MATTRESS SIZE

The Right Foundation

Supporting your mattress with the right foundation is just as important as the mattress itself! You can choose between a foundation, a box spring, or an adjustable base.

We highly recommend purchasing the foundation or box spring made specifically to complement your particular mattress to ensure the manufacturer’s warrant is not voided due to insufficient support.

Foundation Size Options

There are options for each size of foundation or box spring, as shown below. Some sizes are in one piece and some are available in two pieces to accommodate navigating smaller spaces.

Foundation Height

Most foundations are available in two different heights. This allows you to decide how tall the bed will be. With a taller mattress, a low-profile foundation can even out the height.
