Can I put a memory foam mattress on a regular box?”
the memory foam mattress’ are the same size as normal mattress’ and they can be put on a box spring or a platform. the only thing you might want to concider is if this will affect the warrenty. I was told my old regular mattress wouldn’t be covered if put on a platform by the salesman (he wanted to sell a box spring also) but I checked with the manufacturer and they said as long as the platform doesn’t cause the problem it would be and low and behold 3 years later they covered it when it failed. I now use a memory foam topper 4″ and love it.
I believe you can, but it might mitigate some of the advantages of the foam. The suggestion here is that you should place it on an even surface, even the floor will do. == Obviously it will be important to allow the foam to do what it is best for: Allowing for a better contouring of your body shape and therefore less pressure placed on the areas of your body that press harder against the bed. However, don’t just go by your weight, because if you are tall, then your weight is dispersed over the bed more. A good memory foam mattress will not need a box spring underneath it to make the mattress feel good. You can order a platform base to increase the height of the bed, but remember that this mattress should feel good if it was placed on an even, concrete surface. A good way to test the surface of a box spring or box foundation is to sit or even stand on various areas and see if it compresses underneath you. If you have an existing foundation that is weak, you can easily place two cut 3/4
