Do I need a boxspring with this bed or just the mattress?

I just used a mattress - a thicker memory foam one. I don't think there is room for both box springs and a mattress.

No, this bed doesn't need a box spring. The surface that the mattress rests on is solid wood (not slats or springs like some beds) so a box spring isn't necessary. You could probably use on if you wanted , but it's not needed.

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 do not need a box spring. I have my mattress on a plain plywood board, and it works great.

Depends what kind of frame you have. If the frame has cross beams that support the mattress throughout then you don't need a box spring. If your frame supports the mattress only on the edges then you need a box spring.

This is only the mattress! A box spring would need to be purchased seperately. However, the mattress is comfortable enough to be used without a box spring.

No, a boxspring is not needed. But, then again, comfort is a personal issue...

Hey I own this bed, and you do not need a box spring, it is made for use with just a memory foam mattress

Get any platform frame to rest the mattress directly on the frame. You don't need a box mattress.

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

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

No you do not need a box spring. It came with slats underneath. We added a few wooden blocks just to make it extra secure and a pretty thick mattress on the full bed.

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.

The mattress does not require a boxspring-I purchased it for my son (6'02" and 220 lbs.) who is in college. He has it on a captains bed and he says it is surprisingly comfortable. The mattress arrives in a box and springs out when you open it. We have purchased another one for our grandchildren and placed it on a daybed. It has been an excellent investment.

The need for a box spring depends on the type of bed frame you have. My bed frame has the bars across from top to bottom to support the mattress so I don't use a box spring, however I do use a Mattress Support folding bed board to give my mattress extra support. With the mattress support boards it is a very comfortable mattress!!!

No. You don't need the boxsprings if you want a regular height bed. I have innerspring mattresses on the base and they are fine.

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