Can I use a box spring with the bed too?

I don't see why not. It might make it a little high, but otherwise it also might make it a little more comfortable, as there is no give to the frame.

Hi Kerri, I agree with Drea...the bed would be way too high with a box spring. It's quite high with just the mattress itself. It is a nice sturdy bed with plenty of room underneath for storage or a trundle though.

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.

Hi,It will be too high. In any case you do not need to use since the bed has many intermediate support bars. All you need is a mattress. However you could use a box spring if you want.

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.

Yes you do, but you can use any kind of box spring with it. I used the one from my regular bed.

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

There is really no reason to use a box spring at all. There are slats that go across the bed frame and that is all you need. If you did use a box spring, you would be rather high and your mattress might slide off trying to get in and out of bed.

This bed frame can use either. If you DO NOT use a box spring, I highly recommend using slats AND something called a "Bunkie Board" (similar to a box spring but a third of the height) which combined give added support and strength.

It is a really tall bed, so no, I wouldn't use a box spring, or you'll have to literally climb into bed.. It's not necessary, either, as there are wood support slats to hold up the mattress.

Box spring is definitely not needed. The bed is already tall enough as it is - we are joking about getting a small step ladder to get on it! :)

No, you will need to buy a twin size mattress for it. No box spring needed.

You don't use a box spring, you have to get a certain kind of bed frame instead. You can find them here on Amazon or at other major retailers. It seems odd, i know, but it actually works well because the bed will be the same height you are used to but you will end up with much more storage area underneath!

I guess you can but we do not. We put this on an old waterbed frame (like a platform). Just have the mattress on, no box spring.

You might be able to....I bought a box spring for my bed with a pillow top mattress and I didnt need the boxspring because it sat to high so I use the platform as the base...

You can use a box spring if you want a higher bed or a platform with wooden slats or a bunkie board (usually used for bunk beds) for a lower profile. I purchased a wire grid bed frame threw a bed skirt on it and you'd never know!

You could do that... But it would be more comfortable with a box spring I think. It comes down to personal preference. Yes you could do that though.

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.

Yes, you need a box spring with this! There are 4 slats that go across and that is not enough for the mattress.

You do not need a box spring. The floor of the bed is very stable with about 10 bars across.

There is no bed frame with this headboard you must provide your own. Yes, you will need a box spring.
