Helix Plus Review

Rating: 6.8
Verified
Buy Helix
The Helix Plus mattress is a 12-inch hybrid mattress designed for plus-sized sleepers, supporting up to 500 lbs per side. It features poly-foam and pocketed coils, providing minimal sinkage and high bounce, making it suitable for heavier back or stomach sleepers who prefer a firm feel. The mattress is rated extra firm (9/10) and excels in cooling, edge support, and bounce, but has high motion transfer, limited pressure relief, and a longer off-gassing period. It has a fast response time and a floating sensation due to minimal sinkage. The mattress comes with a 100-night trial and a 10-year warranty.
