Do Murphy beds require a box spring?

No, Murphy beds do not require a box spring as they function as platform beds with a built-in mattress base that provides full support on its own, making a box spring both unnecessary and impractical given the folding mechanism. Cubit Furniture’s Murphy Beds are engineered with a precisely built cabinet and silent hydraulic lift system that holds your mattress securely in place through every fold, so you get a comfortable, well-supported sleep without any additional base layer.
