Does the mattress stay put or slides off if the bed is not against a wall?

I have a memory foam mattress on top of this frame without a box spring in between so the mattress does not move much at all. But even with a regular spring mattress I don't think it would slide off because the edges are a raised to prevent the mattress from moving around. Hope this helps!

We have a memory foam mattress on this platform and it does not slide at all.

I can confirm that it doesn't slide of the mattress for me and my mattress is wrapped in a plastic protector. I recommend this product.

We initially set it up with the bed pulled out. When we put it up into futon mode (or the couch kind of position) it was only a few inches from the wall and we leave it there so that we can use the bed when needed without moving the entire unit.

I leave it on top of a thin, mattress protector, so we never have that issue at all. Without that protector, it moves until the regular sheet is placed over it. Then it's fine, too.

The weight of the mattress on top of the holster flap keeps it in place. (Note: it does slide out after about a week of not touching the holster). I have had no problems drawing from the holster, Only in practice have I drawn the pistol. It works and is nicely hidden when the bed is made. I would recommend the holster.

I bought this bed for my mother so I do not actually use it. I did notice that the bed never touched the wall when the head is at fully raised position. 4" away from the wall sounds about right.

When the box spring and mattress are placed on the frame it leaves an approximately 2" lip on the sides of the mattress . I have not noticed any movement. It is a very solid frame.

Mine doesn't. My best advice is don't place the headboard directly against a wall, and make sure the screws are tight AND you should be just fine.

I think there is something about the material that is slip proof - have used mine for a nearly three months and it has remained in position. I covered the entire bed with a mattress topper so that may have helped and I believe you can buy a 'belt / frame' type accessory that holds both mattresses if they are lighter and prone to slipping on the bed frame.

Hi. While I can't be certain, I would say No, it won't slip. I figure as long as you tuck the additional material under the mattress (between the mattress and boxspring), I can't imagine how 10+ inches of securely tucked fabric could escape in order to slip/move around.

I have a Tempurpedic mattress with a 3" topper for a softer feel (a lower density memory foam than the TP) and I had the same problem with the topper moving off the mattress,even with a well fitted mattress pad. Very annoying,until I bought a "no-slip/non-skid" mesh originally used under rugs on hardwood floors. This solved the problem beautifully and the topper has not moved an inch under the mattress pad since. I bought a roll of the stuff from an online futon retailer which promote it used to avoid futons sliding off the frame. Cost total was about $14 incl.shipping.

No, it does not. That is why we bought a foam mattress for it, they are dense and don't shift. My husband bought foam pipe covering that he put around edges and strapped down with tie straps so the frame would not damage the walls. We also bought round 2" furniture movers to set all the legs in (we have tile floors) so easy to move for cleaning. The bed does not slide around due to the dense foam mattress. Love this bed frame! Works great!

The headboard has legs that attach to the frame of the bed (the material of the headboard, therefore, does not go all the way down). I suppose the headboard could rest against the wall with the bed pushed up against it to hold it up, but I think it would be a little wobbly. Hope that helps.

The beds have a metal bar at the bottom by the feet which keeps them from sliding down. However, if you don't have a bed frame you cannot keep the mattress' together and that is a nightmare to deal with. We do not use a bed skirt because we have a bed frame that covers the sides of the beds.

No it does not slide. It has little balls under it. I guess that's what kept it from sliding. Buy it, u won't regret it.

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 !

unfortunately I'm unable to answer the question. I ended up throwing it in the trash and bought a different one from Costco. The mattress pad you are referring to slipped and would not stay in place. I ended up buying a mattress pad with elastic sides that hold in place.
