No box spring is needed, but as stated in an earlier response, you will need a couple extra slats.

No box spring is necessary if you have enough bed slates. My bed frame has about 20 wooden curved slats so I do not use a box spring. On a typical bed frame that only has 3 or 4 supports, you most definitely would need something. There is also the option of using a platform bed frame which is a solid board.

No, but you'll need a solid platform of some sort to put it on, unless you're just going to throw it on the ground.

Correct, no box spring required. We've had this bed for years now and have had 3 different mattresses on it with no problems at all (some made for bunk beds and some not). Great bed!!

This bed is really made as a platform. So technically you don't need the box spring. We just have the mattress. You "technically" could put the box spring but I think the bed will be way too high. You may need a step to get into the bed with both. Hope this helps.

You don't need/use a box spring with this bed. But yes, a regular mattress is all you need.

If you have a platform style bed frame, you won't need box springs. If you want a taller sitting bed or are using a bed frame that is not a platform style, I would recommend having box springs! Hope this helps you out!

These do not come with a box spring, it is only a mattress...... so, yes you do if you have a bed frame that requires a box spring you would need to purchase that in addition.

No, it does require box springs. There are only three slats that comes with it and your mattress will droop between the slats. Also, the mattress is approx the same height as the footboard/siderails so you would be sitting on the footboard/sideboard not the bed.

Depends what kind of frame you have. If the frame has cross beams that support the mattress throughout then you don't need a box spring. If your frame supports the mattress only on the edges then you need a box spring.

You need only Platform frame. No need for boxspring unless you want to make it too high.

No box spring needed. Use a reg twin mattress on both girls beds. Had them over a year now they are great! Very comphy

I also used the mattress on a trundle--no box springs needed. I guess the answer depends on where you plan to place the mattress. If on a slatted bed frame, no box springs needed. If on a different kind of foundation, or if you want the bed higher up, then you'd need to buy box springs separately.

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

Yes, its the frame as well as bars that support the mattress. You would not use a box spring with this bed frame, just a mattress.

Yes, you need a box spring. It only comes as headboard, footboard, and the frame. It's very nice. We're extremely happy with it.

The need for a box spring depends on the type of bed frame you have. My bed frame has the bars across from top to bottom to support the mattress so I don't use a box spring, however I do use a Mattress Support folding bed board to give my mattress extra support. With the mattress support boards it is a very comfortable mattress!!!

No. You definitely need a bed frame to properly support the mattress and box spring.
