Support Info

The new Helix Plus has higher density foams to match heavier sleepers and provide increased durability. The coil unit has best in-class edge support, so plus size sleepers never feel like they're falling off the mattress. An extra layer of high density, 4 pound foam is included in one of the three foam layers to help provide maximum support for people with high BMIs.

Gel-infused memory foam gently cradles you to sleep and keeps you there, with a snug-as-a-bug body hug.

Because truly relaxed muscles are the key to deeper dreaming.
