To be totally transparent, Helix runs mattress sales very often. And 20% off sitewide is its typical offer. So if you’re looking to save the absolute most, you may want to wait until Labor Day weekend, where we expect the brand to offer at least 25% off sitewide. But if you want a new bed sooner, this sale is still worth browsing. Here are five models our deals editors recommend checking out.
As we mentioned above, the Helix Midnight Luxe is our pick for the best mattress overall. It delivers targeted support for sleepers who change positions throughout the night. The bed also offers a wide array of features that accommodate people who switch between their back and side, hot sleepers and couples, including excellent motion isolation, good edge support, cooling materials and more.
Our Pick For The Best Value Mattress For Heavy People
Helix
Helix Plus Mattress (Queen)
Many mattresses only support people up to 250 pounds per side, which means plus-size sleepers aren’t getting the support and comfort they need. The Helix Plus is a firmer design that can support up to 500 pounds per side. One testers says, “The density of the top material is a slow melt, but if you can get used to this kind of mattress you won’t want any other sort.”
A Streamlined Version Of Our Favorite Mattress Overall
Helix
Helix Luxe Mattress (Queen)
Helix recommends this mattress for side sleepers. Its hybrid design includes a breathable top cover, dense memory foam and reinforced steel coils. You can also customize the mattress with an optional cooling pillow top and an extra support layer targeted at sleepers who frequently wake up with back pain, but both features cost extra.
A Kid-Friendly Option
Helix
Helix Kids Mattress (Twin)
If you’re looking for a kids’ mattress, this Helix bed comes in twin and full sizes. It’s another hybrid model with reinforced coils sandwiched by fiberglass-free memory foam. One of the best features of the mattress is its flippable design that allows it to grow with your child—one side has a firmer feel that’s ideal for kids ages two to seven and the other is slightly softer and designed for ages eight and up.
