It has an adjustment for thick mattresses. My son's mattress is about 10" thick and rail is about 13" above mattress (measuring from top of mattress to top of guardrail)

I think it would. It uses hooks that go under the mattress and across the box spring. It might be more difficult to fold down though. We use ours on a pillow top queen.

It may be snug and a struggle to first get it situated (particularly if you put one on each side),but it works for us.

It should. I have ours on a king mattress and has plenty of height above mattress top.

When the "Twin/Twin" option is selected, the first line of the description reads "This option is for two Twin Size mattresses." Yet I personally received only a single mattress and am now struggling with a return/exchange to get the two-pack that was ordered. Best to play it safe and just order qty 2 of the single twin option.

I'm not sure. I have a queen mattress with a box spring and my bed sits up pretty high. I have a7 lb Shorkie and he can barely jump up on it. (although he's not allowed on the bed). However, when I'm at work I have a feeling that he's up there...Bed skirts are pretty standard to your mattress size. I believe twin beds have extra long twin and regular twin.

I'm wondering the same thing because the measurements in the descriptions say they're the same size but the mattress cover is more expensive. I'm sitting here debating if I should save some money and get two box spring covers or just get one of each to be safe. Wish you could have gotten a real answer instead of a smartass one :/

No, you don't need boxsprings. And if you want the mattress to fit very snuggly, you might want to buy the longer twin mattress.

I did not see a warning label about the thickness of the mattress. I did buy also a 3 inch thick mattress. In the highest position the bed can go in, the warning may be because there is less room before a very active baby could go over the rail. This is just a guess on my part. I am planning on lowering the position of the mattress as soon as my grandson becomes an active roller.

I purchased this mattress for a hospital full size bed, they advertise it for a hospital bed.The problem is the mattress is about a foot short, and when you elevate the bed of course the mattress slides to the bottom.I contacted the company, because of their advertisement for a hospital bed, they wanted me to ship back the mattress, i had no problem except i didnt know how to ship it. Well that was the very last i heard from them. Im so displeased, Make sure you measure the length of the mattress.

I have purchased several of the mattress in a box and I'm always amazed at the size of the boxes. just checked the box and make sure it is labeled right and you should be good to go

Ms. Phillips, I think this will work for you as a bedspread. The reason I say this is because my queen size bed frame is 14 inches from the floor meaning this is where my box spring starts which is 8 inches and I also have a pillow top mattress which is 12 inches. I need the king size to fit my bed because of the height issues I have so if your bed is not that high off the floor the king should work for you as a bedspread. Hope this will help you in making your decision.

I put a regular box spring and mattress on the bed. My daughter is quite happy with it's comfort! I'm not sure what "other" option there would be other than the "normal" box spring and mattress. It's a beautiful bed and very comfortable. Keep in mind, the bed is only about 7-8 inches up from the floor so, there isn't a lot of height for storage under it. You know, for sweater boxes and such.

That never occurred to me before, but now that you mention it, the twin mattress we got at Ikea doesn't stretch all the way. It's probably about 5 inches short, but since my son uses the top bunk for stuffed animal storage mostly, it hasn't caused a problem.

I just put this together today and I would say the answer as to whether a standard twin bed skirt would work is "no". A standard twin has skirt flaps on 3 sides (2 long and 1 short) but the daybed needs 2 short sides and 1 long side. I measured from the top of the front slat support rail to the floor and it was 17 inches. The twin skirt that I happened to have is too short. I tried to make it work since you can't really see the left side of the bed so not having a flap over there would not matter and I tucked the other long side under the mattress. The problem is that trying to make it hang longer in the front makes the front corner too far forward. It also slides around to easily while you are trying to position the mattress. I think it is because of the smooth finish on the wood. I had a daybed years ago that had a metal spring frame as the support insead of wooden slats and rails and that made it easier to use a standard twin skirt. The spring frame attached to the wood frame at the corners only so there was space to let the skirt hang directly from over the edge of the spring frame. Hope this helps.

We have a standard mattress on there (no box spring) so my son has probably at least 6 inches of the guard rail above the mattress which seems to be enough. My guess is if you also had the box spring there wouldn't really be any guard rail above that.

I don't have this bedding set, and my daughter is still in a crib... BUT, When my sister purchased this bed for her son, she worried about him falling out and just got crafty for a bed rail. We cut a pool noodle in half, length and width, and placed it under the bed sheet as a rail. Worked FANTASTIC.

if its a full mattress, go full.. but since daybeds dont typically have a boxspring, i think the twin would be fine.. there is definately room on the sides.. and we only have the mattress on the bed, bot boxspring as well. hope that helps! my son loves his

The product is available for 6-9", 9-12", 12-15" and 15-18". Each of which is available on http://amazon.com. This particular product is the 9-12" as stated in the product title. This would mean that if your mattress is a queen and is 11", you would simply purchase this item in queen. If your mattress were a 9" full you would purchase the 6-9" full (not this product). If your mattress were a 10" twin you would purchase the 9-12" twin (not this product). This is just for mattresses that are 9-12" thick. Any other depths would be a different SafeRest product to fit that particular depth. Hope this helps as we greatly appreciate your business.

Remember the box spring is exactly that. It's the shape of a box. Not really any room for slack. And you definitely do not want to tear the cover while putting it on. Mattresses comes in different sizes. I did try to cover a twin box spring with a twin mattress cover but my twin box spring was actually a twin XL. You can try it if it saves you money. I also found that my local Walmart sold mattress covers but not box spring covers..
