Features
Motion Isolation
The combination of memory foam layers and individually wrapped coils minimizes motion transfer, making it a favorable choice for couples.
Pressure Relief
The plush Euro-top and adaptive foam layers contour to the body’s curves, providing excellent pressure relief, beneficial for individuals with joint pain or those prone to pressure buildup.
Body Temperature Regulation
The Tencel cover, combined with the airflow-promoting coil system, facilitates effective temperature regulation, making the Helix Elite suitable for hot sleepers.
Edge Support
Reinforced edges provided by the sturdy coil system allow sleepers to utilize the full mattress surface without experiencing significant sagging, offering a stable and consistent feel across the entire bed.
Off-Gassing
Hybrid mattresses fair better in off-gassing than their foam counterparts. This is because the coil structure allows the air to circulate freely and prevents it from getting trapped. As with all other new mattresses the Helix mattresses also have a certain amount of odor when originally unpacked. This is a very faint smell and dissipates within a few hours.
