Frequently Asked Questions

Does the Sunset Luxe require a box spring, foundation, or a particular base?

A support system for your mattress is required. We recommend the Helix Foundation to provide correct support and avoid sagging over time. If you prefer to use something different, we recommend using 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.

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

The Helix Sunset Luxe mattress is designed with premium, ultra-dense memory foam layers that cradle the hips and shoulders, which often experience pressure when we sleep on our sides or we toss and turn. This targeted support provides essential relief without allowing your body to sink too far into the body of the mattress. The addition of zoned lumbar support in the Helix Sunset Luxe ensures your hips never sag and your spine remains aligned while you sleep, even as you sink into its pillowy soft surface.

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 are the benefits of the Sunset Luxe mattress?

The Sunset Luxe is a premium memory foam mattress designed with Helix's softest feel specifically for side sleepers and those who toss and turn. It includes upgrades like a plush pillow top, an extra foam comfort layer in the body of the mattress, and zoned lumbar support along with a fully reinforced perimeter in the base coils. Choose between the ultra breathable TENCEL™ cover or the GlacioTex™ Cooling Cover to enjoy enhanced cooling while you sleep.

What's the difference between the Sunset Luxe and Sunset Elite?

The Luxe collection has long been Helix's most popular line of mattresses because of the way each Luxe mattress includes carefully considered upgrades when compared with the Helix Core Collection. The Helix Elite Collection, takes those upgrades to the next level for truly unmatched luxury. The Sunset Elite is 15 inches tall and includes a 2-inch plush pillow top and a micro coil comfort layer. It is made with an innovative two-part design that make shipping and setup easier than ever before.

Does the Sunset Luxe mattress have any safety certifications?

The Sunset Luxe mattress, like every Helix mattress, is assembled in their Arizona facility, allowing them 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

Extremely happy

"Literally slept better the first night we had it. Our old mattress was horrible so how sly anything would have been an improvement but still think this mattress was a great choice especially for the price. I was having daily back pain and the chiropractor kept telling me it was probably my mattress, the pain went away within a couple days and now I’m saving money by not having to see the chiropractor every week"

— Anthony M. (5/5)

Midnight to Sunset bliss

"The Sunset is by far the best mattress I have an ever slept on. I had originally ordered a Midnight after reading reviews. I did not sleep well on the midnight and exchanged it for the Sunset. If you are a side sleeper this is your mattress. Not sure why they market the Midnight for a side sleeper. Exchange was smooth and Helix stands behind their product and the exchange process."

— James K. (5/5)

No lower back support

"I never had lower back pain in my life but now have constant problems after sleeping on this mattress for about a month. I'm a side sleeper and weigh less than 130 pounds and yet this mattress still didn't provide sufficient support. I switched to the Midnight Luxe but it's too early to say whether that will make a difference."

— Kai L. (2/5)

Changed my life

"I got this bed never having been able to choose a bed for my needs before. After having a baby, I've had chronic back pain. Waking up every morning and having to sit on a hearing pad with debilitating pain. This mattress has changed everything! I now wake up with no pain and feeling like I've actually had a good night's rest! I love softer beds with support and mostly sleep on my side and back. It's definitely worth trying!"

— Jessica S. (5/5)

Sleeping on a cloud

"This bed is so comfortable. I can't wait to go to bed every night. I only wish I had opted for the cooling mattress topper. Customer service was amazing. They fixed my issue quickly and were super sweet. 10/10 highly recommend"

— Shannon D. (5/5)

Honeybadger Don’t Care!

"I thought it’d be a little more plush, but it’s still a very good mattress. I’m a side sleeper, and I’d started having shoulder pain before purchasing the Sunset Luxe. I’ve not had any issues since."

— Gabriel L. (5/5)

Buy the Sunset Luxe!!

"The helix sunset luxe is an incredible bed. We tried the midnight luxe first because of the popularity and it was way too firm for us. We were skeptical about helix after this, but the return process through our sleep warranty was smooth and we were able to swap it out for a Sunset luxe and it’s the best bed we’ve ever owned. Perfect blend of soft, pillow top laying on a cloud feel with great support. My wife who likes very firm beds also fell in love with this one (I like softer beds). Highly Recommend this!"

— Stephen S. (5/5)

The Best Sleep!

"Overall, this mattress has genuinely improved my sleep quality and how I feel during the day. It’s one of those purchases you don’t regret because you notice the benefits every single morning. If you’re on the fence, it’s absolutely worth it!"

— Nicole G. (5/5)

Amazing Customer Service. Great Quality Mattress

"I had the Midnight Luxe for a while and it was just a little too firm for me. Helix sent me a free plush topper, which helped, but over time as everything broke in more it still wasn't quite right. At that point I was past my sleep trial, so I didn't expect much when I emailed them. They ended up sending me a completely different mattress, the Sunset Luxe, for free. I couldn't believe it. The return process was super easy, and I really like my new mattress. Helix rates the Midnight Luxe as a 6 and the Sunset Luxe as a 3 on their Firmness Scale, so I was worried the Sunset would be really soft — but it's not. In my experience it's only about 1 to 1. 5 points softer than the Midnight Luxe. It was not the huge overcorrection I was afraid of. The customer service alone makes me want to recommend them to everyone. Would absolutely buy from Helix again."

— Sarah S. (5/5)

Above and beyond our expectations!

"Sleeping on a cloud. That was our hopes and our hopes came true. Our last bed was a sealy posturepedic, but we found it was too stiff for our weight. My wife and I are 170 lbs, side sleepers, so we’ve wanted to go with a softer mattress so our spine could stay aligned. We are pleased that the Helix Sunset has given us what we’d hoped for. It’s been a huge upgrade for us. The quality is luxurious. We received our bed in less than a week. We are in NY. I thought that was really impressive. Set up was easy, beats getting a mattress from a box store. I was also surprised that the manufacture smell went away within hours, because I figured being sealed in plastic would make take a while to air out. We slept on the bed the first day about 6 hours after unboxing. The bed is really well made, no weak spots, super uniform. I don’t feel like I’m in a hole when my wife is cuddling me. We are 3 months in and very pleased. Our sleep is great. Thank you Helix!"

— Geoffrey B. (5/5)
