Do you need boxsprings with this or can the mattress go right on top?

You do not need a box sprimgs, but make sure you either get a matress that has actual springs in them or a bunk bed matress that already has the wooden base built in. beware of the matress that is just stuffed with fibers and stuffing.

The slats are wide apart. So I bought a compressed board at lowes for $20, had it cut to fit the gaps and put mattress on it. It saves the extra height of the box springs

No - just a mattress. I would purchase ply board to go under the bed though, the boards that hold the bed up are extremely flimsy.

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

These supports take the place of typical wooden slats. Your box spring will go down first, then the mattress.

It requires box springs. I highly recommend you buy thin box springs unless you are really tall. Between the box springs and the mattress, it sits high....but, I LOVE this bed! Had a few issues with the slats falling out, so we had to use wood screws to secure them tighter, but holding up now.

There is a slatted base. The only reason you would need a box spring is if your mattress is really thin, just to keep it from being so low to the ground aesthetically, but not for functionality.

I have a slatted bed frame, similar to an Ikea bed frame and no, you do not need a box spring. I agree with another reviewer that this mattress is very firm and I also have put a topper over it. I'm not a heavy person but when I sleep on my side, I can feel the slats on the bottom of the bed on my hips. I don't have this problem any more with the topper but it was an extra expense I wasn't expecting.

Yes, unless you have a bed frame that does not require a foundation or a boxsprings. For example, if you have a daybed that springs are build into the frame you will not need boxsprings or the foundation.

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

Higher than I thought it would. I have a 17" drop on my King pillow top mattress. Does NOT need a boxspring. Top of it is as high as my dresser at about 30". The bottom of mattress starts at about 14".

Yes you can put your box springs and top mattress on the bed frame. IT is made for that. I had no problems with it.

No you don't need a box spring unless you just like your mattress to sit really high. I have a memory foam mattress and I thought I would sink right through because I don't have a box spring but the frame alone was very supportive.

We do not recommend you place this mattress on top of an existing mattress. However we do recommend using either a platform base, box springs, metal bed base or an adjustable bed base to support the mattress. Please let us know if you have any further questions.

You don't have to use a box spring. You can use a platform of some sort to support it, or you can buy a foundation for it as I did for another mattress. There's a few ways to set it up so that it's right for you.

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

it doesn't require a boxspring however the mattress would be lower than pictured

The instructions say that a box spring is not necessary. I had both, and it does put the mattress higher than the foot board & you can only see about a foot of the head board, which I don't mind. But the metal slats are pretty close together & can easily hold just the mattress.

No. The mattress is plenty high enough and platform beds weren't meant to have both boxspring and mattress.
