The GhostBed sleeps cooler than the Nectar thanks to its aerated latex layer. The Nectar has much better motion isolation than the GhostBed.

Both are all-foam mattresses but differ in construction and the type of foam. GhostBed uses a combination of latex foam and memory foam, which gives it a plush yet responsive feel. Nectar uses memory foam only, giving it a softer and less responsive feel. There is also a big difference in warranties and trial periods.

We think the Nectar, a 4-layer foam mattress made in China, is the best choice if you sleep on your side or stomach or prefer a softer memory foam feel. Leesa (made in the US) is the better choice if you prefer a firmer mattress or sleep on your back or stomach.

Ghostbed has a balanced feel with a blend of memory foam and poly foam (and even coils with the Ghostbed Flex). It has a fast response time, low motion transfer, and better edge support than Nectar. Ghostbed outscored Nectar with all 3 mattresses. Ghostbed is especially better with respect to edge support & sex.
