Do you need slats to support the mattresses? I didn't notice it saying anything in the description...thanks

It comes with slats and it takes a while to assemble because there are about 200 plastic clips to install. Your fingers will be tired but it does work well once assembled.

Everything is included..seemed flimsy as we were putting it together but once you put the mattress supports in it's rock solid...both my husband and I have been in the upper bunk. Great buy - I would definitely get another one!

I wouldn't recommend doing that. It's a good bed but I just have a mattress on and I can't imagine the slats supporting a box spring and a mattress

You'd certainly still need slats. The gap between cross rails is probably 18 inches. A single mattress on these rails would be painful!

It comes with slats, but does require a box spring if you want your mattress height to be similar to what is pictured.

I purchased the double bed, so I can only speak to that one. It came with slats and a middle support for the double, so I should think that the larger sizes would have the support as well, and probably also the slats. We are happy with the bed. It's simple, and for the price, no complaints. It looks nice, and doesn't take up too much room in the tiny bedroom where it is located.

I put them on the slats. My bed did not have a center support rail. You should be good with them on either.

The slats alone might pose an issue - I did not try it once I saw how far they would be spaced. I placed a plywood board from Lowe's ($12) on the slats to support my memory foam mattress and it works great.

No, it comes with slats that you nail on. I don't know the exact number, but they hold the mattress well.

you don't need any slats. It is designed for a memory foam mattress to lay right over the top. It eliminates the box spring, I should have put this thing in years ago!

It comes with slats that are all connected and spread out under the mattress. They are about half a inch apart. It has held up extreamly well, and my son is ruff on it.

A box spring is optional (not necessary). Bed comes with a slat support system. Thanks, ModHaus

They are definitely dead bolted in. Very secure! Slats are provided for mattress/box spring support once they were in place the frame was steady and firm. No bed frame needed. I had to make sure myself because my son was going to have to get used to having a full size bed. Funny thing you would never know it was once his crib. So worth saving the crib.

Yes. The slats are supported by the outside rails and feet in the center of the bed. Seems to be a very sturdy design.

It does not have slats you will need a box spring. You cannot use the frame without a box spring

The slats replace the box spring. But a box spring and mattress will also work. It is a great bed for my son.

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

The wood slats are about 12 inches off the ground and support my conventional mattress without a box spring. I would however recommend a box spring if you are using a foam mattress
