Does this bed frame require additional slats to support a spring box and mattress?

As respondents have already answered, it is complete self supporting - no additional slats needed.

No i have a split box spring and the frame holds it into place well it is a very sturdy frame

No. It comes with all parts needed and is easy to assemble. I bought two queens over two months ago and LOVE them! Very sturdy with no slats needed.

The slats included are curved (the ones that support bed) we don't have a box spring on ours but it is a thick matress with no problems. If yours is 8", that is really a thin bed, I would prob ably get a box

Yes, you need a box spring with this! There are 4 slats that go across and that is not enough for the mattress.

I did not use slats. The box spring is fully supported the length of either side and across the center.

No, just any support will do. Slats on a frame, closely spaced, or, just any type of solid support.

Nope. The rigid wooden slats seem to provide plenty of support for a mattress.

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. And the slats install onto the bed frame, not just resting on top of it.

yes it does come with the slats although mine did not come with a front and end support for the mattress platform making it unstable at the front and end of the bed.

It works with both. If you use a box spring it makes the bed really high though. I haven't tried it without but it does have slats for the mattress.

the top of this bed frame has slats on top as well, but I think that it would be fine. If you put this frame together correctly, you will love it. I had a boxspring that was really creaky and noisy--not any more. this frame is very sturdy and quiet...

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!

You will need a box spring. The 4 or 5 thin slats are not enough to support a mattress. Otherwise a great bed. Easy to put together. Looks more expensive than it is.

Yes- though note that this mattress requires a platform bed frame, or a box spring.

It comes with slats that replace a box spring. They are easy to install and on the king size mattress seem to give a lot of support to the bed. You could probably put plywood across on the lip of the frame but it really is not necessary.

There are flexible wooden slats that go across the frame and support the mattress. Before, I had a spring mattress directly on the frame and a few of the slats would slip off repeatedly. Once I bought a new mattress w/ a box spring, I had no problems. I don't think it's required, but I personally had less issues after I used one.

No box spring needed...we just put our son's memory foam mattress on the wooden slats. I would like to add that the bed frame sits about 12 inches off the floor so a box spring and mattress would make the bed very high.
