Comfort	Our special latex-foam hybrid alternative, designed to react and contour to your body.	Our 7-layer hybrid mattress fuses the springy support of individually-wrapped coils with the plush comfort of gel memory foam. Experience out-of-this-world comfort, with the best of both worlds. Two one inch layers of special gel-infused Memory Foam absorbs and dissipates body heat as fresh air passes through the foam.
Support	Specially designed using proprietary Helix Dynamic Foam to react to your body shape and aid recovery. Density of the top and middle layers optimized to give you extra support based on your body type. High-Grade Polyfoam	The core of the GhostBed Flex features the patented Ghost Flex innerspring coil unit with our Spirited Edge Support design. Individual 8.5" coils create the weightless feeling you love, while wrapping them individually creates minimal motion transfer. Plus, two rows of specially reinforced coils along the edge of the bed make it easy to sit comfortably without slipping off. One inch of Ghost Flex Soft Transition Foam offers pure pressure relief. This layer of soft transition foam contours to your body and reduces the need to toss and turn. Individual coils offer the responsive support of traditional innerspring mattresses, without the worry of wearing out after just a few months. Additionally, the coils near the edge of GhostBed Flex are specially reinforced for better support - so you can sit on the edge of your bed without sliding off.

FAQs

Helix Dusk

Do your mattresses offer different levels of support?

Any strong and solid base is suitable, including adjustable bases. Avoid slatted foundations with gaps of more than 3" and box springs with actual springs. While a slatted base can improve breathability, it's not required as the latex foam in the mattress is naturally breathable. A slatted base can help prevent mold on the mattress cover in high-humidity environments.

What is the lifespan of the Helix Dusk mattress?

The Helix Dusk mattress is designed to last between seven to ten years, with a warranty protecting against premature sagging and manufacturing defects for ten years after purchase. The Helix Dusk Luxe variant offers an extended warranty of 15 years.

Is the Helix Dusk a soft mattress?

The Helix Dusk is not considered distinctly soft. It is a medium-firm mattress with two foam layers providing cushioning, but overall, it has a balanced feel rather than a plush one.

GhostBed Flex Hybrid

How thick is a GhostBed Flex mattress?

The GhostBed Flex mattress is 13 inches thick, which is more than the average mattress thickness of 10 to 11 inches. This extra thickness contributes to the mattress's comfort, support, and durability.

How long does it take for a GhostBed Flex to expand?

You can sleep on your new GhostBed mattress almost immediately, but it can take anywhere from a few hours to a full day for the mattress to expand completely.

Is there a weight limit for the Ghostbed Flex?

The GhostBed Flex can support up to 750 lbs. when placed on a strong foundation. For customers over 300 pounds, it is recommended to purchase the King GhostBed Luxe and the companion King GhostBed All-In-One Foundation.
