Helix Sleep launches new mattresses for heavy people — and they're already up to $1,124 off
The Helix Plus Luxe and Plus Elite mattresses are ideal for heavy people and are already 30% off
Helix Sleep have now added two new luxury beds to their Plus series, a collection of high-quality mattresses designed for plus-sized sleepers. The Helix Plus Luxe and Plus Elite join the core model to give heavier people more choice in premium and customizable mattresses.
Helix Sleep is the luxe sleep brand behind some of the best mattresses on the market, and the Plus Luxe and Plus Elite are designed to meet the brand's high-quality standards. Both feature a multi-layer hybrid design of supportive steel coils, medium-feel high-density foams, and a pillow top for soft comfort. Like all Helix mattresses, the Plus Luxe and Plus Elite are fiberglass free.
Both mattresses are upgrades from the Plus Core, with taller builds and more layers. The Helix Plus Elite is the most luxurious of the three, with a 16" build packed with a grand total of nine layers, it also comes with a trademark GlacioTex cover for a cooler night's sleep.
If you like the sound of these Plus mattresses, you'll be glad to know that Helix has already knocked 30% off the Plus Luxe and Elite in the early access Memorial Day mattress sales. Not only can you save up to $1,124 on the Helix Plus Elite when using the code MEMDAY30 at Helix Sleep, you’ll also get a free pillow set with your purchase. Let's take a closer look.
Helix Plus Luxe: Features and price
The 13.5" Helix Plus Luxe has a multi-layer hybrid design, consisting of three high-density foam layers for support, a sturdy layer of TitanCore steel coils, and a quilted pillow top with a breathable TENCEL cover.
The bottom layer features DuraDense foam, which provides durability. After the tier of individually wrapped coils for lumbar and spinal support, there's a transition layer of ultra-dense foam for targeted comfort. The next foam layer provides a medium-firm feel and cradling pressure relief, followed by a responsive top layer of extra-dense foam.
Price-wise, the Helix Plus Luxe comes with a luxe price tag. The MSRP of each Plus Luxe size is as follows:
