Hi clay_williams,
Thanks for taking the time to share your comments and experiences … and for letting us know what you decided to purchase … I appreciate it.
Thanks for the kind words as well.
As you know I think you made a great quality/value choice … and congratulations on your new mattress
I don’t know the specifics of your bedframe but if it has 5 wooden slats or more and has good center support to the floor then it would most likely be fine.
I also don’t know the specifics of your foundation (hopefully it’s a foundation that doesn’t flex and not a box spring that flexes or has springs inside it) but most foundations would be suitable for your mattress. There is more about the different types of support systems that are generally suitable for different types of mattresses in the foundation post here but if you are at all uncertain then if you call Dreamfoam and describe the foundation/box spring to them they would be able to tell you whether it would be suitable for your mattress.
In very general terms a support system that is flat and doesn’t flex and has either a wire grid surface or gaps that are about 5" or less between the slats will generally be fine and the firmer it is and the more support surface it has (as long as it allows for some ventilation) the better.
I’m looking forward to your comments and feedback when you’ve received it and have had the chance to sleep on it for a bit.
