Can this headboard be used with the mattress with a spring box? we dont have a bed frame as such.

I think it depends more on the frame you have because the headboard attaches to the frame - not the mattress and box spring.

I use a regular box spring and standard metal frame under it and have the headboard attached to the metal frame. The headboard looks great I just love it. It's slightly lighter in real life than the pictures. Amazon doesn't sell the complete bed ( the matching frame with would hide the box spring) but an easy solve was getting a tailored bed skirt. It really looks great. As far as the metal platform you're referring to I'd assume as long as there is somewhere on the bed to attach the headboard to it should work. But I think just a standard box spring frame would be all that's needed. I hope that was helpful.

I'm pretty sure it can. The bed is what you see in the picture. It's a frame with four legs. The top (the place where the mattress or box springs sits) has 12 cross-slats to hold the bedding. There's no headboard or footboard. It's just a simple frame.

You also need to have the metal frame that supports the box spring and mattress. The frame then attaches to the headboard

It doesn't require a box spring. It makes the bed extremely high if you do. I don't remember there being a substantial gap between the headboard and bed. I would have noticed if there is, that type of thing bugs me.

I don't see why not. The bed might be a little more firmer since the box spring does add a small smidge of flex. The bed that I have is sitting on the box spring from my last bed simply because it would be too low without it.

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.

Head board comes with hardware to attach a metal bed frame to it. As far as I know, a box spring will be required to space and support the mattress in relation to the head board. That is what I did and it worked/looked perfect.

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.

If the frame is the right size and there's something solid for the mattress to lay on I don't see why not. Can't say from experience because I have a box spring though.

The frame is only a little over a foot high, so if you use a box spring it won't make the bed too tall. However, the bed might become really firm. (Just my guess.)

Yes i used a box spring with this bed. It sits a bit high and covers more headboard but i like it

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 .

You should be okay but call the vendor to be sure. I also have mine on 1x4 pine slats with 2" or so spaces in between the boards. I am sure you don't need a box spring though. The bed is absolutely fantastic!

The instructions say that a box spring is not necessary. I had both, and it does put the mattress higher than the foot board & you can only see about a foot of the head board, which I don't mind. But the metal slats are pretty close together & can easily hold just the mattress.

Yes it can. I bought the bed a yea ago and love it! I use a box spring and a mattress (of course) and they work very well.

Yes, its the frame as well as bars that support the mattress. You would not use a box spring with this bed frame, just a mattress.
