Is it a Foundation or a Box-Spring?
This is a common question-they are essentially the same thing. They serve the same purpose as a traditional box-spring. The Classic Brands Low-Profile 4-Inch Instant Foundation supports all mattress types and as the name applies, it is easily and quickly assembled. The solid spruce foundation is made is the USA in Pennsylvania Amish Country and ships with all tools for assembly and a cotton blend cover.
Benefits of the Low-Profile Foundation
The Instant Foundation is made in the USA in the Pennsylvania Amish country. Made of solid spruce, the Low-Profile Foundation is a good option for people who have high bed frames or are purchasing an extra-thick, higher profile mattress. The 4-Inch Low-Profile Foundation is 4-inches shorter than a standard foundation, offering easier access to those who may have difficulty getting onto a higher bed. This foundation ships small parcel conveniently right to your door. Narrow hallways and small staircases won't be an issue.
Easy Assembly
The Instant Foundation is easy to assemble and sets up in minutes, just unpack, assemble the frame and attach the hardware. Next simply place the wood slats on the foundation. The cover fits right on giving you the perfect mattress foundation. All standard bed sizes are available, and the foundation works great with memory foam mattresses or latex mattresses. The difference in height between a low profile and regular profile foundation will change the amount of headboard that is visible. Made in the USA in Amish Country Pennsylvania of solid spruce. •Step 1-Unpack box and lay out all materials •Step 2-Lay out the outer perimeter of the foundation, then find the middle support slats •Step 3-Using the provided hardware, screw the sides of the foundation together-(Detailed instructions for this step included with foundation) •Step 4-Lay slats in place on top of frame •Step 5-Screw in slats •Step 6-Cover frame of foundation and use drawstring to secure

You may want to know that this product comes in a very long box, it is over 6' long and about 1'x1' high by wide, it is also quite heavy. The wood is some what rough, but just look inside any box spring and you will probably see much courser wood, but be cautious not to get splinters while handling the uncovered wood. It come with a wrench, and actual forged wrench not just a stamped sheet metal wrench, but you will need a screw driver or preferably a screw gun/ drill driver. If you are the least bit proficient with hand tools the is a snap to put together. Even without instructions it did not take more then a 5 minutes to figure out how it was intended to be be put together. As I recall there is also quite a few pictures on amazon which is probably enough information to answer most assembly questions.
I hope this is helpful
I ordered the king size. It went together very easy, especially since I used a drill. The most "difficult" part was screwing the slats to the frame (hence, drill) which they suggest using a screw driver for lol. All other parts are bolted on and the tools are provided for that. Probably took 20 minutes max to assemble.
The king has two support beams in the middle which I was very happy to find. Before I ordered I was more skeptical about the slats and how many there would be but it came with a good amount (I wasnt too afraid to go to a hardware store and buy/cut wood for more slats but I didnt need to). Not much else to say about assembly, it was straight forward.
As soon as I laid down I could tell there was great support, this frame was just what we needed: a base. A couple more nights passed and I made this review; it is a great base, especially for the money. As I said before, our frame said we wouldnt need a base but after getting this frame there is a welcome and noticeable difference.
Now for the bad. The only negative I could think of was the cover: it's akin to a bed sheet. It's thick and all that good stuff, but it goes on top of the frame and there's a drawstring to tighten the cover over the frame. I was expecting something more like a pillow case the covered top and bottom.
I have recommended this to people already and would absolutely buy it again.
Some details:
I was concerned that the frame might squeak or creak when used but we've had it about a week and it's been silent throughout. I've only heard a creak twice. Those were the very first time I hopped onto the mattress and one time that I plopped down on it's side to sit. Both times I was moving pretty quickly and landed on the bed suddenly so no surprise.
I was concerned the support might be insufficient for the mattress. This has not been an issue. The California King now comes with two evenly spaced center beams for additional support and there are now 11 slats instead of 10. This means the spacing between slats is just slightly more than 4" which provides really good support. The open construction allows plenty of air to circulate which helps keep the mattress cool.
Some negative reviews talk about unfinished wood, splinters, cracks in the wood, etc. The wood for our foundation was lightly sanded, I didn't need gloves, and I didn't have any problems with splinters. Would it have been possible? I'd guess so but it would have been a fluke or accident if I had gotten any. One slat showed some slight cracking along some of the grain but nothing that affected it's integrity.
Get a socket wrench and an electric drill if you don't have one. Yes, you can put it together without these tools but you will save a boatload of time using them. There are now 44 screws which would have been very tedious turning by hand. With an electric drill and screwdriver attachment it was quick work. Likewise, tIghtening the 16 nuts and bolts holding the frame and support beams together was a lot easier with a socket wrench as well. All told, I'd guess I spent an hour laying out the materials and assembling everything myself. I intentionally was taking my time and checking things twice before putting it together.
Partially tighten the nuts and bolts all the way around before finalizing. I read this in another review and it is good advice to ensure a nice, tight construction. Come back for the final tightening after all sections have been assembled.
Also, note that the center supports are marked, "This Side Up" on one side. Be sure to look for that prior to assembling.
That's about it. I'm glad we bought this foundation. I only wish I had done this years ago.

I looked at the options from big-box store but didn't want to spend $80 in delivery fees. On a whim I checked Amazon and found this and decided to try this DIY assembly option. I'm glad that I did.
It was super easy to put together. It arrived in a manageable box size. And now my bed is a normal height. There's nothing more I can say about this. I love it!
Also, I've had the item for 3 weeks and there's no squeaking or movement. It's super sturdy and well worth the price.
