Our Verdict
Nectar Premier Hybrid
Helix Midnight Luxe 2025
The Helix Midnight Luxe 2025 and Nectar Premier Hybrid are both moderately bouncy and responsive hybrid options with medium firmness, but most people will prefer the Helix. The biggest difference is in edge support. While both mattresses have pocket coils built into the edges, the coils in the Nectar compress too easily to provide much support. The coils in the Helix, on the other hand, provide a lot of support, so you can sleep comfortably right next to the sides. The Helix is also more responsive and slightly more cooling. The one area where the Nectar comes out ahead is motion isolation, so if you sleep with a partner, you may prefer it since movement is less likely to disturb or wake you.
