Not all mattresses need a box spring, but following manufacturer guidelines for proper support is crucial to prevent damage. We advise investing in a new box spring and bed frame to ensure proper support and maintain the product warranty. Review your bed frame and understand the amount of slats that would be supporting a mattress. If your frame is well supported with slats with limited space gaps, you may not need a box spring. Review our beds and frames to buy a frame that would not require a box spring.
