Helix Sleep Dawn Mattress Review

In this article, we will review Helix Dawn in detail. The review below highlights the key attributes, features, and pros/cons of the mattress.

  • Material: The Helix Dawn comes with a soft knitted polyester cover, Helix Dynamic Foam top layer, high-grade polyfoam transition layer, and a pocketed coil support core on a high-density polyfoam base. Like the standard Dawn, the Luxe is constructed of multiple foam layers, pocketed coils, and a zoned body shape layer.

Pros & Cons

Helix Dawn is recommended for sleepers, who

  • Weigh below 230 pounds
  • Prefer sleeping on their back or stomach
  • Our heavyweight
  • Want pressure point relief
  • Prefer to sleep on a firmer mattress

Not so ideal for sleepers, who

  • Have light or average weight
  • Enjoy soft mattress
  • Want memory foam feel
  • Strictly sleep on their back

Firmness

Firmness is a subjective matter. To some, a particular mattress may feel soft, while it may feel firm to others. Whether a mattress is soft, plush, or firm is purely defined based on personal preferences, choices, and body type. Whether a mattress feels firm or soft, it should support body weight, promote healthy spinal alignment, and ensure comfortable and restful sleeping.

The Helix Dawn is the firmest model that Helix Sleep offers. The firmness lies in the range of 7.5 to 9.5 on a scale of 10. The mattress is 12 inches tall and comes in 4 layers. It provides strong support for back and stomach sleepers. The Dawn Luxe is 14 inches tall and has 6 layers. The mattress has the same firmness as its standard version, but the quilted pillow top gives more initial pressure relief.

The firmness of the mattress makes it an excellent choice for strict stomach sleepers as it helps the hips from sinking too deep into the mattress, thus keeping them aligned with the shoulders. The firmness is supportive of spine alignment during sleep. Those who prefer extra firm feel can opt for the Helix Dawn, and those who want additional pressure relief can go for Dawn Luxe.

Material & Construction

The Helix Dawn is a hybrid mattress that uses quality materials like other Helix models. The materials include Helix’s Dynamic foam, premium polyfoam, and up to 950 individual coils. The breathable mattress cover is soft to touch and stretches slightly. It is designed to allow maximum airflow to keep the person and the mattress cool throughout the night. The cover prevents sweaty nights.

The Luxe, the upgraded version, includes high-quality features like a premium pillow top, a Tencel cover, zoned lumbar support, and other added features. The cover of Dawn Luxe is super soft and is a quilted premium pillow top made up of high-density polyurethane foam. It comes in two options: an Ultra-breathable TENCEL cover, designed for maximum airflow, or a GlacioTex Cooling cover made with fibers with a high thermal conductivity that wicks heat away from the body, giving a comfortable sleep.

The different layers in the mattress are detailed below:

  • Layer 1: The first layer is the Helix Dynamic Foam layer. It is designed to provide the people with an experience of a mattress that is highly responsive in feel and offers supportive contouring of latex as well as; they get to enjoy the pressure relief of foam.
  • Layer 2: This layer is the high-grade polyfoam transition layer. The sturdy and firm polyurethane foam is placed to stop the body from sinking in and helps in delivering exceptional spinal support and firmness.
  • Layer 3: This layer consists of individually-encased coils to provide targeted support and give comfort. Special coils are used on the edges of the mattress perimeter for excellent edge support. The standard Dawn has up to 950 individually wrapped 8 inches steel coil, whereas in the Luxe, there are up to 1500 individually wrapped 8 inches steel coils. The coils in Luxe provide zoned lumbar support that helps to cradle the body provide proper spine alignment and back pressure relief.
  • Layer 4: The base layer is the DuraDense Foam layer. It is a high-density polyfoam that helps stabilize the mattress, aids in motion isolation, and adds durability to the mattress.

Mattress Review and Rating

(4.08/5)

Repositioning

(4.00/5)

Repositioning means that a person can switch positions during sleep easily. Again, those who toss and turn pay attention to mattress responsiveness. It measures how quickly one can become comfortable after changing positions and how one can make an easy move. The spring coils layers of Helix Dawn make the mattress very responsive, thus allowing moving around the mattress and changing positions easy. The mattress does not comprise memory foam, so will never feel stuck when trying to switch positions. The individually wrapped coils (up to 950 in standard Dawn and up to 1500 in Dawn Luxe) in the core and the latex texture of the comfort layer give the mattress its bounciness.

Comfort, Back Support, Pressure Relief

(4.00/5)

With the variety of mattresses available in the market, it isn’t easy to choose the right one. The right mattress can help get a good night’s sleep, which leads to the feeling of rest and refreshment upon waking up. Pain relief is another important feature that people look for while buying a mattress. Back pain can be relieved only when the spine is relaxed. A mattress with good support and a cradle to the spine is often a good choice for sleepers who suffer from back pain.

The hybrid Helix Dawn mattress gives a responsive, firm, and supportive feel. The mattress evenly distributes the body weight to minimize the pressure from the lower back for back sleepers. However, side sleepers will experience a buildup of pressure around their hips and shoulders, so they can check for another mattress in the Helix lineup. Though the Dawn is a substantial mattress, the combination of thick foam layers and pocketed coils give the right cushioning for firm mattress lovers.

The Helix Dawn Luxe features many design elements that would minimize its chances of heat-trapping: a breathable cover, thin layers of foam, and a supportive layer of coils, which allows for plenty of airflow throughout the mattress. Due to firm polyfoam layers, users might feel added pressure while lying on the mattress.

The suitability of the mattress for different sleeping positions is detailed below:

  • Back sleepers: Average-weight and heavyweight back sleepers will like the supportive feel of Helix Dawn and will not feel any sagging at the hips or the shoulders. But those suffering from low back pain may feel the mattress too firm as it does not provide good pressure relief and contouring. The Luxe owing to its zoned support technology offers the right amount of firmness for most back sleepers. Heavyweight sleepers who sleep on their back and weigh around 230 pounds could get benefits for spinal support on the Helix Dawn Luxe. The mattress is best suited for those who like the firm feeling of their bed.
  • Side sleepers: Both the models from Helix Dawn will feel the mattress too firm and will experience pressure at the joints of hips and shoulders, thus making the mattress unsuitable for side sleepers. However, average-weight side sleepers, in all probability, find this mattress comfortable enough if they prefer a firm feel.
  • Stomach sleepers: Strict stomach sleepers preferring firm and supportive mattresses will find the Helix Dawn a good choice. They will not experience any sinkage under the hips or pelvis area. For average-weighing stomach sleepers, it should come out to be a supportive mattress and offers a friendly match that promotes spine alignment. Heavy-weighted stomach sleepers who weigh around 230 pounds should enjoy solid support. The mattress could be a perfect match for lightweight stomach sleepers, who will get to enjoy plenty of spine support.
  • Heavy sleepers: The Helix Dawn is a bit soft for back sleepers weighing over 250 pounds and too firm for side sleepers to sleep comfortably. For heavyweight stomach sleepers, the mattress is a good choice as they will feel the firm support needed to keep their hips and shoulders perfectly aligned.

Cooling & Temperature Control

(4.00/5)

The most critical condition determining the quality and duration of the body’s recovery during sleep is an adequate decrease in the core body temperature. Like all other Helix Sleep mattresses, the Helix Dawn and Dawn Luxe also feature temperature regulation. The soft knitted breathable cover in the standard Dawn and the ultra-breathable TENCEL cover in the Luxe version make the mattress super cool. The pocketed coiled layers allow air to circulate throughout the mattress, thus preventing heat buildup.

Motion Isolation and Sharing a Bed

(3.75/5)

The mattress has foam layers and many individually wrapped coils which work in sync so that this mattress can handle motion transfer. Since it is a bouncy mattress, it won’t minimize all movement transfer happening across the surface if one has a partner to share his bed with, a point worth considering.

Edge Support

(4.50/5)

The Helix Dawn is designed to offer comfortable edge support. The robust coil layer, high-density foam base, and latex comfort layer reinforce the perimeter and prevent the mattress from sinking. Thus, the presence of supportive coils helps the user feel secure while sitting and lying near the edge of the mattress.

Recommendation based on sleeping style

Good sleep is crucial to maintain a healthy lifestyle, but according to the National Institute of Health (NIH), about 7 – 19% of adults in the United States do not get enough sleep. The brand Helix is linked with the concept of sleep DNA, which the company mentions on its website. Each of us has a different sleep DNA or specific needs for comfort and support thus it becomes difficult for many people to find what they need when choosing between just one or two mattresses. Though Helix does not make a different mattress for every person, they offer a wide range of options that meet most sleepers’ needs. Helix Dawn is a good choice for every sleeping position.

Below is a detailed description of how the Helix Dawn is a good fit for different sleep positions.

  • Side Sleepers: Heavyweight side sleepers, in all probability, will find this mattress too firm to sleep comfortably on their side. The firmness of the mattress may aid in increasing the pressure on the joints of the hips and shoulders.
  • Back Sleepers: Average-weighing back and side sleepers will likely find that this mattress might be too firm and probably doesn’t offer enough pressure relief while sleeping in these positions. Heavyweight sleepers who sleep on their back and weigh around 230 pounds could get benefits for healthy spinal support on the Helix Dawn, while people who weigh much higher than that might want to consider buying another mattress. Lightweight back and side sleepers will likely experience that this mattress feels too firm.
  •  Stomach Sleepers: The firm feel of Helix Dawn makes it a fantastic fit for stomach sleepers, who will find that their hips and spine area remain aligned whenever sleeping. Heavyweight stomach sleepers who may weigh less than 300 pounds will get enough spinal support, while those weighing more than 300 pounds will probably have to look for other options. The firm feel offered by this mattress is great for lightweight stomach sleepers, who will get to enjoy plenty of support.
  • Combination Sleepers-Those who alternate between various positions: Combination sleepers tend to change positions while sleeping. Average and heavyweight combination sleepers will find the mattress very comfortable and suited. The bounce of the mattress is very appealing to most combination sleepers.

Helix Sleep Dusk Mattress Review


Product Description

The Helix Sleep Dusk is another medium category mattress by Helix that combines all the features of Midnight with newer features. It provides for body contouring and support for back and stomach sleepers and is available in two sizes – Standard and Luxe. The Helix Dusk Luxe is a universally appealing mattress as it offers relief for back and stomach sleepers and balanced lumbar support for the entire body. The Luxe variant is 2 inches thicker and is topped with an ultra-breathable Tencel cover. The use of Helix Dynamic Foam creates luxury support and loft in the mattress.

The Helix Dusk is CertiPUR-US certified, implying that no harmful chemicals are used in the make. Two free dream pillows come with each mattress purchase.

In this article, we will review Helix Dusk in detail. The review below highlights the key attributes, features, and pros/cons of the mattress.

  • Material: The Helix Dusk comes with a polyester cover, the Helix Dynamic Foam comfort layer, and a pocketed coil support core on a high-density polyfoam base. In Luxe, the plush polyester ultra-cool premium pillow top is treated with phase technology that supports greater temperature regulation.
  • Sizes: Both Helix Dusk and Dusk Luxe are available in all regular sizes: Twin, Twin XL, Full, Queen, King, and California King
  • Shipping & Delivery: Free shipping and delivery offered.
  • Trial & Return: 100 nights trial period, a full refund, and pick up
  • Warranty: Helix Dusk offers a 10-year warranty, while the Luxe provides 15 years warranty.

Pros & Cons

Helix Dusk is recommended for sleepers, who

  • Prefer sleeping on their back or stomach
  • Want contouring feel, without being stuck in the bed
  • Want affordable bed
  • Want long-lasting mattress
  • Share their beds with their partners

Not so ideal for sleepers, who

  • Our heavyweight stomach sleepers
  • Prefer sleeping on their sides
  • Want good pressure relief
  • Prefer a memory foam feel

Firmness

Firmness is a subjective matter. To some, a particular mattress may feel soft, while it may feel firm to others. Whether a mattress is soft, plush, or firm is purely defined based on personal preferences, choices, and body type. Whether a mattress feels firm or soft, it should support body weight, promote healthy spinal alignment, and ensure comfortable and restful sleeping.

Helix Dusk is a medium-firm mattress with firmness in the range of 3.5 – 7.5 on a scale of 10. Lightweight and average-weight stomach sleepers will feel comfortable in this firmness level. The firmness is enough to prevent the hips from sinking too deep into the mattress. Regardless of body type, the firmness of this mattress supports the hips and shoulders of back sleepers. However, lightweight side sleepers may find it to be a bit firm, and heavyweight stomach sleepers will not like the firmness of this mattress. The Dusk Luxe is more supportive and provides the right balance for most of the back and stomach sleepers. The Luxe version has four-sided full perimeter edge support that gives the mattress structural stability.

Material & Construction

The Helix Dusk is a hybrid mattress that is 12 inches tall and has 4 layers. It uses quality materials like other Helix models. The materials include a proprietary blend of foams, like Helix Dynamic foam and Memory Plus foams, which provide a unique blend of contour and responsiveness. Pocketed coils are used for support and cut down on motion transfer. The breathable mattress cover is soft to touch and stretches slightly. It is designed to allow maximum airflow to keep the person and the mattress cool throughout the night. The cover prevents sweaty nights.

The Luxe, the upgraded version, is 14 inches tall and comes in 6 layers. It includes high-quality features like a premium pillow top, a Tencel cover, zoned lumbar support, and other added features. The cover of Dusk Luxe is excessively soft and cooling. It comes in two options: an ultra-breathable TENCEL cover, designed for maximum airflow, or a GlacioTex Cooling cover made with fibers with a high thermal conductivity that wicks heat away from the body, giving a comfortable sleep.

The different layers in the mattress are detailed below:

  • Layer 1: This is the first comfort layer, which is designed to give the benefits of latex and foam, delivering responsiveness, contouring, and ample cushioning to the user.
  • Layer 2: The proprietary memory foam of Helix makes for the transition layer with a medium feel, offering fantastic contouring, support, and pressure relief to the user.
  • Layer 3: The support layer comprises hundreds of individually encased coils, which provide extra support and cushion to the body. In Helix Dusk, there are 950 individually wrapped 8 inches steel coil, whereas in the Dusk Luxe, there are up to 1500 individually wrapped 8 inches steel coils, thus making the Luxe firmer than the normal. The coils in Luxe provide zoned lumbar support that helps to cradle the body and provide proper spine alignment.
  • Layer 4: The sturdy base layer is high-density polyfoam for enhanced durability and motion isolation.

Repositioning

(4.00/5)

Repositioning means that a person can switch positions during sleep easily. Again, those who toss and turn pay attention to mattress responsiveness. It measures how quickly one can become comfortable after changing positions and how one can make an easy move. The Helix Dusk and Luxe, owing to the use of dynamic foam in the upper layers and coils in the support layer, gives a firm and bouncy feel, which leads to easy movement across the bed,

Comfort, Back Support, Pressure Relief

(4.00/5)

With the variety of mattresses available in the market, it isn’t easy to choose the right one. The right mattress can help get a good night’s sleep, which leads to the feeling of rest and refreshment upon waking up. Pain relief is another important feature that people look for while buying a mattress. Back pain can be relieved only when the spine is relaxed. A mattress with good support and a cradle to the spine is often a good choice for sleepers who suffer from back pain.

The hybrid Helix Dusk is one of the frontline mattresses that give good support to the spine. It offers a firm and bouncy feel. This is due to the dynamic and responsive foam it has in the top layer and the presence of bouncy coils in the bed’s support layer. The zoned support in the Luxe versions offers enhanced middle-spine support and pressure relief for hips and shoulders.

The suitability of the mattress for different sleeping positions is detailed below:

  • Back sleepers: The medium-firm feel of the Helix Dusk makes the mattress an excellent choice for back sleepers. It supports the shoulders, hips, back, legs and keeps the spine perfectly aligned. Lightweight back sleepers may feel the mattress slightly firm, but average-weight and heavyweight back sleepers feel very comfortable. People weighing 300 pounds, however, should go for another firm mattress.
  • Side sleepers: Side sleepers require a certain level of softness to feel comfortable in their beds. Side sleepers over 130 pounds will feel the mattress too firm as they will not get the required pressure relief for their hips and shoulders. Softer versions of Helix such as Sunset, Moonlight, or Midnight can be a good choice for side sleepers.
  • Stomach sleepers: Extra support is needed for stomach sleepers in their hip, shoulder, and neck area. As stomach sleepers sleep with their heads turned on one side, they are prone to feel the sinking of their hips into the mattress. They also feel discomfort because of the spine being not appropriately aligned. The Helix Dusk will help lightweight and average-weight stomach sleepers stay comfortable, but heavyweight stomach sleepers might feel sinkage in the hips, thus wanting a firmer mattress. The Luxe can be a fit for some heavyweight stomach sleepers.
  • Heavy sleepers: Larger people, like plus-sized individuals, have their own needs when it comes to choosing their beds which is unique. The zoned support technology of the Dusk Luxe offers a lot of support around the hips, thus making it to be a good choice for heavy back sleepers. Heavy side sleepers would also like the Luxe for its point pressure relief support and healthy spine alignment.

Cooling & Temperature Control

(4.00/5)

The most critical condition determining the quality and duration of the body’s recovery during sleep is an adequate decrease in the core body temperature. The Helix Dusk offers a cool sleep, as it has a breathable cover and the presence of coils that allow for plenty of airflow through the mattress so that heat doesn’t get trapped. Added premium quilted top cover in the Luxe version gives extra comfort. The cover of Luxe is not only super soft but is cooling and naturally breathable, which promotes optimal airflow.

Motion Isolation and Sharing a Bed

(3.75/5)

Because Helix Dusk is a bouncy mattress, it does okay but is not excellent in motion transfer. Sleepers will tend to feel some bounce on the top of the mattress, which implies that the partners might feel movements during the night. Couples sharing beds need to be aware of this as it might disturb partners while sleeping. Those wanting good motion isolation should go for memory foam top-up models. The mattress may be a bit noisy when there is robust movement; otherwise, it is a quiet mattress. The bed is great for sex due to its responsive composition and bounce.

Edge Support

(4.50/5)

The Helix Dusk offers good edge support since it primarily comprises supportive coils. The individually wrapped coil layers in standard Dusk (up to 950 coils) and Luxe (up to 1500 coils) helps the edges of the mattress to hold up distinctively, thus giving a secure feeling while sitting and lying down near the edges of the mattress. Heavy sleepers can also believe that this Helix model will provide them with the necessary support while sitting or lying on edge. Helix beds feature reinforced perimeter coils (standard Dusk is two sides supported, while the Luxe is supported along all four sides), enhancing edge support and making the surface maximum usable while sharing beds with others.

A night of good sleep is essential to maintaining a healthy lifestyle, but according to the National Institute of Health (NIH), about 7 – 19% of adults in the United States do not get enough sleep. The brand Helix is linked with the concept of sleep DNA, which the company mentions on its website.

Though Helix does not make a different mattress for every person, they offer a wide range of options that meet most sleepers’ needs. Helix Midnight is a good choice for every sleeping position.

Below is a detailed description of how the Helix Dusk is an excellent fit for different sleep positions.

  • Side Sleepers: Side sleepers who weigh light might get enough pressure relief in this position, but if a side sleeper weighs more than 130 pounds, they will probably find this bed too firm. Heavyweight side sleepers will probably find this mattress too firm and may experience pressure around their shoulders and hips. Lightweight side sleepers who don’t require luxurious comfort or body contouring could have a comfortable stay in this position.
  • Back Sleepers: The Helix Dusk offers excellent support for average-weight back sleepers, who will enjoy plenty of spinal support and pressure relief in this position. It should be supportive for a majority of heavyweight back sleepers. However, people who weigh more than 300 pounds might have to opt for a firmer mattress. Lightweight back sleepers will enjoy comfortable spinal support on the mattress.
  •  Stomach Sleepers: Due to the supportive structure of the mattress, it implies that the lightweight stomach sleepers will remain well-supported. Though it’s relatively firm, the Helix Dusk mattress might not be supportive enough for heavyweight stomach sleepers, who might experience discomfort as their hips could bow into the mattress and the spine could be tugged out of alignment. Due to the firm nature of this mattress, it can be a preference for many average-weight stomach sleepers.
  • Combination Sleepers-Those who alternate between various positions: Combination sleepers tend to change positions while sleeping. They sleep well on a mattress that has is bouncy and has good responsiveness. The Helix Dusk being highly responsive, quickly adjusts to changing positions during sleeping. For light and average weight combo sleepers’ movement on the Dusk and the Luxe model is relatively easy, thus making the mattress a good choice for these groups. However, heavyweight combination sleepers may not be comfortable adjusting to different sleeping positions.

Helix Sleep Midnight Mattress Review

The Helix Midnight is the most popular Helix mattress, belonging to the medium feel category. It has a balanced feel at the top, with a bit of groove at the base. Like the Sunset variant, it offers pressure point relief and supports side sleepers. It comes in two variants – Normal and Luxe, the latter featuring Helixs’ advanced sleep technology. The Luxe variant also comes with a Gel Visco layer for pressure relief in addition to the Memory Plus Foam.

The Helix Midnight is 12 inches thick and is designed primarily for side sleepers. The Luxe version is 14 inches thick and is slightly firmer than the standard model. The foams are tested to meet CertiPUR-US rigorous emissions, content, performance, and durability standards.

In this article, we will review Helix Midnight in detail. The review below highlights the key attributes, features, and pros/cons of the mattress.

  • Material: The Helix Midnight uses memory foam and dynamic foam in different densities for its construction, with individual, pocketed coils and a high-density base layer. A breathable cooling cover allows optimal airflow for a great night’s sleep. The Midnight Luxe adds a viscous gel layer and a premium quilted top.

Pros & Cons

Helix Moonlight is recommended for sleepers, who

  • Prefer sleeping on their sides
  • Are fond of memory foam
  • Prefer medium firmness
  • Wants a cooling bed to sleep on

Not so ideal for sleepers, who

  • Our heavyweight stomach sleepers
  • Want firm feel
  • Weigh above 250 pounds

Firmness is a subjective matter. To some, a particular mattress may feel soft, while it may feel firm to others. Whether a mattress is soft, plush, or firm is purely defined based on personal preferences, choices, and body type. Whether a mattress feels firm or soft, it should support body weight, promote healthy spinal alignment, and ensure comfortable and restful sleeping.

The Helix Midnight is a medium-firm mattress with firmness in the range of 3.5-7.5 on the firmness scale of 10. The mattress is bouncy, supportive, and does not put much pressure on the joints. The hybrid construction makes it easy to roll around, thus making changing positions easy at night. The Luxe version additionally features an extra pillow top layer and zoned support. The zoned support layers make the sleepers feel soft at the shoulders for targeted pressure relief but firm near the hips to promote proper spine alignment. The Luxe being firmer than the standard Midnight is excellent for those suffering from back pain.

The Helix Midnight is a bed in a box hybrid mattress which is 12 inches thick and has 4 layers. The mattress comprises foam layers that are carefully selected to match the sleeping needs and preferences. The breathable mattress cover is soft to touch and stretches slightly. It is designed to allow maximum airflow to keep the person and the mattress cool throughout the night. The cover helps to prevent sweaty nights.

The Luxe version is 14 inches thick and comes in 6 layers. It also features enhanced comfort layers that provide pressure relief and targeted ergonomic support. The zoned lumbar support in Luxe helps to maintain spine alignment and provides back pressure relief. The cover of Midnight Luxe is excessively soft and cooling. It comes in two options: an ultra-breathable TENCEL cover, designed for maximum airflow, or a GlacioTex Cooling cover made with fibers with a high thermal conductivity that wicks heat away from the body, giving a comfortable sleep. Additionally, the Luxe also provides a premium quilted pillow top for extra comfort and cushioning.

The different layers in the mattress are detailed below:

  • Layer 1: It is the topmost comfort layer made of memory foam; it provides pressure relief and gives the mattress its medium firmness. The Helix Luxe has an extra two-layered comfort layer. Beneath the first layer, which is memory foam akin to the regular Midnight, there is also a layer of gel visco foam that gives extra contouring and pressure relief.
  • Layer 2: The transition layer is the second layer in both versions of the Midnight mattress. This high-grade polyfoam layer separates the memory foam from the pocketed coils below and offers appropriate support and comfort as per the body type.
  • Layer 3: This layer comprises individually wrapped coils that help support the sleeper’s weight and limit motion transfer. In Helix Midnight, there are 950 individually wrapped 8 inches steel coils. In contrast, there are up to 1500 individually wrapped 8 inches steel coils in the Midnight Luxe, thus making the Luxe firmer than the normal. The coils in Luxe provide zoned lumbar support that helps to cradle the body and provide proper spine alignment.
  • Layer 4: The base layer is a thick foam layer of DuraDense foam that gives the mattress its durability and prevents it from sagging.

Repositioning

(4.00/5)

Repositioning means that a person can switch positions during sleep easily. Again, those who toss and turn pay attention to mattress responsiveness. It measures how quickly one can become comfortable after changing positions and how one can make an easy move. The Midnight offers a layer of individually wrapped coils that help easily change positions without disturbing one’s partner.

Comfort, Back Support, Pressure Relief

(4.00/5)

With the variety of mattresses available in the market, it isn’t easy to choose the right one. The right mattress can help get a good night’s sleep, which leads to the feeling of rest and refreshment upon waking up. Pain relief is another important feature that people look for while buying a mattress. Helix Midnight is awesome in relieving pressure from the lower back knees and works well with sleepers suffering from shoulder pain. Both the models, standard and Luxe, provide good cushioning to the shoulders and give relief from stiffness and pain.

The Helix Midnight mattress offers an equitable foam feeling with a good response. The Memory Plus Foam on the top gives the mattress touch of a slow-moving feel, but, on the whole, it is bouncier, and it makes it easy for the sleeper to move around. It will also be great with pain relief, making this one of the best mattresses in the market for helping with fibromyalgia and arthritis. The Helix Midnight is a cool mattress because of the presence of a breathable cover and its hybrid design.

The suitability of the mattress for different sleeping positions is detailed below:

  • Back sleepers: Both the Helix Midnight and Luxe offer a balance of comfort and support for back sleepers. Both lightweight and average-weight back sleepers will find the mattress to relieve them of pressure while lying on their backs. For heavyweight sleepers, the Helix Plus is a good choice.
  • Side sleepers: The Helix Midnight and the Midnight Luxe are perfect for side sleepers of almost all body types. Each of the layers in the Midnight is designed to support the contours of your body, allowing shoulders and hips to settle down perfectly. The layers also help maintain proper lateral spine alignment, which leads to less pain and aches upon waking up in the morning.
  • Stomach sleepers: Stomach sleepers may find medium-firm mattresses too soft to support their lower back, but Helix Midnight provides the necessary support for lightweight and average-weight stomach sleepers. Both the groups will feel no lower back arching when they lay on their stomach. Heavyweight sleepers will find the normal Helix Midnight to be sinking around their hips; thus, they should look for firmer options such as the Midnight Luxe or other firm mattresses from Helix.
  • Heavy sleepers: Larger people, like plus-sized individuals, have their own needs when it comes to choosing their beds which is unique. The zoned support technology of the Midnight Luxe offers a lot of support around the hips, thus making it a good choice for heavy back sleepers. Heavy side sleepers would also like the Luxe for its point pressure relief support and healthy spine alignment.

Cooling & Temperature Control

(4.00/5)

The most critical condition that determines the quality and duration of the body’s recovery during sleep is an adequate decrease in the core body temperature. The temperature control of Helix Midnight and Midnight Luxe mattresses is extraordinary as sleepers won’t feel overheated at any point in time. The hybrid construction allows optimal airflow, and the breathable cover keeps the surface cool.

Motion Isolation and Sharing a Bed

(3.75/5)

The Helix Midnight mattress offers great motion transfer for a hybrid mattress. It has a layer of Memory Plus Foam on top, which helps prevent too much motion transfer between sides of the mattress; it can be a good choice for couples. The Luxe being firmer gives excellent motion isolation, making sharing a bed with one’s partner easier than most mattresses. The zoned support in Luxe helps to minimize the effect of movement felt by a partner when the other partner makes a move.

Edge Support

(4.50/5)

The Helix Midnight comes with robust edge support; the user feels secure while sitting and lying near the edge of the mattress. The two-sided lengthwise edge support in the regular Midnight provides excellent support for structural reinforcement, while in Luxe entire perimeter four-sided edge support gives complete structural ability. Thus, the strong edge support of the mattress makes it good for sleepers to move onto the edges while sleeping without the fear of falling off.

Recommendation based on sleeping style

Good sleep is essential to maintain a healthy lifestyle, but according to the National Institute of Health (NIH), about 7 – 19% of adults in the United States do not get enough sleep. The brand Helix is linked with the concept of sleep DNA, which the company mentions on its website. Each one of us has unique sleep DNA or specific needs for comfort and support thus, it’s difficult for many people to find what they need when choosing between just one or two mattresses. Though Helix does not make a different mattress for every person, they offer a wide range of options that meet most sleepers’ needs. Helix Midnight is a good choice for every sleeping position.

Below is a detailed description of how the Helix Midnight is a good fit for different sleep positions.

  • Side Sleepers: Side sleeping average weighing people shall feel good comfort around their hips and shoulders. If someone is on the larger side, he might experience discomfort around the hips and shoulders; for people on the lighter side, it shall offer good comfort and support.
  • Back Sleepers: For average back sleepers, it offers great comfort and support. If a person is on the heavier side, i.e., more than 230 pounds, it won’t provide great support, but if one weighs less than 230 pounds, he will get good support and comfort. The mattress gives comfort to lightweight sleepers.
  • Stomach Sleepers: Average-weight stomach sleepers can get good support from the mattress; heavyweight sleepers might need firmness, as they might experience dips while sleeping on their hip side. It shall offer good support to lightweight sleepers.
  • Combination Sleepers-Those who alternate between various positions: Combination sleepers tend to change positions while sleeping. The Helix Midnight is a great bed for combination sleepers. Combination sleepers prone to tossing and turning will find the mattress to provide great comfort in every position, thus ensuring a good night’s sleep. The strong edge support and great motion isolation offered by both variants of Helix Midnight make it a great choice for combination sleepers.

  • Want a highly durable mattress

Not so ideal for sleepers, who

  • Are looking for good strong edge support
  • Our heavyweight sleepers.

Firmness

Firmness is a subjective matter. To some, a particular mattress may feel soft, while it may feel firm to others. Whether a mattress feels firm or soft, it should support body weight, promote healthy spinal alignment, and ensure comfortable and restful sleeping. Whether a mattress is soft, plush, or firm is purely defined based on personal preferences, choices, and body type.

The Helix Moonlight is one of the softest mattresses among the other Helix type. Moonlight is a medium soft mattress that is highly comfortable. The latex foam, together with pocketed coils and foam layers and a soft and breathable cover, gives the perfect balance of comfort and support for a comfortable and sound night’s sleep. It is good for lightweight back sleepers and average-weight back sleepers who enjoy a soft feel. Helix Moonlight Luxe is an upgrade over the regular Helix Moonlight mattress and is 14 inches thick. The Luxe version also falls in the medium-soft category offering more sinkage due to the pillow top layer. The Dynamic Foam used in the construction of the mattress gives it a soft and plushy feel that gives the body of the sleeper the right amount of cushion and extra comfort.

Material & Construction

The Helix Moonlight is a 12-inch hybrid mattress. It is made of latex, up to 950 individually wrapped 8 inches steel coils, and foam. It is a soft-to-touch feel mattress. The top layer gives a plush and soft feeling.

The mattress is made up of 4 layers which are detailed below:

  • Layer 1: It is the topmost comfort layer made of Helix Dynamic foam; it is a proprietary polyfoam that mixes the benefits of latex and foam for better contouring and a responsive feel.
  • Layer 2: The transition layer is the second layer made of soft Helix Dynamic Foam, ensuring comfortable cushioning, ergonomic support to the user, and motion isolation. This layer is a little firm and serves as a transition layer between the soft top layer and the pocketed coils beneath.
  • Layer 3: This is the innerspring support layer and is made up of pocketed coils, which help provide targeted support and offer fantastic body contouring and alignment. The perimeter gives additional edge support while the whole layer permits more air to flow, thus adding to the breathability of the mattress and aiding in cooling.
  • Layer 4: The base layer is made up of DuraDense Foam, which is a high-density polyfoam that results in the extra support needed for durability.

Additionally, in the Luxe variant, a zoned body shape coil layer provides longevity and support to the mattress. Up to 1500 individually wrapped 8-inch steel coils make the mattress feel soft near the shoulders and firm under the hips. The zoning technology helps to cradle the body and provide proper spine alignment.

The cover of the standard Moonlight mattress is 100% polyester with a soft white top and blue and grey bottom. The cover is thin and so designed that it helps in greater airflow, thus allowing the sleeper to have a relaxed feeling and sleep cool at night.

The Helix Moonlight Luxe cover has two different options to choose. It comes in an ultra-breathable TENCEL cover, designed for maximum airflow, or  GlacioTex Cooling Cover made with fibers with a high thermal conductivity that wicks heat away from the body, giving a comfortable sleep.

Repositioning

(4.00/5)

Repositioning means that a person can switch positions during sleep easily. Again, those who toss and turn pay attention to mattress responsiveness. It measures how quickly one can become comfortable after changing positions and how one can make an easy move. The Helix Moonlight offers ease of movement, provided by its construction. Helix Dynamic foam along with springy coils makes the Moonlight mattress bouncy. Combination sleepers can easily move around while changing positions.

Comfort, Back Support, Pressure Relief

(4.00/5)

With the different variety of mattresses available in the market, it isn’t easy to choose the right one. The right mattress can help get a good night’s sleep, which leads to the feeling of rest and refreshment upon waking up. Pain relief is another important feature that people look for while buying a mattress. Helix Moonlight is excellent in relieving pressure from the back and works well with sleepers suffering from shoulder pain. Both the model, standard, and Luxe provide good cushioning to the shoulders and give relief from stiffness and pain.

The Helix Moonlight offers soft plush comfort to the sleeper due to the presence of a soft-top layer on the mattress. The mattress is designed to provide spinal support aids in recovery and contours according to your body. It doesn’t trap a lot of heat due to its breathable cover and coils, which allow airflow through the whole mattress, which help keep the sleepers cool throughout the night. It does not have the vicious, sinking feeling associated with memory foam; instead, a sleeper would feel cushioned not unable to move owing to the latex nature of the Helix Dynamic Foam.

The suitability of the mattress for different sleeping positions is detailed below:

  • Back sleepers: The Helix Moonlight is good for lightweight and average-weight back sleepers who prefer a softer mattress. Despite the bouncy comfort layer, the mattress has a soft feel that conforms gently around the shoulders and lower back. The transition layer of Helix Dynamic Foam and the coil support offer support to keep the spine well-aligned.
    Helix Moonlight is not a good option for heavyweight back sleepers. They should check for Helix’s firmer mattresses, like the Twilight and the Dawn.
  • Side sleepers: The Moonlight is an excellent choice for lightweight and average-weight side sleepers, especially those who require contouring at the hips and shoulders but don’t love the sinking feeling of memory foam. The Helix Dynamic Foam top layer gives the bed a plush feel, but it feels less conforming when compared to memory foam. The mattress is not ideal for heavyweight back sleepers as they may not find the spinal alignment needed for comfortable side sleeping. Thus, heavyweight side sleepers should look for a more supportive option.
  • Stomach sleepers: Stomach sleepers need a bed that gives an appreciable lift to the hips and torso to prevent the lower back pain caused due to sagging. Thus, the Moonlight will provide a feel of being too soft for most of the average and heavyweight stomach sleepers. Lightweight stomach sleepers may find Moonlight comfortable, but strict stomach sleepers can go for other firmer options from Helix Sleep.
  • Heavy sleepers: Larger people, like plus-sized individuals, have their own needs when it comes to choosing their beds which is unique. Both Moonlight and Moonlight Luxe being medium-soft mattresses is not ideal for heavy sleepers; instead, they can go for Helix Plus, which is designed especially for plus-sized sleepers.

Cooling & Temperature Control

(4.00/5)

The most critical condition that determines the quality and duration of the body’s recovery during sleep is an adequate decrease in the core body temperature. The Helix Moonlight is a great mattress as it helps in keeping you cool and comfortable throughout the night. The construction of the mattress with a latex foam layer and pocketed coil layer prevents the buildup of excess heat at night.

Motion Isolation and Sharing a Bed

(3.75/5)

Helix Moonlight, a bouncy mattress, is not great at minimizing motion transfer. Though it’s not too bad because it is so vibrant, any movement is carried on to the other sleeper, who can feel it. This factor is to be kept in mind if you have a partner to share your bed with.

On the other hand, the upgraded version of Moonlight, the Helix Moonlight Luxe, offers excellent motion isolation due to the soft comfort layers. The layers absorb motion transfer better and enable disturbance-free sleep.

Edge Support

(4.50/5)

Helix Moonlight offers excellent edge support that is provided by the strengthened perimeter of pocketed coil layer. Lengthwise, two-sided edge support gives support to the perimeters. The user shall experience safety while lying or sitting at the mattress edge due to the immense support of coils, which provide strong edge support.

The Luxe variant provides four-sided (perimeter) edge support that gives complete structural stability. The softer foam layers may make the mattress feel somewhat soft near the edges; however, the zoned coil system makes up for it.

Below is a detailed description of how the Helix Moonlight is a good fit for different sleep postures.

  • Side Sleepers: An average weighted side sleeper should enjoy the maximum benefits due to the comfort they experience because of the soft layers. If you are on the healthier side but weigh less than 300 pounds, you will enjoy pressure relief, but people who weigh more could experience a sinking feeling and feel jammed on the firmer support layer beneath. This mattress is ideal for lightweight side sleepers as they experience pressure relief.
  • Back Sleepers: If one weighs average, it could be a decent fit for them, but someone who wants good support while sleeping should opt for a firmer mattress. If you are a heavyweight sleeper, it won’t offer you the much-needed comfort and support. It can give you ideal support if you are a light weighted back sleeper; in that case, it can be a good choice for you.
  • Stomach Sleepers: It would be way too soft for you if you are an average-weighted stomach sleeper, and you might experience a sinking feeling. This mattress isn’t much support for lightweight stomach sleepers; therefore, certainly not feasible for heavyweight stomach sleepers.
  • Combination Sleepers-Those who alternate between various positions: Combination sleepers tend to change positions while sleeping. The Helix Moonlight is an excellent bed for combination sleepers. Combination sleepers prone to tossing and turning will find the mattress to provide great comfort in every position, thus ensuring a good night’s sleep.

  • Want excellent pressure relief
  • Struggle with joint pain

Not so ideal for sleepers, who

  • Weigh above 130 pounds
  • Sleep on their stomach
  • Are looking for a responsive bed
  • Want firmer surface to sleep on with the less hugging feel

Firmness

Firmness is a subjective matter. To some, a particular mattress may feel soft, while it may feel firm to others. Whether a mattress feels firm or soft, it should support body weight, promote healthy spinal alignment, and ensure comfortable and restful sleeping. Whether a mattress is soft, plush, or firm is purely defined based on personal preferences, choices, and body type.

The Helix Sunset is the softest mattress in the Helix lineup and firmness lies between 1.5-3.5 in a firmness sclae of 10. The mattress offers a comfort layer of soft memory foam and a transition layer for ergonomic support and cushioning. These layers give pressure relief and are recommended for side sleepers.

Material & Construction

Helix is known to construct all its mattresses considering the different sleep positions and weight groups. Helix Sunset is 12 inches thick and belongs to the Soft Feel category. It gives the feeling of sinking into something very soft and cozy and is suitable for pressure point relief. The memory foam is designed with “microscopic air capsules” that give curve-conforming pressure relief with more resilience and breathability than natural memory foam.

The Sunset Luxe is 14 inches high, has a pillow-top, contouring memory foam, and a support core of zoned pocket springs. The two memory foams have been designed to give a soft and contouring feel.

The mattress comprises 4 layers which are detailed below:

  • Layer 1: It is the Memory Plus Foam comfort layer. This top layer is made of ultra-soft memory foam, which helps in creating a cloud-like feel that relieves pressure points.
  • Layer 2: This layer is the Helix Dynamic Foam transition layer which consists of a soft polyfoam giving a soft feel and is designed for extra cushioning. Additionally, in Luxe, a layer of high-grade polyfoam is used, which provides ergonomic support.
  • Layer 3: This layer features the pocketed coil support layer and is the supportive layer that consists of individually-encased coils for high responsiveness and support. In Luxe, more than 1000 individually wrapped coils provide zoned lumbar support. In both the model of Sunset, the reinforced perimeters help to make the edges stronger, thus cradling the sleeper’s body.
  • Layer 4: The base layer, also known as the Dura dense foam layer, is made up of high-density polyfoam. It absorbs motion and enhances durability.

The standard Sunset mattress cover is soft to touch polyester cover that stretches enough to move along the comfort layer. The cover material is breathable and allows air circulation into the mattress, thus giving an incredible feeling. In Luxe, the top cover is made of Tencel, a plant-based fabric. This fabric provides the cover smooth and silky touch and makes it highly breathable. This soft-to-touch feeling is enhanced when the cover is quilted with a thin layer of polyfoam.

Repositioning

(4.00/5)

Repositioning means that a person can switch positions during sleep easily. The Helix Sunset offers ease of movement, which is provided by its construction. Though the memory foam comfort layers tend to hug the sleepers’ body, it is balanced by the underneath pocketed coils that give the required bounce and support. The mattress makes it easy for couples to move around on the surface and change positions without making much noise. The mattress thus performs above average with respect to other hybrid models.

Comfort, Back Support, Pressure Relief

(4.00/5)

With the different variety of mattresses available in the market, it isn’t easy to choose the right one. The right mattress can help get a good night’s sleep, which leads to the feeling of rest and refreshment upon waking up. Muscles, ligaments, and spine can fully relax only when one is sleeping. With an injury in the back or any other disorder, maximum sleep is essential in the healing process. To attain optimal sleep, the choice of mattress is of prime importance as it is the mattress that determines whether you sleep comfortably, providing maximum relief to the muscles and different pressure points. As Helix offers a wide variety of mattresses, sleepers’ can choose one according to their needs and preferences.

The Helix Sunset offers soft plush comfort to the sleeper due to a soft-top layer. It also gives the best authentic memory foam experience since both the comfort and transition layers are made of memory foam. It doesn’t trap a lot of heat due to its breathable cover and coils, which allow airflow through the whole mattress. Helix Sunset alleviates pressure on the shoulder, hip, and knee joints. Luxe’s additional zoned support coils give targeted pressure relief and aid in strong edges. The suitability of the mattress for different sleeping positions is detailed below:

  • Back sleepers: Helix Sunset, a very soft mattress, does not give enough support for sleeping on the back as the hips tend to sink into the mattress, disrupting proper spine alignment.
  • Side sleepers: The Helix Sunset works well for side sleepers, though its plush feel may be too soft for some. Side sleepers will find maximum pressure relief at the shoulders and hips while lying on this mattress. The mattress ranks one of the best for hip pain.
  • Stomach sleepers: Stomach sleepers need a supportive mattress to not only sleep in comfortably at night but also keep the alignment of the spine properly. Helix Sunset being a soft mattress, does not provide the necessary support for average-weight stomach sleepers.
  • Heavy sleepers: Helix Sunset is ideally suited for lightweight sleepers, as their lighter weight means that they won’t be pressing the mattress’s comfort layers; hence they might be able to obtain more incredible support on Helix Sunset. So, if you are a sleeper under 130 pounds, then you shall be in a better position to enjoy pressure relief around the hip and shoulder.

Cooling & Temperature Control

(4.00/5)

The most important condition determining the quality and duration of the body’s recovery during sleep is an adequate decrease in the core body temperature. The Helix Sunset mattress performs average in terms of sleeping cool. Memory foam is known for its heat trapping tendency, as it traps and retains heat throughout the night. Still, the coil cores used in the construction of Helix Sunset allow air to circulate throughout the mattress, thus balancing heat retention. Tencel, a plant-based fabric in the Luxe model, makes the pillow top ultra-breathable and super soft, while the choice of GlacioTex cover makes both the sleeper and the mattress stay cool throughout the night as it dissipates the heat from the body.

Motion Isolation and Sharing a Bed

(3.75/5)

Though Helix Sunset has the presence of coils, which are known for motion transferring across the bed, it has been designed so that the motion transfer is reduced to a significant extent; the thick memory foam layer absorbs movement. This is ideally suited for couples who wish to sleep peacefully at night without disturbing each other.

Edge Support

(4.50/5)

The tendency of the foam layers to sink into the mattress because of the bodyweight makes getting out of the bed difficult. But due to the presence of layer coils in the Helix Sunset, the user experiences solid edge support, even when sitting on the side of the bed or lying near the edges. More than 1000 individually wrapped coils and reinforced perimeter along all four sides in the Sunset Luxe helps with strong edge support.

A good sleep is crucial to maintain a healthy lifestyle, but according to the National Institute of Health (NIH), about 7 – 19% of adults in the United States do not get enough sleep.

Though Helix does not make a different mattress for every person, they offer a wide range of options that meet most sleepers’ needs.

Below is a detailed description of how the Helix Sunset is a good fit for different sleep postures.

  • Side Sleepers: Helix Sunset is good for side sleepers, who turn and toss at night. The middle layers of the mattress are designed to support the body contours.
  • Back Sleepers: It is not the best mattress for offering comfort to the average weighted back sleeper, as it doesn’t provide much support to the sleeper in this position.
  • Stomach Sleepers: It isn’t best suited for average weighted stomach sleepers, as it won’t offer the desired comfort level. When it comes to the heavyweight (230 pounds plus) stomach sleepers, this won’t offer the much-needed support they shall be looking for.
  • Combination Sleepers-Those who alternate between various positions: Combination sleepers tend to change positions while sleeping. The Helix Sunset, though remarkably soft, may not be supportive enough for black sleeping, but those who change sleeping positions from back to side to stomach may find the mattress to be a good fit. The mattress cushions the pressure points, thus being recommended as the best for those who suffer from hip pain.

Pros & Cons

Helix Twilight is recommended for sleepers, who

  • Prefer sleeping on their stomach
  • Our heavyweight
  • Want pressure point relief

Not so ideal for sleepers, who

  • Prefer softer mattress
  • Strictly sleep on their sides
  • Prefer a memory foam feel
  • Don’t like a bouncy mattress

Firmness

Firmness is a subjective matter. To some, a particular mattress may feel soft, while it may feel firm to others. Whether a mattress is soft, plush, or firm is purely defined based on personal preferences, choices, and body type. Whether a mattress feels firm or soft, it should support body weight, promote healthy spinal alignment, and ensure comfortable and restful sleeping.

The Helix Twilight, compared to other Helix models, is a very firm mattress, with firmness in the range of 7.5 to 9.5 on a scale of 10. This firmness level makes Twilight an excellent choice for average-weight or heavyweight back sleepers needing more lift in the lumbar area. The Twilight is also suitable for lightweight and average-weight stomach sleepers wanting extra support. Though the top layer of the Twilight gives a contoured feel, it is enough to prevent one from sinking and is not recommended for strict side sleepers.

With its comfortable pillow top, The Twilight Luxe gave an ultra-plush feel. The gel memory foam layer beneath offered the needed cushioning. These combined layers gave the required sinkage without being stuck in the foam. The firmer support and transition layers underneath and the pocketed coils showed the much-needed support in the areas that needed the most. The zoned support provides a soft touch in the shoulders and a firm feel under the hips. These features make the Twilight Luxe one of the best mattresses in the Helix group. It is not only known to give enough comfort in the shoulder and hip area but is also known to give the perfect firmness needed when one sleeps turning on the back.

Material & Construction

The Helix Twilight a hybrid mattress is 12 inches thick and has 4 layers. It uses quality materials like other Helix models. The materials include Helix’s proprietary Memory Plus foam, premium polyfoam, and 950 individual coils. The breathable mattress cover is soft to touch and stretches slightly. It is designed to allow maximum airflow to keep the person and the mattress cool throughout the night. The cover prevents sweaty nights.

The Luxe, the upgraded version, is 14 inches thick and comes in 6 layers. It includes high-quality features like a premium pillow top, a Tencel cover, zoned lumbar support, and other added features. The cover of Twilight Luxe is super soft and is a quilted premium pillow top made up of high-density polyurethane foam. It comes in two options: an Ultra-breathable TENCEL cover, designed for maximum airflow, or a GlacioTex Cooling cover made with fibers with a high thermal conductivity that wicks heat away from the body, giving a comfortable sleep.

The different layers in the mattress are detailed below:

  • Layer 1: The first layer is the Memory Foam Plus comfort layer; it is highly dense memory foam with a firm feel that slowly contours as per the body shape; it helps minimize pain at pressure points like the hips and shoulders.
  • Layer 2: This layer is the high-grade polyfoam transition layer. It is made of durable and firm polyurethane foam, which stops the mattress from sagging and provides full-body support.
  • Layer 3: This layer consists of individually-encased coils to offer targeted support and give comfort. Special coils are used on the edges of the mattress perimeter for excellent edge support. The standard Twilight has up to 950 individually wrapped 8 inches steel coil, whereas, in the Luxe, there are up to 1500 individually wrapped 8 inches steel coils, thus making the Luxe firmer feel than the normal. The coils in Luxe provide zoned lumbar support that helps to cradle the body and provide proper spine alignment.
  • Layer 4: The base layer is the DuraDense Foam layer. It is a durable yet high-density polyfoam that boosts longevity.

Mattress Review and Rating

(4.08/5)

Repositioning

(4.00/5)

Repositioning means that a person can switch positions during sleep easily. Again, those who toss and turn pay attention to mattress responsiveness. It measures how quickly one can become comfortable after changing positions and how one can make an easy move. The standard Twilight and the Luxe provide excellent responsiveness from the pocketed coiled layers. Together with the support layers, the transition layer prevents one from sinking deep into the mattress, thus facilitating movement in the bed. The mattress is great for sex.

Comfort, Back Support, Pressure Relief

(4.00/5)

With the variety of mattresses available, it isn’t easy to choose the right one. The right mattress can help get a good night’s sleep, which leads to the feeling of rest and refreshment upon waking up. Pain relief is another important feature that people look for while buying a mattress. Back pain can be relieved only when the spine is relaxed. A mattress with good support and a cradle to the spine is often a good choice for sleepers who suffer from back pain.

As Twilight is a firm mattress, it’s not suitable for side sleepers. It lends a jammed feel around the shoulders and hip; it’s unlikely that sleepers will feel comfortable in this position. Due to the supportive feel, the Helix Twilight matches well with most of the stomach sleepers, who would experience excellent spinal support. The Helix Twilight offers many design features, implying that this mattress won’t trap much heat. Due to the presence of a breathable cover, it allows air to pass through the mattress top, whereas the coils create plenty of room for air to circulate within the mattress.

The Luxe is an ultra-comfortable mattress that gives a perfect feel of balance, comfort, and support. The premium quilted pillow top gives extra softness to the mattress. Even though it is firmer than the other mattresses in the Helix group, it prevents the appearance of excess pressure in the arms and shoulders. The distinct firmness of the mattress gives the sleepers the feeling of sleeping on top of the mattress rather than sleeping in the mattress. The memory foam layers contours around the body’s curves without giving a sinkage feeling. The zoned lumbar support helps to keep the spine aligned and provides back pressure relief.

The suitability of the mattress for different sleeping positions is detailed below:

  • Back sleepers: Lightweight back sleepers will find the Twilight too firm to sleep comfortably. They should look for softer models from Helix. The Helix Twilight is the best for average-weight, and heavyweight back sleepers as the firmness are perfect for keeping the hips elevated and the spine in proper alignment. This results in less back pain upon waking up.
  • Side sleepers: Twilight is not designed for most side sleepers as lightweight sleepers will find the mattress too firm, average-weight side sleepers will feel too much pressure under their shoulders, and heavyweight side sleepers will also find the mattress firmness too hard to sleep on comfortable. Even though the mattress is not suitable for most side sleepers, it is designed to provide pressure point relief.
  • Stomach sleepers: Lightweight stomach sleepers sleep very comfortably on Helix Twilight. Most of the average-weight stomach sleepers will sleep comfortably as the mattress offers the right firmness for them. Heavyweight stomach sleepers below 300 pounds will get enough support, but those above 300 pounds will need a firmer mattress as their hips and shoulders will not be appropriately aligned in the same line, leading to lower back pain.
  • Heavy sleepers: Larger people, like plus-sized individuals, have their own needs when it comes to choice of their beds which is unique. The Twilight, the firmest mattress in the Helix lineup, can be a perfect choice for heavy sleepers. The zoned support technology of the Luxe offers a lot of support around the hips, thus making it a good choice for heavy sleepers. Heavy side sleepers would also like the Luxe for its point pressure relief support and healthy spine alignment.

Cooling & Temperature Control

(4.00/5)

The most critical condition that determines the quality and duration of the body’s recovery during sleep is an adequate decrease in the core body temperature. The Helix Twilight is the best cooling mattress as its temperature regulation is excellent. Like the other Helix models, the individually wrapped coils allow optimal air to flow through the mattress. The breathable cover adds to the temperature neutrality.

The cover of Luxe is not only super soft but is cooling and naturally breathable as it features Ultra-Breathable Tencel technology which promotes optimal airflow and prevents heat buildup, thus making the mattress an enjoyable surface to sleep on and keeping one cool throughout the night.

Motion Isolation and Sharing a Bed

(3.75/5)

Despite it being a firm, bouncy mattress, the Helix Twilight amazingly does an excellent job while minimizing motion transfer across the mattress. Because of the presence of the memory foam layer on top, the mattress is good at absorbing movement.

Edge Support

(4.50/5)

Due to a solid support layer of coils, the Helix Twilight provides great solid edge support. It provides a secure feeling when sitting or lying down near the edge of this mattress. Both the models of Twilight, being a combination of high-quality foam and steel coils, is highly durable. The mattress features reinforced perimeter edges with lengthwise two-sided edge support in the case of standard Twilight and entire perimeter (four-sided) edge support for complete structural stability in the Luxe model.

Recommendation based on sleeping style

Good sleep is cessesntial for maintaining a healthy lifestyle, but according to the National Institute of Health (NIH), about 7 – 19% of adults in the United States do not get enough sleep. The brand Helix is linked with the concept of sleep DNA, which the company mentions on its website. Each of us has a different sleep DNA or specific needs for comfort and support; thus, it becomes difficult for many people to find what they need when choosing between just one or two mattresses. Though Helix does not make a different mattress for every person, they offer a wide range of options that meet most sleepers’ needs. Helix Twilight is a good choice for every sleeping position.

Below is a detailed description of how the Helix Twilight is a good fit for different sleep positions.

  • Side Sleepers: It may be too firm for lightweight side sleepers, who might experience pressure around their shoulder and hip area. Heavyweight side sleepers might find this mattress too firm when sleeping in this position. This mattress is definitely way too firm for average-weight side sleepers, who will likely experience pressure around the shoulders and hip.
  • Back Sleepers: Sleepers who weigh average shall find good support on the firm Helix Twilight. People who like more pressure relief might find that this feels a tad too firm for this position. Heavyweight back sleepers would tend to enjoy comfortable support on this mattress. Though it’s supportive, the Helix Twilight might be too firm for lightweight back sleepers.
  •  Stomach Sleepers: The firm feel of this mattress makes it a fantastic fit for stomach sleepers, who will find their hips and spine to remain aligned whenever sleeping. Heavyweight stomach sleepers who may weigh less than 300 pounds will get enough spinal support, while those weighing more than 300 pounds will probably have to look for other options. The firm feels offered by this mattress is excellent for lightweight stomach sleepers, who will get to enjoy plenty of support.
  • Combination Sleepers-Those who alternate between various positions: Combination sleepers tend to change positions while sleeping. The Helix Twilight with its Memory Plus Foam layer gives combination sleepers good support to move across the bed throughout the night easily and comfortably, without feeling stuck in the bed. Individually wrapped coils further give the mattress its bounce. Thus, Twilight and Twilight Luxe is a good choice for sleepers of all body types who toss and turn throughout the night.

Q2: Mattress price change throughout the year based on demand and supply, seasonal promotions and discounts during the national holidays. How should a prospective customer ensure that they get the best price?

Yes, mattress price like other big ticket items fluctuate throughout the year by hundreds of dollars. Lot of the promotions are run during in and around national holidays:

The promotions can run from discount on mattress price to including bundles of gift items like sheet sets, pillows, etc. In addition, mattress manufacturers also run promotions like summer sales, spring sales, etc. If not in a rush and with appropriate research, customers can generally buy mattresses below sticker price throughout the year.

At smartmattressbuy.com, we use "bots" to track price and product details daily and we allow prospective customers to use this unique tool (not available elsewhere) to see how price have changed in the past for different mattress brands, and sizes.

This is a useful tool and of course there is no guaranty that low price will be available, but it helps customers to form an expectation on what should be the fair price of a mattress be and when is the appropriate time to buy a mattress "NOW or WAIT for a Great Deal".
