Does the bed frame make the bed more comfortable?

[jfall]

Right now I have my box spring/mattress sitting right on the floor with no frame under it. I was wondering if the bed would be more comfortable if it were on a frame

You sleep on a matress on the floor?

Not quite, the box spring is under it

No. It is completely dependant upon the matress.

No, it does make the platform more or less solid though. We had just a metal frame w/wheels under our mattress for years but when we went to a solid wood bedframe it raised the bed up higher and made the platform much more sturdy. Our bed never moves around now even when you are...ahem, moving around on it.

Oh, well I have a simmons beautyrest mattress which is a pretty good quality mattress but it's a little too firm for my liking. I heard that putting it on a frame may make it more comfortable.. maybe I should try a mattress pad

Getting rid of the box spring tends to make the mattress more comfortable, IMHO. Elevating the mattress off the floor will keep it warmer.

I sleep with my mattress on the floor because my box spring is fscked. It's the only way I can keep my mattress flat so that my back doesn't hurt like hell in the mornings.

Better than sleeping in a van down by the river...
