do I need a box spring also ?

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.

No, you don't need a traditional box spring with this. Ours is on a wooden frame, and we have another one on a frame we purchased from Amazon that is metal, with wooden cross supports. Wasn't expensive and everyone who has used our guest room said they had a comfortable sleeping experience. Hope this helps.

You don't need a box spring necessarily but it would provide additional support. This has been a sufficient frame but I would not purchase it again - the middle leg broke within the first week. It's not terribly made, but it's not well made, either.

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. I have my mattress on a plain plywood board, and it works great.

Nope. The wooden slats are only a few inches apart so a box spring isn't necessary

I have it on a platform bed and it is great, so you will not need a box spring, as long as it have support (platform, slats or even a sheet of plywood if you are using a traditional bed frame).

My frame did not come with a box spring. It doesn't have much support, just enough to hold the mattress. In short yes.

Yes, I use a frame under the box spring. Whether it's necessary or not, I couldn't tell you. I just have a regular metal frame, nothing fancy.

No box spring is needed. Ours is sitting on plywood and is still very comfortable.

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! :)

You first need a bed frame but yes you need a box spring, you only get the head and foot board of this bed and it comes in pieces that you have to assemble.

Yes you need a box spring, I'm not sure about the weight capacity, that would also depend on your mattresses

You do not need a box spring. i simply went to Lowes and had them cut a few pieces of wood and used that instead. It worked well as a platform bed which was not too high for my 5 year old. Hope that helps.

You don't need a box spring. But make sure you get all the parts they're supposed to send you!

A box spring isn't needed. I went w/o one for a bit but it was kinda low.. So I added one later.

No, you do not need box spring. It comes with slabs. I have no place to put my old box spring, so i just use my box spring instead of the supplied slabs
