Helix Plus Helix Sleep is one of those online brands that we’ve come to know and love. Every bed from this brand is different and targeted for specific sleeping preferences, and its core lineup consists of quality hybrid mattresses at an affordable price, but as a brand, they don’t stop there. Helix Sleep also offers Helix Plus beds, an ultra-supportive hybrid mattress lineup designed to support heavier people.
The Plus lineup is further split into three models -- Core, Luxe and Elite. Here we will take an in-depth look at the Helix Plus core model and who it might be the most ideal for. First impressions of the Helix Plus mattress In the past, we tested a few different iterations of this mattress.
The previous model to this one felt like a neutral hybrid bed with lots of support, but it was around a medium firmness on our scale. This new model now looks very similar to the other beds in Helix’s core lineup and also feels much firmer. Once it arrived at our space in a large box, we unboxed it, which took no time at all, and the process itself was really easy and fun to do.
Ripping off a bunch of plastic and cardboard kind of makes you feel like a kid again, tearing into your presents on Christmas morning. After we let the bed properly inflate and off-gas, it was ready to be tested. Upon feeling the bed, I immediately noticed the cooling pillow top to be cool to the touch and thought it made the bed look and feel more comfortable.
When I hopped, I thought the bed was fir.
