does it require a box spring and mattress or just a mattress

Just a mattress. I put a bunk bed board under because the mattress is a memory foam and I thought it added a little stability with that type of mattress. But it was not necessary.

I bought this bed for my 3 yr old granddaughter. Her parents chose not to buy a box springs because it would make the bed too high for the 3 yr old. My daughter in law is pregnant and she says the bed is okay but not super comfortable without a box springs.

I would use a box spring to keep the metal bars from bending. If they were stronger it would be fine without.

For a small kid (up to 5or 6 years) a mattress would be ok, otherwise a box spring and mattress should be used.

No it won't need a box spring. I wouldn't recommend this bed frame. It is what it is. Don't expect much for the price you pay

You can use it with just a mattress if you would like. My daughter has both the box spring and the mattress because she likes it a little higher. It really depends on your preference :) Enjoy it!!!! My daughter loves it!!!!

The photo shown is only one mattress - no box spring is needed. We use it as a platform bed. It has metal slats for support.

A box spring or a platform bed is necessary. I bought a platform bed similar to the one in the main picture

You do need a box spring (lower or high profile). The mattress will need to be king size not Cali king

Queen sized mattress only, and since it is a platform, no box springs required. Also recommend if you're thinking about a cheap mattress - don't do it. I tried a memory foam queen mattress for $250. Mattress looked good and reviews were okay...but...it totally sucks! Sleeping on a different bed in a guestroom while saving for a real mattress. - PH

No, mattress only. You need to have frame and box springs to put mattress on.

Definitely does not need a box spring. In fact you should not use a box spring. The bed is very thick. Place it on a frame and it will end up higher than the old frame/box spring/mattress combo. And I like the higher profile.

Box spring is not required. You can use a box spring if you feel that the mattress is too low from the ground.

Yes - it's a basic frame so requires an entire bed - mattress and box spring.

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

It is a fram no mattress, because it's a platform bed you don't need a box spring just the mattress. You do have to build the bed in comes in pieces with instructions

It does require a box spring. Although you could easily make it a platform bed by laying down a sheet of plywood ontop of the, included slats.

You do not need a box spring. The wood slats are fine. I have a memory foam mattress on the slats.

We used a mattress and box spring. It looks very nice and my daughter loves it.

You don't need/use a box spring with this bed. But yes, a regular mattress is all you need.

We used a mattress and sheet of plywood underneath.....otherwise yes, you have to use box springs and mattress.

It only comes with a box spring and mattress so you have to buy a frame separately.
