The Happy with Helix Guarantee

Meet The Helix Sunset Elite

The ultimate investment in better sleep for side-sleepers who love a medium-feel mattress with top-of-the-line comfort.

Designed for optimal sleep with extra contouring to the hips and shoulders for best-in-class support for side-sleepers.

Advanced lumbar support: the ErgoAlign Contour Layer helps alleviate tightness and discomfort.

Innovative GlacioTex Cooling Cover feels instantly cool when you get into bed, for that crisp-sheets feeling.

Peaceful nights for you and your partner thanks to a microcoil comfort layer that erases any shifts or stirrings.

A deeply comfortable, restorative rest with our house-designed SupremeSupport 7.0 Memory Foam for 7x the tension-relieving comfort.

Towers above the rest with a 15” build for a truly lavish feeling when you get into bed each night.

Guaranteed to feel perfect — if you’re not completely satisfied, we’ll help calibrate it with comfort inserts or a seamless exchange.

Assembled in Arizona where we pour our own foams, make our own coils, and hand-assemble every mattress.

How Does It Feel?

Soft Feel:

How does the GlacioTex Cooling Cover work?

If you sleep hot, the GlacioTex Cooling Cover is a great option to help cool down your bed. Made from our cutting-edge, heat conductive fabric, the GlacioTex Cooling Cover draws heat away from the surface of the mattress for a cool-to-the-touch, crisp sheets feeling when you get into bed each night, while also feeling soft and comfortable beneath you.

Why is the Sunset Elite the best mattress for side sleepers?

The Helix Sunset Elite is our highest-end mattress for side sleepers who love a soft mattress and want the best of the best for their sleep. Not only is it designed by sleep scientists with extra contouring to the hips and shoulders, it also includes our exclusive SupremeSupport 7.0 Ultra-Dense Memory Foam, made in-house at our Arizona facility with an extremely rare 7 lb. density for unmatched comfort that calms and relaxes the body. A layer of cradling microcoils provides stability, support, and enhanced motion isolation so couples don’t wake each other in the night. Elite mattresses always include our GlacioTex Cooling Cover, our cutting-edge heat conductive fabric that draws heat away from the body for a crisp, cool feeling when you get into bed, and our ErgoAlign Contour Layer, a segment of extra-dense foam under the hips so they cant sag and put pressure on your lower back.Learn more.

Does this mattress require a box spring, foundation, or a particular base?

Yes, you need a support system under your mattress. We offer a few options that properly support your mattress: the Foundation, Adjustable Base, and Bed Frame. 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.

How do I choose a support base?

Because this is a hybrid mattress, it's important to provide your mattress with the right support beneath its foam layers. Using your new mattress without the proper support can impact the way it feels while you sleep and in some cases can even void your mattress warranty. As you decide between different support bases, it can be helpful to consider: 

  • How tall do you want your bed to be?

  • How much under bed space are you hoping for? 

  • How will your support base look next to the rest of your bedroom furniture?
