Yes. It's just like the picture. If you didn't have a box spring the matress would sag into openings I would think.

You will need to support your mattress, with either box springs, or a box. A box looks like a box spring, but it is no more than a spacer / mattress support ...

Yes, you will still need a boxspring, I use this myself, just letting you know it isn't easy to move the bed around, it doesn't have wheels

For temp use I used plywood, this will work but not recommended as perm base for mattress

Yes, you will definitely want one, since this frame doesn't have those built-in metal springs in between the supports.

Yes you will need a box spring it only comes with the slats to place the box spring and mattress on.

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.

No box spring needed. Just a solid foundation. Some people use a sheet of Masonite on their bed frame.

Depends what kind of frame you have. If the frame has cross beams that support the mattress throughout then you don't need a box spring. If your frame supports the mattress only on the edges then you need a box spring.

I have a slatted bed frame, similar to an Ikea bed frame and no, you do not need a box spring. I agree with another reviewer that this mattress is very firm and I also have put a topper over it. I'm not a heavy person but when I sleep on my side, I can feel the slats on the bottom of the bed on my hips. I don't have this problem any more with the topper but it was an extra expense I wasn't expecting.

No I hooked my onto the open metal bed frame so I did not need a box spring for my queen frame.the whole frame came boxed and you unfolded it. Then I got brackets that go with the frame. If you do have a regular frame just hook the head board to it. I bought the folding frame so I could store boxes under the frame. All came from Amazon.

No, you will need to buy a twin size mattress for it. No box spring needed.

Yes, you need a box spring. It only comes as headboard, footboard, and the frame. It's very nice. We're extremely happy with it.

The frame is pre-drilled for a headboard and footboard. You will not need a box spring, though one may be used if you like.

The bed comes with the frame as shown in the picture. I have box springs and a mattress on mine. If you have a very thick mattress, you may not need the box spring. I love this bed and use it in my guest house. It is sturdy and my guest say they love it.

You could use a box spring, but it isn't necessary. This bed is a platform bed. There aren't "slats," but a solid piece of plywood.

You don't need a box spring. I bought a box spring before I got the bed. Now my mattress sits at what feels like 4 feet high. The bed comes with slats to make up for the box spring.

Yes you need a box spring, I'm not sure about the weight capacity, that would also depend on your mattresses

You don't need a box spring. The foam mattress is awesome & the frame has the wooden slats! Great bed!

A box spring is optional (not necessary). Bed comes with a slat support system. Thanks, ModHaus
