This may be the biggest mattress scam…
This may be the biggest mattress scam on the market. I have now ordered twice from Helix Sleep: about 18 months ago and a few weeks ago. Both times I ordered the king-size mattress with all of their cooling infrastructure, the most expensive option. Both times, they have continually delayed the mattresses without any explanation or communication.Both times the excuse was that a sale caused delays. I can’t reach anyone by phone, and I receive no explanation of when the package will arrive. All I’m told is that FedEx will send a notice, without a date or context, though their website promises delivery in 3 to 5 days. The first mattress I ordered was delayed a month, After that, I canceled. I ordered this mattress for a new home with no other option; it was supposed to arrive in seven days. Sixteen days have passed, and I still haven’t received any notification about it, so I had to cancel again today.

Hello Krish. We’re really sorry to hear this happened not once, but twice. We completely understand how frustrating it must have been to place another order with us, especially while moving into a new home and counting on having your mattress arrive within a certain timeframe. Because our mattresses are made to order, production timelines can sometimes extend during larger sale periods when we see a significant increase in orders. Our website currently states that mattresses typically ship within 5–8 business days, and once the mattress leaves our facility, FedEx generally needs a few additional days for delivery. As soon as the order ships, we send an email with tracking information so you can follow its progress. That said, we understand that when an order takes longer than expected, communication becomes even more important. We’re sorry you felt left without clear updates and also had difficulty reaching our team by phone. Our phone support does have more limited hours, so the fastest way to reach us is typically through live chat. Our chat team is available seven days a week from 10am–10pm ET, and response times are usually around 3–5 minutes. We know none of that takes away from the frustration of waiting longer than expected, especially after experiencing a delay with your previous order as well. We really appreciate you sharing this feedback, and we’re sorry that after giving us another chance, your second experience ended in another cancellation.
