Can you just put the mattress on the old box springs? If not, why not?

I did. I had no problem, and it gives it some height since I don't have a frame.

I'm sure you can but since the Lucid doesn't have a frame, you may not get the same support as if on a flat hard surface. I have it right on the bed frame/bunkie board. It is an awesome mattress. Good value.

No....there isn't enough space. If you did it anyway I feel it would spoil the look your trying to achieve. I thought I would miss my box spring but not the case !!!

I don't use box springs- I have an IKEA bed utilizes slats, and this mattress sleeps fine on it. You can use box springs or not.

Yes you can. The double size mattress I bought replaced my daughters old and sagging top mattress. We put it right on top of the box spring and she loves it!

yes Bonnie you can use your box spring with this mattress, but it will make your bed higher than a regular one ! I like mine that way , enjoy !

No. It's made to split the mattress from the box spring. That area needs to be expised. Sorry But you would be digging I think.

The original box springs do NOT work well, you need a flat surface so there is not sagging - we removed the box springs, put in 2x4s and plywood and that works wonderfully well on the original frame

You Could, It would be so much easier to fit them to a frame the box spring sits on.(not included) but, not expensive!

I just got two of these beds, you could use a box springs. We choose not to however it works either way.

Not sure we had a box spring we just put it on top of that. No problems. It is a good mattress.

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. I bought one of the metal frames and set it on that. Seems to me that box springs are an outdated concept.

We kept the box springs we had, put a piece of plywood on top of those, and then added the new mattress. Covered the plywood with a bedskirt to protect the mattress. Added sturdiness. Love our mattress by the way!

Yes, if you don't plan on using a box spring. Also if you use a spring mattress it may damage the springs over time due to repeated lifting.

you can but i wouldnt suggest it, you will hear the wood hitting the wood and its going to be to high. not good. Box springs in the cost of mattress sets are very inexpensive, maybe see if they would let you take the boxspring back possible or try it and see what you think. Those are my thoughts. Hope all this helps. If noe of this works i have hundreds of others beds for sale, hows that on our full site. 6102773747 Good luck. Linda

Well I threw it on top of my old box springs that we put some plywood down on. I don't see why you couldn't do that on the futon.

I do use a box spring but one is probably not required as long as you have something flat to sit the mattress on.
