Helix Luxe Mattress Firmness And Feel
Let’s take a look at the Helix Luxe mattresses’s different firmnesses and see how they work for different types of sleepers.
How Firm Are The Helix Luxe Mattresses
With the Helix Luxe mattresses, you have a variety of firmnesses to choose from. Their softest model, the Helix Sunset Luxe is a 5.5/10, much softer than average. The Helix Moonlight Luxe is a little firmer at 6/10. The Helix Midnight Luxe mattress and Dusk Luxe are both close to a 6.5, the industry standard for medium-firm. The Twilight Luxe is a bit firmer than average with a score of 7.0. Finally, the firmest model is the Dawn Luxe. It feels like a 7.5 on our firmness scale, a good deal firmer than average.
The firmness of these mattresses really depends on what is in the comfort layer. We’ll get into more details below, but each mattress features different materials in its comfort layer, making it feel firmer or softer.
Sleeping On The Helix Luxe Mattresses
I had the chance to sleep on every single Helix Luxe mattress. I’d like to discuss how it felt to back, side, and stomach sleep on each model.

The Helix Sunset Luxe is the softest Luxe model, so I don’t feel the best while back sleeping. The mattress feels too soft for me in this position, and I feel like I am dropping into the mattress. Even with the zoned coils, I need more support under my lower back.
This mattress really shines when I am side sleeping. Softer mattresses are usually better for side sleepers, and the Sunset Luxe is no exception. I feel almost no pressure on my shoulders and hips, but I am still kept in good alignment by the zoning.
Being a softer mattress, the Helix Sunset Luxe is not a good fit for stomach sleeping. I can feel my hips sinking too far into the mattress, and this could lead to back pain over time.

The Helix Moonlight Luxe is slightly firmer than the Sunset Luxe, but I’m still not getting quite enough support while I am back sleeping. Overall, it is too soft when I am back sleeping.
Side sleeping, the Helix Moonlight Luxe is a much better fit. It’s not as soft as the Sunset Luxe, but it is still relieving any buildup around my pressure points. The pillow top and soft foam layers take the shape of my body and make side sleeping very comfortable.
The Moonlight Luxe is too soft for me when I am stomach sleeping. The soft top layers are allowing my hips to sink in too far.

Back sleeping on the Helix Midnight Luxe, the mattress feels just right. The Helix Midnight Luxe is one of the brand’s medium-firm mattresses and gives me just the right balance of comfort and support for back sleeping. I feel my hips sink in just a bit while the coils hold up my body. The additional zoning also provides extra support for my lower back. This is definitely one of the best mattresses for back sleepers.
Side sleeping, the Helix Midnight Luxe isn’t a bad match, but I am feeling some pressure on my shoulders and hips. I’ll discuss below how this might work better for lightweight side sleepers.
The Helix Midnight Luxe is not quite firm enough for stomach sleeping. It feels more supportive than the Moonlight or Sunset, but I still need some more support under my hips.

I had a similar experience back sleeping on the Helix Dusk Luxe. The pillow top is extremely comfortable and cushions me as I lie down. I can also feel the support of the coils and zoning. I weigh 270 lbs, and it’s a great match for a back sleeper of my size.
The Helix Dusk Luxe is also a decent match for side sleeping. I could use some more cushioning around my joints, but I can move from my back to side, and I feel comfortable in both positions.
Just as I felt with the Midnight Luxe, the Dusk Luxe is too soft for me when I am stomach sleeping. If I just slept on my stomach a bit, it wouldn’t be a bad match. However, I wouldn’t want to just sleep on my stomach on the Dusk Luxe.

The Twilight Luxe is the brand’s second firmest model. While some people might think it is too firm for back sleeping, I did not have this experience. Being a larger person, my hips are able to compress the top layers, and I also feel very well supported in this position.
This mattress is definitely too firm for me when I am side sleeping. My shoulders and hips feel bunched up, and this starts to feel uncomfortable after a short period of time.
However, stomach sleeping, the Helix Twilight Luxe is a great match for me. I don’t feel like my hips are sinking in too far, and the mattress is giving me good overall support.

The firmest Luxe mattress feels too firm when I am back and side sleeping. When I lie in these positions, I feel like I am being pushed out of the mattress. I definitely need some more softness on top to give me the comfort I need.
The Helix Dawn Luxe is a fantastic mattress for stomach sleeping. The surface feels flat and supportive when I Iie on my belly.
What Do The Helix Luxe Mattresses Feel Like
The Helix Luxe mattresses are all hybrids so, first off, they are bouncy and responsive. Also, they all feature pillow tops, so there is some of that plush feel right on top.
Depending on what they have in their comfort layer, each mattress is going to feel a bit different. The Sunset Luxe and Midnight Luxe have memory foam in their top comfort layer. This gives them a slight slow-moving memory foam feel on top. The other models have more responsive foam in their comfort layers, making them feel bouncier on top.
Average Weight Sleepers – 130 lbs – 230 lb
If you are an average weight back sleeper, the Midnight Luxe and Dusk Luxe are going to be your best bet. These medium-firm mattresses offer the best balance of comfort and support. If you like something softer, the Moonlight Luxe could work and, if you like something firmer, consider the Twilight Luxe.
Average weight side sleepers will most likely prefer the Sunset Luxe and Moonlight Luxe. These soft mattresses should relieve pressure on the shoulders and hips. Average weight side sleepers could also get enough pressure relief on the Midnight Luxe and Dusk Luxe. If you are in this weight range, you should mostly feel the soft layers on top.
Stomach sleepers of this body type will want to take a look at the Helix Twilight Luxe or the Helix Dawn Luxe. The Helix Midnight Luxe or Dusk Luxe could also be supportive enough for some average weight combination sleepers.
Heavyweight Sleepers – Over 230 lb
Heavyweight back sleepers will want to take a look at the Helix Midnight Luxe or Helix Dusk Luxe. If you are a heavier back sleeper, you might also like the firmer Helix Twilight Luxe mattress. If you weigh over 300 lb, you might want to consider the Helix Plus which is made just for heavy people.
Heavyweight side sleepers should prefer the Helix Sunset Luxe or Helix Moonlight Luxe. If you are over 300 lb, you might bottom out on these mattresses and feel serious pressure on your shoulders and hips. If this is the case, take a look at the Helix Plus, which is specifically designed for larger sleepers, or another mattress for heavy people.
Heavyweight stomach sleepers who weigh less than 275 lb should like the Helix Dawn Luxe. If you weigh more than this, you will need a more supportive mattress overall.
Lightweight Sleepers – Under 130 lb
If you are a lighter person, the Helix Midnight Luxe and Helix Dusk Luxe should be your best option. If you like a softer mattress, the Moonlight Luxe should also work for you.
Lightweight side sleepers will like the Sunset Luxe and Moonlight Luxe as well as the Midnight Luxe and Dusk Luxe. They should probably stay away from the Twilight Luxe and Dawn Luxe as these will feel too firm.
Lightweight stomach sleepers will most likely prefer the Dawn Luxe and Twilight Luxe. If you change positions at night, consider the Midnight Luxe or Dusk Luxe.

Helix Luxe Mattress Construction
Before we get into the specifics of each mattress, let’s talk about the materials we find in all of the Helix Luxe mattresses.
First off, with each Helix Luxe mattress, you get a choice of covers. You can choose between a breathable Tencel coveror a special GlacioTexâ„¢ Cooling Cover. The cooling cover costs a few hundred dollars more, and it is designed to draw heat away from your body. These mattresses all boast a quilted pillow top that is plush and adds a cloud-like feel to the top.
All Helix Luxe mattresses contain a support layer of pocketed coils. These are durable, breathable, and supportive. The coil layer is also zoned, meaning it is firmer toward the center of the mattress. This is meant to provide extra lumbar support, keeping your spine neutrally aligned.
On the bottom of the Helix Luxe mattresses there is a layer of DuraDense foam. This base layer supports the layers above and keeps the coils from digging into your bed frame or foundation.
The main construction differences between the Helix Luxe mattresses are found in the comfort layers. Let’s look at each model one by one.
Helix Sunset Luxe
The Helix Sunset Luxe’s main comfort layer is Helix Responsive Foam with a soft feel. This offers good bounce and pressure relief right on top of the mattress.
Then, you’ll have a layer of Copper Gel memory foam which is pressure-relieving and cooling. This sits atop a transition layer of Helix Responsive Foam.
Helix Moonlight Luxe
The Helix Moonlight Luxe contains layers of Helix Responsive Foam and Helix Dynamic Foam right beneath the pillow top. This gives the Moonlight Luxe some more bounce and makes it a bit firmer than the Sunset Luxe.
Helix Midnight Luxe
The top comfort layer of the Helix Midnight Luxe is Helix Responsive Foam. Again, this adds some nice pressure-relieving comfort and bounce to the top of the mattress. Beneath that, we find a layer of Copper Gel Memory Foam. This material is soft, comfy and cooling. It rests on a layer of Memory Plus Foam with a medium firmness.
Helix Dusk Luxe
The Helix Dusk Luxe features Helix Responsive Foam in its main comfort layer. With this on top, the Dusk Luxe feels bouncier than the Midnight Luxe and a bit firmer right on top. It rests on a bouncy layer of medium-firm Helix Dynamic Foam. And, with a layer of Memory Plus Foam right below, you get some comfort deeper in the mattress. Combined, these three layers make the mattress feel medium-firm.
Helix Twilight Luxe
On top of the Helix Twilight Luxe there is a layer of Helix Responsive Foam. This foam makes the top of the mattress feel very firm and supportive. Then, you’ll find a layer of Memory Plus Foam which adds some more give to the Twilight Luxe. This rests on a transition layer made of Helix Responsive Foam.
Helix Dawn Luxe
The firmest Helix Luxe mattress also features a layer of firm Helix Responsive Foam in its top comfort layer. Beneath that, a layer of Helix Dynamic Foam adds some more bounce and a firmer feel to the top of the mattress. Below this, there is a transition layer made of Helix Responsive Foam.

Helix Luxe Mattress Performance
I ran the Helix Luxe mattresses through a number of tests with regard to cooling, motion isolation, and edge support. Let’s see how these six mattresses performed!
Sleeping Hot or Cold
First off, the Helix Luxe mattresses are hybrids. With coils in the support layers, hybrid mattresses are usually quite breathable and promote airflow. Second, the Helix Luxe mattresses come with an optional cooling cover. With this cover on top, the mattresses feel cool to touch and work to keep me from overheating at night.
If you need a mattress for hot sleepers, I would recommend the Helix Luxe mattresses with the additional cooling cover.
Motion Transfer
The Helix Luxe mattresses did not perform the best during my initial motion isolation tests. I placed a glass of water on top and pushed into the surrounding areas. I saw some disturbance in the water, which wasn’t a good sign.
However, when I lie down on one side of the Helix Luxe mattresses and ask someone to move around on the other side, I am not feeling those movements transfer to my side of the mattress. The coils and thick layers of foam seem to be absorbing most of that motion.
These could be good mattresses for couples.
Edge Support
While the Helix Luxe mattresses range in terms of firmness, they all have excellent edge support. The coils and dense foam support me when I am sitting and lying down near the edge of these six mattresses. I don’t feel like I am going to roll or fall off during the night.
Durability
The Helix Luxe mattresses are luxurious and feature some very high-quality materials. The high-density foams and supportive coils should last for a number of years. Based on their construction, I see the Helix Luxe mattresses lasting for over 10 years.
Read our guide on how to make your mattress last longer.
Off-gassing
When I was unboxing the Helix Luxe mattresses, I did smell some chemical off-gassing. This is normal with bed-in-a-box mattresses, so I was not too surprised. I left the mattresses in a well-ventilated room, and the smell dissipated after 48 hours.
Noise
The Helix Luxe mattresses are hybrids, but I did not hear any squeaking from the coils when I moved around. This might change over time but, right out of the box, the Helix Luxe mattresses are very quiet.
Sex
Sexual partners usually want to find a mattress that is responsive and makes it easy to move around. All of the Helix Luxe mattresses are quite bouncy and should be good mattresses for sex.
Company Policies
Let’s take a closer look at the fine print for the Helix Luxe mattresses.
Warranty Info
The Helix Luxe mattresses come with a competitive 15-year warranty.
Sleep Trial
Helix Sleep offers a 100-night sleep trial period with all its mattresses.
Return Policy
The Helix mattresses all come with free shipping and returns.
How Do The Helix Luxe Mattresses Compare To Other Mattresses?
It’s always a good idea to comparison shop when you’re looking for a new mattress. I’d like to discuss how the Luxe mattresses stack up against the competition.
Helix Luxe vs Helix
If you’re looking at the Helix mattresses, you’ll have to decide between its standard and luxe lines. The luxe versions are more deluxe and feature some additional materials. Specifically, the luxe mattresses feature a pillow top, while the Helix Standard mattresses do not.
You can also add a cooling cover to your Helix Luxe mattress, but you cannot do this with the Standard Helix Mattresses. The Helix Luxe mattresses also feature zoned coils, something you do not find in the Helix Standard mattresses. The zoning provides the Luxe mattresses with more lumbar support.
However, with all of these extra features, the Helix Luxe mattresses do cost more than the Helix Standard mattresses.
Who Should Get The Helix Luxe Mattresses?
- Those who want a durable, longer-lasting mattress
- Hot sleepers
- Back sleepers who need more lumbar support
Who Should Get The Helix Standard Mattresses?
- Shoppers who want to spend less on their mattress
- Lightweight adults, children, and teenagers
- Those who don’t sleep too hot
FAQs
Is the Helix Luxe worth the extra money?
If you are a hot sleeper and you want a mattress to last you for a long period of time, the Helix Luxe is definitely worth it. You will spend more money up front, but you won’t be buying a new mattress in just a few years.
How much is a Helix Luxe?
The Helix Luxe mattresses range in price from around $1000 for a twin up to over $2000 for a California king.
How long will the Helix Luxe mattresses last?
Depending on your weight and how often you use the mattress, the Helix Luxe mattresses should last for between 10 and 15 years.
