According to my email, it was the Luxe 13” memory foam mattress with adjustable base. It is not crazy plush. It just is definitely not firm. We hate firm mattresses.
Go medium-firm hybrid with coils and a breathable or PCM cover; it keeps you on top and lets heat escape. I tried the Aurora Luxe in Medium with GlacioTex - cool to the touch for the first 20-30 minutes, then stayed comfortably neutral the rest of the night, way better than my old foam stack. If you go Aurora, skip thick toppers and bulky protectors, and lean Medium over Plush to avoid sink heat; keep the return window handy. Also worth a look: Helix Midnight Luxe with the GlacioTex cover, Bear Elite Hybrid, or a latex hybrid like Saatva if you want more bounce and airflow. I have used Brooklyn Bedding’s Aurora and Helix Midnight Luxe for that instant cool feel, but GhostBed Luxe stayed the most consistently cool for me on desert nights without the slow sticky sink. Practical stuff: aim for 800+ coils in queen, use a slatted base with 2-3 inch gaps, thin Tencel protector, and rotate quarterly. Bottom line: pick a medium-firm hybrid with real airflow and a thin cool cover, not a thick foam stack.
Bought the Ghostbed Luxe and was quite disappointed at first. But this was truly a mattress that needed to be broken in. Now I have no more sore back or pressure points.
Wife also did not like it - I asked her the other day if she wanted to go mattress shopping. Her response? She’s also happy with how it’s broken in.
Took a solid four months, but very happy with it now. Price was also good for a split king motion bed through Costco.
