How we test mattresses
We conduct seven robust tests in our lab to capture objective data on the four areas of a mattress that most affect your sleep comfort: pressure relief, temperature regulation, motion isolation and edge support. We also sleep on a mattress for at least three weeks before subjectively rating it. This data is fed into a scoring system, along with feedback captured by our testing panel, to create an overall score. Read our full mattress methodology.
Especially as we’ve already tested the Helix Midnight Luxe Mattress, the brand’s firmer, more popular side-sleeper model, and awarded it high marks. We were eager to see how the softer Sunset Luxe compares to the Midnight Luxe in terms of comfort and support.
We also wanted to explore the key differences between the Sunset Luxe and its luxury rivals at other brands — from Saatva to DreamCloud — so we could decide whether or not the Sunset Luxe is worth the luxury price tag. After vigorous testing, here are our honest thoughts and thorough data on the Helix Sunset Luxe Mattress.
Helix Sunset Luxe Mattress review 2026: Price
- A queen typically costs between $1,919 and $1,824
- Shipping is free, as are returns and pickups
- Price includes a 120-night trial and lifetime warranty
Even though it’s never sold at its MSRP of $2,498, a queen-sized Helix Sunset Luxe still isn’t cheap and typically costs around $1,919 after a regular 20% discount. However, if you time your purchase right, you can save more.
A 20% discount is the default deal, but you can often find a 25% off Helix mattress sale during major federal holidays, such as the Memorial Day mattress sales, which reduces a queen down to $1,874. Also, whenever there’s a 25% off sale at Helix, you can often score an extra 2% off with promo code TOMS27 and buy a queen for $1,824 (saving you an extra $50).
This price is typical of the best luxury mattresses and a queen is in the same ballpark as that of its biggest (and plushest) rivals: the Saatva Classic (which is usually between $1,779 and $1,853 for a queen), the WinkBed (usually $1,799 for a queen), and the Leesa Legend Hybrid (typically $2,029 for a queen).
Yes, there are cheaper luxury hybrid mattresses out there, such as the cooling Bear Elite Hybrid (now $1,485 for a queen) and the $649-for-a-queen DreamCloud Classic Hybrid Mattress, but Helix Luxe mattresses are of a higher build quality than the mid-range DreamCloud.
Plus, there are some pretty good extras that reflect the bed’s durability and the brand’s confidence in their products: a 120-night sleep trial, free shipping and returns (something worth shouting about; a lot of brands charge a returns fee), and a lifetime warranty.
While brands such as Nectar and DreamCloud do have an edge over Helix with their 365-night sleep trials, 120 nights is still plenty of time to decide whether your mattress is for you. It typically takes 30 nights to break in a bed.
Saatva also offers a one-year trial and lifetime warranty, all the while boasting free white glove delivery (free installation and removal of your old mattress). Helix does offer in-home setup and removal but this service costs $219. However, we should point out that, unlike Helix, Saatva charges a $99 returns fee.
On a final note, it would be remiss of me not to mention the slight price increase this year (likely due to mattress tariffs and rising manufacturing costs). We track mattress sales every month and we saw a queen MSRP of $2,398.75 in March 2026; it was $2,498.66 by April.
Helix Sunset Luxe Mattress review 2026: Design
- 13.5″ tall with eight internal layers, all fiberglass-free
- Quilted Tencel pillow top is infused with eucalyptus
- Bottom cover’s handles make moving easier
The Helix Sunset Luxe is a relatively tall mattress, standing at 13.5 inches and containing six internal layers (eight, if you add the optional CoolForce and ErgoAlign layers) plus a puffy quilted top.
The design is the quintessential luxurious build found in the best hybrid mattresses. Like the all the best mattresses-in-a-box, the Sunset Luxe is fiberglass-free and uses CertiPUR-US certified foam.
The biggest layer is an 8-inch tier of individually wrapped coils, which are strengthened in the hip and lumbar (lower back) region for more durability and firmness. This adds extra lumbar support for keeping the hips upright, preventing lower back pain.
The rest of the mattress is mostly made up of different foams, including a cooling gel-infused comfort layer, a thick memory-foam support layer, a responsive middle layer, and a high-density foam bottom layer.
On the whole, the design is remarkably similar to the Helix Midnight Luxe, the key difference being the “Custom Firmness Level” — this foam layer is soft in the Sunset Luxe but medium-firm in the Midnight Luxe.
Meanwhile, the surface is quilted for a hotel pillow-top feel, and it’s made from sustainably-sourced eucalyptus-derived Tencel, a breathable fabric. For extra cooling, you can choose to upgrade to a GlacioTex cover (which costs $187 extra).

Helix Sunset Luxe Mattress review 2026: Sleep comfort
I’m a predominant side sleeper who loves an ultra-plush mattress, so it was only natural that I’d end up falling into the quilted lap of the Helix Sunset Luxe, a mattress that prides itself on a softer feel for side sleepers.
The Helix Sunset Luxe arrived in my home after I spent almost a year sleeping on the EGOHOME Black 12″ Memory Foam Mattress, a budget all-foam bed and one of the best cheap mattresses on the market.
While both mattress bill themselves as beds best suited for side sleepers, I feel that the Sunset Luxe’s plusher feel provides more concentrated comfort for side sleepers, even if it is slightly firmer than I expected (something I’ll dive into below.)
That said, as someone who moves between my back and my side, the EGOHOME’s firmer feel supports my lower back much better. True-blue side sleepers, however, will feel well supported and incredibly comfortable on the Helix Sunset Luxe.
Temperature control: 3.5 out of 5
Temperature regulation refers to how well a mattress can stay at a comfortable, neutral temperature during the night. This is a key area we explore when testing all mattresses, as a bed that’s plagued by built-up body heat can lead to disrupted sleep and night sweats.
While most mattresses will contain some form of temperature regulation, such as breathable materials and gel-infused foam, the best cooling mattresses feature specialist cooling tech.
The Sunset Luxe is not a dedicated cooling model, but Helix does showcase the bed’s air flow-enhancing Tencel cover, breathable coils, and cooling gel-infused foam.
To test the Sunset Luxe’s temperature regulation, we used a thermal imaging camera to measure body heat absorption and dissipation. To do this, I became a heat source, lying on the Sunset Luxe for 15 minutes.
After 15 minutes on the Sunset Luxe Mattress, the thermal imaging camera recorded a maximum temperature increase (MTI) of 12.4°F. This is a sizable amount of heat absorption (we generally rate any MTI above 9°F as “poor”), lowering its MTI score to 0.5 out of 5.
To put this MTI into perspective, other luxury hybrid mattresses absorbed significantly less heat over the same period: the Saatva Classic had an MTI of 6.3°F (see our Saatva Classic mattress review for the full test data) and the DreamCloud Classic had an MTI of 7.3°F. Neither are specialist cooling models.
However, we weren’t too hung up on this initial heat spike, as even our top-rated cooling model, the Bear Elite Hybrid, had an MTI of 10.5°F. The Bear Elite redeemed itself through its quick cooling rate, and we were eager to see if the Sunset Luxe would do the same.
It did. The Sunset Luxe shed the heat it collected exceptionally well within the first five minutes after I stepped off the bed, dissipating heat at a rate of 2.06°F per minute.
This cooling rate beats Saatva’s best-in-class 1.16°F per minute rate and even the Bear Elite’s ultra-cooling of 1.82°F per minute (although we should point out both had less heat to lose in the first place.) 15 minutes after I had stepped off, the mattress had already shed the vast majority of that warmth, with a 15-minute cooling rate of 0.74°F per minute.
Helix Sunset Luxe: Temperature regulation tests
Usually the lower the maximum temperature increase (MTI) and the faster the cooling rate (CR), the cooler you’ll sleep. But the Sunset Luxe has a different approach…
| Product | Value |
|---|---|
| Helix Sunset Luxe | 12.4 |
| Saatva Classic | 6.3 |
| DreamCloud Classic | 7.3 |
| Nectar Premier | 8.1 |
| Bear Elite Hybrid | 10.5 |
| Helix Midnight Luxe | 9 |
Perfect scores for both rapid (5/5) and full recovery (5/5) compensated for the first heat spike and balanced the final objective temperature regulation score of the Sunset Luxe. Overall, we gave it 3.8 out of 5, which we rate as “Good”.
In addition to objective lab-based testing, we also performed a subjective assessment that reflects how comfortable each tester felt temperature-wise.
Subjective feedback gave the Sunset Luxe a total score of 3.25 out of 5, indicating temperature regulation with “good thermal comfort” that feels “mostly neutral with minor temperature variations.”
The consensus was that although the mattress didn’t feel cool-to-the-touch, it “didn’t retain heat the more we lay on it”.
One tester, Ruth Jones, said: “The surface warmed gently and then stayed at a comfortable temperature.” She added:”When I switched sides or moved about, the heat didn’t immediately disappear, but I also didn’t feel any further heat retention, leading to a cozy feel.”
How the Helix Sunset Luxe regulates heat versus its rivals
This shows how effectively our top-rated mattresses for side sleepers absorbed, managed, and dissipated heat during our lab-based temperature regulation test.

| 30 | 1.3 | 0.3 | -0.3 | -1.1 | -1.2 | -0.6 |
As the lead tester, I slept on the Sunset Luxe longer than anyone else, and I never felt like I was overheating. Yes, I did occasionally feel some warmth in the bed’s surface, but it never became stuffy or or uncomfortable.
Combining our subjective score with our objective scoring, we can award the Sunset Luxe with an overall temperature regulation rating of 3.5 out of 5.
This rating indicates that most sleepers will maintain a comfortably neutral sleep temperature. However, chronic hot sleepers, who often experience night sweats and hot flashes, might find the Sunset Luxe traps some excess warmth. Look to either the Bear Elite or Saatva Classic for more advanced cooling.
Pressure relief: 3.2 out of 5
Pressure relief in a mattress refers to how well it cushions and supports key pressure points, which for side sleepers are hips, shoulders, and knees.
As the Helix Sunset Luxe prides itself on cushioning comfort for side sleepers, I expected good results here, and it didn’t disappoint. I was most comfortable when side sleeping, never feeling any resistance or pressure build-up in my shoulders or arms. From the first night, my hips have been cushioned well; there was no awkward break-in period.
It’s not the plushest mattress in the world (as I mention in the Firmness section below) but there’s no denying there’s plenty of contouring where your body exerts the most pressure on the mattress.
My fellow testers agreed — and then some. One tester even scored it 10 out of 10, stating that there was “no shoulder pressure or hip pressure” and “there was plenty of cushioning”.
Helix Sunset Luxe: pressure relief test results
The deeper the indentation and faster the response time, the better the ability of a mattress to relieve pressure
| Product | Value |
|---|---|
| Helix Sunset Luxe | 5.125 |
| Bear Elite Hybrid | 4.5 |
| DreamCloud Classic | 4.25 |
| Saatva Classic | 4.6 |
| Nectar Premier | 4.25 |
| Helix Midnight Luxe | 4.8 |
We also performed objective pressure relief tests, placing a 25kg weight (representing one-third of the average body weight of an American adult) at the hip and shoulder areas of the mattress. We then measure the indentation depth (ID) and recovery time (RT).
The Sunset Luxe had an average ID of 4.9 inches, providing the maximum “best-in-class” sinkage and an ideal balance of sinkage and support. This is unsurprising based on our subjective feedback (and the fact that the Sunset Luxe is specifically designed for side sleepers who need the deepest possible cradle for their shoulders and hips.)
As for the RT, it took an average of 11.2 seconds for the Sunset Luxe’s surface to snap back into its original shape, signaling a slow-response and “Fair” RT rating. The slow RT is likely due to the top layers of dense memory foam.
During the sleep experience, this means the Sunset Luxe will hold onto your body shape for roughly 11 seconds after you move. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing (it creates a cradling feel) but some of our team found it hard to change position on the Sunset Luxe due to the slow response time.
In comparison, the Saatva Classic also had a best-in-class ID (4.63 inches) but also had a lightning quick average RT of 0.1 seconds.
Combining subjective and objective feedback, we award the Sunset Luxe’s pressure relief a score of 4.07 out of 5.
Firmness
We rate a mattress’s firmness on a standardized scale of one to 10, with 10 being the firmest. Our mattress firmness rating is completely subjective as a variety of factors (such as body weight and primary sleep position) can influence your perception of firmness.
That’s why we asked each member of our diverse testing panel to rank the firmness of the Sunset Luxe on the standardized scale. We then create a collective rating based on everyone’s feedback.
As a side sleeper under 130lbs, I was expecting something plusher, as Helix describes the Sunset Luxe as having a 2/10 firmness and a “pillowy and cushioned” soft feel. I awarded it a firmness rating of 6/10.
However, a stomach-sleeping tester, who is in the 130lbs to 230lbs weight category and prefers a firm bed for more support, felt it was much softer and gave the bed a 4/10.
Overall, we gave the mattress a collective 5 out of 10 firmness rating, just one point softer than the medium-firm Midnight Luxe. This puts the Sunset Luxe smack bang in the middle of the medium firmness category.
This medium rating should provide great comfort and cushioning for most side sleepers, but lightweight side sleepers who expect the marshmallow-soft 2/10 firmness rating will be disappointed.
Motion isolation: 4 out of 5
Image 1 of 2
Motion isolation is an important feature for bed sharers, as it refers to how well a mattress stops your restless co-sleeper’s movements (such as wriggling or getting in and out of bed) from traveling to your side of the bed and disrupting your sleep.
As hybrid mattresses like the Sunset Luxe contain springy coils, they rarely offer the same superb motion isolation as, say, an all-foam bed with slow-moving memory foam. However, the Sunset Luxe (and most mattresses nowadays) features coils individually wrapped in fabric to limit motion transfer.
To see if the Sunset Luxe can actually dampen movement effectively we ran two tests: a subjective assessment with testers acting as co-sleepers and a lab-based objective test with a 5kg slam ball and an accelerometer.
In our subjective tests, my fellow testers and I evaluated the impact of each other’s movements. We all consider ourselves light sleepers.
Helix Sunset Luxe: motion isolation results
The lower the initial impact of the ball, the better the mattress is at dampening the original force, meaning there’s less motion to transfer
| Product | Value |
|---|---|
| Helix Sunset Luxe | 5.785 |
| Bear Elite Hybrid | 8.976 |
| DreamCloud Classic | 7.965 |
| Saatva Classic | 7.863 |
| Nectar Premier | 7.961 |
| Helix Midnight Luxe | 8.976 |
| Product | Value |
|---|---|
| Helix Sunset Luxe | 4.831 |
| Bear Elite Hybrid | 3.504 |
| DreamCloud Classic | 3.22 |
| Saatva Classic | 1.703 |
| Nectar Premier | 2.546 |
| Helix Midnight Luxe | 3.504 |
One tester, Ruth, said that she felt the “least disturbance when lying on my side.” Good news, as the Sunset Luxe is intended for side sleepers. While she “definitely noticed” high-force movements (such as tossing and turning) she admitted that she likely wouldn’t have woken up “while in deep sleep”.
I, on the other hand, said I would have “100% woken up” during high-force movements, but low-force movements were “not enough to cause real disturbance, and they probably wouldn’t wake me up.”
After combining all testers’ feedback, we came up with a subjective motion isolation score of 3 out of 10, indicating “noticeable but tolerable perceived motion”.
For for our objective lab-based tests, we dropped a 5kg slam ball on one side of the Sunset Luxe and measured its impact absorption via an accelerometer on the other. The initial impact average (IIA) was 5.785 m/s², which is an excellent measurement according to our IIA scoring rubric.
This low IIA shows how great the Sunset Luxe is at absorbing the initial “thud” of an impact. The only bed we’ve ever tested with a lower IIA was the all-foam, ultra-firm Siena Signature at 5.527 m/s2. Meanwhile, the only hybrid mattress we’ve tested that comes close to this IIA rate was the Helix Midnight Luxe at 7.45 m/s2.
However, the Sunset Luxe loses points for motion isolation due to its average decay rate (in other words, how long the vibrations linger) of 4.831 seconds. This decay rate is pretty poor, especially when you consider that the Saatva Classic took 1.703 seconds.
Overall, we rate the motion isolation as “Good”, with an excellent initial impact absorption that’s let down by slow motion-dampening speed. This means while even heavy movements won’t cause a big jolt, you might notice that even a few seconds after your partner stops shuffling, the springs are still vibrating.
Edge support: 4 out of 5
Image 1 of 3
Edge support refers to how sturdy the edges of your mattress are. It affects how easy it is to sit on the edge of the bed and get in and out — especially important for those with limited mobility — plus how much usable sleeping space you have, which impacts couples and those with larger builds.
In the Sunset Luxe, coils are reinforced along the perimeter of the bed to provide “advanced edge support”. To test how advanced it really is, we placed a 25kg weight 3 inches away from the edge of the mattress and measured how far it sank.
After five minutes, the average indentation of the weight was 5.687 inches, which we rate as “Fair.” We chalk this sinkage up to the Sunset’s more plush, pressure-relieving foam layers. The sink was slightly deeper at the foot of the bed (5.75 inches) than at the sides (5.625 inches), but a less supportive foot-of-the-bed won’t affect the amount of sleep space you have.
To measure amount of available sleep space, we also performed a roll-off test. This measures how close to the edge a person can get before rolling off, and the Sunset Luxe performed significantly well — the roll-off distance (ROD) of 0 indicated no loss of sleep space, scoring a perfect 5 out of 5.
However, you might find sitting on the edge less comfortable than lying. Our tests indicate you’ll sink through the foam layers before finding support from the coils beneath, which can create an unstable feeling when getting in and out of bed.
While the score from the 25kg weight test drags it down, the final edge support score is 3 out of 5, with a rating of “Good”. This puts the Sunset Luxe in the same category as the DreamCloud Classic, but beaten by the Saatva Classic (“Best-in-class”) or Nectar Classic (“Very Good”).
Helix Sunset Luxe Mattress review 2026: User reviews
- Rated 4.6/5 stars from over 1,290 Helix customers
- The brand is rated 4.6/5 from 207 consumers at Trust Pilot
- Users praise its comfort and support for side sleepers
On the brand’s website, the Helix Sunset Luxe has an overall rating of 4.6 stars from over 1,298 reviews (back in 2024 during our Helix Sunset Luxe mattress hands-on review, the mattress had an overall rating 4.4 stars from 1,100 ). This is an excellent score, and customers frequently praise the comfort and support it offers while side sleeping.
While negative reviews are in the minority, some reviewers found it either too firm or too plush. Some were disappointed that it had a more “medium” feel than the plushness they were expecting, while others felt it was too soft for back and stomach sleeping. (In all fairness, Helix clearly state this mattress is designed specially for side sleepers.)
As for Helix’s reputability, you can look on review platform TrustPilot website for customer feedback. At the time of writing, Helix has an overall “Excellent” rating of 4.6 out of 5 stars from a total of 207 reviews. However, this score is based on Helix as a brand, not solely on customers’ experiences with the Helix Sunset Luxe.
Helix Sunset Luxe Mattress review 2026: Should you buy it?
The Helix Sunset Luxe Mattress is a bed for side sleepers through and through. While stomach and front sleepers need not apply, there’s little doubt that the Sunset Luxe supplies the ample amount of cushioning pressure relief found only in the best mattresses for side sleepers.
It faired well in our motion isolation and edge support tests, making it a good choice for couples. However, it’s not suitable for couples of different sleep styles and / or significantly different body weights. While the side sleeper in your partnership might be happy, the back sleeper will be fighting sinking hips (the Midnight Luxe is a better Helix mattress in this scenario.)
As for temperature regulation, we felt that the Helix Sunset Luxe maintained a comfortable neutral temperature rather than a cooling surface, and most sleepers (bar those who sleep chronically hot) shouldn’t feel stuffy or sweaty while resting on its breathable Tencel surface.
While it is a luxury spend (a queen is $1,824 during it’s biggest sales), we scored it high in terms of value for money; it offers generous extras (including a lifetime warranty), has glowing customer ratings, and has a high-quality luxurious design.
On the whole, the Helix Sunset Luxe overlooks a lot of sleepers — from back and front sleepers to hot sleepers — but in doing so it prioritizes supplying side sleepers with cradling comfort. In this area, it’s hard to find fault.
Helix Sunset Luxe Mattress review 2026: Alternatives to consider
If you want the side-sleeper comfort of Sunset Luxe but need more choice, then it may be a good idea to check out the our WinkBed mattress review. The euro-pillow top luxury hybrid mattress comes in a choice of three different firmness levels: Softer, Luxury Firm, and Firmer. Plus, there’s an option for those with heavier bodies who need a higher weight capacity and firmer support. At a regular price of $1,799 for a queen, you’re looking at a similar premium cost to the Sunset Luxe, and the exact same benefits, too.
2. EGOHOME Black 12″ Mattress
If you’re a side sleeper looking for a cheaper alternative to the Sunset Luxe mattress, check out my EGOHOME Black 12″ Memory Foam Mattress review. While you won’t get the same hybrid, quilted-top luxury design as the Sunset Luxe, this budget bed is regularly just $369.99 for a queen, which makes it a steal when you consider how well it supports all sleep positions.
3. Brooklyn Bedding CopperFlex Pro Hybrid mattress
If you want a luxury hybrid mattress for side sleepers with more cooling powers and a mid-range price, then read our Brooklyn Bedding CopperFlex Pro Hybrid mattress review. This cooling copper-infused mattress is always under $1,000 for a queen, and testers called its medium-firm feel “excellent for side sleepers” but will still “suit most sleeping styles”.
