The picture shows something under the mattress like a box spring? That not something that actually built into or included with the crib is it?

It looks like they've recently changed the photograph--and it is confusing. If the design is still the same as the version I bought in 2012, then there is a flat and very sturdy wire grid that bolts into the wood part of the crib frame at each corner. The mattress just sits on that wire grid. The openness of the wire grid allows air to circulate underneath the mattress. There is nothing like that thick box spring in the version I bought.

The box spring mattress that comes with the bed is the mattress. It's firm but very comfortable.

The crib does come with a mattress however I never saw anything that said it did so I ordered a mattress as well and had to return it afterwards.

We used a mattress and sheet of plywood underneath.....otherwise yes, you have to use box springs and mattress.

Hello, thanks for posting. The Product Title states that this listing is for the Back Aid 10-Inch Mattress. Based on this, the box spring is not included. Thanks for your interest!

A boxspring isn't necessary, the mattress sits on a platform. The picture shows bed without a boxspring

It does come with a mattress, I think it is a little misleading and doesn't tell you the quality of the one included, I purchased a deeper mattress to use with the crib.

The bed bottom is cardboard. It doesn't come with a "mattress" but i believe it had a pillow and little blanket.

No there is not mattress included. However the bed sits high off the ground enough for a trundle or drawers and storage. Also just fyi Any mattress will slide back and forth or off the bed. There's no lip to prevEnt mattress from sliding off.

There is a slatted base. The only reason you would need a box spring is if your mattress is really thin, just to keep it from being so low to the ground aesthetically, but not for functionality.

There seems to be a female end within the actual wood of the crib sides that the screw is tightened into to hold the mattress up. I used the crib at the highest adjustment and to now the toddler bed. It's been moved twice and has held up very well with no damage or stripping, spluttering, or cause of uneasy.

Yea it does as there is a space between the platform that holds the mattress & the crib walls. But I am not putting one myself and still the crib looks perfect!

Not sure what you mean, just a standard base with a box spring? yes. It's an awesome mattress, just make sure you DOUBLE CHECK the size shipped prior to unwrapping

Hi, only the part that is on the floor under the bed is that size. It's about 2" thick that comes up the bottom of the box spring and mattress. I love mine, it's the second one I've had. The motor went out of the first one after 2 years use. It was cheaper to order a new one than to get it fixed. Loooooovvvvvveeeeeee it!!!!!!!!!

It's a mattress. I bought one of these for my six year old daughter. It is the size of an average twin mattress, but it is heavy and soft. Definitely worth the price. We do not use a box spring as it is unnecessary.

No its not. It fits between the box spring and mattress. Its great for getting up .

Just a mattress. I put a bunk bed board under because the mattress is a memory foam and I thought it added a little stability with that type of mattress. But it was not necessary.
