does it need a box spring ?

The furniture piece I purchased was strictly headboard only; there was not frame other than the legs for the board. Because of the height of our own pillowtop mattress and boxsprings my husband raised this higher than the limit it originally came with. He did the work and had it done quickly so it wasn't hard to figure out.

No , it is only a headboard that attaches to the bed frame. You must already have the mattress and box spring on the frame in order for it to fit without much of a gap.

Yes. There would be a gap between the headboard and the mattress because of the height of the headboard if you didn't use a box spring with it.

No, you will need to buy a twin size mattress for it. No box spring needed.

You do not need a box spring. The floor of the bed is very stable with about 10 bars across.

This does not require a box spring. It has a platform that fits under the bed frame.

The frame comes with it so you don't need a box spring. Everything is included!

I do not believe you need a box spring. I have the matress on a Bunkie Board in a bunk bed.

No box spring required. There are two legs that stick out like a fork. It just slides and tucks under the mattress.

No, it does require box springs. There are only three slats that comes with it and your mattress will droop between the slats. Also, the mattress is approx the same height as the footboard/siderails so you would be sitting on the footboard/sideboard not the bed.

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 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.

No. This bedframe does not require a box spring. I purchased one of these bed frames for a cabin. I was so pleased with it I purchased five more. I was concerned that it would not be very solid, but these bed frames are rock solid. In my opinion, they are a very good product at a very good price.

Definitely does not need a box spring. In fact you should not use a box spring. The bed is very thick. Place it on a frame and it will end up higher than the old frame/box spring/mattress combo. And I like the higher profile.

A box spring isn't necessary. The bed is designed to place the mattress directly on top of the frame.

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

There is a slatted base. The only reason you would need a box spring is if your mattress is really thin, just to keep it from being so low to the ground aesthetically, but not for functionality.

No! I have a really thick memory foam mattress on mine and it fits perfectly. No box spring needed!

No you do not need a box spring. It came with slats underneath. We added a few wooden blocks just to make it extra secure and a pretty thick mattress on the full bed.
