Any large framed people who have bought this mattress? I am 6'5" and 300lbs. Is this supportive or is it just a foam board?

It's straight foam. Mine sinks in a little bit when I lay on it so it's not really supportive

Yes, a queen mattress would fit on a full size frame but it would hang over the sides. Also, I am almost 300lbs myself and the mattress is fine for me but i am thinking about adding a few more inches because I am a side sleeper and my hips hit the bottom.

I am extremely happy with my purchase. I was worried at first but so far I am glad I took the chance. This is by far the best mattress I have owned. I have tried Ikea, Simmons, Beautyrest, etc. I did build my own box spring and put in extra support. I believe that helps also. I cant speak for the bed you are talking about but I have purchased a few Ikea beds and all have been slated bed base which didnt provide enough support for my back. All I can do is vouch for the mattress. It is excellent but I suppose that if it doesnt have a good platform to be on it will probably give.

My husband weighs 200 and I weigh 150 but we have a memory foam mattress that is VERY heavy and this frame holds all with no problem. We had to drill holes and put screw in each slat to make it really sturdy. Note that it's a good idea to have plenty of room to walk around the bed. It doesn't show in the picture but the legs stick out. You will crack your shin on it if you need to get around the edge and you don't have a lot of room. Good luck!

I like this bed. After a year I have had no problems. But I have a foam mattress and am considering a getting a new mattress which may be heavier. I'd like to know if anyone has had problem with a heavier mattress.

I have had the board for the past 6 months and have loved it as my first long board and still continue to enjoy it. I haven't had that much weight on it yet but I'm @200lbs and have no issue at all. Board is not super stiff so it has a little flex to it which I like personally. Cheers!

It is a very narrow frame with very close slats and covered with cloth. It works great, came in one large piece for the queen sized bed and supports the all memory foam mattress. It does not creek or make noise. I used to have 2 pieces of plywood for support since I could not find this narrow bunky board. No problems and is perfect for foundation support.

I bought it for my kid, but it's a full board. Seems pretty strong and can definitely support my 215 lb frame (not that I'm doing tricks with it).

The mattress would definitely work for you, the frame though may not I'm about 200lbs and it creeks a little when I move. I definitely wouldn't jump on to the bed lol. I'm not thrilled with how the frame was made it doesn't have a whole lot of support bars like I thought it did. I will say that I've had 2 kids on the bed at one time with me and it hasn't broken, one was 150lbs and the other 100lbs. So it may be okay. You can find other frames on here for pretty cheap. Or you can check sleepys and when they have a sale buy a frame. The have really good deals. This mattress is wonderful though so its worth buying it for just this part.

I haven't heard a single sound from my frame. I'm a heavy person (300lbs) and I've sat on the side, crawled across it, sat in the middle, and tossed and turned (breathing problems with allergies, not the bed!) and NO SQUEAKS! It feels very sturdy and solid. I haven't JUMPED on it, but so far I'm very happy with mine! The mattress was a little firmer than I was expecting and it took me a few nights to get used to it, but it's very comfortable - and also very quiet!

Yes, I have one and it's fine, but I am about 175 lbs. If concerned, you can always bolster frame.

Nope you should be fine it is fairly smooth and def sturdy enough. You could always lay something down on top of frame such as piece of plywood then soft sheet or blanket over that then air mattress on top and you def would have no problems. I've seen then cheaper less sturdier frame in person, make sure you get this one the sleep master elite IMO.

I am only a 5'2" older woman, so I couldn't attest to one with your measurements; however, I would not guess that it would be that supportive for you. I have to have it up against my headboard in order to be completely supportive the way I want. That's the best I can do.

We actually have a memory foam mattress. I actually didn't like the mattress at all until we got this frame. It is such a sturdy frame, I actually wonder if it might make a world of difference for our other "regular" mattress. The quality of support makes me think that it could possibly help just about any mattress to feel better. Also, we do have a box spring and memory foam mattress. I must agree with the other person who said it might be too tall for most people. We are both 6-feet tall and even I have to climb into bed!

I'm right there, and for the two weeks I used it, it was just fine. Having a background in foam rubber products, I can say the mattress is a good one for heftier people. As long as you don't double up, you should be fine.

Steve,I'm about your size and I have this same model in a twin size. It is very well made and supports me fine. It comes with plenty of slats for mattress support.
