Will this mattress fit right onto a metal frame? Or does it need a spring box?

You'll need a box spring, for sure. It is literally a piece of foam. A very COMFORTABLE piece of foam, and I love it, but it needs a box spring or a wooden platform.

If the frame is the right size and there's something solid for the mattress to lay on I don't see why not. Can't say from experience because I have a box spring though.

I am not using a spring box with this. I just put the thin mattress between the metal frame and this form to protect it..

I have two of these mattresses sitting straight on IKEA platforms, and one sitting on a box spring. I do not notice a difference in either of them by sitting on a platform or a box spring. I love this mattress as does the rest of my family one of the best bed investments I have ever made.

I purchased both a mattress and box spring. I would recommend both..as the frame is metal and a box spring would help reduce mattress sag over time.

No it needs box springs I bought the metal frame off of here for memory foam 108.00 for it and it can sit inside a frame that has headboardand floorboards this bed is so very firm felt like sleeping on the floor but some people like that not me had to buy another topper for it hope that helps

I put it directly on the Sleep Master platform frame. No box spring required.

No. I bought one of the metal frames and set it on that. Seems to me that box springs are an outdated concept.

No, it does not require a box spring. There really is no perfect mattress for a box spring, but the firmer the better in my opinion. Depends on your level of comfort.

Yes, it would work fine. You only need the box spring with this mattress if you have one of the old style metal frames that only goes around the outside of the box spring.

For best results, a flat platform frame or foundation is needed. We have used box springs on a standard metal frame with memory foam and were happier once we switched to a platform type frame with the mattress directly on top of it. We have this mattress directly on a wooden bunk bed frame and it is great!

As long as the mattress is not super thin it will be fine. It has slats for support so there is no need for box springs other than height.

No. You will get a mattress and box spring only. You will need the metal frame if you don't have one. Your head and footboard will work as long as they will attach to your frame that the mattress and spring sit on.

Yes - we placed our Sleep Master mattress directly on a metal box frame we purchased from Amazon. The frame provides adequate support. We were extremely pleased and saw no need for either a box spring or any other type of mattress or added support. For us, this mattress on the metal frame is quite comfortable.

No, it will be way to high. It comes with bent wood slats sit on the metal edges and flatten when you add the mattress. A box spring would add at least 6-10 inches and the mattress would be higher than the sides.

the mattress is heavy and it will not slide off of your box spring, as long as you dont have plastic on your box springs !

You should be fine. We actually placed ours on a standard box spring as well.Simply the best money ever spent on a mattress! Enjoy

No! I have a really thick memory foam mattress on mine and it fits perfectly. No box spring needed!

Thanks for your interest in the bed set. This uses metal rails so it would need a box spring to sit in the frame and then the mattress on top.Sincerely,Russell WestWest Furnishings

You will either need a platform frame or a box spring. The mattress may be firm, but it needs a solid base otherwise the weight of a body will push it right through an open frame. It's firm, but not rigid.
