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

You do not need a box spring. It is extremely comfortable based on memory foam. You do need a bed frame for support. I do not have a box spring but do use a wire frame which I also ordered from Amazon. Enjoy!.

You could use a box spring, but it isn't necessary. This bed is a platform bed. There aren't "slats," but a solid piece of plywood.

I do use a box spring but one is probably not required as long as you have something flat to sit the mattress on.

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, you don't need a traditional box spring with this. Ours is on a wooden frame, and we have another one on a frame we purchased from Amazon that is metal, with wooden cross supports. Wasn't expensive and everyone who has used our guest room said they had a comfortable sleeping experience. Hope this helps.

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 .

Correct, no box spring required. We've had this bed for years now and have had 3 different mattresses on it with no problems at all (some made for bunk beds and some not). Great bed!!

It doesn't need a box spring, I bought a platform bed frame for mine and it's fine. If you put it on a box spring you're going to need a ladder to get into bed, depending on frame height. Technically it doesn't need anything under it if it's inside a bed frame.

No box spring is needed, but as stated in an earlier response, you will need a couple extra slats.

No, you will need to buy a twin size mattress for it. No box spring needed.

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

You are correct. My daughter has this bed and it does not require a box spring. We love it!! Very easy to assemble.

It is a really tall bed, so no, I wouldn't use a box spring, or you'll have to literally climb into bed.. It's not necessary, either, as there are wood support slats to hold up the mattress.

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

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.
