Do You Need a Box Spring for Your Modern-Day Mattress? (2025)

You probably get acquainted With a box of spring, a simple tree frame with springs that act as a support base under the old mattresses. This is not a clever bed (or as a trampoline, or a trampoline), such a mattress continued for centuries because of such a mattress base, just a simple and durable design. But you often haven’t seen you won’t see them today?

In my opinion, as a career mattress test, modern mattresses are off to add this furniture. However, it does not mean that it is automatically downloaded from the mattress installation scenario. Let’s open a box of spring, why you can’t or if you can’t be or need to be able to have anyone or you may need to succeed.

For this article, I trust in our experience Spencer Institute-Tified Sleeping Coach and a mattress for five years, as well as the General Director of the Brand John Merwin (Helix, Nodah, Bear and Leesa and Leesa) and founder Brooklyn bedding.

Backstory of Box Spring

Mattresses were not now and during the day and then the frame extends from the earliest iterations of mattresses 50 years ago for today. Support was, just let’s say a pretty cliff. Thinking of a bed completely filled with grassand more often than you have to work more often. The box spring was designed to ease the lack of support with the application during this period The end of the 18th century.

A box of spring covers a frame of wood or a wooden frame or a framework, or has bobins on the base. A fabric body is involved in keeping everything stored, often. This is a deliberate design option because the rolls in the box spring are spreading to dial him under the horse. The wooden frame has a sloy to ensure that there is no sagging in the middle of the bed while providing some basic backup to bobins.

If we return to Ye Olde Mattress Days or we think the mattresses are something before something (Was in 2004To be accurate), your box was the largest piece of furniture that accompanies your mattress. Over time, the box springs developed to support a certain type of bobins in a certain mattress-traditional bobins.

“Traditional Books are often called Bonnell Bobins used in mattresses for generations,” says 3Z CEO John Merwin. “It is made in a wider and bottom of the top and bottom in the middle and bottom to offer a combination of support and comfort.”

So why does this type of roll first need a box of tumbling? As a result, Sharks came to make sure that the plaque, ER, received support for the Bon Spring. Traditional rolls are designed to offer support and flexibility combination, but these rolls tend to move unit, not separate, because they are connected with a network of wires. “It makes them more dependent on a box or foundation to give them proper support and absorb shock.”
