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.

I have it on a platform bed and it is great, so you will not need a box spring, as long as it have support (platform, slats or even a sheet of plywood if you are using a traditional bed frame).

No box spring needed. I bought one and the bed fit perfectly. the box spring might make the mattress to high

You don't need a box spring if you have a platform bed. If it's for a regular frame bed you need box spring.

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.

No box spring needed. I had to throw mine away. But the extra storage was worth it.

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

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

I got it for bunk beds. But yes I think it requires a box spring of some sort.

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.

Yes it needs some kind of solid platform or box springs. Either one will work just fine. We used a box spring and that has worked great.

Nope. The wooden slats are only a few inches apart so a box spring isn't necessary

Yes, you need a box spring. It only comes as headboard, footboard, and the frame. It's very nice. We're extremely happy with it.

It doesn't need a box spring, I bought a platform bed frame for mine and it's fine. If you put it on a box spring you're going to need a ladder to get into bed, depending on frame height. Technically it doesn't need anything under it if it's inside a bed frame.

No you don't need a box spring unless you just like your mattress to sit really high. I have a memory foam mattress and I thought I would sink right through because I don't have a box spring but the frame alone was very supportive.

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! :)
