GhostBed Classic 11 Inch 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.

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!

We wanted a queen size mattress for our small Adirondack "camp" loft which has a small, narrow stairway access. A regular queen size mattress would not fit, but the mattress in a box maybe just barely would. After some research and our desire for a firm mattress I decided on a GhostBed due to its 6.5 to 7 out of 10 firmness rating. Getting the 89 pound GhostBed squeezed up the stairs and into the loft was a challenge for my wife and I, but it worked! As soon as the plastic wrap was cut off, the thing came to life, breathing in air and opening up. Hearing and watching it expand and spread was like experiencing a magic show, unbelievable. I am surprised at how firm it is, but it is delivering the comfortable sleep we were hoping for, and I awake with no back pain. We am very well pleased with our GhostBed,and especially now having a queen size bed in the loft. A pat on the back for Amazon... The first mattress arrived on a Friday, suspiciously, not in a box, and was obviously one sent back to the manufacturer and repackaged. Full price for a repackaged mattress was not going to work. We had guests coming on Monday. Freaking out, I got in touch with Amazon Customer Service and the very patient rep was able to get a new mattress to me by Monday, and pick up the first one for no charge return. The mattress magic act was complete an hour before our guests arrived! Thanks, Amazon!!

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 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..

For what we paid for this mattress it's a steal of a price. It's extremely comfortable but not hot like many memory foam mattresses. It's soft on top yet firm when you lay on it, giving a little conforming around the hips and shoulders. We've only had the mattress for a week so I can't mention its durability but when sitting on the edges it seems to hold it well. After the one week my body does feel more rested. It's a great thickness as well and because of that we don't need a box spring to bring it up compared to a 6 or 8 inch mattress. The only issue was the smell out of the box during the first 48 hours was very strong but this would seem normal considering it's been sealed air tight into plastic, boxed up, and shipped. After 48 hours the smell is no longer in the room and did not let off a smell during sleeping. I would highly recommend.

I have used this twin XL mattress on an adjustable bed for three year and three months. The first two years it was very comfortable. However, in the last year it gradually begin to slump in the middle despite being on an adjustable bed 100% supported with a steel and 3/4" inch plywood bottom support. I finally had to give it up because of the pain it caused. To verify this I had my wife sleep on it. After one night she too was hurting and would not continue to test it. The warranty is a joke. Yes it meet their 1" sag requirement to be replaced under warranty. But it required shipping it back to the manufacturer. Once these or unpacked you cannot get the genie back in the bottle. The cost to ship (freight only) is too costly just to take a chance they will cover it.
