Yes my son has one in college setting on a plywood platform. He loves it. I plan to set my daughter up the same way.

This is the mattress only. A platform bed would be the best option for this mattress as it is foam. Box springs will not work with this mattress. I have two mattresses from this company, the other being latex and for both beds I have cut 2 x 4's to fit on top of the side rails for my beds for the mattresses to lay on. This works very well and is much less expensive than purchasing a new bed frame or the solid box to put the mattress on.

I have mine on an inexpensive platform bed I purchased from Amazon. It uses slats underneath to support the mattress. I love it; very cheap, very comfortable solution to needing an additional bed.

Optional. You can put it on a platform bed frame or buy one of the bed frame just for these mattresses. I have done both and the beds are equally comfortable.

No because the frame has the motor and everything that operates your bed attached to it. I'm assuming you're talking about a bed where the mattress just sits down on it. If that is the case, it won't work. I believe that the legs are attached and there are extenders to make the bed taller if you want it to be higher. This bed is extremely heavy and I don't think I would want to put it on a platform.

As a platform bed, my mattress only has cushioning on one side. The other has a wood frame which rests on the platform. Any mattress would probably be fine, as the box spring would support the mattress over the platform feature.

No you don't, I just converted my old bed frame(wooden) into a platform bed. It just needs to be flat and solid. I think they sell some already made on here I think they are called mattress foundations that fit in your bed frame. Hope this helps and would be happy to answer anything else if I can.

No it is not on a platform. No it does not have box springs. You are only getting the memory foam mattress.

Absolutely! I bought a memory foam mattress (can't remember the brand) and it is very comfortable without a box spring. I really like the platform.

No, I wouldn't use a foam mattress for this frame (unless you use 2) - something must be underneath the foam mattress.

Just the mattress alone. I recommend add a sheet of plywood on top of the planks and then add mattress for even flat surface for Mattress to rest on.

As long as there is a hard surface between the mattress and the platform, the rail can be used. Ours is supported by the mattress and box springs as well as the weight of the user.

No, it has wood slats, so you can just set a mattress on top like a normal platform bed.

The mattress performs great for me on a platform made of bowed oak boards, spaced every 8 inches. For a firmer bed, a simple flat platform would also work. The key is support across the entire bottom surface of the mattress. The foam is sturdy but needs continuous support from below to perform at it's best.

Yes you could put this on your floor. I did that with a similar mattress for years. I have it on a platform bed frame which it really just a lifted floor.

You can use your foundation, if it is good and solid. If it is really like the old box with springs in it, you may want to get a sheet of plywood to put on top of it and then put the mattress on it. If it is the box foundation that does not have springs you probably would not need the plywood. As long as your foundation is solid you do not need to get a separate foundation.

It's possible since the straps go all the way across to the other side. There is also a metal disc that would go between the box spring and mattress so that it can anchor flat against them to avoid sliding out. As long ad you can place this metal disc flat against the outside of the platform and mattress you should be fine. Only thing is you might want to put a small hand towel around he disc so it wouldn't scratch or ruin the wood platform. Hope that helps!!!
