GoodBed Expert Review
Our Take on Helix Moonlight Elite
Founder of GoodBed, Leading Mattress Expert
BEST if you
- Want an ultra soft mattress
- Are mainly a side sleeper
- Have a clear preference for being hugged or cradled by your mattress
- Can sometimes be disturbed by other movements in the bed (motion isolation is very good)
- Prefer a below average amount of 'memory feel'
- Would like a mattress that performs very well when used with an adjustable base
NOT IDEAL if you
- Weigh 225 lb or more, especially if you sleep on your stomach
- Don't like much bounce in your mattress
- Regularly sit or sleep along the edge of your bed (edge support is good, but not the best)
- Are allergic to latex
- Want a natural or organic mattress (though this mattress is still pretty good in terms of avoiding harmful chemicals)

Yes, the Helix Moonlight Elite mattress is adjustable base compatible. This means it is designed to be used on an adjustable base without incurring damage or voiding the warranty. In our review of this mattress, we tested it on an adjustable base to look for any adverse effects as the head and foot are elevated, and to see how well it conforms to the contours of the base both with and without the weight of a sleeper. Overall, we found the Moonlight Elite to have very good adjustable base compatibility.

Additional Information
General Description
We're changing the way you think about bed-in-a-box. The Moonlight Elite mattress combines 5 carefully chosen comfort layers and 2 separate microcoil comfort layers, resulting in a 16" mattress that exudes luxury from top to bottom. Each Elite mattress ships in two separate boxes.
Cover & Pillow Top - Cutting-Edge Cooling & Cushioning
- This plush, luxurious, quilted foam pillow top features our built-in GlacioTex Elite cooling fabric that dissipates heat, ensuring temperature-regulated, pressure relieving comfort all night long.
Comfort Layer - Helix Dynamic Foam
- Our exclusive foam blend offers a soft, responsive feel on the surface of the mattress and cradles your body to prevent you from sinking in too far, making it ideal for stomach and back sleepers.
Microcoil Comfort Layer - Individually Wrapped Microcoils
- Steel microcoils sit between two layers of high density foam to cradle your body and ensure premium comfort, targeted pressure relief, and spinal alignment.
Support Layer - Helix Dynamic Foam
- Another layer of our exclusive foam blend provides additional soft comfort in the body of the mattress, creating a plush, cradling feel as you sleep.
Microcoil Comfort Layer - Individually Wrapped Microcoils
- This second layer of steel microcoils offers additional durable comfort, with targeted pressure relief at your shoulders and hips.
Support Layer - Helix Dynamic Foam
- A high-density foam layer offering essential support for sleepers of any size. This latex-alternative blend provides responsive support and cradling comfort.
Transition Layer - Helix Responsive Foam
- Arranged just above the support base, this layer of high-grade Helix Responsive Foam ensures the durability and pressure relieving support of our steel coil base.
Support Base - Individually Wrapped Zoned Coils
- An 8" layer of premium steel coils, built with zoned lumbar support and full perimeter reinforcement. This advanced coil base offers sturdy support for sleepers of any size.
Base Layer - DuraDense Foam
- A final layer of dense foam encloses the bottom surface of the mattress, bolstering the steel coil support base and maintaining its structure and luxury feel.
