combination sleepers<\/a><\/strong>. These folks should enjoy the combination of pressure relief and bounce, ensuring pain-free sleep without feeling \u201cstuck\u201d in this bed.<\/p>\n\n\n\nDurability:<\/b> <\/span>In my opinion, the Helix Dusk mattress strikes a good balance between comfort, support, and durability. Since this mattress is a little softer than medium-firm (6 out of 10), heavier sleepers might experience sagging sooner than lightweight and average sleepers on this bed. However, for most sleepers, I think the Helix Dusk's firm construction and resilient foam layers should hold up well for many years with minimal sagging, even past the 10-year mark.<\/p>\n\n\n\nAll in all, I think this could be a great all-purpose bed for a wide range of sleeping positions<\/strong>. It\u2019s firm, but not too firm; soft, but not too soft, striking a satisfying balance. Back-and-side combination sleepers could be particularly well-suited to the Helix Midnight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Helix Twilight<\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
[airtable type=\"block\" layout=\"skim\" id=\"75\"]<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\nBuilt with layers of Copper Gel Memory Foam and High-Grade Helix Responsive Foam, the Helix Twilight is a firm bed for folks who still need some pressure relief around their shoulders and lower back. This is the second-firmest mattress in the standard Helix line, so it should work best for back and stomach sleepers.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\nConstruction Specs:<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n- Comfort layer \u2013<\/b> As we\u2019ve seen in some of the other models listed here, the Helix Twilight kicks things off with a layer of Copper Gel Memory Foam, which has a slow response<\/strong> to pressure, allowing the sleeper to really \u201csink in\u201d for some cushiony relief. <\/span>Once again, this memory foam is combined with High-Grade Helix Responsive Foam, which makes sure that you won\u2019t \u201csink\u201d too far into this bed.<\/li>
- Transition layer \u2013<\/b> You guessed it \u2014 this layer is made with the same High-Grade Helix Responsive Foam with a lower IFD (Indentation Force Deflection) as the other models in this line. This inclusion ensures that there\u2019s enough material between the comfort layer and the individually pocketed coils<\/span> in this mattress.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Firmness:<\/b> 7\/10 on the firmness scale. When compared to the industry standard of 6.5 for medium firmness, this bed is on the firmer side.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\nMotion Transfer:<\/b> This mattress isolates motion fairly well, thanks to its top layer of Copper Gel Memory Foam. This material works to actively absorb and dissipate movement<\/strong> across the structure<\/span> of this bed.<\/p>\n\n\n\nPressure Relief:<\/b> While the Copper Gel Memory Foam top layer does provide a bit of cushioning at the shoulders, I think this bed provides the most pressure relief around the hips and lower back.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\nDurability:<\/strong> I think the Helix Twilight stands out in the brand's lineup of mattresses in terms of durability. Its firmer feel (7 out of 10 on the firmness scale) and supportive construction should help it maintain its structure and prevent sagging over time. The Twilight mattress should also hold up better for heavier sleepers, thanks to its firmer design. For most sleepers, I think this mattress will hold up well beyond the 3 and 10-year mark.<\/p>\n\n\n\nI\u2019d recommend the Helix Twilight for <\/span>back, stomach, and combination sleepers<\/b>. These folks should enjoy this bed\u2019s firmness and bounce, which work to position the sleeper more \u201con top\u201d of the bed than \u201cin\u201d it.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Helix Dawn<\/b><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
[airtable type=\"block\" layout=\"skim\" id=\"64\"]<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\nThe Helix Dawn is the firmest bed in the Helix line, as it is made with layers of bouncy Dynamic Foam, sturdy High-Grade Helix Responsive Foam, and supportive pocketed coils.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\nConstruction Specs:<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n- Comfort layer \u2013<\/b> This layer combines Helix Dynamic Foam and High-Grade Helix Responsive Foam. The Helix Dynamic Foam creates the feeling of sleeping \u201con top\u201d of this bed, rather than \u201csinking\u201d into it. However, this lift is counteracted by the High-Grade Helix Responsive Foam, which provides enough pressure relief for the sleeper to stay comfortable during the night.<\/span><\/li>
- Transition layer \u2013<\/b> Finally, there is another layer of lower IFD (Indentation Force Deflection)<\/span><\/span> High-Grade Helix Responsive Foam, which provides strong ergonomic support and cushioning, helping to relieve pressure around the hips and shoulders.<\/span><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Firmness:<\/b> 7.5\/10 on the firmness scale. When compared to the industry standard of 6.5 for medium firmness, it\u2019s clear that this bed is on the firm side.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\nMotion Transfer:<\/b> This bed doesn\u2019t isolate motion super-well, so you might be able to feel your partner\u2019s movements during the night. Of all the Helix mattresses, the Helix Dawn is both the firmest<\/strong> and the bounciest<\/strong>, so it makes sense that it wouldn\u2019t have the best motion isolation.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\nPressure Relief:<\/b> I felt the most pressure relief when I was lying on my back and stomach. In both positions, I could feel the top layers of foam lifting my hips<\/strong> in alignment with my shoulders for some nice pressure relief across my spine.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\nDurability:<\/strong> I think the Helix Dawn is built to last, thanks to its higher firmness score (7.5 out of 10) and excellent support. With strong, responsive layers that provide substantial lift and edge support, I don't think this mattress will show signs of sagging or wear for many years, making it a great option for those seeking long-term durability. Around the 3-year mark, folks should expect it to maintain its firm, supportive feel. After 10 years, sleepers should still expect excellent spinal alignment and little to no indentations, making it a solid investment for the long haul.<\/p>\n\n\n\nGiven how bouncy, firm, and supportive the Helix Dawn is, I\u2019d recommend it to most <\/span>back and stomach sleepers<\/a><\/b>. These folks should benefit from this bed\u2019s strong lift, situating the sleeper squarely on top of this mattress.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
