Helix Sleep makes hybrid, bed-in-a-box mattresses to suit any body type. Their line includes six standard models and six Luxe models (as well as a Plus model made specifically for heavy people). You can find out about all of these models in our Helix mattress review and Helix Luxe mattress review. But if you’re interested in the Helix Sunset, the brand’s softest model, or the Helix Sunset Luxe, Helix’s luxury version of this mattress, you’re in the right place.
In this review, I’ll tell you more about both Sunset models, let you know which sleepers I’d recommend them to, and put them through some tests. Stay tuned to find out if one of these soft, memory foam hybrids could work for you, or skip down to my review summary to save time.

Is the Helix Sunset a Good Mattress for You?
Before I get into all the details, I want to give you a general overview of which sleepers the Helix Sunset and Helix Sunset Luxe might work best for. The Helix Sunset Luxe is very similar to the standard Helix Sunset model, but it’s two inches thicker, has five layers in its construction (the standard Sunset model only four five), uses zoned support (more on that below), and includes a more cooling cover than the standard Sunset model offers. However, both models should work well for similar sleepers.
Who I recommend the Helix Sunset mattress for
- Both of these mattresses are really soft, which makes them great options for side sleepers looking for a soft, contouring feel to their bed.
- Thanks to their memory foam layers, the Helix Sunset models also provide the typical cushiony, sinking feeling that memory foam fans really enjoy.
- If you struggle with joint pain, the Helix Sunset line could be a great solution for you. These soft beds offer plenty of relief for sensitive pressure points and joints.
Who I don’t recommend the Helix Sunset mattress for
- These beds are not great options for strict stomach sleepers because of how soft they feel. I’d recommend that these folks check out our roundup of the best mattresses for stomach sleepers, or opt for a firmer Helix model.
- Couples might find that they’re too easily disturbed by their partners’ movements while sleeping on the standard Helix Sunset mattress, which doesn’t offer much motion isolation. The thicker Sunset Luxe model is the better option for these sleepers, or these customers can take a look at our roundup of the best mattresses for couples.
- Heavy sleepers (those over 250 pounds) most likely won’t get the durability or support they need from the soft Helix Sunset mattress, whether that be the standard model or the Luxe. These sleepers will likely sleep much better with a higher-density mattress. I’d recommend that heavy sleepers check out the Helix Plus, or consider one of the beds on our roundup of the best mattresses for heavy people.
How Firm is the Helix Sunset Mattress?
Next, let’s get into what you really want to know before buying a new mattress: how it feels. Keep in mind that feel is subjective, and it can be influenced by your body weight, shape, and preferred sleeping position. For reference, I’m around 5’10” and 190 pounds, and I sleep on my stomach. So, my firmness rating might vary a little from your own.
I tested the Helix Sunset and the Helix Sunset Luxe and thought they felt quite similar to each other. I gave both of these beds a firmness rating of 5.5 out of 10 on our firmness scale. For comparison, the industry standard for medium-firm bed is a 6.5 out of 10, which means that both of these beds are considered soft mattresses.
The standard Helix Sunset model has a typical memory foam feel that should work well for back and side sleepers. It excels at being pressure-relieving around the joints, especially the shoulders, hips, and knees. Generally speaking, I would not recommend this mattress for stomach sleepers like myself — most stomach sleepers need a more supportive mattress to keep their spine safely and comfortably aligned during the night.
Like the standard Sunset, the Sunset Luxe had a soft, contouring feel. However, the zoned lumbar support system included in its construction offered a bit of extra support around my hips and lower back. Because of this, back sleepers who struggle with back pain might prefer to sleep on the Sunset Luxe model. The Luxe is also a bit thicker than the standard, thanks to its cover and additional Premium Cooling Pillow Top, so if you prefer an extra-luxurious feel to your mattress, the Luxe is the way to go.

The Helix Sunset is the brand's softest model, which makes it a great option for side sleepers looking for a plush, contouring feel. Its memory foam layer adds some nice sinkage and pressure relief as well.

Helix Sunset Mattress Performance
Firmness is an important factor to consider when selecting a mattress, but it’s not everything. We also conducted some additional tests to see how the Helix Sunset performs for several different sleeper types. You’ll see the results of the standard model’s tests in the graphics below.
Testing the Helix Sunset Mattress in Different Sleeping Positions
A mattress will feel different to you depending on your body weight and preferred sleeping position. Below, we’ve broken down how the Helix Sunset will perform for different sleepers.
Is the Helix Sunset a Good Mattress for Light Sleepers (Under 130 pounds)?
- Light Back Sleepers – Lightweight back sleepers should really like both Sunset models. These sleepers should get plenty of contouring around their lower back on both of these beds.
- Light Side Sleepers – Both the standard Sunset and the Sunset Luxe are also good fits for light side sleepers. These beds should offer plenty of sinkage and pressure relief for these folks.
- Light Stomach Sleepers – We suggest that these sleepers choose a firmer mattress model, like the Helix Dawn, to ensure they’re getting proper lumbar support during the night.
Is the Helix Sunset a Good Mattress for Average Weight Sleepers (130 – 250 pounds)?
- Average Weight Back Sleepers – Both Sunset models are good picks for these sleepers, as their foam layers help to alleviate tension around the lumbar region.
- Average Weight Side Sleepers – These sleepers should really like both Sunset models. Customers should get plenty of cushioning around sensitive joints while sleeping on these beds.
- Average Weight Stomach Sleepers – Because both Sunset models feel so soft and plushy, we don’t usually recommend them to these sleepers. Stomach sleepers generally fare better on a firmer mattress that is able to prevent their hips from sinking too far into the bed, which can lead to spinal misalignment.
Is the Helix Sunset a Good Mattress for Heavy Sleepers (Over 250 pounds)?
If you’re on the heavier side, you’re likely to sink further into the Sunset mattresses and experience more pressure in each sleeping position. We don’t recommend either of the Sunset beds for an above-average weight sleeper. This is because the coil layers included in their construction are not quite firm enough to support these sleepers. Instead, we recommend an innerspring mattress with a firm feel or the Helix Plus mattress. These sleepers can also take a look at our roundup of the best mattresses for heavy sleepers.
Helix Sunset Mattress Pain Relief Performance
Pain relief is a major factor when buying a bed, as a mattress that relieves pain will help make sure you’re comfortable all night long, without hurting your hips, knees, shoulders, or lower back. In order to test a mattress’s pain relief capabilities, we use a pressure map. This is a mat device that we can roll out on top of a mattress. Then, when we lie down on the bed, the map measures how much force our bodies exert onto the bed. It then produces a pressure map as a visual aid — areas of low pressure are blue to green, and areas of high pressure come up yellow to red. Lower pressure means less pain.
Back Pain — Based on the pressure map results above, the Helix Sunset models could do a great job alleviating tension and pressure around the lower back. However, we personally recommend that folks with back pain opt for a slightly firmer mattress to help them maintain a neutral spinal alignment throughout the entire night.
Shoulder Pain — The pressure map created from lying on our sides was largely blue, with areas of slightly more pressure around the hips and shoulders. Overall, this map suggests that the Helix Sunset does a great job alleviating pressure around the shoulders. The Luxe should alleviate even more pressure in this area because of its additional zoned support, which might be nice for particularly sensitive folks.
Hip Pain — Similarly, the Helix Sunset should feel comfortable to folks with hip pain. At the same time, we still recommend the thicker Sunset Luxe to these sleepers, based on the amount of green present in the pressure map results above.
Helix Sunset Mattress Performance for Couples
Couples tend to do best on mattresses with good motion isolation, enough responsiveness for sex, cooling features, and strong edge support. Read on to learn more about these terms, and find out how the Sunset mattress stacks up in these areas.
Motion Transfer
Motion transfer is a measure of how much movement we can detect from one side of the bed while resting on the other side. This test mimics what you might feel if you sleep with a partner who moves around often during the night.
To test motion transfer, we dropped a 10-pound steel ball onto the Helix Sunset from three different heights and used a seismometer to measure how much disturbance it caused. Each of the three heights is meant to mimic a different movement.
In our opinion, the results from the motion transfer test on the Helix Sunset were not great. The smallest drop (4 inches) caused a medium disturbance, and the larger drops showed pretty major disruptions. For those reasons, the Helix Sunset would not necessarily be our first choice for light sleepers, or people who spend the night with particularly rambunctious partners or pets.
On the other hand, the Sunset Luxe’s Premium Cooling Pillow Top does help to trap movement before it can travel across the top of your mattress. Thanks to this quilted top layer, the Sunset Luxe offers more of the motion isolation you might expect from a memory foam mattress. We recommend opting for the Luxe model if you sleep with a restless partner.
Sex
Most mattresses with low motion transfer scores are not great for sex because it’s difficult to move around and change positions on these beds. Couples often want a mattress that balances motion transfer and responsiveness. We’d say both Sunset models do a fairly good job of this. It shouldn’t be too difficult to move around on these hybrid mattresses. However, if you’re looking for a lot of responsiveness and bounce, we’d still opt for a more medium-firm feel, and make sure to avoid beds with memory foam top layers.
Cooling
Couples overheat more quickly than solo sleepers and often prefer cooling mattresses to help them wake up refreshed instead of sweaty. Luckily, both Sunset mattresses sleep cool. The Sunset Luxe includes more cooling materials than the standard model, so particularly hot sleepers might want to opt for this mattress.
Edge Support
Edge support is a measure of how supported sleepers feel on the side of their bed in comparison to the center. Great edge support makes a bed feel larger, as you can use the full surface area without fear of sinkage or sagging near the sides. The feel of a larger mattress size is especially a perk for couples. The Sunset models both had average edge support, which is what we expected from softer beds like these.
What is the Helix Sunset Mattress Made Of?
The Helix Sunset is a hybrid mattress, combining pocketed coils with foam layers. It has a soft, breathable cover, two layers of responsive foam for a nice, contouring feel, individually wrapped coils, and a supportive base layer. Below, I’ll take you through the Helix Sunset and the Helix Sunset Luxe layer-by-layer.
Helix Sunset
Cover — The Light Breathe Knit cover included on the Helix Sunset is made of 100 percent polyester and is designed to promote airflow, which can help prevent overheating at night. It should feel soft and breathable to the sleeper.
Comfort Layer — Below the cover, the Helix Sunset includes a comfort layer made from Copper Gel Memory Foam and High-Grade Helix Responsive Foam. These foams work together to relieve joint pressure and provide body-contouring for total comfort throughout the night. Overall, you should be able to sense this layer’s comfy, soft feel while laying on the Helix Sunset.
Transition Layer — The transition layer of the Helix Sunset mattress includes another row of High-Grade Helix Responsive Foam. However, this layer has a lower IFD (Indentation Force Deflection), providing this section of the mattress with more ergonomic support and cushioning, as well as a softer overall feel.
Support Layer — Next up is the body shape layer, which is made using hundreds of individually wrapped wire coils. These coils provide a cradling feeling and also add a nice bounce to this bed. These coils are also reinforced around the perimeter of the Helix Sunset to provide some additional edge support.
Base Layer — The final layer of the Helix Sunset is constructed using DuraDense Foam, a type of polyfoam that supports the entire mattress on top of a slatted bed frame or box spring.
Helix Sunset Luxe
Cover — The Sunset Luxe’s cover is made of eco-friendly Tencel and offers even more breathability than the standard Sunset’s cover.
Pillow Top — The Premium Cooling Pillow Top included on the Luxe is quilted with gel foam to offer additional body contouring, as well as a nice, plush feel.
Comfort Layer — The comfort layer of the Sunset Luxe includes the same Copper Gel Memory Foam and High-Grade Helix Responsive Foam that are in the standard model.
Transition Layer — Below that is the same additional layer of High-Grade Responsive Foam that is found in the standard Sunset model.
Support Layer — Next up is a pocketed coil layer. The Luxe includes more coils than the standard Sunset, and these coils are zoned for support, which means they’ll feel firmer around the lower back and softer at the shoulders.
Base Layer — Last up is the same layer of DuraDense Foam you can find in the standard model.
Helix Sunset Unboxing and Off-Gassing
The Sunset and Sunset Luxe are both bed-in-a-box mattresses, which means both will have an off-gassing and decompression period after they’re unwrapped. Be sure to leave either of these beds in a well-ventilated room during their off-gassing period to ensure that any odor dissipates within 24-48 hours. You may also want to make sure you have a friend nearby to help you unbox the Sunset Luxe, as this is a pretty heavy bed.
We recommend this mattress for the following sleeper types: Financing options are available for this mattress. The Helix Sunset is the brand's softest model, which makes it a great option for side sleepers looking for a plush, contouring feel. Its memory foam layer adds some nice sinkage and pressure relief as well.

My Final Thoughts about the Helix Sunset Mattress
Now that we’ve covered what’s inside the Helix Sunset mattresses, how it feels to sleep on them, and how they performed in our various tests, I’ll list a few additional things for you to consider when deciding if the Helix Sunset is the right choice for you or not.
My favorite things about the Helix Sunset mattress
Both of the Sunset mattresses are great options for side sleepers. The firmness level of these beds means they should offer plenty of plush pressure relief to these folks. I also think these beds are great picks for side sleepers who tend to sleep hot. The Sunset Luxe does an especially great job of temperature regulation during the night, thanks to its cooling cover, gel-infused foams, and breathable pocketed coils. I highly recommend that memory foam lovers take a look at the Helix Sunset line.
My Helix Sunset mattress complaints
That being said, these mattresses are definitely too soft for stomach sleepers. Back sleepers who like a firmer feel might also find that these beds are a bit too soft for their liking. However, if a hybrid mattress with body-contouring foam layers is appealing to you, Helix offers plenty of different models, so you should be able to find one that works for your preferences and needs.
I’ve also noticed that Helix mattresses do have a strong off-gassing smell when you first take them out of the box, but this applies to most bed-in-a-box mattresses. If you’re especially concerned about odor, make sure to leave your new mattress in a well-ventilated room for at least one day before adding sheets.
How Much Does the Helix Sunset Cost?
Price point is a big factor when deciding on a new mattress. Take a look at the chart below to see how the Sunset and Sunset Luxe mattresses stack up, and be sure to visit our Helix mattress coupon page to get a deal on these beds.
The price listed will be before any discounts or offers for each size.
