It says that no box spring is required but if you want to use a box spring does that work too?

You can. It'll make the bed tall. But it'll be more comfortable. Really depends how thick your mattress is

Yes it works. I would not use a box spring. The frame and a matress are enough and as for looks makes an appealing bed.

The headboard attaches to the bed frame, which is not supplied with the headboard. If you have one of those new taller bed frames, you wouldn't need a box spring, but if you have the older and more traditional short bed frames, then a box spring is required.

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

I honestly don't think a box spring is necessary, even though the slats are suprisingly sturdy and fit well and secure in the base of the bed. I actually bought this frame because I wanted a bed withouth a box spring. Hope that helps!

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!

No, you do not need a box spring. I have my mattress on a plain plywood board, and it works great.

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

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

You do not use a box spring with this bed. It would make the mattress too high. There are round metal rods that support the mattress. You need a mattress and that is it. I did place a thin board atop the metal rods to keep the shape of the mattress, but the board is not necessary.

You do not HAvE to use a box spring. We like our bed to be high off the ground so we chose too. It works either way and looks great!

No you do not need a box spring. It came with slats underneath. We added a few wooden blocks just to make it extra secure and a pretty thick mattress on the full bed.

I don't think it necessarily needs a box spring, but your mattress would be more comfortable with one. Box springs help displace the pressure of the springs in the mattress. The platform will keep the springs from bouncing and you end up with spring in your back. This is from personal experience. Can always get a box spring later if the platform isn't to your liking.

No, it does not require a box spring. There really is no perfect mattress for a box spring, but the firmer the better in my opinion. Depends on your level of comfort.

I do not believe you need a box spring. I have the matress on a Bunkie Board in a bunk bed.

The beauty of this bed is that is does not need a box spring. It is a platform bed. I did not use a box spring but i would think that you could if you wanted to .
