Frequently Asked Questions

What are the benefits of the Dawn mattress?

Scientifically designed to give back & stomach sleepers who love a firm mattress an excellent night of sleep. It aligns the spine & hips to reduce sagging and pain when you wake up, and includes Helix's exclusive SupremeSupport 2.5 Memory Foam, with 2.5x more cushioning than other mattresses, to help you relax and recharge.

Why is the Dawn the best mattress for side-sleepers and sleepers who toss and turn?

The Dawn mattress is designed with exclusive, ultra-dense memory foam layers that align the spine and hips, which can sag too far into the mattress when you sleep on your front or back. It is comfortable and soft to help provide a great night’s sleep without lower back pain.

How does the GlacioTex Cooling Cover work?

The GlacioTex Cooling Cover is a great option for people who like that feeling of crisp, cool sheets when they get into bed each night. Made from Helix's cutting-edge, heat conductive fabric, the GlacioTex Cooling Cover draws heat away from the surface of the mattress for a cool-to-the-touch feel — while also feeling soft and comfortable beneath you.

What's the difference between the Dawn and Dawn Luxe?

The Dawn mattress is great if you’re looking for a superior mattress at a great price, including deluxe foams for comfort and cooling options. But the Dawn Luxe offers the high quality of the Core mattress, PLUS enhanced lumbar support and more advanced cooling & support options.

Does this mattress require a box spring, foundation, or a particular base?

A support system for your mattress is required. It is recommended to use the Helix Foundation to provide correct support and avoid sagging over time. If you prefer to use something different, it is recommended to use a bunkie board with a box spring, or any support system with a firm, flat surface and thick slats no wider than 5.5 inches apart, which can cause sagging and void your warranty.

Does the Dawn mattress have any safety certifications?

The Dawn mattress, like every Helix mattress, is assembled in their Arizona facility, allowing Helix to ensure the highest quality every single time. Helix mattresses are GREENGUARD Gold Certified and made with CertiPUR-US certified foams, which guarantees they are made without any harmful chemicals including ozone depleters, PBDE flame retardants, mercury, lead, heavy metals, formaldehyde, and have extremely low impact on indoor air quality.

Reviews

Better sleep no more back aches

"I love my mattress. I don't wake up with a back ache and we're actually sleeping really well now. I didn't want to leave a review until I had slipped on it for a couple of months. I don't like reviewing things unless I've tried them out for a while but I'm very satisfied."

— Maria R. (5/5)

I have scoliosis and two

"I have scoliosis and two rods in my back. I also have a horrible habit of sleeping on my stomach. This bed finally gave me the support I need for my hips while I sleep on my stomach and I don’t ever remember falling asleep. Usually I remember tossing and turning. Overall happy but the price hurt my wallet."

— Izzabell F. (4/5)

Perfect Firmness

Back ache

"I sleep fine through the night, however in the morning I seem to have a back ache."

— Terry E. (5/5)

It has been around 2

"It has been around 2 months and the bed already showing signs of wear and indented where both of us sleep and get in and out of bed. We are not large people. Has a noticeable "hill" in the middle. Disappointed for the price was expecting more."

— Ryan W. (2/5)

Great for stomach sleepers

"Had to return a mattress from another company because it wasn't firm enough for my stomach sleeping, but this one is perfect!"

— Lorenzo O. (5/5)
