Can you put a box spring on with it? I see it says one isn't needed... But my fiance and I just bought a box spring mattress set today. Also weight lim

you can but i wouldnt suggest it, you will hear the wood hitting the wood and its going to be to high. not good. Box springs in the cost of mattress sets are very inexpensive, maybe see if they would let you take the boxspring back possible or try it and see what you think. Those are my thoughts. Hope all this helps. If noe of this works i have hundreds of others beds for sale, hows that on our full site. 6102773747 Good luck. Linda

no, i really think you need the box springs for support. a great mattress, but it needs a foundation.

I have a boxspring with it. because there are slats and not a platform, I do not think a mattress alone would work very well. Great bed - looks beautiful and appears way more expensive then it is. I highly recommend it.

Yes a box spring is needed. The foundation are slats which would be placed too far apart for just a mattress. Also the bed would be super low with no box spring

You can use it with just a mattress if you would like. My daughter has both the box spring and the mattress because she likes it a little higher. It really depends on your preference :) Enjoy it!!!! My daughter loves it!!!!

You wouldn't want to use a box spring for it would make the bed too high and probably add unnecessary weight. I love this bed! We have a tempurpedic matress and it all sits high enough that my 6ft husband does not "drop" down on in when he sits.

No need for a box spring, the slats are very sturdy. Besides, if you put a box spring on, I would think the mattress would tend to slide off when it is slept on.

You can try...I had to re-enforce the middle support. it was cheap and flimsy and honestly broke within days. I think it would look a little funky to have the box spring under the mattress on this bed. it's made to be used without a box spring.

For me, I use no box spring. My bed seems perfect without it. If you feel you need box springs you can always order it later.

You need something because the mattress will sink between the slats. A box spring will set the mattress way to high for the bed design though. I just flattened the box after I unpacked the bed pieces, and laid it over the slats. Worked perfect!

I can work with a foam mattress without a box spring. That is how I used it, however you have to be careful. Use it on a rug, otherwise it will move around and the supports will give way. Leading to the bed breaking.

I have it on a platform bed and it is great, so you will not need a box spring, as long as it have support (platform, slats or even a sheet of plywood if you are using a traditional bed frame).

The bed frame don't have the support to hold a box spring so the box spring will move a around on you when you lay it on the frame. So my opinion would be just to uses it with just a mattress. But I love the bed frame.

A box spring isn't needed. I went w/o one for a bit but it was kinda low.. So I added one later.

I have just a mattress on the frame, with no box spring. The bed doesn't really need a box spring, but I was still fearful of sagging. So, I ordered two bed boards the place in between the mattress and frame and have had no problems.

you can but recommended that you add a sheet of plywood between box spring and mattress to avoid/prevent sagging.

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.
