Do you need to use a box spring with this mattress?

I would use something with very good support or it can produce an uneven bed over time.

The mattress does not require a box spring, but I have a bed frame which is designed to work without a box spring. If the bed frame is designed to use a box spring, then you will need a box spring. This is because a box spring bed frame will not 1) have the 12 - 15 lateral support bars the mattress requires, and 2) mount the bottom of the foam mattress about 18 inches from the floor.

Yes you will need one, we just used our old box spring. The mattress is firm but is still holding up for the price not bad.

You don't have to use a box spring. You can use a platform of some sort to support it, or you can buy a foundation for it as I did for another mattress. There's a few ways to set it up so that it's right for you.

No box spring required, and it would be too tall with one. The mattress rests mostly on the solid cabinets and partially on slats that span the void between the drawers and the headboard.

Yes, you'll need both a mattress and a box spring. The higher profile box springs are ideal.

No need for a box spring, the slats are very sturdy. Besides, if you put a box spring on, I would think the mattress would tend to slide off when it is slept on.

Yes. We've been using it without a box spring for 6 months without issue. Love the mattress.....

Hey I own this bed, and you do not need a box spring, it is made for use with just a memory foam mattress

Box spring is not required. You can use a box spring if you feel that the mattress is too low from the ground.

I don't have a box spring. I just have the mattress on a platform bed. I don't have any problems, it's a heavy mattress and so comfortable!

You don't have to use a box spring, but the wood holding up the mattress is not sufficient enough in terms of strength to hold up the average mattress. You should place additional pieces of wood on the frame or get a flat piece of wood cut to the length and with of the are in which the bed will be placed. Put it over the wood to brace the mattress.

I had a platform base so I did not need a box spring. The mattress is very comfortable!

No. The bed needs a box spring and matress set. I really like the bed. Iti's quiet and sturdy, besides being lovely to look at.

Yes you can use a regular mattress and absolutely no box spring necessary. I use a 12 inch foam mattress from Costco and its the best sleep I've had. Save yourself a lot of money.

I honestly don't think a box spring is necessary, even though the slats are suprisingly sturdy and fit well and secure in the base of the bed. I actually bought this frame because I wanted a bed withouth a box spring. Hope that helps!

It was a mattress only on top of a hospital bedframe which had springs in the frame. I don't believe box springs would be necessary. It is a nice heavy foam....comfortable and does not squish down easily.

This bed does not come with a mattress. You only need to purchase a mattress, no box springs are needed.
