Best Overall Box Mattress

Helix Midnight Elite

Pros:

  • Medium-support mattress that provides deep, restful sleep
  • Luxurious feeling akin to a hotel bed
  • No box spring required
  • Ships in two boxes for easy setup
  • 100-night sleep trial and 15-year warranty
  • Made-to-order in the USA
  • OEKO-TEX and CertiPUR-US certified fabrics and foam
  • If not satisfied with firmness, can swap out insert

Cons:

  • On the pricey side
  • Only works with platform-style bed frames

While it might not hurt to try and save money on toppers and protectors, Dr. Wang cautions against penny-pinching when purchasing a mattress. “You really can’t put a price on getting a good night’s rest!” he says.

If you are looking for the best mattress in a box and are willing to invest in something high quality, Senior Editor Katie Bandurski recommends the Helix Midnight Elite. While it might not be the cheapest mattress in a box, this top-of-the-line option offers five layers of high-density medium firmness foam.

The mattress weighs a total of 172 pounds, but luckily, Helix divides the base and comfort insert into two separate boxes. This makes the process of hauling it up or down any stairs a whole lot easier. Immediately, Bandurski was impressed by the lack of any “new mattress smells” and that she was able to assemble the bed solo. Another unique aspect of the Helix is that if you aren’t happy with the firmness level, you can simply swap out the insert instead of having to purchase a new mattress altogether.

The Helix Midnight Elite “looks like it came from a luxury mattress store, not a box,” notes Bandurski. In just a few weeks, her sleep quality “drastically improved,” as did her back pain. She adds that the mattress does a great job of minimizing movement, which equates to less sleep interruptions and higher quality sleep. “The Helix’s five foam layers and hundreds of individually wrapped steel coils do a great job absorbing shock,” she says.
