For a queen, do you need extra support in the middle.I want to use it on frame meant for a box springs?

I m using a queen size on a queen wooden bed frame instead of a box spring. But I do have wooden slats under it. I would say you should be able to use it the same way you used a box spring on the same bed. If you didn't have any support under the box spring then you probably won't need it under the bunky board. But I can't say for sure because I used slats with the box spring and the bunky board.

I have two queen size beds. On is the tradional metal frame with a bar in the middle. And I have a wooden bred frame with a bar in the middle also. I have added a bunny board to each bed. On bed has a box springs as well and one doesn't. It works either way and the back support feeling is great. I have no additional bars or internal legs in the frame. If you do it's fine also. The addition and use of the bunny board is the best thing I could do since I have had back surgery and still have a very bad back. It works great and I get a good nights sleep. Go for the bunky bed boards!!

You will definitely want slats and a middle support beam, unless the frame has a good couple of inches on all edges to secure the board. I'd still think some sort of middle support would be needed though, especially if you have more than one person sleeping in the bed at a time.

You still need a box spring. This provides better support for a full size and larger bed so the box spring will not sag.

Patricia, this frame is designed for a box spring. I think you would be very uncomfortable placing just a mattress in it and it probably would fall off the narrow metal side frames. There is only one cross beam to support the middle. It would not work well.

Yes, you need a box spring to accompany your mattress. Have no idea about the weight capacity, however, this is a standard queen size bed. Best wishes.

I have my queen over a box spring and have not had any issue although they recommend a flat solid base

Yes. This frame will support a box spring if you want to use one. But, there is enough frame support that a box spring is not required.

I bought this for my standard box spring and mattress set up- queen size. I have mine attached the the bed frame and it works very nicely! I've had no problems with it.

I love this headboard, but I use it with a boxspring and mattress, and no frame. My boxspring is directly on the floor. It works perfect for my use. If you have a frame, boxspring and mattress, there is a chance that this would be too high.

No! I have a really thick memory foam mattress on mine and it fits perfectly. No box spring needed!

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.

It's not necessary, but you could ... just make sure the box spring has a structure of supports that are pretty close together so you don't end up with sagging sections. Remember, the foam mattress doesn't have as strong a "frame" to keep it from drooping in between slats. It works best on a platform frame -- try searching Amazon.com for "platform bed frame" to see a good idea of the support it should have. I have a queen-size Sleep Master metal bed frame foundation that works great (I just bought 12 risers to raise it up another few inches). Hope that helps!

You wouldn't want to place a box spring on top of the frame. The frame has slats that connect from the middle board to the frame which strengthens the frame all over. Also, the slats are purposely bowed upward just a little to allow for flex. My mattress comes up out of the frame and it's 8". With a box spring it would be super high. I got the queen and got a memory foam mattress. A regular mattress would suffice as well. Hope this helps!

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.

I believe so. Mine came with a wider frame than I needed and I bought a queen. You need to have rails on the side for it to work properly though.

The need for a box spring depends on the type of bed frame you have. My bed frame has the bars across from top to bottom to support the mattress so I don't use a box spring, however I do use a Mattress Support folding bed board to give my mattress extra support. With the mattress support boards it is a very comfortable mattress!!!

We have bought 3 of this frame, one full and 2 queen. I think you would need a box spring as on the beds we have bought there is only one cross support. No idea what a twin has. I can only tell you that we like the style and finish so much that when we have moved we have always replaced with exactly the same frame. Very nice finish and product.

I think you would need a king boxspring. Otherwise there would be not support in the middle to hold up the twin boxspring.Sincerely,Russell WestWrest Furnishings
