I would not do that. If you already have a bed frame with slates, you can go to a local Lowes or Home Depot and buy a piece of plywood to put on the slates and then put your mattress on top of that.

I am going to go to my HOme Depot and get a piece of plywood to cover my wood slats. I don't think you can put it right on the slats. Not sturdy enough. But I have read that the plywood will work.

The bed frame don't have the support to hold a box spring so the box spring will move a around on you when you lay it on the frame. So my opinion would be just to uses it with just a mattress. But I love the bed frame.

Elizabeth, I have a wooden bed..we took the wood slats out and replaced them with 4 sets of these metal slats. We have a lot more support and our old mattress, feels brand new again. Instead of buying another expensive mattress..we just replaced the slats and added extra. We cannot believe the comfort in our mattress..and now we are getting a better night sleep. Yes..we have a boxspring, with a piece of plywood over the boxspring..this helps to save the life of our set..and it is perfect..we won't be mattress shopping for several more years.!!

You might be able to....I bought a box spring for my bed with a pillow top mattress and I didnt need the boxspring because it sat to high so I use the platform as the base...

This is for the mattress only, Box spring not needed, I put mine on a plywood platform. Bob

The information that came with the mattress indicated a box spring, or a serta foam mattress base should be used, it shouldn't be on a solid surface. We used our old box spring.

I already had a box springs and mattress, so used that. There are four 2x6 slates that run the width of the bed, but they are VERY rough wood. I think plywood and a mattress would work fine. I really like the looks of the bed, but wish I had the extra side rail for added stability (didn't know it was an option until I got the bed and instructions).

No, there are solid pieces of flat wood instead of slats so you can use any mattress

you can but recommended that you add a sheet of plywood between box spring and mattress to avoid/prevent sagging.

You could... but this mattress doesn't need a box spring anyways. I bought a fold up bed frame that you put the mattress on. It only cost like $59.00 and takes a couple of minutes to set up, its light weight and sits up about a foot high so you can store things under the bed. It would look a lot nicer than sleeping directly on the floor. Stay cleaner too.

I don't see why not. My mattress lies directly on a wooden base which would be the same as a wooden floor and if feels perfectly comfortable.

Love this bed! We used a boxspring with our memory foam mattress and the support was very good, the slats are too far apart for just the memory foam mattress, you could use plywood as a base.

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.

Yes. I have the same mattress. Buy a wood board to put underneath from home depot... Its a reallly thin piece of wood or use something similar. And get the dual bc the single one has way too many false alarms. Love it and worth the investment

I have a boxspring with it. because there are slats and not a platform, I do not think a mattress alone would work very well. Great bed - looks beautiful and appears way more expensive then it is. I highly recommend it.

no, i have a futon mattress on top of the slats. you cant use a box spring ,it would be taller than the headboard. plus with all that weight the slats will break

I currently have mine on a storage foundation from Ikea that uses slats. As long as the slats aren't far apart on the platform bed, this mattress should be fine.
