I previously had a foam mattress and the regular box spring DID NOT support it. I bought a slated platform bed frame and am so happy I did. I made a world of difference in the support. Get a good platform bed frame... all are not equal. It creates a nice storage area for roll out storage bins and I am very happy with my mattress and the bed frame set now.

I bought a 12 inch memory foam mattress and a regular queen box spring for it and that combination was perfect. Hope that helps.

Yes you do and I recommend this one I got off of Amazon: Night Therapy Platform Metal Bed Frame/Foundation Set(SmartBase + Metal Brackets for Headboard & Footboard + Bed Skirt - Queen) - No Box Spring needed . It is one amazing frame support for under the bed. I ordered that and put mattress that I also ordered from Amazon on it and it is great.

My review is for the original foundation. It has a wire network of support. The new Elite has replaced the wires with wide metal slats and increased the weight capacity. Either is fine. I use a bed skirt with mine and a regular mattress. I believe your all foam one would be fine with either as long as you use a bed skirt so the mattress is not touching the metal. If you want a completely flat surface you could place a 1/4 sheet of plywood on the foundation and then the mattress on that. I jope this info helps

A good base maybe sinc it is very thick & heavy. By base, i mean it should be something sturdy enough to hold the weight of both the mattress and the person using it. CBag is right, platform frame or slats are good options.

It needs a foundation. I put it in a RV with a platform and didn't need a boxspring. If you use it on a regular bedframe you will need a boxspring.

Hi, I like a really high mattress do you think I can use a box spring and matress?Will it hold the excess weight of the box spring? Thank you for your help!

I have the king as well. Side-to-side it fits pretty well, but the foundation is a little longer than the mattress. Make sure you let it air out for a couple days. It's kind of amazing how long they take to fully expand. I Know they say in their literature that the sizes can vary, so take a tape measure after it and see what the dimensions are.

I used a platform bed frame that has multiple slats and no need for a box spring. It is firm and very comfortable, perfect for that platform bed.

a firm mattress foundation is good or you can go with just a metal rack bedframe. I ordered this bed with this bedframe. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005WXNTLM/ref=oh_details_o07_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc;=1

When I bought this mattress I also bought Sleep Master Platform Metal Bed Frame/Mattress Foundation, Queen. This provides a nice foundation for the mattress, the mattress and frame are very light and easy to move, and there is storage space underneath the frame. If you have a standard frame built to take a box spring then you made need a box spring or lay some plywood on the frame first. But I just went for the mattress/Sleep Master frame combo. For $400 what the heck. I'm very happy with it.

It's a good, supportive foundation. I'm no mattress expert, but don't see any reason why this box spring would not be a good fit for memory foam.

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!

I bought a rather thick mattress but no boxsprings because I wanted comfort. It wasn't the cheapest nor was it the most expensive, I guess middle of the road. I also put pillows on the backside.

We kept the box springs we had, put a piece of plywood on top of those, and then added the new mattress. Covered the plywood with a bedskirt to protect the mattress. Added sturdiness. Love our mattress by the way!

The person that suggested this foundation to me for my memory foam mattress just sat the frame on the floor and used it that way. I am using a wood Bed frame with headboard.
