Helix Sleep is a New York based bed-in-a-box company that’s been taking the mattress world by storm since 2015. The brand currently offers a standard Helix mattress line, a corresponding luxury line called Helix Luxe, an all-natural organic mattress called the Birch, and a mattress designed for heavy people called the Helix Plus.
If you know you’re interested in a Helix Luxe mattress, stick around! I’m going to review all six Helix Luxe mattresses in this article. For information on Helix’s standard models and sleep accessories, you can visit our Helix Mattress Reviews page. I’d also encourage you to take a look at our Helix vs Helix Luxe mattress comparison for more in-depth information on how the Luxe and Standard Helix lines differ.

Helix Luxe Mattress Similarities
Before I break down each Helix Luxe model, I want to touch on how the Helix Luxe mattresses are the same. These beds are all quite similarly constructed, and I often think of this line as one mattress model that’s offered in six different firmness levels. Take a look at the Helix Luxes’ similarities below:
- The Helix Luxes are all pillow top hybrid mattresses that combine pressure relief and support.
- All of these high-quality beds should work for combination sleepers, thanks to their springy pocketed coil construction (though I think the Dusk is the most responsive of the bunch).
- All the Helix Luxes are cooling, thanks to Tencel covers and breathable wrapped coil support layers.
- All of the Helix Luxe models’ coil systems offer zoned support. This means they’ll feel softer at the shoulders where you need extra pressure relief, and firmer at the lower back to provide extra support where most of your body weight is concentrated.
- All of the Helix Luxe models feature strong edge support, which means you can sleep all the way on the sides of these beds without feeling like you might fall off. It’s also a nice indicator that these beds have great durability.
- All Helix Luxe mattresses are the same price.
Comparing Helix Luxe Mattresses
Now that you know how these beds are similar, let’s get into the details on each model! The chart below includes a quick overview of each different Helix Luxe mattress. You’ll find more in-depth info on each bed below.

Helix Sunset Luxe Mattress Review
The Sunset Luxe is the softest model in the Helix Luxe line. A combination of soft Memory Plus foam and springy Helix Dynamic Foam create a soft yet responsive feel. Regardless of your preferred sleeping position, you won’t feel swallowed by the foam layers of this mattress.
- Feel: Soft
- Sinkage: Moderate, “hug-like” feel
- Best for: Side sleepers, memory foam mattress lovers
- Not Good for: Stomach sleepers, heavy people

Helix Moonlight Luxe Mattress Review
The Moonlight Luxe feels similar to the Sunset Luxe, but uses Dynamic Foam in its top layer. This gives it a more latex-mattress-like feel. So while it’s equally soft and cushioning, it feels even springier than the Sunset Luxe.
- Feel: Soft
- Sinkage: Moderate to minimal, offers some body-contouring
- Best for: Side sleepers, combination sleepers
- Not Good for: Stomach sleepers, heavy people

Helix Midnight Luxe Mattress Review
The standard Helix Midnight is Helix’s most popular mattress. The Midnight Luxe is the brand’s luxury take on a medium-firm memory foam hybrid. The Midnight Luxe’s thick memory foam comfort layer offers plenty of pressure relief and body contouring, while its zoned coil layer ensures you’re getting plenty of lumbar support.
- Feel: Medium-soft to medium-firm
- Sinkage: Moderate, “hug-like”
- Best for: Back sleepers, side sleepers
- Not Good for: Stomach sleepers, heavy people

Helix Dusk Luxe Mattress

Helix Dusk Luxe Mattress Review
The Dusk Luxe has a firmer feel than the Midnight Luxe, thought they’re both medium-firm mattresses. This is also the bounciest bed in the Helix Luxe line, and it felt similar to a traditional innerspring mattress to me. While this bounciness does lead to some high motion transfer (which isn’t ideal for couples), it’s a great fit for combination sleepers who like to change positions throughout the night.
- Feel: Medium-firm
- Sinkage: Minimal, “on top of the bed” feel
- Best for: Combination sleepers, back sleepers
- Not Good for: Couples, side sleepers

Helix Twilight Luxe Mattress Review
The Twilight Luxe is also a medium-firm mattress. I found it quite comfortable in most sleeping positions, and I’d particularly recommend it to couples on the hunt for a new mattress. It does a great job reducing motion transfer, has a fairly universal comfort level for most body types, and promotes airflow to sleep cool.
- Feel: Medium-firm
- Sinkage: Moderate, “hug-like” feel
- Best for: Couples, back sleepers
- Not Good for: Stomach sleepers

Helix Dawn Luxe Mattress Review
If you’re looking for a firm feel, the best mattress in the Helix Luxe line for you is the Helix Dawn Luxe. This is the firmest mattress in the Luxe line, and it does a nice job promoting a neutral spinal alignment when you’re on your back or stomach. It’s also one of the bouncier Helix Luxe models, which is a perk for combination sleepers.
- Feel: Firm
- Sinkage: Minimal, “on top of the bed” feel
- Best for: Combination sleepers, stomach sleepers
- Not Good for: Side sleepers, couples

Our Review Process
At Sleepopolis, our Certified Sleep Science Coaches personally test each mattress. We start by unboxing the mattress to figure out how difficult (or easy) it is to get the mattress from the box to the bed. Then, we spend time laying on the bed in different positions, taking time to assess it on our backs, stomachs, and sides. Next, we perform our Sleepopolis tests, using specialized tools to measure qualities like motion transfer, bounce, and pressure relief. Our last step is to open up the mattress and take a look at each layer. These steps allow us to give our final verdict on the mattress. Jump back to our mattress picks.
