Know before you buy
The Sunset Luxe is specifically engineered for side sleepers who need a softer feel to relieve pressure on the shoulders and hips. If you primarily sleep on your back or stomach, you may find this model too soft, as those positions typically require a firmer surface to maintain proper spinal alignment.
The zoned lumbar support provides firmer reinforcement in the center of the mattress where your body is heaviest. This helps keep your spine in a neutral position while allowing the softer foam layers at the head and foot to cushion your joints.
The Tencel cover is a standard, breathable fabric designed for moisture-wicking and comfort. The GlacioTex cover is a specialized material engineered to feel cool to the touch, making it a better choice if you tend to overheat while sleeping.
The trial allows you to test the mattress in your own home for a full year. If you decide it isn't the right fit after a 30-day break-in period, you can return it for a full refund.
Yes, the Helix Sunset Luxe is compatible with most adjustable bed frames. Its flexible memory foam construction allows it to contour to the base as it moves without compromising the integrity of the mattress.
The ErgoAlign layer is an optional upgrade designed to provide additional ergonomic contouring and support. It is worth considering if you have specific concerns about back pain or require extra targeted pressure relief beyond what the standard memory foam layers offer.
