Who should buy which
Someone replacing a bed that already lives head-up in one fixed spot, who wants the massage in the mattress instead of in a base, and who has outlet capacity within five feet for the two control boxes a Queen ships with.
You want the massage hardware covered as long as the mattress: the control box, remote and air tubes carry 2 years against the mattress's 25, and the 7-Year Extended Warranty named in GhostBed's own warranty for this model does not exist in GhostBed's own product list. Buyers in Alaska and Hawaii should also stop here, at $600 in freight with no trial and no returns.
A couple in the 48 contiguous states outside California who want a different firmness on each side with the lumbar zone set separately, can live with wired controls that adjust one side at a time.
Delivery is curbside with a signature required, a qualifying return costs $99 and an early one $199, adjustable bases cannot be returned at all, the 20-year warranty is a prorated trade-in credit that drops to 50 percent after year 2, financing requires a phone order, and the brand contradicts itself on air core material, assembly and delivery timing.
