The August Helix mattress sale is here, with 20% off hybrid beds for every sleep style at Helix. Our top pick for most people is the Helix Midnight Luxe mattress. It’s not only one of the best mattresses all-around but the cushioned finish makes it perfect for side sleepers. Right now a queen is $1,999 (was $2,498).
But if you don't need a new bed urgently, we recommend waiting for a better Helix mattress sale. 20% off is standard and with Labor Day coming up fast, we predict that by the end of the month, Helix will be offering 25% off, at least. If we're lucky, 27% off will return — it's one of our favorite Helix deals and it's been MIA since June.
Need a bed now? We've rounded up the best Helix mattress deals to shop today, based on our expert testing. Or head to our mattress sales hub for even more offers.

Today's best Helix mattress prices
The Helix Midnight Luxe mattress offers everything users love about the Midnight, but with some Luxe upgrades. This includes a quilted pillow top covered with durable and eco-friendly Tencel, which adds an extra two inches in height. Add upgrades for cooling and lower back pain relief and you have the best mattress for side sleepers out there.
Instead of regular memory foam, the Midnight Luxe has a layer of "memory plus foam", which is like a high density memory foam but with the same medium support. On top of all this, there's a lifetime warranty.

The Helix Midnight mattress is designed for side sleepers and those who move around in the night. It's got a medium feel - not too firm or soft - which makes it one of Helix's most popular mattresses.
Memory foam is ideal for providing comfort and pressure relief, but it can be known to overheat in the night. Helix's breathable cover helps wick away moisture, plus there's also an option to upgrade to a GlacioTex pillow top cover, a specialist material found in some of the best cooling mattresses.

Designed for plus-size sleepers, the Helix Plus mattress has all the extra touches needed for big and tall users to get that perfect night's sleep. This includes extra-tall coils which provide more support, and 4-pound memory foam in a specialist Helix Plus blend. This high-density foam adds an extra inch of height, and will support your body no matter your sleeping position.
It's more expensive on average than a Helix mattress, but the Helix Plus is still a reasonably priced mattress, and it's covered by a lifetime warranty, which means you can trust its durability. We rate it one of the best mattresses for heavy people.
The Helix Birch mattress is handmade in the USA and is one of the best organic mattresses you can buy. It's also covered by an impressive lifetime warranty. This organic mattress offers an alternative to polyurethane-based foams and chemicals. It's made of totally natural and ethically-sourced materials.
With a cover of 100% organic cotton and a wool comfort layer, the all-natural materials are a great selling point for the eco-conscious. This mattress doesn't skimp out on comfort, though. It also offers natural support and breathable birch wool for temperature regulation.

Think the Helix Midnight, only softer. The Helix Sunset is a plush mattress that promises marshmallow softness but with the same support for side sleepers and those who toss and turn.
Edge support is a major concern for many soft mattresses, but the Helix Sunset has wrapped coils that create a reinforced edge to keep you centered when you're sleeping. There's also a lifetime warranty and a 100-night trial.

Firm mattresses aren't usually made with side sleepers in mind, so the Helix Twilight is a bit of an anomaly. But for as firm as it is, the Twilight still delivers exceptional pressure relief at the hips and shoulders. That said, some side sleepers may still find it too firm — and surprisingly, dedicated back and stomach sleepers may not find it quite supportive enough.
A special memory foam comfort layer guarantees a firm layer of support, and another bottom foam layer adds base support and extra durability. The Helix Twilight mattress has individually wrapped coils that limit motion transfer, making this a great choice for couples.

Back and stomach sleepers don't have to be relegated to firmer mattresses – if you like something softer, the Helix Dusk Luxe could be what you're looking for. It's a medium (6) mattress that has just enough pressure relief for front and back sleeping. (Side sleepers may find it lacking, especially along their hips.)
The Dusk Luxe features six layers consisting of wrapped coils (reinforced in the middle for lumbar support), a DuraFoam base, and a trio of foam comfort layers, including Helix's Dynamic Foam, which is a latex-foam hybrid. On top is a breathable Tencel cover, but if you sleep hot it may be wise to upgrade to the GlacioTex Cooling Cover, as this mattress may sleep warm.

How much your Helix mattress will cost depends on which tier of luxury you go for. Whichever model you pick, you can expect a Helix mattress sale that knocks at least 20% off MSRP.
The Helix Core Collection sits in the mid-range market. As of August 2026, official prices start at $998 for a twin and go up to $1,861. There's never less than 20% off.
For anyone looking for more back support and all-over body comfort, the Helix Luxe range is priced from $1,492 to $2,998, with a Helix Midnight Luxe queen coming in at $2,498. Again, expect a minimum of 20% off those prices, but regardless of that, it's still in the premium price bracket.
In 2023, Helix added a more luxurious tier of mattresses, the Elite range. At MSRP, prices for these range from $2,624 to $4,749 (again, expect 20% or more off).
There’s also the Helix Birch Natural Mattress, an organic mattress with GOTS and Greenguard Gold certification. This mattress starts at $1,373 for a Twin, with a queen going for $1,873. Birch sales always echo the Helix deals, so when there's 20% off Helix, there's 20% off Birch i.e. all the time.
Helix mattress sales FAQ
When is the best time to buy a Helix mattress?
The best time to buy a Helix mattress is during the five major sale events of the year; Black Friday, Cyber Monday, Presidents’ Day, Memorial Day and Labor Day. For the past two years, this is when we’ve seen the brand roll out its 27% off deal with the code TOMS27.
That said, Helix is also known to drop occasional discounts during less prominent sale events, such as Sleep Awareness Week and the July 4th sales. Regardless of which sale event you opt for, the discount is unlikely ever to exceed 27% — that’s the lowest price we’ve tracked on most of the brand’s mattress ranges since 2024.
However, for the 4th of July 2026 sale, Helix introduced a different deal: 30% off Elite mattresses, 25% off Luxe mattresses, and the usual 20% off the Core line-up.
This is an excellent deal for big spenders with the biggest discount we've spotted in years on the Elite beds. It's also a good offer for anyone eyeing up a Luxe mattress. But Core shoppers were left in the cold — we'll be keeping a close eye on these prices come Labor Day and Black Friday.
Do I need a Helix mattress promo code or coupon?
Helix mattress sales typically range between 20% and 25% off, and these deals are nearly always automatically applied on site. However, Helix does occasionally use promo codes to unlock their discounts — you’ll see these advertised on their homepage banner. It’s worth adding these at checkout to secure your saving.
During major sale events Helix’s discount is nearly always bumped up to 27% off when you use the code TOMS27 at checkout. That deal is never automatically applied or advertised on their homepage, so it’s worth bookmarking this page if you’re doing your research before buying at a later date.
When live, that 27% off saving applies to Helix’s entire range of mattresses, including the Luxe, Plus, Birch and Elite. You can also use it on bedding, pillows and sleep accessories — no minimum spend required.
Can I return a Helix mattress?
Yes, you can return your Helix mattress if it doesn’t meet your sleep needs. Helix offers a 120 night sleep trial, which means you have within that window to decide. However, you are unable to request a return or exchange within the first 30 days of receiving your new mattress, as this is the minimum recommended time to adjust to a new bed.
In order to initiate a return within 120 days (but after the 30 day ‘break in’ period), you need to fill out a return request form on the Helix Sleep website. Helix will then arrange the collection of your mattress from inside your home, which is a service that Helix provides for free.
Your mattress doesn't need to be in its original packaging to be eligible for a return. However, you are only able to return two mattresses per household or customer. Where possible, Helix will then donate your unwanted mattress.
