Helix Adjustable Base review

The Helix Adjustable Base is the powered base Helix sells alongside its hybrid mattresses, and Helix says it works with any Helix mattress. It raises the head and foot to custom positions and has a Zero Gravity preset, plus full body massage, 2 USB charging ports and a built-in nightlight. The legs adjust in 3-inch steps up to 12 inches, or come off so the base can sit on an existing frame, and setup is tool-free with a zero clearance design. King and CA King come as split options so partners can set their sides separately. Helix sells it in twin through California king, more sizes than most rivals here. The queen was $999 with a 20% Black Friday code when we checked, against $1,248.75. Helix gives the base a 30-night trial and a 10-year warranty. The mattress is extra, and the Helix Elite Adjustable Base costs $1,386 for the queen.
