Does this mattress require a box spring?

I put a sheet of 3/4" plywood over the rails of the bed because I didn't want my daughter to be too high off the ground. It feels just fine without. But to each his own.

No it does not; I have it on Ikea Malm bed which has wooden slabs in the bottom. It is working very good so far...

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

Yes. We've been using it without a box spring for 6 months without issue. Love the mattress.....

I would say yes, it does required a box spring. The base is only 7inches off the floor and with a mattress 9 inches thick this probably would be too low. I have used a box spring and in total the top of the mattress is 25 inches off the floor

No a box spring is not needed we purchased a nice mattress to go with it.... The bed is very tall and sturdy we love it!

Yes it has to have a box spring. You would be way too low with just a mattress. You can get a good box spring at Big Lots for hardly any cost if you have one of those stores near you.

Yes- though note that this mattress requires a platform bed frame, or a box spring.

No box spring needed. Use a reg twin mattress on both girls beds. Had them over a year now they are great! Very comphy

It really doesn't need a box spring. It just needs a solid / firm base to rest on.

I don't have a box spring. I just have the mattress on a platform bed. I don't have any problems, it's a heavy mattress and so comfortable!

It was a mattress only on top of a hospital bedframe which had springs in the frame. I don't believe box springs would be necessary. It is a nice heavy foam....comfortable and does not squish down easily.

No, not unless you put a piece of plywood on it first. Also, without a box spring your mattress would be really close to the floor.

I had a platform base so I did not need a box spring. The mattress is very comfortable!

Yes, I just have the mattress on the floor without any box spring and it is very comfortable. I imagine it might be a bit more comfy when placed on a box spring, however, you don't need one.

Hello,No. this mattress does not include a box spring. It is the one that goes on top of a box spring. If you want to know about the quality I can say that I thought that this one was firm memory foam, but when I tried it, I woke up with back pain, restless. I think that the quality is not bad for the price, but it depends on what you are looking for.
