No! Emma is a low-maintenance mattress. It is able to lay on almost any surface. It doesn't matter whether it is lying on the ground, on a box spring or on a slat frame, Emma is a mattress that fits every lifestyle. The most important thing is that the surface is clean and dry.
However, if you prefer using a slatted frame, we highly recommend you to choose our Signature Bed where the individual slats should not be more than 3 cm apart.
