I recently purchased the NORESUND queen sized bed frame and was wondering if it is neccessary to use the Sultan Lade bed slats as well? I will be using a matress and boxspring for the frame and the box spring fits snuggly within the space between the side rails What is the purpose of the bed slats? is it purely for increased matress support? or is it part ofthe frame structure? the instructions that came with the frame seemed to give me the option of not using the bed slats so i was curious and your catalogue doesnt indicate that they are necessary, in fact it almost sugests that they are not necessary as it says that a boxspring is compatible with the frame...also the price you give for the frame online includes the head/footboards, side rails and middle rail but not the slats please let me know the purpose of the bed slats if i have a box spring and matress. thankyou

Thank you for your inquiry. After verification with our product specialist, we would suggest that you use the slats and your boxspring. The slats are part of the bed frame structure and are supposed to strengthen the bed frame. However it is still possible not to use the slats if you feel comfortable to try without them.
