THE IMPORTANCE OF A GOOD FOUNDATION OR BOX SPRING
The Importance of the Foundation/Box Spring
The bedding manufactures recommend that you purchase a box spring/foundation that is specially designed to match your new mattress. A mattress and foundation are engineered to work together as a set, and the foundation takes a lot of the wear and tear, and contributes to the bed’s overall comfort and support. Putting a new mattress on an old foundation it wasn’t designed to work with, or adding a board between the mattress and foundation will impede comfort and reduce the useful life of your new mattress. It may also affect the manufacturer’s warranty.
