Does this bed frame require a boxspring?

We used a boxspring. It had rails so if you only wanted to use a mattress I assume you could use a piece of plywood below it.

Yes - it's a basic frame so requires an entire bed - mattress and box spring.

No, since this is just the box spring. This boxpring itself actually needs a frame (sold separately) to sit in if you don't want it just sitting on the ground.A standard metal bed frame will have places to mount the headboard.

Our bed does not require a box spring. Our mattress fits directly on the slats of the bed. It works great!

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.

Yes. There are mattress frames that remove the need for a box frame that work great.

You are correct. My daughter has this bed and it does not require a box spring. We love it!! Very easy to assemble.

No it doesn't come with a boxspring. It's just a mattress. I've put mine on a slatted bedframe from Ikea(similar to a platform bed) and it seems to work just fine that way.

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

It is designed with slats so no boxspring is required, but putting the boxspring on top of the slats should work and will give more height

You first need a bed frame but yes you need a box spring, you only get the head and foot board of this bed and it comes in pieces that you have to assemble.

If you have a platform bed with adequate slats, you do not need anything else. If you have a normal bed frame, you definitely need a box spring.

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

Yes. My daughter's bed is a platform bed with no boxspring tucked right into the corner of her room. There are straps that go from the rail and they run between the mattress and platform. The straps end with a round metal disc that then rests perpendicular against the other side of the mattress to hold it in place. Works great. We've never had a problem.

No. The box spring fit the mattress fine. Only order a single frame, 2 is too many.

You need only Platform frame. No need for boxspring unless you want to make it too high.
