It depends on your bed frame. Some frames are basically just rails down the side and possibly a couple of slats running across; these need a rigid support like a box spring. However, if the frame is capable of supporting a mattress by itself, you don't really need the box spring.

Not necessarily. The need for a box spring depends on the type of mattress and bed frame you have. Some mattresses are designed to be used without a box spring, while others require the extra support and height a box spring provides.

∙ 14y agoA box spring isn't mandatory.. it all depends on the look you're going for. If you want a more modern look.. don't use a boxspring. If you want the more traditional look..use a boxspring.. the bed will appear more 'full' as it looks a little bit lost without one.
