GoodBed Expert Review
Our Take on Helix Kids - Soft Side (Ages 3-7)
Founder of GoodBed, Leading Mattress Expert
BEST if you
- Would lean toward a mattress with child-specific features
- Want a mattress with a medium amount of softness
- Are mainly a back sleeper
- Often sit or sleep along the edge of your bed (edge support is very good)
- Prefer a mattress with very little 'memory feel'
- Want to be able to adjust the comfort level of your mattress in the future if needed
- Like just enough bounce that your mattress doesn't feel completely 'dead'
- Enjoy a happy medium between sleeping 'on' your mattress versus 'in' it
NOT IDEAL if you
- Weigh 225 lb or more, especially if you sleep on your stomach
- Have a strong tendency to sleep hot (temperature regulation is pretty good, but not the best)
- Want a natural or organic mattress (though this mattress is still OK in terms of avoiding harmful chemicals)

Additional Information
General Description
Kids Mattress Benefits
2-Sided Design for Growing Kids
- 8" hybrid mattress with 6" innersprings and custom foam layers to provide the right safety, comfort, support, and durability for growing kids with changing needs and preferences.
Firmer Side
- The firmer side is great for younger kids (suggested for 3-7 year olds) when they need additional support to aid proper development of their growing bodies.
Softer Side
- As kids get older, they tend to favor mattresses with more of a comforting feel, which is why we created a softer side for older kids (suggested for 8-12) that still provides excellent support.
Sleep Safely
- To ensure your kid won’t be exposed to dangerous chemicals, this mattress was tested for lead and phthalate and all foams are CertiPUR-US® certified, which guarantees they were made without harmful chemicals.
Soft Side Layers
Cover
- Antimicrobial, Water-Repellent Design. Made with soft, hypoallergenic, and breathable TENCEL and treated with a water-repellent finish and a hygienic microbe shield.
Fire Retardant
- Protection From Flammability. Both sides of this mattress, as well as the side panels, are safeguarded from flammability.
Softer Comfort Layer (Ages 8-12)
