If you regularly wake up feeling stiff or sore, or if you are not sleeping as well as you did a year ago, it might be time to replace what you are sleeping on. There are many factors to consider when buying a new mattress. Mattresses wear at different rates so the average lifespan of a mattress varies. The best way to know if it is time for you to replace your mattress is to consider your personal comfort level, lifestyle, and changes in your body. Changes in lifestyle and age can affect your need for support or comfort preferences in a mattress. Clues its time for a new mattress. If a simple check of your body and lifestyle isn’t enough, consider checking your mattress twice a year for wear and ask yourself these specific questions.

Are you waking up with back pain or feeling stiff or sore? Would a new mattress improve your sleep? Are you having your best night’s sleep someplace other than your own bed? Source: “The Better Sleep Council” A Word About Box Springs Low-Profile Box Springs: Occasionally a standard height box spring (8″) is too high for some of today’s thick mattresses. At 5 1/2″ the low profile box spring is a perfect fit for these situations. Both the semi-flex and modular box springs are available as low-profile models. Split Box Springs: We make 2-piece full sized and queen sized box spring for the occasion when a standard 1-piece box spring will not fit into the house. These box springs are split lengthwise. All 2-piece box springs require a 6 legged frame for support.Check out our FAQ’s page Nelson Thin Edge Bed Click on image to zoom Designer: George NelsonRepresentative of George Nelson’s timeless, human-centered approach to design, the Nelson Thin Edge Bed is as at home in today's bedrooms as it was when first introduced in 1954.
With a slim, horizontal profile, efficient and precise detailing, and expert woodcraft, the Nelson Thin Edge bed brings elegant minimalism to the bedroom once more. Configure Your Nelson Thin Edge Bed Add to Wish List At a time when interiors and furniture tended to be heavyset and ornate, George Nelson sought to free the American home from excess. In 1954, he engineered the Thin Edge Bed to eliminate the need for bulky box springs and a hefty mattress. Details like the trim footboard which holds the mattress in place or the expertly crafted stainless steel joinery gives the Nelson Thin Edge Bed a light, minimal aesthetic. “In an era of movement, we find that planes set the style.” With the full cooperation of the Nelson Foundation, Herman Miller has updated the archival design to better support the contemporary home. Solid hardwood ash slats replace the spring undercarriage for more support and durability. It is available in Twin, Full, Queen, King, and California King sizes.
Nelson Thin Edge Bed comes with a natural cane headboard, adding texture to the design, or a veneer headboard that echoes the bed’s minimalist tenor. In addition to the classic stainless steel H Frame legs, there is an option of tapered wood legs for those who prefer an all-wood frame. Originally offered in walnut and birch, we continue this material heritage with sustainably harvested walnut, as well as an updated version in white ash, a more durable and richer wood than the original birch.

I reread your post a few times because I am confused by the end of question. The platform or box spring generally speaking is not what doesn't last. The mattress is what has to be replaced. Having had both a platform bed and a box spring I found little difference in the replacement of the mattress. The platform certainly had less "give" than the box spring and offered a firmer base for the mattress but that is simply preference or perhaps taste in a particular style of bed. I suggest buying the best mattress you can afford and by testing it out to see how comfortable you are while lying on it. Have a good sleep. 866 posts, read 2,326,770 times Originally Posted by nuts2uiam I added that because mattress salesmen claim that you'll need to replace the mattress more often if you use a platform. I wasn't sure if there was some truth to that or not. Originally Posted by Niftybergin yes, low profile box spring. It was driving me nuts as I couldn't remember how to phrase it when I wrote my post.
So true about the sales people not mentioning the different sizes. I had no idea they had them until we purchased a mattress set for the guest room. We went to Macy's and the sales person mentioned it to me. We put the set in a IKEA metal bed and the low profile box spring fix perfectly where it didnt show. When it came time to order a bed for our room, I had to ask the sales person for the low profile. He actually tried talking me out of it saying the bed would be too low. I'm glad I didnt listen because when the mattress set arrived, it would have been higher than our footboard. I don't like a really high bed either. I see them in fine furniture stores and you can buy the decorative step to go with it. Sheesh, after a long day I don't want to literally climb into bed.

In a lot of those kinds of homes, a higher bed does help keep the room from seeing visually way out of scale.
