Helix Midnight — Product Description
What It Is
-
Type: Hybrid mattress — combines foam layers (memory foam + responsive poly foams) + individually wrapped steel coils.
-
Height / Thickness: ~ 12 inches for the standard Midnight model
-
Feel / Firmness: Medium-feel (roughly 5-6 on a 1-10 scale), described by Helix and reviewers as “not too soft, not too firm,” with some saying slightly firmer than pure medium.
Construction / Layers
Here are the internal layers & materials:
| Layer | Material / Feature | Purpose / Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Cover | “Breathe Knit” breathable cover (standard). Optional upgrades to GlacioTex Cooling Cover or Cooling Pillow Top. | Helps with airflow, moisture wicking; cooling options are better for hot sleepers. |
| Comfort / Top Layer | Memory Plus Foam — a Helix proprietary memory foam blend. | Gives pressure relief especially over hips & shoulders; soft contouring feel. |
| Transition Layers | Responsive foams / polyfoams beneath the top memory foam | Used to moderate the sink of the memory foam, prevent “too soft” feeling, help with contouring but also support. |
| Support Layer / Coils | Individually wrapped steel coils. Helix also reinforces lengthwise sides for edge-support. | Provides overall support, bounce, cooling from airflow, and better edge stability vs foam only. |
| Base / Foundation | Dense foam (support foam base) below the coils. | For structural support, durability. |
Key Features / Performance
-
Pressure Relief: Good contouring; helps reduce pressure around shoulders/hips especially in side sleeping.
-
Motion Isolation: Because of foam layers + wrapped coils, it does a decent job isolating motion — so partner movement is less likely to disturb
-
Temperature Regulation / Cooling:
-
The breathable cover helps; optional upgrade to more advanced cooling cover (GlacioTex) if you sleep hot.
-
The coil core allows airflow compared to all-foam beds.
-
-
Edge Support: Reinforced edges (“lengthwise sides”) help; pretty good but perhaps not as strong as some ultra-luxury hybrids
