I wonder if an Aerobed air mattress would fit on this platform bed? (queen mattress/queen bed?)

To be honest with you, we were temporarily using an air mattress that is a queen size, and it doesn't fit within the frame. This frame is strictly for a full mattress.

I bought a full size bed frame and its big enough to fit a queen size mattress.

The mattress pad I got was for a king size bed - so I guess it depends on how big your air bed is.

Don't think so- plus this is the worst aero bed I have bought. I owned 2 before and they were great. This model was horrible. The air didn't last the night. We woke up on the hard floor in the morning.

If you select twin - it should. For the record, I purchased a king size and it fit the platform bed to perfection

Depends on the rail I think. Side rails usually have straps that slide under the mattress. Some wrap around the box spring but others have a 'catch' (on the other side of the bed) at the end of the strap. I would think it could be worked out. In fact, I tend to think even the ones that wrap around the box spring could wrap around the platform portion of the bed in the same way

There are beds that can be inflated with a foot pump. The last two Aerobeds that I purchased have failed. Do not buy one

This will ONLY work WITH a boxspring. This is not a platform bed.. It just looks like one :) I have a boxspring and it's perfect

Nope, the frame fits a queen size mattress and the mattress over laps the frame, making it into a platform bed.

If it were me, I would NOT use an air mattress on it. There are too many steel rails or "edges" on this frame that can, over time and pressure, cause a rupture in an air mattress, compared to laying an air mattress on a box-spring or the floor, where all the pressure of the air mattress is evenly distributed.

As a platform bed, my mattress only has cushioning on one side. The other has a wood frame which rests on the platform. Any mattress would probably be fine, as the box spring would support the mattress over the platform feature.

Nice and sturdy. But I dont know about an air mattress..I'd probably cover it with something first.

just a follow-up to prior response: I researched this issue too before I bought, and the gist of it was NOT to do so. reasons: mattress breathability and no useful purpose served. thus, if you like a really high bed, ok. if not, don't. by the way, the mattress is pretty thick anyway, and my platform bed works just great w/o box.

I think it would be fine on anything from an inner-spring setup to just a plywood sheet on a platform bed. Personal preference may dictate; I like firm and am using a plywood sheet on top of an inner-spring foundation. I have a queen size arranged in stiffest configuration and I'm 6'3" and 210 lb. I've had mine over a year and love it.

Patricia, I doubt the air mattress is firm enough. I have a 10" deep, firm [Tempur Pedic] mattress on top of a box spring that is at least 8" deep. They sit on a solid plywood base. The bed rail fits between the box spring and mattress, giving it lots of stability. Sorry.

I don't think this will work for you, Patricia. The manufacturer says it won't work with lightweight foam mattresses so I doubt an air mattress would have enough weight to hold it in place and it would be dangerous.

Hello,To answer your question; noI put a queen size mattress on it and it just fits.

Yes! It will knock you out. We had a little air compressor that came with an aero bed that we used. If you try to do it yourself, allow several days to get it done.
