The GhostBed Natural is the brand’s eco-friendly latex hybrid, built for sleepers who want natural materials and a cool night without giving up support. It pairs two types of latex with 8-inch individually wrapped coils, a wool layer that wicks moisture, and a breathable cotton cover, all at a medium firmness that works across sleeping positions. If you care about what your mattress is made of and you sleep warm, this is the GhostBed model to look at first.

Who is the GhostBed Natural for?
The GhostBed Natural suits sleepers who prioritize natural, eco-conscious materials and want a mattress that sleeps cool. It suits combination sleepers, because the medium firmness and 5 layers of targeted comfort are designed for all sleeping styles. It suits people who sit on the edge of the bed often, since two rows of reinforced coils along the perimeter make it easier to sit comfortably without slipping off. It also suits shoppers who want a long warranty and a real trial period before committing.
It is less suited to shoppers on a tight budget, since the queen price sits well above entry-level hybrids. It is also a single firmness option, so if you already know you want a very soft or very firm feel, you will need to look elsewhere in the GhostBed lineup or at a brand that offers multiple comfort levels.
What does the GhostBed Natural specification sheet say?
Here are the published figures for the GhostBed Natural, including every size, its dimensions, weight and price. The mattress stands 12 inches tall across all sizes, and product dimensions allow for a plus or minus 1 inch manufacturing tolerance.
| Size | Price | Dimensions | Weight |
|---|---|---|---|
| Twin | $2,165 | 39″ x 75″ x 12″ | 58 lbs |
| Twin XL | $2,265 | 38″ x 80″ x 12″ | 62 lbs |
| Full | $2,465 | 54″ x 75″ x 12″ | 78 lbs |
| Queen | $2,565 | 60″ x 80″ x 12″ | 89 lbs |
| King | $2,965 | 76″ x 80″ x 12″ | 112 lbs |
| Cal King | $3,025 | 72″ x 84″ x 12″ | 112 lbs |
| Split King | $4,530 | 76″ x 80″ x 12″ | 124 lbs |
The queen size is the reference point most shoppers compare, and at $2,565 the GhostBed Natural sits between the organic latex competitors GhostBed lists on its own comparison page. Prices and sizing are published by the brand, and free shipping applies to orders in the contiguous US.
How is the GhostBed Natural built, layer by layer?
The GhostBed Natural is described as 5 layers of hybrid comfort. The comfort system uses two types of latex for a contouring and springy feel, combined with the support of coils. The support core is built around individually wrapped 8-inch coils, which create a weightless feeling with minimal motion transfer. The base layer is 1 inch of Dunlop latex, which the brand positions as providing ideal support, durability and longevity.
Around the comfort layers, natural wool works to wick moisture and disperse body heat, keeping you cool in the summer and warm in the winter. The cover is breathable cotton. The overall feel is described as medium firmness with a contouring and springy character, rather than a deep sink or a hard surface.
The coil unit carries two specific details worth knowing. First, the coils around the perimeter are reinforced with the brand’s Spirited Edge support, which makes it easier to sit comfortably on the edge without slipping off. Second, the coils are individually wrapped, which is what gives the mattress its minimal motion transfer character.
How does the medium firmness translate into feel?
Medium firmness is the only firmness the GhostBed Natural offers, and it is aimed at all sleeping styles. Side sleepers get contouring from the latex layers, back sleepers get the springy push-back of latex over coils, and stomach sleepers get the support of a reinforced coil base rather than a plush foam cradle. The brand describes the feel as contouring and springy, combined with the support of coils, which means you sit on top of the materials rather than sinking deep into them.
Because latex is naturally responsive, the mattress should feel easy to change positions on. The 8-inch coil unit adds the weightless feeling the brand markets, and the Dunlop latex base underneath keeps the surface from bottoming out. If you have slept on foam hybrids before, the main difference you will notice is that latex pushes back rather than conforming slowly.
How does the GhostBed Natural handle temperature?
Cooling is one of the four headline features of the GhostBed Natural, and the brand builds it from four materials at once. The naturally cooling latex core, airflow-enhancing coils, heat-dispersing natural wool and breathable cotton cover all work toward the same goal. Wool in particular is described as wicking moisture and dispersing body heat, which matters for sleepers who wake up warm rather than those who simply feel warm when falling asleep.
The coil layer is part of that cooling story as well, since open space between wrapped coils lets air move through the mattress instead of trapping it. If you sleep hot and you also want natural materials, this is the overlap the GhostBed Natural is designed for.

What do the trial, warranty and delivery terms look like?
The GhostBed Natural comes with a 101-Night Sleep Trial, which the brand describes as time to lounge, nap and snooze on the mattress for three plus months. It is backed by a 25-Year Warranty, and the brand notes more than 20 years in the industry behind it. Shipping is free, and the brand lists hassle-free returns and flexible payment options among its buying benefits. White glove setup is available as an option rather than included by default.
The mattress itself is unboxed in four steps, and GhostBed publishes a setup video for the process. Free shipping and mattress returns apply to orders in the contiguous US only.
How does the GhostBed Natural compare on paper?
GhostBed publishes a direct comparison of the Natural against three competitor mattresses. The figures below are the brand’s own, with the note that competitor prices may not reflect current promotions.
| Model | Queen price | Sleep trial |
|---|---|---|
| GhostBed Natural | $2,565 | 101-Night |
| Birch Natural Mattress | $1,699 | 100-Night |
| Avocado Latex Mattress | $3,499 | 1-Year |
| PlushBed Organic Latex Mattress | $3,799 | 100-Night |
On this published table, the GhostBed Natural is priced below the Avocado and PlushBed organic latex options and above the Birch Natural. The trial length is in the same range as the 100-night offers from Birch and PlushBed. The GhostBed Natural also carries the 25-year warranty listed in the same comparison, alongside its certified organic and eco-friendly materials claim and two types of latex.
Who should NOT buy the GhostBed Natural?
Skip the GhostBed Natural if you need a specific firmness rather than a medium one. This is a single-feel mattress, and sleepers who know they want a plush, body-hugging surface or an extra-firm surface will be better served by a brand that sells multiple comfort levels in one model. Skip it if you want a very long trial, since the 101 nights here is shorter than the one-year trial Avocado lists in GhostBed’s own comparison.
Skip it also if you want a foam-only feel. The Natural is a latex and coil hybrid by design, and the springy push-back of latex over an 8-inch coil unit is a different sensation from memory foam. Finally, check availability before you plan around a delivery date, since sizes on the product page can show as sold out.
How does the GhostBed Natural compare with the Saatva Classic?
The Saatva Classic is the natural alternative for a shopper who likes the idea of a supportive hybrid but wants a choice of comfort levels. Where the GhostBed Natural offers one medium feel, the Saatva Classic comes in Plush Soft, Luxury Firm and Firm, so a couple with different preferences can pick the same model in the feel that suits each of them. The Saatva Classic also carries a 365-night home trial and a lifetime warranty, both longer than the GhostBed Natural’s 101 nights and 25 years.
The GhostBed Natural keeps the edge on natural materials, with its wool, cotton cover and two types of latex, and on its published eco-certification story. The Saatva Classic counters with a 3-inch Euro pillow top, patented Lumbar Zone technology for spinal alignment, and free white-glove delivery that includes removing your old mattress. For a fuller look at how these two brands stack up, see our Saatva vs GhostBed comparison. If you are still weighing GhostBed models, our GhostBed Classic review covers the brand’s core foam model.
Verdict: The GhostBed Natural is the right GhostBed for the sleeper who wants natural latex, wool and cotton, a medium feel that works for every position, and a cooling build that works from four materials at once. It is not the right pick for a strict budget shopper, a firmness specialist, or someone who wants the longest trial in the category. At $2,565 for a queen with a 101-night trial and a 25-year warranty, it earns its place as the eco option in the GhostBed lineup, and it is worth checking the current price before you decide.
Our verdict
Buy the GhostBed Natural if natural materials and a cool medium feel are your priorities. Choose the Saatva Classic if you want three firmness options, a 365-night trial and a lifetime warranty.

Frequently asked questions
Is the GhostBed Natural a good choice for hot sleepers?
Cooling is one of the four headline features of the GhostBed Natural, and the brand builds it from four materials at once: a naturally cooling latex core, airflow-enhancing coils, heat-dispersing natural wool and a breathable cotton cover. Wool wicks moisture and disperses body heat, while the space between the individually wrapped coils lets air move through the mattress. If you sleep warm and you also want natural materials, this is the overlap the GhostBed Natural is designed for.
What firmness does the GhostBed Natural come in?
The GhostBed Natural comes in one firmness, described as medium, and the brand positions it as suitable for all sleeping styles. The feel is described as contouring and springy, combined with the support of coils, which means you sit on top of the latex rather than sinking deep into it. If you already know you want a very soft or very firm surface, this single-feel model will not give you that choice.
How thick is the GhostBed Natural and will it fit my sheets?
Every size of the GhostBed Natural stands 12 inches tall, with a plus or minus 1 inch manufacturing tolerance on the published dimensions. Standard deep-pocket sheets designed for 12-inch mattresses will fit, and the queen size measures 60 by 80 inches at 89 lbs. The twin is the lightest at 58 lbs, while the split king is the heaviest at 124 lbs.
Does the GhostBed Natural need a specific base?
The product page lists compatibility with a boxspring, foundation, slatted frame or adjustable base. GhostBed sells its own options alongside the mattress, including the GhostBed All-in-One Foundation and two adjustable bases, so you can match the base to how you use the bed. The mattress is also unboxed in four steps, with a setup video published by the brand.
What certifications does the GhostBed Natural carry?
The brand highlights Control Union Certified supply chain accountability, noting that Control Union Certifications has held companies accountable for managing safe and sustainable supply chains for the past 10 years. The comparison table on the product page also lists certified organic and eco-friendly materials as a feature of the GhostBed Natural. The brand frames the mattress as its eco-friendly entry, built to the same quality and comfort standards customers have enjoyed for more than 20 years.
