Conclusion

Lull mattress was made for those who want to have a healthier sleep and that highlights the therapeutic nature of Lull’s only all-foam mattress.

Lull offers comfort with a gel-coated memory foam and breathable cooling cover. While this is almost conventional, Lull took support further with a therapeutic support transition foam that reliefs pressure optimally and balances the spine for pain relief.

Inspite of this incredible performance from Lull, Helix is a better brand with 12 endowed mattresses offering variety as the first edge and then providing them in different firmness levels as opposed to the one-size-fits-all firmness level offered by Lull.

On comfort and support, Helix wins also with exclusive comfort layers that cradles the body and adapts to the shape of the sleeper for contouring.

Support, transition and zoned body shaped layers ends the argument in favor of Helix for the best support system combination that alleviates back pains, reliefs pressure and keeps the sleeper healthy.
