Do I need a box spring with this platfporm bed?

We bought the queen size version to put a sleep number bed on. Their plastic support structure sags. This platform is tall enough and stiff enough for the sleep number setup, which has a plastic plate under the air mattresses. Worst case for a mattress would be to a 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick sheet of plywood if the mattress settles in between the slats - or because the slats are a little lower than the frame. I found it easy to assemble and is very stiff - no sag side to side with the queen size.

Not if you get a good thick mattress. The bed has an adjustment so you can lower the frame to allow a box spring, but it will be money wasted. We got a good thick queen Beauty Rest Mattress and it is great without the box spring.

No. I have a memory foam mattress sitting directly on the frame without any issues so far.

No. This bedframe does not require a box spring. I purchased one of these bed frames for a cabin. I was so pleased with it I purchased five more. I was concerned that it would not be very solid, but these bed frames are rock solid. In my opinion, they are a very good product at a very good price.

The slats are pretty close and I am using a memory foam on the Queen size with no problem

Yes, it's fine without a box spring - we put plywood on the slats of our bed frame and the mattress on top of that.

This bed is really made as a platform. So technically you don't need the box spring. We just have the mattress. You "technically" could put the box spring but I think the bed will be way too high. You may need a step to get into the bed with both. Hope this helps.

You don't need a box spring if you have a platform bed. If it's for a regular frame bed you need box spring.

Yes, you need a box spring this is not a platform bed just a frame. This also sits very close to the floor but with the box spring our bed is a perfect height.

I used a platform bed frame that has multiple slats and no need for a box spring. It is firm and very comfortable, perfect for that platform bed.

A box spring isn't necessary. The bed is designed to place the mattress directly on top of the frame.

No, you do NOT need a box spring. I use a platform bed with what's called a Bunky Board. To this day I swear it's the most comfortable mattress I ever slept on

No box spring needed. But slats definitely needed. Make sure the gaps between slats are no more than 4", I would suggest.

No it does not need a box spring unless you have an active child that like to jump and plop on the bed

The beauty of this bed is that is does not need a box spring. It is a platform bed. I did not use a box spring but i would think that you could if you wanted to .

It does not require the box spring. But if you do the bed will be very high

If you have a platform bed with adequate slats, you do not need anything else. If you have a normal bed frame, you definitely need a box spring.

Depends what kind of frame you have. If the frame has cross beams that support the mattress throughout then you don't need a box spring. If your frame supports the mattress only on the edges then you need a box spring.

No box spring is necessary if you have enough bed slates. My bed frame has about 20 wooden curved slats so I do not use a box spring. On a typical bed frame that only has 3 or 4 supports, you most definitely would need something. There is also the option of using a platform bed frame which is a solid board.

As stated previously before, this is a platform bed. No box spring is needed.
