Helix Sunset Luxe

GoodBed Expert Review
Our Take on Helix Sunset Luxe

Founder of GoodBed
Michael Magnuson

Founder of GoodBed, Leading Mattress Expert

Bottom Line - Is the Helix Sunset Luxe the right mattress for you?
Bottom line best icon BEST if you
  • Want a soft mattress
  • Are mainly a side sleeper
  • Can sometimes be disturbed by other movements in the bed (motion isolation is very good)
  • Enjoy being hugged or cradled by your mattress
  • Would like a mattress that performs very well when used with an adjustable base
  • Prefer an average amount of 'memory feel'
Bottom line not ideal icon NOT IDEAL if you
  • Have a strong tendency to sleep hot (temperature regulation is pretty good, but not the best)
  • Regularly sit or sleep along the edge of your bed (edge support is good, but not the best)
  • Don't like any bounce in your mattress
  • Tend to have difficulty changing positions during the night (though ease of repositioning is still pretty good)
  • Want a natural or organic mattress (though this mattress is still OK in terms of avoiding harmful chemicals)
Sounds good so far? Get the full details.

  • Yes, the Helix Sunset Luxe 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 Sunset Luxe to have very good adjustable base compatibility.
