Can the base be purchased separately and, if so, is it safe to use without the headboard?

Without the headboard there would be a big open gap at the head of the bed. I'm not sure if it's sold separate but you want the headboard If you get this

I have only seen it advertised here and elsewhere as a unit. I don't think it would be stable without the 4th side.

The headboard is a separate piece but it is an integral/structural part of the bed. Not using it would require fairly significant modification.

Hi, for sure you can use it without a headboard. If you change your mind, take a look at model 3107270. Thank you so much!

Yes, you need a box spring. It only comes as headboard, footboard, and the frame. It's very nice. We're extremely happy with it.

I used a box spring for this. If you choose not to use a box spring, you would need to get something to support the mattress. Also, in my opinion, the headboard/footboard would look too high because the mattress would be so low. Hope this helps!

The headboard doesn't come with a footboard that I know of. Mine was headboard only.

When I bought this I bought both versions one with a headboard and the other without, so if it says it has the headboard is included I would assume it is, now when setting it up it is detachable from the bed so if you choose to use it with or without it that is an option.

Hello, thank you for your question.The queen bed includes headboard/footboard/rails. You will not need to buy it separately I hope this helps!

there are several similar items without the headboard included. If you feel like you may want the headboard one day this product comes in several boxes and you can just not attach the headboard to the frame , and bang you have your storage bed without the headboard

Nope, just the headboard is included.You can attach it easily to a metal (or wooden) bedframe that you already have or can get at just about any mattress store.

The base is sold separately. They are heavy and probably best to buy at local hardware store.

I think you are correct - to be honest - we knew that when we ordered and were OK without a headboard. The bed has been fine and has lived up to our expectations. Good luck

You can certainly attach the headboard to the wall using a portion of the leg that is out of sight. I wouldn't recommend leaving it freestanding unless your bedframe can hold it securely against the wall. Frankly, if I'd only wanted a wall-mounted headboard, I'd have made it myself using plywood, batting and fabric. It's an easy task.

No, just a mattress needed. Be careful about the headboard though, ours didn't have the attachments to connect the base of the bed to the headboard piece. Also when you lean back your head will go into the bookshelf space so you need lots of pillows to support.

It might fit but not entirely sure. We set it up and took away our bed frame and just usethe headboard with the base parked up next to the headboard. The base makes your bed move so I think it is best to use without a frame around it.

No, the bed comes head board foot board and frame all come together with the bed. There is no extra purchase.

They can be used separately; however, the top portion will look as it does in the photo.small/short headboard and railing.
