Platform beds are growing in popularity with individuals who like the contemporary appeal
of a low profile sleep space, as well as those who want to save money by not purchasing a
box spring or foundation. While platform beds that feature a solid platform are preferred,
slatted platform beds can also adequately support your mattress.
Slatted platform beds must have at least 5 evenly spaced slats. However, depending on
the width of the slats, some beds may contain more. A good rule of thumb is to make sure
there is not more than an inch or so between the slats. If you purchase a platform bed
from any name brand manufacturer, you can rest assured that it will properly support
your mattress. If you have any additional questions, please
