, but after 2 nights, I'm stoked! I've battled severe insomnia since I was in high school, I'm 45 now. I've slept on many o mattresses over the years (vacations, friends/family homes, etc). Most all were too hard, too soft, or just flat out uncomfortable - sometimes I'd end up on the couch. I've slept on Tempurpedics a few times and I do NOT like them at all! Not only did they hold body heat, they are too foamy like, too squishy, too soft, and takes too long to remold once you move positions... I have 3 beds in my house and 2 couches... Bouncing back & forth hoping for a good nights sleep that night.Now, this GhostBed. The first night, my dogs slept so deeply that it was hard for me to get the full effect of the bed, they didn't move! LOL They LOVE it too! So... last night. I made the dogs wait until I got comfy before letting them up. I slept from 2am to 8am! I have not slept longer than 2 hours in years! That's 6 hours! I woke up and felt ready to conquer the world today! OMG, I can't stress enough how important & awesome this was for me! Although a similar design to Tempurpedics... the GhostBed is not as squishy or foamy-like, my body did NOT sink as much as I thought it would (I'm a plus sized gal). I had read that the GB was great for side sleepers... I TOTALLY agree! I didn't even need to put a pillow between my legs, which I've done for years!! The body alignment was so perfect, I didn't need it!! I even went from using 2-3 pillows to one!! I don't know about the remolding when you reposition, because I barely moved! And usually I thrash about constantly to find that comfy position! A few reviews mentioned the cooling factor... it's weird. When I got up, the GB was very warm to the touch, my blankets were warm as well, but I did NOT feel heated at all, I'll tell you what!!!!!!!!!!!!! it was so strange! It's like the GB absorbes the heat & just keeps it from effecting you! I also like that the sheet tends to stay more in place than it does on a smoother surfaced mattress.Overall so far, I am EXTREMELY happy with this bed! It'll be interesting to see how long it will last, hopefully for a long while... although it's cheaper than a store bought mattress (for the most part), it would be just as expensive, if not more, if it's having to be replaced 2-3 times to one store bought mattress...it replaced one I've had for 7 years. so we'll see.Now ya'all just need to design the perfect pillow!

I've waited a few months to post my thoughts--just to give the bed a chance. My review is a bit jumbled but touches on most points.~Bed & boxspring arrived as promised and was very easy to set up.~The mattress itself is no way a "firm" but I would say a 6-7/10. Very comfortable but def not firm, as I had read in several reviews (and I read a lot).~I was skeptical from day one but I will not be returning this bed. I wish I hadn't waited so long to buy it. I've had a painful hip for 2 yrs; hard to walk 1st thing in the am or get out of a chair (and I'm pretty young). This pain TOTALLY disappeared after the 1st night's sleep on the new mattress---obviously our old mattress was to blame..~I read a lot of reviews that said you cannot feel the tossing & turning of your partner...this is somewhat false. When sleeping, I am not awakened by my husband moving around but when I am awake, I do get the tossing and turning waves.~The edges are not supportive at all; I literally roll out of bed each morning. I knew this b4 purchasing and it isn't really a problem for us. Now, who's to say in 5 yrs the mattress won't have sloping edges?~Regular King fitted sheet is a bit too large for the mattress but we don't really care about that -- just putting it out there for others.~This bed hasn't been around long enough to know what to expect in 8-10yrs but for now we are happy.~I would definitely recommend purchasing. I would give 4.5 stars (if possible)--just wish the mattress was a tad firmer.

Ok, I'm being a little over-dramatic here. However, this mattress has made it so difficult to get out of bed! My back doesn't hurt like it used to and I fall asleep a lot sooner. Not sure if it's entirely due to the mattress(I've started excercising more), but the timing is very suspect.Set-up is easy, but don't even try to move the box yourself! Have your significant other, kids, or even the neighbor if necessary help you(the offer of pizza helps tremendously!). The mattress was ready for sleeping by that evening. It sleeps cool(for me anyways) thanks to the latex top layer and feels supportive enough for my ample frame. There's practically no movement either when climbing in/out which is good if the person you share the bed with has different sleeping habits.If you've read my other reviews you'll see I don't just give 5 stars to everything. It's gotta be a game-changer and for me the GhostBed certainly is! Results may vary from person to person, but pairing with a proper pillow(I use a generic memory foam/gel one) is important. My daughter asked why they call it 'GhostBed' and I told her it's because it's SCARY how good it is(sorry...I had to).Jae

I am writing this review in comparison to a Novosbed I also own (medium firm level, no added topper). The ghostbed is as advertised, it sleeps medium/ firm. When it first arrived I found it to be a little on the firm side, but after about 10 nights sleeping on it, the mattress began to break in a little and soften up just slightly. The latex top layer is definitely more responsive than memory foam and this has pros and cons in my opinion. If you sleep on your back you will find the ghostbed very supportive and comfortable. If you sleep on your side this is where I feel the Novosbed is advantaged as it provides a little more comfort against your hip and shoulder. By contrast, if you sleep hot, the ghostbed is the clear winner as I have not experienced sleeping hot on it, but would occasionally feel the Novosbed was trapping heat based on the top memory foam layer. In my opinion it doesn't really matter how comfortable a mattress is if you are constantly waking up feeling warm and shifting positions.In summation, I think the ghostbed is a great value option for those that like a medium firm mattress, sleep on their back and want a mattress that keeps them sleeping cool. If you sleep on your side, and want a little more comfort, you may want to contrast the ghostbed with some other memory foam options.

It is definitely comfortable and supportive. My partner - who is very particular about needing good spinal alignment- definitely approves. The bed does compress at the edges but the fall off sensation is very, very minor and I got used to it shortly. It breathes well and the latex on top is aerated so it does create a sensation of air flow movement. I do on some occasions wake up in a bit of a 'hot spot' .. moving over to the other side is always a treat because it'll be cold to the touch. Off gassing was a bit of a concern, but the smell went away after a week (poor circulation in my bedroom surely did not help).This bed is built with stronger and more durable components by comparison to other bed-in-a-box rivals. That alone was key in my purchase of the Ghost Bed. It arrived shortly but sure was HEAVY. Try to have someone home with you to get it into the bedroom. Very solid mattress overall. Would like a more comprehensive Canadian experience (website directs you to Amazon and your return period is shortened to 30 days).Looking forward to sleep each night/morning (shift worker here by the way). Stamp of approval!

Spent too many ours reading about Bed-in-a-box - memory foam type beds. I became my own worse enemy. For every 3 bed companies cropping up, there is a review site with many reviews. Many of these sites are sponsored by some of the bed companies, though not all. As a result, many sites contradict one another.I chose this bed for these reasons. Weight; all the sites mentioned weight as an important factor as it directly correlates to quality materials. Latex; high quality beds are latex. Nature's Sleep; parent company, maker of quality bedding. Amazon; another layer of protection if it didn't work out.All that to say that the bed, a month in, is breaking in very nicely. First week was rough (why the 4 stars) but now I am sleeping 7-9 hours pain free for the first time in years! And the bed is only getting better a month later!Update. Two years later and I still absolutely love this bed. Without question is as good as some of the 5 star suites I’ve been lucky enough; by happenstance, to sleep on in the last two years. Would purchase again and would highly recommend.

The mattress was delivered as promised. I have been sleeping on it for 2 weeks. I thought it was too hard at first and my back was sore for the first 4 nights but after that my backache went away and I was also sleeping through the night for the first time in years. No more tossing and turning. I've also started using 2 pillows which I believe has helped as well. Last night I slept on the side of the mattress that I don't usually sleep on and this morning my back was a bit sore. There is definitely some break in time needed. My biggest concern buying this mattress was that it would be too hot. This has not been a problem at all. I weigh 235 lbs and am a side sleeper.

Just bought it and my pain upon waking up is down, love it
