Helix Sleep has revamped all of its Core, Luxe, and Elite mattresses.

Do these tweaks improve what are already some of thebest mattresseson the market?

(The pillow top upgrade now features denser foam.)

New to the Core Collection is an option to add an ErgoAlign layer for targeted lumbar support.

It maintains a medium level of comfort at a 5-6 out of 10 on the firmness scale.

Its wonderfully contouring, especially with the newer, denser comfort foams.

Meanwhile, I found it a tad too soft to comfortably sleep on my front.

Motion isolation here is excellent, exceeding the already-impressive Helix Midnight.

Right now, all upgrades for cooling and lumbar support add $199 each (reg.

$249 each).

My first impressions:These changes now make the Midnight Elite worth considering over the Midnight Luxe.

Helix Midnight Mattress: was from $998.75 now from $799 at Helix Sleep

I rate it a 7 out of 10 on the firmness scale and found it comfortable in any position.

Edge-to-edge support is outstanding, as is the motion isolation.

The Midnight Elite comes standard with a GlacioTex cover.

All sizes remain as they were pre-transformation, with a queen-size going for $2,999 after 20% off.

(I’m also a fan of the sleeker color scheme.

It no longer looks like a S’more.)

For back pain relief, you’re free to add an ErgoAlign layer to either model.

Stay tuned for complete reviews featuring longer-term data and subjective tests.
