Since there is no headboard, does the bed slide away if you lean against the wall? Does the mattress slide off of the slats?

The bed does not slide away from the wallis you lean back, but it is easy to move for cleaning purposes. Also - the mattress is seated into the frame, so it does not move on the slats.

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, it does not. That is why we bought a foam mattress for it, they are dense and don't shift. My husband bought foam pipe covering that he put around edges and strapped down with tie straps so the frame would not damage the walls. We also bought round 2" furniture movers to set all the legs in (we have tile floors) so easy to move for cleaning. The bed does not slide around due to the dense foam mattress. Love this bed frame! Works great!

I don't think so...it seems like it may slide off. Maybe someone else will answer. We really like bed though...its for my 15yo daughter, so she uses all the storage.

No, it leans against the wall. It's well made (you assemble), but once it's put together it's very sturdy. It seems to be designed so that when you add weight it gets more firm.

No. My bed hasn't been used so I'm not sure about the slipping/shifting factor but will find out this weekend when my son returns.

There's nothing to keep the mattress from sliding off, it just sits on top of the wood. This hasn't been a problem for me until I fold it down from a sofa to a bed, the mattress slips down and I have to drag it back into place each time.

It slides away from the wall. Mine sets 4 inches away from the wall when up and clears when reclining.

The beds have a metal bar at the bottom by the feet which keeps them from sliding down. However, if you don't have a bed frame you cannot keep the mattress' together and that is a nightmare to deal with. We do not use a bed skirt because we have a bed frame that covers the sides of the beds.

The legs of the headboard attaches to the bed frame- mine screwed in easily. You could put this in front of a window since it doesn't need to be attached to a wall!

It is a fairly solid bed. The headboard doesn't "sway" at all because it is bolted to the frame with some heavy connection points. Well worth the money.

It does have a lip all the way around that prevents the mattress from sliding. I love this bed frame. It looks great & has held up really well since we bought it several years ago.

it does not come with slats. You need a box spring with this particular bed frame. Hope this helps

I use a mattress and box spring. Without both the gap between the headboard and mattresses might be to large.

No, actually the reverse is true. The problem we encountered was that we already had a bedframe with a headboard that will not accommodate the bedding set. We ended up giving it my in-laws to use on the guest bed for the kids when they come over because all they have is an inflatable twin mattress, no headboard, butted up against the wall and that works out just fine. Hope that helps.

Hey, Linda - Glad I could help. The slats stay in place - they don't make noise when the unit is turned on high, which is a HUGE plus. :)

We actually have windows behind the bed. So it is up against the sills. I'm pretty sure you don't have to put it flush against a wall. Perhaps if you put a spacer between the meal and the headboard it would work. We find it really sturdy.
