I used these three metal slats to replace broken wooden slats on a bed that sounds similar to yours. I left in all the other wooden slats that were not broken. I can't imagine only having the 3 metal slats as support. I feel that the bed would sag and create back pain.

Not quite sure what you have but this is basically three metal slats to support the bed in the middle they must be attached to wooden side slats hope that answers your question

I did not simply because with the box spring on top of the platform frame slats the bed was about 4 1/2 feet off the ground. so we just put it directly onto the slats...if you purchase just be careful during construction as some of the wood is kind of thin and soft so screws can shred or tear if you have to screw in/unscrew and screw again

Platform bed should be fine without a box spring for support as long as it is constructed with thick enough wood. The mattress itself provides plenty enough comfort as is, although I did put a quilted cover on mine for a little bonus.

Yes it can be used on a platform with slats. It's thick and doesn't sink nor sag. I have my Brentwood on a metal platform with no box spring

You could probably get away with just the slats if you had to. There are five of them. It's made for a bed with a box spring though.

It does not have slats you will need a box spring. You cannot use the frame without a box spring

you don't need any slats. It is designed for a memory foam mattress to lay right over the top. It eliminates the box spring, I should have put this thing in years ago!

I used the box spring already on my bed. I would not recommend using no box spring at all.

Yes, as it comes with 4 planks of wood. Though we too did not like the box spring as it made the bed too high. So I bought more wood planks to use for just the matress and got rid of the box sping. Hope this helps

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

Yes, we use this on an IKEA day bed with slats and two mattresses, no box spring.

Our bed does not require a box spring. Our mattress fits directly on the slats of the bed. It works great!

You could use a box spring, but it isn't necessary. This bed is a platform bed. There aren't "slats," but a solid piece of plywood.

This probably depends on the bed frame. We have a flat piece of plywood under ours. Works perfectly! No box spring required. :)

This bed does NOT need a box spring. The slats are shaped in such a way that eliminates the need for one.

We do not use a box spring. Ikea bed slats should suffice. Check the softness of this bed before purchasing which is on higher side

I would assume that you can though it is a platform bed so a box spring is unneeded. That said I can't imagine how using a box spring would do any damage though it may not look very good as your box spring would be exposed unless you have a giant fitted sheet or some type of skirt
