Air mattress? Has anyone tried using this frame with an air mattress?

What is the clearance under the bed would 6" high plastic bins slip under for storage?

If it were me, I would NOT use an air mattress on it. There are too many steel rails or "edges" on this frame that can, over time and pressure, cause a rupture in an air mattress, compared to laying an air mattress on a box-spring or the floor, where all the pressure of the air mattress is evenly distributed.

Yes, my wife and I use an 8" memory foam mattress on this frame, and it works well.I was surprised, and did not expect it to work as well as it does.

NO. It is only the frame to raise an existing Air Mattress. A complete "bed" with Fold Away Frame AND Air Mattress may be purchased, but this is NOT complete. It is Frame only...and it works great!

I have not tried to fit a queen sized air mattress in it, but I can fit two twin size air mattresses in it.

The bed frame don't have the support to hold a box spring so the box spring will move a around on you when you lay it on the frame. So my opinion would be just to uses it with just a mattress. But I love the bed frame.

I have been sleeping on an air mattress consistently for 10 years....and it is always on a box spring and frame. You would never know it's not a traditional mattress/bed.

Not having tried it. I don't know. But the pressure in a big air mattress while large may not be a great as an erecise ball under load. But for the few dollars involved. Try it before you chuck yhe exercise ball

I use a very thick air mattress along with a topper....maybe not quite as thick as it would be with a box spring and mattress but think it would be close. I have a dust ruffle on mine.

No - I use it on an air mattress though because sometimes the air circulating in the mattress is cold. It works great for that!

Nice and sturdy. But I dont know about an air mattress..I'd probably cover it with something first.

I used a regular bed frame and it works perfectly fine for me. I also used a traditional mattress without any problems. Hopefully that helps.

I bought it for a higher end air mattress. The mattress has a continuous internal pump to keep mattress filled to optimum. It (the frame) is quite sturdy in my opinion. I think it would be fine for regular boxspring/mattress or foam mattress. With my queen air mattress sitting atop of this frame, I have to do a mini little hop up to get up onto the bed as the air mattress I have is a bit more in depth than a reg box spring mattress. It is easy to put together, just don't bend the slats too intensely as they may crack. I followed rule of thumb with the wooden slats as you would with hardwood or laminate flooring, I let it sit and acclimate to apartment temperature for over 24 hours. I think the way the slats curved upwards on both sides allows for more weight. It did give me needed under bed storage for my tiny apt. I am older and disabled and could lift it and put it together, and got needed storage, which was the best selling points for me.

We had a memory foam mattress that we put on the frame and it works great. Still very happy with the frame!

I'm not sure what kind of air mattress you're planning to use, but I would think a piece of plywood or similar would be more supportive for an air mattress to be placed on this platform bed.

As long as the spring futon mattress can bend then yes. We use ours as a lounger and we like it a lot. We would like it even more if we had purchased a mattress with more spring in it. We are using a memory foam futon mattress with no springs and it can flatten out pretty quickly. As far as the frame, purchase without worry. We love ours

Yes, I purchased this along with a coleman double high air mattress for my stepdaughter and it worked great!
