Queen split box spring vs. one piece?
|
Queen split box spring vs. one piece -- Is a split box something you'd only want to do if you had to, to get it into the room? With king mattress sets, I read a log of complaints that the mattress develops a hump in the center with a depression on either side, becasue of the frames of the adjacent box springs underneath it. Truth, or urban legend? Might the same thing happen with a queen set? If there's a chance that the frame ridge in the center will have adverse effects on the matterss, I'd be better off to get a one-piece spring. But, to insure that it will fit easily into any house, the split box would offer a nice option. But I am leaning toward a one-piece now and only replace it with a 2-piece later, if I really need a 2 piece. Somebody please talk me out of it if that's a bad plan. I don't know anyone who has opthe for a split box on a queen set. Don't say foam mattress. I dislike them all. :-D This message was modified Sep 16, 2010 by TC2334

| Thanks. I'll make a note to check the construction before I buy. I am leaning toward buying a set from Original Mattress Factory. It's in the $700 range. But I'll still looking at other options. Or trying to. It's hard to do from a small town in a rural region. We have furniture stores but they all carry the same "S" brands that everyone here is swearing at, lol. I have to go to Pittsburgh or Cleveland or MIchigan to find anything else. |

| The ridge effect seems to happen in kings just because most modern mattresses develop pretty noticeable body indentations, one on each side of the middle of a king bed is super common. Not likely to get this in a queen due to split bases. |
