Yes, you'll need either a box spring or another foundation of some sort. A mattress would fall through without it.

Yes, you need a box spring this is not a platform bed just a frame. This also sits very close to the floor but with the box spring our bed is a perfect height.

Yeah I would because you don't have anything else to keep the bed from falling through the frame space.

No this bed does not need a box spring and it has about a foot of clearance with mid support legs.

It is a really tall bed, so no, I wouldn't use a box spring, or you'll have to literally climb into bed.. It's not necessary, either, as there are wood support slats to hold up the mattress.

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.

The frame is pre-drilled for a headboard and footboard. You will not need a box spring, though one may be used if you like.

You do not HAvE to use a box spring. We like our bed to be high off the ground so we chose too. It works either way and looks great!

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

No box spring needed. Just a solid foundation. Some people use a sheet of Masonite on their bed frame.

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! :)

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).

You do not need a box spring. The wood slats are fine. I have a memory foam mattress on the slats.

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.

You could use a box spring, but it isn't necessary. This bed is a platform bed. There aren't "slats," but a solid piece of plywood.

You don't need a box spring. The foam mattress is awesome & the frame has the wooden slats! Great bed!

Yes you need a box spring, I'm not sure about the weight capacity, that would also depend on your mattresses

No box spring needed. Use a reg twin mattress on both girls beds. Had them over a year now they are great! Very comphy

You do not use a box spring with this bed. It would make the mattress too high. There are round metal rods that support the mattress. You need a mattress and that is it. I did place a thin board atop the metal rods to keep the shape of the mattress, but the board is not necessary.
