Helix Kids Mattress vs Nectar Kids 8" Mattress

Buy the Helix Kids for a growing child who needs a mattress that changes with them and for households that value certified low emissions. Its two firmness sides, pocketed coils and GREENGUARD Gold certification make it the stronger all-round pick. The Nectar Kids 8" is a simpler all-foam mattress with a lower profile, better suited to bunk beds and tight frames. Reviewers of both praise the dual-side design; the Helix draws more praise for cooling and edge support, the Nectar for its straightforward feel.

• Choose the Helix Kids if you want a hybrid with two firmness levels, certified foams and a breathable Tencel cover for a child moving up from a crib or toddler bed.
• Choose the Nectar Kids 8" if you need a low-profile all-foam mattress for a bunk bed or trundle and prefer a single medium feel.
