has anyone used a memory foam mattress on this? if so how does it hold up, any sagging between the slats?

Yes, we got a piece of plywood and had it cut to size. Then we used an old sheet to cover the plywood so it would not snag our mattress. Worked like a charm and is just the support it needs.

We are currently using 12 inch memory foam mattresses (we have 3, one queen and two full). Seems fine, but I am contemplating on adding sanded plywood or some sort of flat surface for additional support. It's also a little lower than a standard bed, the other option instead of plywood would be using a box spring. I agree with the other reviewers, the center legs are very tiny. The slats are also not "finished" (sanded), so it does damage the part of the tucked sheet, thus my thought on using finished plywood or better yet, a box spring.

I use a memory foam mattress with mine and, after almost a year, no sagging.

I'm using a memory foam mattress with this bed - haven't had any issues to date.

We used a regular mattress but I think a memory foam mattress would work just fine. The slats are close enough together, I believe they would provide plenty of support.

Has been great for us. Had this for almost a year and have no complaints. We have a memory foam mattress on top and have had no problems with noise. Very solid and sturdy. I'm a bigger guy and had problems with wood box springs breaking after awhile. This has held up nicely.

I have one pkg/2 slats on my queen size bed and it works perfectly. It feels very sturdy. Much better than the 3 wooden ones that came with the bed. I don't think we'll be breaking this one lol

I do not have personal experience with a memory foam mattress but this one is comfortable. Our only issue is that we have it on the wood platform in the camper with no other mattress, we do sink in a little by the morning.

I have mine on an inexpensive platform bed I purchased from Amazon. It uses slats underneath to support the mattress. I love it; very cheap, very comfortable solution to needing an additional bed.

I have three of these mattresses. Each are on slats. You can use box springs just fine. As to advice on which one, sorry, but I'm not a fan of box springs so I can't help there.

This bed comes with several lower slats that will support any mattress you should choose. We bought this for our 11 year old, and is supposed to hold up to 1000#! There has been 5-10 year olds upon this bed( yes, st once!) and it has held well!

Can't answer about the slats right now but I use it over a memory foam mattress support

The slats are pretty close and I am using a memory foam on the Queen size with no problem

I have this frame...I use a boxspring with it, but I guess you could use only a mattress. I don't know, it might sag though. I really love this frame!

I have had it for several months. I love it. I got the 8 inch mattresses for my kids over a year ago and they love it. No issues. Yes I thought it was too good to be true too, but so far they have been wonderful. It is not a soft mattress. I was a little surprised how firm it was. I prefer it that way. It takes a minute or two to conform. It does get a bit softer over time, but no lumps or dents.

I have slats and have had no problems with my queen sized mattress. I, personally, would not recommend solid plywood as the lack of breathability could encourage bacterial/mold growth in the mattress.

If you have slats, and they are too far spread apart, any memory foam mattress will mushroom through the slats. If you are putting it on a flat surface then you should be fine.

Yes, this will work well with a foam mattress, I bought this in combination with a Sleep Innovations 12 inch memory foam mattress and there is no support issue, the supports are not slats, but more of a grid pattern that leaves no room for sagging.

Not at all. Its a great mattress that provides alot of support at a really nice price. Mine has lasted a year now with no noticable sag.

It only has slats. A memory foam would not be wise to use there. Use a thicker matress

I think so. I have one for each of my kids, the oldest of which is now two. He has been using it since birth and I plan to continue using it in his toddler bed until he transitions out. After two years the mattress has held up beautifully, absolutely no sagging at all.
