Matress does not include a base, can it be set up on top of a nine inch memory form mattress that I currently have?

We do not recommend you place this mattress on top of an existing mattress. However we do recommend using either a platform base, box springs, metal bed base or an adjustable bed base to support the mattress. Please let us know if you have any further questions.

I used my old base. It worked fine but I don't know if the memory foam would work. You might try it and if it doesn't box springs aren't too expensive.

No, and you have to use an coil-spring type mattress with it. I had a memory form I put it on top of the coil-spring mattress. It didn't really work well though. I went back to sleeping on the floor. I have a herniated 5th lumbar disc, and a coil-spring mattress isn't firm enough, and I'm a little person, under 110 lbs.

You will need some sort of foundation. Several things could work. You could put on top of older mattress or a piece of plywood.

Sorry but you can't add firmness to a memory foam bed by adding this on top. You could add a piece of plywood underneath to see if that might help.

No it is a flat mattress. One would have to obtain a bedframe that would raise or lower.

Hi, didn't know Amazon had a feature to contact buyers (bought this like 3-5 years ago at this point). The base isn't that large honestly. You are able to fit a twin size mattress. For me, I have some cheap tempurpedic foam from Target.

Maybe. But it depends on how high you want it. I got rid of my waterbed mattress and placed the new mattress in its spot.

This not absolute. Our mattress is approx 9" and it appears to have enough material for at least 2+" additional. You could email the manufactor....

Yes, as the base is very hard but its very hard to find the mattress for this coz of it size. The standard matress size do not fit in it.

No. I have the same model and i only have my mattress on it. The metal slats give great support. But if you want a little height, use a box spring or I used bed risers to have storage under the bed.

Hi, you can go easily up to a mattress that is 9" thick so yours is going to fit very well. Thank you so much!

Depending on how thin the full mattress is, yes, I believe it can be done...there is no center support to block storage; however, the space underneath (from floor to bottom of metal frame/bed) with wheels attached is approx 6 & 3/4 inches, so if your full mattress is thin enough (or at least able to 'smoosh' down a bit...then yes!!! Good luck! PS-- they also sell inexpensive bed frame lifts, they're like varying heights to add lift to the frame...so you may even want to purchase those as well!2 examples of the lifters that I mentioned are- Home-it Adjustable Bed Risers, Set, 8-inch Bed Riser and Bed Lifts those are like $20, and Home-it 5 to 6-inch Black Bed Riser ,4-packthose are around $11. Hope this helps!!

I am not sure if this mattress could be used on an adjustable base or not. I have it on a regular foundation, but I would call the company and ask. I called them many times before I bought the matress and they were very helpful. 888-975-8243

I put mine on top of our old box spring, worked fine. Bed sets a little lower with this mattress as it is not as thick as our old foam mattress was.

You can, pretty much any foam mattress will work. I found that a thinner mattress is better. If you put the feet and the head up the area where your bum is gets a little squeezed with a very thick mattress. Mine is 8" but 10" should be good.

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...

Yes but you do need something like a platform bed to put it on. It won't sit in like the regular metal frame by itself that you use with a matress and a box spring.
