Boasting a soft and breathable feel, the Helix Moonlight from Helix Sleep is a hybrid mattress with both foam and coil layers. It’s soft to lie on, but it also has a little bounce to it, too. This mattress is one of the softer models Helix offers (and it has a ton of great reviews), so I had to test it out for myself to see if it lives up to the hype.
The Helix Moonlight comes in a standard model and a luxe model. The Helix Moonlight Luxe has a few additional features, including zoned support and a pillow top. Keep reading to find out everything you need to know about the Helix Moonlight standard and Helix Moonlight Luxe, including construction details, what type of sleepers they’re best for, and how they truly feel throughout the night.

Is the Helix Moonlight a Good Mattress for You?
The Helix Moonlight is one of Helix’s six hybrid mattresses, and it comes in both a standard model and a pricier luxe version. I’d recommend checking out my Helix mattress review and Helix Luxe mattress review to learn more about the other mattresses in both lines.
Depending on your unique sleeping needs — like your body weight, preferred sleeping position, and whether or not you sleep with a partner or pet — the Helix Moonlight or Helix Moonlight Luxe may or may not work for you. Take a look at some of my recommendations below.
Who I recommend the Helix Moonlight for
- Both the Helix Moonlight and Helix Moonlight Luxe are great beds for side sleepers. The standard Helix Moonlight has an ultra plush feel that gives side sleepers the deep sinkage they need around their hips and shoulders. However, I do think the Helix Moonlight Luxe model could be a better choice for sleepers with back pain, since its zoned support system is designed to promote a straight spinal alignment during the night.
- The Helix Moonlight has a nice, bouncy feel, which means you’re unlikely to feel “stuck” in this bed. I’d readily recommend this bed to combination sleepers, who need to be able to easily switch positions and move around while sleeping.
- The Helix Moonlight Luxe is a nice option for couples. Its bouncy feel makes it a good mattress for sex, and its memory foam pillow top absorbs quite a bit of motion, so you’re unlikely to be disturbed by your partner’s tossing and turning on their side of the bed.
- I think the Helix Moonlight is a great bed for anyone suffering from shoulder pain or hip pain. It has a super plush feel that helps to cradle and contour around sensitive joints.
Who I don’t recommend the Helix Moonlight for
- I think both the Helix Moonlight and the Helix Moonlight Luxe are both too soft for stomach sleepers. Those who sleep prone need a firm mattress to help keep their hips in line with their shoulders. I’d recommend these sleepers go with the firmest Helix model: the Helix Dawn. Or these sleepers can check out our roundup of the best mattresses for stomach sleepers.
- I don’t think the Helix Moonlight or the Helix Moonlight Luxe have adequate support for heavier sleepers (those over 250 pounds). I’d recommend that these sleepers check out the Helix Plus (which is specifically designed for heavy people) or one of our best mattresses for heavy people.
How Firm is the Helix Moonlight Mattress?
Now that you know a few basics about the Helix Moonlight and Helix Moonlight Luxe, let’s talk about what these mattresses feel like, starting with their firmness. Like any feel factor, firmness is subjective, so it depends on your body composition and how you like to sleep. For reference, I’m a stomach sleeper, I’m about 5’10” tall, and I weight around 190 pounds.
After lying on the standard Helix Moonlight for a while, I decided to give it a firmness rating of 5.5 out of 10 on our firmness scale. Given that the industry standard for a medium-firm mattress is set at a 6.5 on our firmness scale, my rating confirms that this bed is quite soft. The Helix Moonlight Luxe had about the same firmness rating, though it did offer a bit more sinkage, thanks to its additional pillow top layer.
This lines up with the description of the Helix Moonlight as one of the softer models in Helix’s six-mattress lineup. I gave this mattress a 5.5 because the Helix Dynamic Foam included in its comfort layer established a soft, plushy feel that really cushioned my body for extra pressure relief (more on this later).
Helix Moonlight Mattress Performance
While mattress firmness is important, it isn’t everything. As well as rating the firmness of the Helix Moonlight, I conducted a few specific tests to see just how well the standard Helix Moonlight can work for different sleepers. Read on below to learn more.
Testing the Helix Moonlight Mattress in Different Sleeping Positions
Depending on your weight, body type, and preferred sleeping position, the Helix Moonlight will feel different to different sleepers. Take a look below to see how the Helix Moonlight performs for sleepers in different weight classes.
Is the Helix Moonlight a Good Mattress for Light Sleepers (Under 130 pounds)?
- Light Back Sleepers – These sleepers should get enough support on the Helix Moonlight and the Helix Moonlight Luxe, especially if they like a softer feel to their mattress.
- Light Side Sleepers – These sleepers should feel really comfortable on either Moonlight model. They should get plenty of cushioning around their sensitive pressure points during the night.
- Light Stomach Sleepers – Stomach sleepers need extra support to keep their spine aligned while they sleep, so they’ll likely find that this mattress is too soft for their needs. I’d suggest that these sleepers opt for a firmer Helix model, like the Helix Dawn.
Is the Helix Moonlight a Good Mattress for Average Weight Sleepers (130 – 250 pounds)?
- Average Weight Back Sleepers – I’d recommend that these sleepers opt for the Helix Moonlight Luxe, which offers a bit more back support than the standard Helix Moonlight model, thanks to its zoned support layer.
- Average Weight Side Sleepers – The standard Helix Moonlight and Helix Moonlight Luxe are both good fits for side sleepers who want to avoid uncomfortable pressure around their shoulders and hips while sleeping.
- Average Weight Stomach Sleepers – Both Moonlight models are probably going to be too soft for the majority of these sleepers. Stomach sleepers will most likely find that their hips sink too far into these beds, creating a bend at the back that can lead to pain over time.
Is the Helix Moonlight a Good Mattress for Heavy Sleepers (Over 250 pounds)?
- Heavy Sleepers – The standard Helix Moonlight and Helix Moonlight Luxe are both too soft to be supportive enough for heavier people. Like I mentioned above, I’d recommend that these sleepers check out the Helix Plus mattress, which was specifically designed with heavier sleepers in mind.
Helix Moonlight Mattress Pain Relief Performance
Pain relief is an important consideration for a lot of sleepers. To measure pain relief, I like to conduct a pressure map test. This test measures how much pressure a mattress will place on sensitive joints like the hips, shoulders, and lower back.
After setting up the map on top of the mattress, I rolled around on it to see how much force my body exerted on the structure. The device then creates a color-coded map of that pressure, with blue areas equating to low pressure, and red areas equating to high pressure.
Back Pain – The pressure map lit up entirely blue while sleeping on my back, which indicates that the Helix Moonlight does a nice job relieving tension for back sleepers. The map also shows low pressure for side sleepers with back pain. However, I recommend stomach sleepers and some back sleepers with back pain opt for a firmer mattress to really promote a healthy spinal alignment during the night.
Shoulder Pain – Based on the graph above, this soft mattress is a great fit for back and side sleepers with shoulder pain. Either the standard Helix Moonlight or Helix Moonlight Luxe should do a nice job cushioning these sleepers’ shoulders to prevent stiffness and relieve pain. However, I’d steer stomach sleepers with shoulder pain to our roundup of the best mattresses for stomach sleepers instead.
Hip Pain – Similarly, either Moonlight model should do a great job relieving hip pain for side sleepers. I’d recommend either model to sleepers looking for gentler pressure relief in this area. However, stomach sleepers with hip pain will probably want to look for a firmer mattress to ensure spinal alignment while they are resting.
Helix Midnight Mattress Performance for Couples
Couples have unique mattress needs that solo sleepers don’t. To measure how well a mattress might work for folks who share a bed, I look at a few specific features. Read on below to learn more about those tests.
Motion Transfer
Motion transfer measures how much movement you can feel from one side of the bed when you’re resting on the other. This is something relevant to all sleepers, but it’s particularly crucial for anyone sharing their bed with a partner or a pet who might move around during the night.
Our motion transfer test involves dropping a 10-pound steel ball onto the mattress from three different heights (4 inches, 8 inches, and 12 inches). Then, we measure the type of disturbance each of these drops caused using a seismometer. You can see the standard Helix Moonlight’s results below.
These are pretty middling results, which suggests that you may be disturbed by motion transfer on the Helix Moonlight (unless you’re a super heavy sleeper, of course). Given that the Helix Moonlight doesn’t have a memory foam comfort layer (which goes a long way to isolate movement), this isn’t super surprising. Because of these results, the Helix Moonlight is not necessarily ideal for light sleepers who aren’t alone in their bed. The Helix Moonlight Luxe also got similar motion transfer results.
Sex
Though there is no one-size-fits-all best mattress for couples, partners generally want a bed that combines bounce and motion isolation. Bounce makes it easy to move around during sex, which is important to many couples, for obvious reasons. Both the Helix Moonlight and the Helix Moonlight Luxe have some nice bounce to them, so either model should work well for sex.
Cooling
Couples tend to prefer cooling mattresses because they usually overheat more quickly than solo sleepers during the night. Luckily, both of the Helix Moonlight mattresses sleep cool. Breathable pocketed coils really encourage airflow throughout these beds. However, the Helix Moonlight Luxe’s cooling Tencel cover gives it the edge over the standard Helix Moonlight in this category (more on this later).
Edge Support
Edge support refers to how well a mattress holds up on its sides as compared to its center. A mattress with good edge support can feel larger, which is great for anyone who shares a bed but still wants to spread out. Both Helix Moonlight models have pretty good edge support. All the mattresses in the Helix line have reinforced edges, adding to their overall durability. However, if you’re looking for an especially long-lasting mattress, check out our roundup of the best mattresses that won’t sag.
What is the Helix Moonlight Mattress Made Of?
The Helix Moonlight is a hybrid mattress, meaning it combines foam layers with pocketed coils for a soft, bouncy feel. Plus, a reinforced perimeter in the pocketed coil layer adds some solid edge support, so you shouldn’t slide off of this bed if you get too close to the sides.
Standard Helix Moonlight
Cover – The standard Helix Moonlight includes a Light Breathe Knit cover made entirely of polyester, so it has a nice, breathable feel to it. The increased airflow in this cover also helps to establish a cooling tone for the mattress.
Comfort Layer- Just below the cover is a comfort layer composed of Helix Dynamic Foam, which is a latex hybrid-foam alternative designed to contour to your body. This isn’t memory foam, so it won’t provide that “sinking” feeling some people love. Instead, it feels more like a gentle cushioning with a bit of lift and bounce. This foam is combined with High-Grade Helix Responsive Foam, which offsets this lifting feel with some nice body-contouring.
Transition Layer- This layer is also made of High-Grade Helix Responsive Foam, but the foam used in this layer has a lower IFD (Indentation Force Deflection), so it provides your body with more ergonomic support, while still maintaining that soft and comfortable feel overall.
Support Layer – This layer contains individually-wrapped coils for bounce and mobility. It also includes a layer of coils with a reinforced perimeter for stronger edge support, meaning you should be able to roll right to the edge of this bed without worrying about sliding off.
Base Layer – Beneath the coils, you’ll find a base layer built with DuraDense foam: A high density polyfoam that provides the Helix Moonlight with extra support and stability.
Helix Moonlight Luxe
Cover – The Helix Moonlight Luxe includes a Tencel cover. Tencel is made from eco-friendly eucalyptus fibers, and it offers even better temperature regulation than the standard Helix Moonlight’s Light Breathe Knit cover.
Pillow Top Layer – The Helix Moonlight Luxe’s pillow top layer is quilted with gel foam to provide some initial pressure relief and cooling upon laying down on this mattress.
Comfort Layer – Next up, the comfort layer combines a section of Helix Dynamic Foam and High-Grade Helix Responsive Foam. This is the same as the comfort layer included in the standard Helix Moonlight model.
Transition Layer – Below that is the same additional layer of High-Grade Responsive Foam that is found in the standard Helix Moonlight model.
Support Layer – Like the standard Helix Moonlight, the Helix Moonlight Luxe includes a layer of hundreds of individually wrapped coils. However, the coils in the Helix Moonlight Luxe have zoned support; they’re softer under the shoulders and firmer at the hips, helping to promote a straight spinal alignment during the night.
Base Layer – Last up is a layer of DuraDense foam to provide the mattress with support and stability, just like the standard Helix Moonlight model.
Helix Moonlight Unboxing and Off-Gassing
Like any bed-in-a-box mattress, the Helix Moonlight has an off-gassing and decompression period after unboxing. Your mattress should be decompressed and ready to sleep on after a few hours. Personally, I think all Helix mattresses have a strong off-gassing smell, but as long as you leave your new mattress in a well-ventilated room, any odor should dissipate after 24-48 hours. If you’re especially concerned about smell, avoid adding sheets to your new bed for a day or two to allow it to fully air out.

My Final Thoughts about the Helix Moonlight Mattress
The Helix Moonlight is a hybrid mattress that uses soft foams for pressure relief and pocketed coils for some added bounce and support. The gentle feel of this bed is ideal for side sleepers looking for added pressure relief, and the bouncy coils included in its constructed mean you shouldn’t feel stuck in this mattress while trying to change positions.
My favorite things about the Helix Moonlight mattress
I really like this mattress for side sleepers, as it didn’t put too much pressure on my shoulders or hips. While sleeping on my side, I felt like I sank into the Helix Moonlight just enough to keep my spine in a healthy, straight alignment. I also like that the Helix Moonlight’s hybrid build is super bouncy. This creates a really pleasant feel — and you can change positions without feeling “stuck” in this mattress.
My Helix Moonlight mattress complaints
I would not recommend this bed for stomach sleepers. The Helix Moonlight is one of the Helix brand’s softest models, and most stomach sleepers need a firm mattress to keeps their hips in line with their shoulders. With this mattress, you’re likely to find your hips sinking down into the bed, throwing your spine out of alignment and potentially causing some aches and pains down the line. I’d recommend these sleepers check out one of Helix’s firmer mattress models, like the Dawn or the Twilight. Helix also offers a sleep quiz on their site to help you choose which one of their models is best for your needs.

Lastly, I’d like to show how the Helix Moonlight compares to some of Helix’s other models. Each model comes in both a standard and a luxe version, but I’ll be comparing the standard versions below.
Helix Moonlight vs Helix Midnight
- Unlike the soft Moonlight, the Helix Midnight has a medium-firm feel. It’s a better option for sleepers who like a bit more support during the night.
- I believe that the Helix Midnight is a better option for back sleepers, since these sleepers tend to need a bit more support than side sleepers.
- The Moonlight and Midnight come at the same price point.

Bought our first Helix Dusk 5 years ago (a king for my husband and I) and it’s still amazing. No body impressions. Our large and small sizes and side and back sleep positions all do well on this mattress. We only buy Helix mattresses now, and have been gradually replacing our children’s and guest mattresses with Helix Dusk.

Bought our first Helix Dusk 5 years ago (a king for my husband and I) and it’s still amazing. No body impressions. Our large and small sizes and side and back sleep positions all do well on this mattress. We only buy Helix mattresses now, and have been gradually replacing our children’s and guest mattresses with Helix Dusk.

Christine R., Helix customerCheck out how the Moonlight performed on our star rating chart below.
Helix Moonlight Mattress
The Helix Moonlight is great for side sleepers thanks to its super soft, pressure relieving comfort. Its super plush feel that cradle and cushion sensitive pressure points make this an excellent choice for people who suffer from hip or shoulder pain.
