do I need a box spring?

We just use a bed frame but the frame has to have multiple slats across the center to hold it so it can't just be a standard bed frame. So ultimately to answer your question no box spring necessary if you have a bed frame with cross member support.

I don't think it necessarily needs a box spring, but your mattress would be more comfortable with one. Box springs help displace the pressure of the springs in the mattress. The platform will keep the springs from bouncing and you end up with spring in your back. This is from personal experience. Can always get a box spring later if the platform isn't to your liking.

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 you do not need a box spring. It came with slats underneath. We added a few wooden blocks just to make it extra secure and a pretty thick mattress on the full bed.

If you have a platform bed with adequate slats, you do not need anything else. If you have a normal bed frame, you definitely need a box spring.

It does not require the box spring. But if you do the bed will be very high

You will need box springs. This is so much more beautiful than the pictures show. Well worth the money.

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.

No box spring needed. I bought one and the bed fit perfectly. the box spring might make the mattress to high

No, it doesn't need a box spring. It comes with its own support system for the mattress.

Yes, it needs a box spring. There aren't enough slats on the bottom to support just a mattress.

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.

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.

A box spring isn't needed. I went w/o one for a bit but it was kinda low.. So I added one later.

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.

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.

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