I goofed! Need to lower a bed.

Jennifer Hogan
3 years ago

We had a local store go out of business. I knew I needed a mattress / bed for my guest room, so I bought a Kings Down queen mattress at 50% off. They threw in a free box spring and frame. All sales final.


The combined height of the mattress/frame and box spring is 32". The top of my headboard is 36" and I have 8' ceilings.


If I remove the box spring it will lower the mattress by 9", which feels more appropriate for my MCM style home.


Was thinking a solid base with drawers may be really nice for extra storage.


Other idea was to simply get another frame that is appropriate for a plywood support.


Needs to handle 2 people each weighing over 200 lbs. without issues, so something solidly made.


Anyone have experience / brand suggestions / advice?
