Slats, Solid Platform, Hybrid Mattress?

I have a Luma Sleep Hybrid. Since they’re no longer in business I can’t reference their website to recall the actual construction, but I know it’s springs, medium firmness dunlop, and then I have a talalay topper.

We moved and I want to buy a new bed frame that will fit under our window frame since it’s the only place for a king bed in this room. The only one I can find that will fit under the window and has the look I want is the West Elm Roan, but the slat spacing it 4.4". With my mattress construction, is this even doable? Could I add a bunkie board or does that introduce breathability concerns?

What size is your bed? 4.2" isn’t terrible, but closer than that would be better.

I just wanted to mention incline sleeping, since the frame you were looking at is about $1000, theres a queen size inclining bed frame on mattressfoundations.com for $1000 that has a very high quality slat system with 1.5" spacing. I’ve been seeing people are getting huge benefits from sleeping from 4-6" inclined. And they also have an extremely good quality standard frame support. Which looks different than the one you mentioned, but it is only about $500.

Thanks, the bed is a king and I’m really set on a wood mid-century looking bed, but I appreciate the tip!

In that case, you can just buy another set of slats that would fit in between what’s there on amazon. Or if you decided to try incline sleeping, that site i shared has foam wedges to place under the mattress. I think that would basically negate the slat spacing being a little too far.
