I tried it briefly at a friends place and liked it but did not love the price. Comfort wise it really did feel balanced though and I did not wake up sore which is rare for me.

The pressure relief on my shoulders was noticeable within the first week and my lower back pain has been much better since switching. It feels soft on top but still supportive underneath.

Wasn’t for me, personally. Turns out I prefer traditional memory foam. Not bad necessarily, but imo it’s far to expensive for a mattress that comes rolled in a box

Cooling was a big plus for me. I usually overheat at night and this mattress stays pretty neutral. It is not icy cool but it definitely does not trap heat the way my old foam mattress did.

One thing I would mention is that it is heavy. Getting it set up was a bit of a workout so having help makes a difference. Once it was in place though I have had zero issues.

I just got rid of it because the foam cells lost their resistance. No dips or craters but the foam would no longer hold any weight before collapsing causing pain.

I have the same mattress and I regret it immensely. Mattress is worse than the old $400 one I had before, definitely all name and marketing and nothing else.

With a medium (6) feel and strong scores in edge support, temperature control, and motion isolation, the Midnight Luxe is a quality bed that suits a wide range of body types and sleep positions.

Although there's sinkage when you sit on the edge, I felt secure enough while lying down to sleep in this area. The bed leaves something to be desired when it comes to motion isolation, which is important to consider if you're a light sleeper.

r/Mattress— neutral

The mattress overall does what I want it to, but I could have spent far less for the same experience.

I just got into a Helix Midnight Luxe. It’s been exceptional and I feel when it comes to prioritizing your sleep and recovery, you heal like Wolverine.

r/Mattress▼ don’t recommend

I tried the Helix Midnight Luxe a couple of years ago and honestly we didn't like it. It just wasn't as comfortable as I hoped it would be.

r/Mattress— neutral

last night was my first sleep on it Didn’t feel super hot, but definitely a little warm

I give the mattress a 10 out of 10 for its temperature regulation. For edge support I would give it a perfect score of 10 out of 10. For motion isolation I would give the Helix Midnight Luxe a score of 9 out of 10.

r/Mattress▼ don’t recommend

It’s been over a month and it still smells really strong. The smell is overwhelming and it makes my mouth taste really weird.

Sleep Junkie (affiliate)▲ recommend

It scored 9/10 for cooling on the TENCEL cover version, and I did not experience heat buildup during sleep sessions. It scored 10/10 for edge support; I sat in multiple positions at the full perimeter with minimal compression.

We bought a king a few years ago, had to return and got a replacement due to sag. Then it sag again after another year.

I am sleeping great now and feel much better in the mornings. Better quality of sleep and my back feels much better.

r/Mattress▼ don’t recommend

Tried it in-store & it felt too firm for me. Ordered The Saatva Classic Plush & I’m getting best sleep of my life.

r/Mattress▼ don’t recommend

Wasn’t a good fit for me (nor are innerspring hybrids in general it seems). I could feel a spring with my hip

Mattress Nerd (affiliate)▲ recommend

After lying on it for 5 uninterrupted minutes, the temperature only increased by 7 degrees, placing it among our best cooling mattresses. I didn't feel unsupported or at risk of tumbling off, and you could sleep at the far edges of this bed without worrying.

r/Mattress▼ don’t recommend

My back has gotten seriously screwed up from sleeping on it for two months.

NapLab (affiliate)▲ recommend

Support on the Helix Midnight Luxe is outstanding. The Helix Midnight Luxe has outstanding cooling. It has outstanding sitting edge support and outstanding lying edge support. It has a very low level of motion transfer, 34% less motion transfer than the average.

We’re finding the bed too soft.
