can this bed accommodate both a box spring and a top mattress?

Yeah, it could, but the box spring would sit very high on the frame. I think the "floor of the frame is only about 3-4 inches below the side rail.

It is designed with slats so no boxspring is required, but putting the boxspring on top of the slats should work and will give more height

Hi Cathy, yes this bed can accommodate a box spring and mattress. The bed comes in standard sizes. We bought a queen and had our original mattress on it (no box spring). Because it's a platform bed it doesn't require box springs. When we found the mattress we wanted got memory foam. We love this bed, so well made and attractive too :-D

No, due to the height of the rails. The rails are not tall enough for both a mattress and box spring, the mattress would slide right off due to not being contained by the rails. But the bed frame is made to not need a box spring at all, which is how I use it with no problems.

You would not be able to use the box spring. The platform on the bed means that it is already high enough and strong enough to support the mattress. Adding a box spring would make the mattress way too high.

Yes you may, but you don't have to place a box spring as this product can replace old box spring and bed frame.

Yes, box spring fits in base of frame. The top of box spring is only about an inch to 2 inches above the frame base.

I own this bed and I think you probably do. The frame is a Hollywood frame which would not be very comfortable without a box spring.

You do not use a box spring with this bed. It would make the mattress too high. There are round metal rods that support the mattress. You need a mattress and that is it. I did place a thin board atop the metal rods to keep the shape of the mattress, but the board is not necessary.

Yes, of course. It is a bed frame that will support both a boxspring and a mattress; and has been tested up to 1,200 pounds for extra strength.

Yes. My daughter uses the full-size mattress with the full-sized platform bed frame and has no box spring mattress on the platform. It would actually be way too high with an additional box spring mattress.

I suppose you could purchase a box spring and frame and then, place this on top if you want it to function more like a traditional bed. I don't think that is how it is meant to be used but I can't imagine why it wouldn't work.

I have a bit of a pillow top on my mattress and one would not work for both my mattress and a box spring. If you got two, then you could easily rotate your matress.

I have my box spring and mattress on top. It's very sturdy but you'll be high up

You do not need a box spring for this bed. I had a box spring and used it with the mattress on this bed, the result is that the combined height of the mattress and box spring reaches to practically the top of the foot frame.

Karen please disregard my 1st answer yes a box spring will fit it gives my daughter bed a great height

I think so. We just bought a normal pillow top full size mattress to go with it. You won't need a box spring.

The bed would be really high with a box spring depending on your mattress height

Not sure we had a box spring we just put it on top of that. No problems. It is a good mattress.

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 .
