does it need a box spring ?

The furniture piece I purchased was strictly headboard only; there was not frame other than the legs for the board. Because of the height of our own pillowtop mattress and boxsprings my husband raised this higher than the limit it originally came with. He did the work and had it done quickly so it wasn't hard to figure out.

No , it is only a headboard that attaches to the bed frame. You must already have the mattress and box spring on the frame in order for it to fit without much of a gap.

Yes. There would be a gap between the headboard and the mattress because of the height of the headboard if you didn't use a box spring with it.

Yes, you need a box spring with this! There are 4 slats that go across and that is not enough for the mattress.

I would say yes, it does required a box spring. The base is only 7inches off the floor and with a mattress 9 inches thick this probably would be too low. I have used a box spring and in total the top of the mattress is 25 inches off the floor

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

Yes. We've been using it without a box spring for 6 months without issue. Love the mattress.....

Yes it does, and also you don't need a box spring for it either. I'm pretty happy with it.

You do not use a box spring with this bed. It would make the mattress too high. There are round metal rods that support the mattress. You need a mattress and that is it. I did place a thin board atop the metal rods to keep the shape of the mattress, but the board is not necessary.

No box spring needed. I bought one and the bed fit perfectly. the box spring might make the mattress to high

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.

I got it for bunk beds. But yes I think it requires a box spring of some sort.

No, not unless you put a piece of plywood on it first. Also, without a box spring your mattress would be really close to the floor.

You do not need a box spring. The floor of the bed is very stable with about 10 bars across.

You don't need a box spring if you have a platform bed. If it's for a regular frame bed you need box spring.

It doesn't need a box spring! We placed ours on the wood slats for my son's bunk bed and it works great..

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!!!

It does not require the box spring. But if you do the bed will be very high

No, you do not need a box spring. I have my mattress on a plain plywood board and it works fine.
