Importance of bed frame, box spring, etc.

[phoenix]

Hi Kingsley,

How do bed frames/box springs interact with mattress shopping? Are there certain types of bed frames that are better or worse with different types of mattresses? Are box springs generally recommended, or only with certain configurations, or what?

Help in this domain would be greatly appreciated.

There is more information about the different types of support systems that will are generally best for different types of mattresses in the foundation post here and the two posts it links to in the second paragraph.
