I got a new full sized bed. The problem is my full/queen sized bedding does not fit. The height of the bed and the box spring togeather is so high my bedding doesn't fit right my my bed. Do I really need a box spring or can i just have my mattres? Thank you!!:D
You don*t need a box spring but it will be a more comfortable bed with it. If it is too high why not just put a bed skirt around the bed; Even something simple like a king sized sheet between the mattress and box spring will fill in the height dept. for you. to cover the height.or put the sheet right on top of the mattress and let it hang to the floor.
The box spring provides firmness and support for the mattress. If you lay the mattress on the floor you can do without it, however putting the mattress directly onto the bed frame would warp the bed. Also, unless you are having someone in your room that cares what your sheets look like, I suggest just continuing to use them, it is a huge help to your wallet.
You need to purchase deep pocket sheets to cover your mattress. Your new mattress needs to have the support of the box spring, or you take the chance of ruining the mattress. (The exception would be if you were putting the mattress directly on the floor, or had a box bed, in which case the box acts as the box spring). Not to mention, that not using a box spring may void out any warranty that came along with the purchase of the new bed. I'd check with the place that you purchased the bed from. Best of luck.
