Yes, I guess it could, it's really big. And has positions that ratch back & forth for your comfort. But, you can't put alot of weight on the back of it, it's only for support. I don't know how you would put the seat part under your mattress, unless you use the foam stuff that goes over your mattress. Depends on how big your bed is, it might work for a twin size, but you would need two of them for a single or queen. Hope, this helps you out. Happy Holidays.

It would look best with a box spring. Without it you will have a big gap between your bed and headboard.

If it's something you want to lean against a lot, I wouldn't. The bed is made of pressboard with a thin vainer over it, and I don't think it's that strong. If you just want something for decoration, or if the headboard is against the wall, it might work.

We used it for a king bed (split box springs which are actually two twin box springs), and it works great. As long as your headboard/footboard and side rails are sturdy, this will shore up your support in the middle.

No, just a mattress needed. Be careful about the headboard though, ours didn't have the attachments to connect the base of the bed to the headboard piece. Also when you lean back your head will go into the bookshelf space so you need lots of pillows to support.

Yes it does, however we have a king bed and never attached it, and it worked fine without. Maybe someone who is lighter weight or the bed is smaller may need to. I really don't know since we didn't use it.

If you are putting it on a frame, then yes. If you are putting it on a bed with a flat base, then no.

Yes - that's how we have it. The headboard attaches to the bed frame, on which the box spring and mattress sit.

Ii can't actually answer the question since we never received the parts we need to install it on a bed. I do know it will not work on anything larger than a twin bed, and it does not seem very strong, but wiggly when pulled on.

It MIGHT be possible to use against the wall without attaching to a bed frame, but then you would have to figure out a way to anchor it to the wall. I do not think It would be possible to simply "lean" it against the wall.

If you are talking about the head of the bed that goes up and down, I would say no. I put it at the top of my mattress or the side, and it works great. Sorry if the does not help you.

This probably depends on the bed frame. We have a flat piece of plywood under ours. Works perfectly! No box spring required. :)

I think it does. If there is no box spring the bed would be too low and possibly below the start of the velvet part of the headboard.

It is very suitable with out a headboard. I've used it without a headboard since i bought it.

not sure, as I use it on a single bed but you could pin it so it doesn't move!

I believe it does. My bed hardly moves and does not sink when I stand in, when some one else is in it, or when other things go on.

I would think that it would work on the floor. I'm not using a box spring either,it's just sitting on a portable bed frame.
