No metal support in the middle, but I don't think that you need to buy one. The weight of the bed should really be resting on the legs of the bed frame that the headboard is attached to....not resting on the legs of the head board.

There is no center support but we found IF you install properly and have the frame end supports firmly ON the floor it is quite sturdy.

Not quite sure what you have but this is basically three metal slats to support the bed in the middle they must be attached to wooden side slats hope that answers your question

No, it is supported between both piece's, that is they depend on each other

Mine came today (3/25/15) with plastic brackets. I'm worried about them supporting the metal cross bars and legs when in use. I'm not really sure who or how to complain or report this to. I guess I'll have to figure that out.

It comes with a center support but you don't have to use it.I use it because i have a large picture window with a large opening ..

Sorry, I just saw this. No, there are no supports and they keep falling, and they aren't lasting like the seller said. I won't buy again.

does not have cross brace in the middle. frankly there does need seem to be a need for it. there are legs in the middle that can be seen in the product image, but from extensive use so far the middle has not sagged.

Hi, it only has two supports. I'm pretty big also and have found it to be very strong.

If I remember correctly -- it does not include a support system. You have to buy that separately

I don't think I needed to add the center board, if I didn't wish to. I thought it would make 2 stronger beds, supported, if I did, so I did. If center support is not an issue then why not?

The middle bracket will support a bottle of water as well as add stability to the stand. I also was missing a bolt and had to find a replacement for that bracket. It was worth it. We have been enjoying the stand for several months now.

I'm not sure I have the answer you're looking for: I had just purchased a bed frame with the basic metal cross-bars for support (of the frame, I discovered) and a memory foam mattress. I needed this to support the mattress. They work perfectly together.

I ordered the metal support frame with mine, it works fine except the side legs are too close to the edge, very easy to stub your toes...and very painful.They really should have recesses the legs on the frame. I would think a regular box spring would work fine too.

Yes there are to supports just as the picture shows. You need to supply the base for storage.

The supports I bought came as singles. I think both should be replaced at the same time though, so I bought two.

If you can look at the installation booklet on the Friedrich website or call them you'll see there are only two support bolts that rest on the sill so buying a support might be the way to go.

I had to use the middle bracket for our sliding door for support. I also had to buy another drape
