Do you need a box spring to put underneath? Or using it by itself is fine?

You do not need a box spring. It is extremely comfortable based on memory foam. You do need a bed frame for support. I do not have a box spring but do use a wire frame which I also ordered from Amazon. Enjoy!.

By itself is fine. I have an ikea malm bed frame with the wooden slats underneath and use it alone

It does not require the box spring. But if you do the bed will be very high

No box spring required. There are two legs that stick out like a fork. It just slides and tucks under the mattress.

You should definitely have a base for it we put it on a bed frame with storage underneath so we didn't need the box spring but if you don't have a sturdy bed frame then I would recommend a box spring.I really hope this helps!

Yes a box spring is needed. The foundation are slats which would be placed too far apart for just a mattress. Also the bed would be super low with no box spring

You don't have to use a box spring, but the wood holding up the mattress is not sufficient enough in terms of strength to hold up the average mattress. You should place additional pieces of wood on the frame or get a flat piece of wood cut to the length and with of the are in which the bed will be placed. Put it over the wood to brace the mattress.

We have a box spring under outa and it works great! I think it possibly voids the warranty if you do though.

You don't have to use a box spring. You can use a platform of some sort to support it, or you can buy a foundation for it as I did for another mattress. There's a few ways to set it up so that it's right for you.

No box spring needed, that is the beauty of it. The slats on the frame support you and the mattress. Bought this for my college student who loves it!

There is really no reason to use a box spring at all. There are slats that go across the bed frame and that is all you need. If you did use a box spring, you would be rather high and your mattress might slide off trying to get in and out of bed.

Yes, it needs a box spring. There aren't enough slats on the bottom to support just a mattress.

You don't need a box spring. But make sure you get all the parts they're supposed to send you!

You do not need a box spring. The floor of the bed is very stable with about 10 bars across.

Yes you do need a box spring. Love the head board foot board. Very stationary

I used a frame and put supports down and then covered that with a sheet of plywood. The mattress cannot sit independently on a frame, it is too soft. My daughter has a similar mattress and we have a box spring under it. Both ways seem to work fine so I would simply choose whichever costs less.

The instructions say that a box spring is not necessary. I had both, and it does put the mattress higher than the foot board & you can only see about a foot of the head board, which I don't mind. But the metal slats are pretty close together & can easily hold just the mattress.

It depends on what kind of bed fame you are use so you might need a box spring.
