In the picture, it doesn't seem to require a box spring -- is this right? No box spring required?

yes, it is a platform style bed frame, so you can just put the mattress right on the frame. My daughter liked the bed higher though, so we put both the box and mattress on the frame.

There is no box spring required. We bought a memory foam mattress and no box spring, it works great for our daughter.

You are correct. My daughter has this bed and it does not require a box spring. We love it!! Very easy to assemble.

It has slats on the bed frame and you only need a mattress and a mattress board. It does not require a box spring and would probably look disproportionate.

There is no need for a box spring. This is a platform bed. We purchased the king size bed and have placed a pillow top mattress on the platform. The platform is very supportive. We are very happy with this product. Pictures provided by amazon describe product well.

As stated previously before, this is a platform bed. No box spring is needed.

Yes, you need a box spring with this! There are 4 slats that go across and that is not enough for the mattress.

No box spring needed, that is the beauty of it. The slats on the frame support you and the mattress. Bought this for my college student who loves it!

No, you do not need a box spring. I have my mattress on a plain plywood board, and it works great.

You don't need box spring. But it's poor quality. Mine wood support snapped and I'm not big

Yes, it's fine without a box spring - we put plywood on the slats of our bed frame and the mattress on top of that.

The beauty of this bed is that is does not need a box spring. It is a platform bed. I did not use a box spring but i would think that you could if you wanted to .

You don't need a box spring if you have a platform bed. If it's for a regular frame bed you need box spring.

You do not need a box spring. i simply went to Lowes and had them cut a few pieces of wood and used that instead. It worked well as a platform bed which was not too high for my 5 year old. Hope that helps.

No box spring needed. But slats definitely needed. Make sure the gaps between slats are no more than 4", I would suggest.

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

You do not HAvE to use a box spring. We like our bed to be high off the ground so we chose too. It works either way and looks great!

Yes. This frame will support a box spring if you want to use one. But, there is enough frame support that a box spring is not required.

The picture you see is without a box spring. The frame has curved wooden slats on the bottom that act as a box spring.
