I have a king size bed and a box spring with it - will this bed still work if I just use my mattress?

I only use a mattress with this bed. I think using a box spring also would make it feel too high. I think it is made to use with just a mattress and no box spring.

Yes that's why I made this purchase because you don't need a box spring you only need a mattress!

Hi Kerri, I would not suggest using a box spring with this bed. It would be too high. It's an awesome bed btw. Easy to assemble.

The platform bed works in place of your box springs and slats are not needed. If you currently have a bed frame, like a sleigh bed or something similar, and you need to be sure that this platform will fit inside the bed frame, you should measure very carefully. We did not have a bed frame so it was not an issue for us.

Might work. Our mattress was on floor because of wife's issues. If box spring is on a standard bed frame with little casters probably ok. If mattresses are in Scandinavian style bed with a small wooden box holding mattress it will not work. I hope this helps.

Yes, if you don't plan on using a box spring. Also if you use a spring mattress it may damage the springs over time due to repeated lifting.

I don't use box springs- I have an IKEA bed utilizes slats, and this mattress sleeps fine on it. You can use box springs or not.

It really isn't designed for use with a box spring. If you use one the mattress and headboard would be pretty much even with each other which pretty much defeats the point. But this is a nice bed for the price. It looks great and can be assembled. Fairly quickly.

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

No, we just put the mattress on it. If you put a box spring, the mattress will be too high. The picture is what our little girl's bed looks like with just the mattress.

No. You have 1 box spring for the queen which is larger than one of the 2 box springs that come with the king. The king is made up of basically two twin box springs.

It depends on the mattress and box spring but my mattress is very slightly higher than the foot of the bed.

We use ours in a Murphy bed and there is no room for a box spring. We had to buy a foam mattress topper as the mattress is very firm (hard) and not comfortable without the topper.

Hi. My mattress that I bought was a king size and it was true to size. My mattress fits perfectly on the box springs. I get a good night sleep as well. Hope this answers your question

Our bed does not require a box spring. Our mattress fits directly on the slats of the bed. It works great!

No! I have a really thick memory foam mattress on mine and it fits perfectly. No box spring needed!

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.

You will need to support your mattress, with either box springs, or a box. A box looks like a box spring, but it is no more than a spacer / mattress support ...
