Platform beds?
What kind of mattresses are good for platform beds? Can you use a temper-pedic or pillow top mattress without boxsprings on it? I'm moving tomorrow and are shopping for new bedroom furniture and im stuck on what kind to buy.

you can use any kind of mattresses for platform beds. Temper-pedic is even better but a bit pricey. But if you have 2-3K to spare, go for the Temper-pedic. I'm still waiting to remodel my master bedroom before I the Temper-pedic, but looks like it's going to be years before I can cough up 40K for remodeling
I just moved too and I recently bought a mattress. We have a platform bed frame. We bought this frame because we found a mattress witch is similar to Tempur but cheaper. The mattress was horrible. It was too soft. We had extreme back pain. It was difficult to return it. I can not remember if a Tempur mattress I saw 2 years ago was soft or firm. We found a better mattress. It is firm, the name is England. We made a big mistake, We ordered the mattress and we did not tell them not to bring the box spring. They delivered the items. The bed frame, box spring and mattress was too high. I had to climb on the bed. We did not expect this. Fortunately we could put the box springs under the bed. A platform bed is only to use with a mattress. Any mattress can be used.
