### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect solution to replace aging, sagging IKEA slats
*by I***N on May 12, 2025*

I recently upgraded to a heavy memory foam mattress for my IKEA queen Trysil bed frame. I was using a model of IKEA slats that were purchased with the bed many years ago. With the new mattress, I immediately noticed that the old IKEA slats seemed to be sagging and unable to serve as a solid base for the mattress like the manufacturer recommends. I needed to find a solution that would let the mattress breathe while serving as a flat, solid platform (unlike the worn out "suspension" style of uneven IKEA slats I was using).I was disappointed at first because I thought this problem might require purchasing an entirely new bed frame - I didn't want to replace the slats with a new set of IKEA ones, since I figured the same problems would surface over time due to the company's lightweight construction. Then I fortunately stumbled across this as a solution.The Mellow slat system arrived quickly and in perfect condition. My biggest concern was that the size or design would be incompatible with the underlying support structure built into the IKEA frame, but I quickly found out the Mellow system fit perfectly. The Trysil bed has two side rails and a center bar, and the Mellow slat frame aligned with this very well so I knew it would be structurally sound.The only "downside" about the Mellow fit was that there were a couple inches of a gap which would allow the Mellow slat frame to slide around inside the bed frame, but this was easily solved by using some of the soft foam padding from the Mellow packaging to wedge in between gaps on all four sides. I can't knock Mellow for this because I understand the product isn't designed specifically for the model of bed I have - the dimensions still worked and just required the small "hack" to get a perfectly secure fit to eliminate the possibility of sliding. My guess is that the size of the Mellow system allows it to work universally with a number of different bed frames, but I would still recommend that other purchasers measure their bed's internal structure to make sure this would be compatible.The construction was incredibly simple even for a lone person like myself. The queen size comes with a lengthwise bar that has a foam strip on it, which I assumed should be turned so the foam would rest on the wooden slat side to reduce noise, which it seems to do well as there is no noise from my mattress after putting it back on the frame.The height of my mattress ended up being slightly lower than it was with the IKEA slats, because the Mellow system has a lower thickness than the curved slats on the IKEA model. I personally prefer this lower profile since my thick mattress ends up at a perfect height with my nightstands.Overall, I'm extremely satisfied with this solution. It was much cheaper and more convenient than buying a new bed frame. I'm able to sleep comfortably knowing my new mattress is properly supported, which allows it to work as designed and hopefully have better longevity due to a solid support system. I would definitely recommend this to anyone in a similar predicament, as long as you measure your bed carefully to make sure this will work with your existing bed frame like it did with mine.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Easy to assemble and sturdy
*by M***I on May 13, 2025*

Super sturdy! The results are easy to assemble but the velcro isn't stuck great so when I need to lift them (rarely) I do have to be extra careful in some sections. It's low profile, great replacement for a box spring. It does not shift or make noise. Fits queen perfectly.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exactly what we needed!!
*by M***W on November 5, 2024*

We purchased a full sized mattress and box-spring for my daughter's bed frame. Even the low-profile box-spring made the mattress sit far too high. I'd never heard of a "Bunkie Board" but after reading many reviews we landed on this one. This Bunkie Board is a great value ($100 less than the box-spring)! It's very sturdy and was easy to assemble (15 minutes). It fits inside the frame rails perfectly, but I would suggest leaving the existing cross supports in place if you have them (we did). The board provides excellent support for the mattress with very little movement and absolutely zero added noise.
