Could this bed be assembled without the footboard (with only headboard and bed frame)? If so, would it be secure and stable? What size mattress?

I just asked my husband who put it together and he said that you can not put it up with out the footboard. the footboard is part of the frame.

No, it needs both the headboard, bedframe and footboard. The footboard is part of the frame. My mother also has this bed, we will be purchasing another.

No, you do not need a bed frame with this headboard. It is free standing and should fit nicely over your mattress.

It is a fairly solid bed. The headboard doesn't "sway" at all because it is bolted to the frame with some heavy connection points. Well worth the money.

headboard yes , footboard needs a kit which you can easily find on line, don't miss out on this frame it's one in a million

I put my mattress on the frame and had no board and no trouble. Are you sure you put it together properly? Is there a box spring? I don't think it will stay on the frame without a box spring.

There is some assembly, but I wouldn't consider it too difficult. The headboard is one piece, the footboard is one piece and they are attached by assembling the middle pieces in between and then screwing down the bed slat supports. The hardest part is moving the pieces around as they are large and heavy. I have a very small bedroom, so it was a little difficult to move the pieces in the right place in order to assemble. But overall, the number of assembly steps isn't bad because you don't have to assemble all the drawers and such (just attach knobs).

This bed has 4 legs and it is a complete bed. It has the headboard, footboard, frame, and it comes with an allen wrench to tighten everything so you don't need any other tools. You will need a box spring or something else to support a top mattress but a foam mattress will need some additional support that is not included with this bed

The headboard and footboard are fully assembled when they arrive. They need to be attached to the frame w/the provided bolts. Went together very easily. My 13 y/o daughter and I put it together.

I'm pretty sure it can. The bed is what you see in the picture. It's a frame with four legs. The top (the place where the mattress or box springs sits) has 12 cross-slats to hold the bedding. There's no headboard or footboard. It's just a simple frame.

No, it is not available without headboard. The bed would be unstable and have unfinished edges if you assemble without headboard.

This is not a bed frame. It's just a mattress support that a mattress will sit on. There isn't really a way to attach anything to it. You would need to get a bed frame separately if you want a headboard.

Yes the footboard/headboard are separate from the rails they attach with screws. It should be fine as long as you attach the rails to the bed frame

I don't know if you can get it without the headboard, but in theory, you could just opt not to attach the headboard when you assemble it. The platform is 2 feet off the ground, but you'll probably put a box spring and mattress on top, which'll make the overall bed rather high.

We were able to attach our headboard but not our footboard to this frame. I'm not saying its impossible bc we didn't really try to once we figured out it would nt work we decided to leave off the footboardto save space.

Yes, you need a box spring. It only comes as headboard, footboard, and the frame. It's very nice. We're extremely happy with it.

Hi Jean - I purchased the queen size, but as Monique commented, it was also true to size and fits squarely over the box springs - Having a footboard should not be a problem. You will love this mattress - it is firm but very comfortable :)

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 .
