Do you need boxsprings or a foundation for the twin sized mattress?

Yes, unless you have a bed frame that does not require a foundation or a boxsprings. For example, if you have a daybed that springs are build into the frame you will not need boxsprings or the foundation.

I am not entirely sure, but it always safer to have a firm base underneath the mattress for good lumbar support. :)

Depends on the bed frame u have. Mine was a platfOrm bed, so I didnt need one.

Our mattresses only require a flat and secure foundation. This includes a traditional box spring, a slatted bed frame, or even the floor-just as long as the resting area is flat and secure.

It needs a foundation. I put it in a RV with a platform and didn't need a boxspring. If you use it on a regular bedframe you will need a boxspring.

It was a mattress only on top of a hospital bedframe which had springs in the frame. I don't believe box springs would be necessary. It is a nice heavy foam....comfortable and does not squish down easily.

a firm mattress foundation is good or you can go with just a metal rack bedframe. I ordered this bed with this bedframe. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005WXNTLM/ref=oh_details_o07_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc;=1

It's not necessary, but you could ... just make sure the box spring has a structure of supports that are pretty close together so you don't end up with sagging sections. Remember, the foam mattress doesn't have as strong a "frame" to keep it from drooping in between slats. It works best on a platform frame -- try searching Amazon.com for "platform bed frame" to see a good idea of the support it should have. I have a queen-size Sleep Master metal bed frame foundation that works great (I just bought 12 risers to raise it up another few inches). Hope that helps!

No, it doesn't need a box spring. It comes with its own support system for the mattress.

I do use a box spring but one is probably not required as long as you have something flat to sit the mattress on.

You need something because the mattress will sink between the slats. A box spring will set the mattress way to high for the bed design though. I just flattened the box after I unpacked the bed pieces, and laid it over the slats. Worked perfect!

Any regular twin mattress works great with this bed frame! No boxspring is necessary.

No box spring needed. Just a solid foundation. Some people use a sheet of Masonite on their bed frame.

Yes you would need a foundation of some sort. I personally purchased an adjustable base and it works great. I demoed a few other high end mattresses before this, and I can say this is great.

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 ...

No, a boxspring is not needed. But, then again, comfort is a personal issue...

I don't use any kind of foundation or box spring with my mattress. My bed frame has a set of wooden slats spaced about one inch apart and it has worked perfectly. Foam mattresses generally are much lighter in weight and considerably denser than standard mattresses. The density means that they are less likely to sag or bend out of shape than an innerspring mattress.

I use it with a box spring, because I had one......if you put some plywood or wood paneling sheet and them thin foam would work without boxsprings.

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.
