Foam mattress?


What will happen to it if I use it without the box springs?

Nothing, just won’t have as much give, but you can lay a foam mattress on the floor. When I was a teen I had a platform bed 6 ft up, just a Foam Mattress on top of plywood. If you mount one on plywood, though, make sure and drill some air holes so the bottom can breathe, moisture can actually build up on the bottom side, and mold.
