Hi Pete,
Does a New Mattress Need a New Boxspring?
What is the importance of buying a new foundation/box spring when buying a new mattress?
Thanks, Juliana
Hi Juliana,
Unless you are using a platform bed or adjustable bed base, your new mattress warranty will be void if you put it on an non-matching boxspring.
If you have an “old” boxspring, it will have weeks spots, to which the new mattress will conform, which will cause the mattress to lose its shape quickly.
If your boxspring is only a couple/few years old, you now enter a grey area in making this decision. Under these circumstances, there are things to consider.
1) Your boxspring is likely to be fine and doesn’t need replacing.
2) It’s already difficult to prevail in a mattress warranty claim, today.
(Factories will use any loop hole they can to not replace a mattress, which are all listed on the warranty card. I suggest you read it).
If you have purchased a plush or pillowtop mattress, you can almost be assured of needing that warranty.
If your mattress is firm without a pillowtop, putting it on a reasonably newer boxspring is a good gamble, as you aren’t likely to need the manufacturer’s warranty.
