ZINUS Compack Fabric Covered Wood Slats, Bunkie Board, Box Spring Replacement, Queen

Was skeptical of Zinus, they have "2,000 lb." bed frames for memory foam mattresses that break in a year (white label: it's the same as many other frames for $125.)But these did the job. Vertical wood slats combined with my existing bed frame's metal horizontal beams means no sagging, every part of the bed feels even, and no dipping.Some notes:-- For spring mattresses, this will NOT replace your box spring. Seen a lot of pics of folks putting this in traditional metal bed frames expecting it to work. (Same as any other long planks of wood: if a kid jumps on the mattress, without cross members, it'll snap. What is expected here?) This is meant to add stability to beds with existing horizontal slats of some kind (wood, metal, etc.) that are just too far apart for a mattress to be well supported.-- Sliding around is real, but again, this shouldn't be the sole thing holding the mattress up. This is intended to be part of mattress support, not a sole support. After placing the mattress on, I let the planks shift inward, then pulled them back to the edge and checked underneath that none were overlapping or doubled up. All set.-- My current bed frame has horizontal slats, but the measurements were over 6" apart, which is against most memory foam mattress warranties. By putting these over it, it has a "lattice" appearance combined with the horizontal slats, and the wood makes contact with each horizontal slats distributing weight across all of the slats evenly (versus each horizontal slats receiving pressure and shifting/bending/buckling over time on their own.)-- Mold sucks. I'm sorry for those who found them with mold shipped. This is common with wood products and shipping containers + moisture + time, it is extremely possible these left the factory 100% but had spores on the wood or they transferred on from other contaminated product mid shipment. Its also possible Zinus failed a quality check. I'm not writing this for them. I bought these, no freebies or review samples here.I'm a big guy, but not tremendously so. 280 lbs, 6 ft. tall. And I've learned that most weight ratings on mass-produced bed platforms are nonsense. Anything spot-welded breaks over time just as easily as wood snaps given time and repeated pressure. I don't even slump down when I'm tired, I'm careful to sit each time before lying, and it still happens. The goal is getting more time out of a cheap bed frame, versus paying $600-1,200 for something with all sorts of feature I don't need (shelves, upholstered pillow-stitch headboard, trundle bed, drawers, etc.) that is likely assembled the exact same way with the same quality of parts.In closing, you can't pay for quality without overseeing someone custom-building it or doing it yourself. So, stack the deck where you can. This isn't going to replace a box spring. But it's a lot less unwieldy and likely cheaper (wood prices haven't really come back down) than getting a plywood sheet from the hardware store cut to fit your bedframe, stapling a fabric cover over it, and laying over the slats to 'back them up'. That's what this is for.

Supports the mattress well and seems like decent build quality. Doesn't slide much under the weight of the mattress. Very convenient to set up by just unfolding two separate sections to make a king size. True to size

Perfect for under my daybed mattress.

You can’t see it, but it’s there. I got this for my new BigFig mattress. They recommend a bed with really close slats and I don’t want to buy their brands bed frame to save money. And most bed frames don’t meet their suggested requirements. So I got this as extra support. And I’d say it does exactly that without the bulk of a boxspring. I will agree like others have said. Getting the mattress k place is hard without these moving! They are fairing and slip on the wood frame. If I ever take my mattress of my bed. I’m adding Velcro or doing something to help it secure down and not shift as easy.

Great sturdy product. Comes in two pieces. I used zip ties to attach them together and it worked out great!

Cumple su función, lo único malo es que se ruedan pero nada del otro mundo

It’s fits my king bed frame fine. I moves a little but will update once I put mattress on. It’s the cloth on the mattress that’s makes it slide.

Works okay, but most foam mattress manufacturers suggest no more than 2.75" between slats. Check your mattress warranty thoroughly before purchase or you may not be covered if you have a problem. Also comes in two separate pieces. Lots of people have complained about them sliding around when trying to put the mattress back on. This can be easily remedied by screwing down the outermost slats to the cross members you should have below. You don't have to screw down all the slats as they're held in place with the material that holds the slats themselves. You just have to screw the outermost slats on each of the two sections, for a total of eight 1.25" drywall screws for the whole project on a full size kit.
