I have a cal king that fits, there is still room on the sides to fit a wider mattress...If they even make wider mattresses. Yes you need a box spring. I love this bed! I put it together by myself...but it really takes two ppl...I just couldn't wait to get it up :) get compliments on it all the time!

This bed fits both California King and Standard King, being able to fit either by changing the frame mounting points. This is described in the instructions we received, but I don't believe in the description on Amazon. You will definitely need a box spring, as there are only 3 crossbeams holding up the mattress, and using only a mattress would be too low. We have absolutely loved the bed frame so far.

You do need a box spring (lower or high profile). The mattress will need to be king size not Cali king

If you are in college or burn incense and hang tie die sheets in your window, then you do not need a box spring. To determine how big of a mattress you need. First determine where you are going to put your mattress. If the mattress does not fit there, get a smaller one. Second decide if another person will be sleeping with you. If yes then get a Queen size. If there is a chance that two people will be sleeping with you then get a King you stud muffin

Not sure what you mean, just a standard base with a box spring? yes. It's an awesome mattress, just make sure you DOUBLE CHECK the size shipped prior to unwrapping

We didn't buy box springs. You don't need them bc they have slats and box springs would make them too high. The mattresses were standard twin. I hope that helps. The bed is a good sturdy one that can fit easily if space is limited.

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

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.

Yes it has to have a box spring. You would be way too low with just a mattress. You can get a good box spring at Big Lots for hardly any cost if you have one of those stores near you.

Yes you will need a box spring it only comes with the slats to place the box spring and mattress on.

If you buy the queen size frame the dimensions are 84.9 x 61.5 x 52.1 inches so a 60" x 80" box spring and mattress will fit easily. If you look at the Product Details for the different size frames it will give you the size and weight assembled.

The mattress is firm enough that if your bed has four or five slats to hold it up you should be OK. We still bought a box foundation instead of a box springs. You can try it and get a box springs if you find that it sags.

I use an 18 inch matress. It comes a little above the bottom part of the headboard. No box springs necessary. This bed had the most sturdy slats system I have ever used.

you do NOT have to have a box spring. I don't, and the only think I'm not 100% happy with is that my pillow slides up at night under the head board. but depending on how thick your mattress is, that may not be an issue. mine is 8".

Yes you will need one, we just used our old box spring. The mattress is firm but is still holding up for the price not bad.

you need either slats or box spring. Also,1 year later and I hate this mattress so I don't thinkI would recommend it. Where as I would wake up rested, now I wake up with my back sore.I think its the support diminishing overtime but you would expect a mattress to be good for a few years no?
