Ours did not come with the cover on. It tore as we tried. Both the way in the picture and any possible combination. We have done many other types of furniture assembly; this one had us stumped. Called manufacturer customer service and they were no help. Almost every YouTube video we found showed the cover on it. Will see how this works once in use.

I bought the 4" folding box springs so that I could lift my 14" combo mattress out of the sleigh bed well. Before, I couldn't make the bed very well. It's perfect, just high enough. I was worried that when it came out of the box & plastic, that it would snap open, not constructed that way. It gently unfolds (you have to push it apart) and then you zip up the cover. I did a queen size all by myself. I have a bunkie board underneath it, so I actually put the folded box springs on that before I opened it.

Im just waiting for the week to be up so I can try to get another one sent. My 12 inch pressure relief green tea mattress is 10 inches at best the corners are curled up and the smell is nauseating. I have aired it out as best as I can but the smell is still there. I have to change my sheets every day cause it sticks to them. My whole room smells sickening. I'd like to give it another try and fingers crossed I can get the one that other people have reviewed with no or little smell and original shape and size..

Every box spring should be made like this. The old-style one-piece box springs are garbage compared to this one, especially if you have an L-shaped stair, winder, or any other spatial challenge. I just bought this for my older daugther's room, and though my younger daughter has a relatively new box spring (under a Zinus mattress) I'm even considering replacing her box spring since it's ridiculously loud (just getting in & out it squeaks something fierce). If you have any sort of curve in your layout or tight space this box spring will outperform the conventional styles we used to settle for- if you don't have these challenges, get this anyway as it will still make your life easier than dealing with the traditional behemoth.

Arrived quickly and was easy to fold out. Also, this product is cheaper (and obviously, much more convenient and sturdy) than the junk others sell at the big box mattress stores. We recently bought an Avocado King mattress and that company does not sell box springs so they recommended Zinus. Glad they did! The new mattress sat too low on our new bed but now with the steel box springs, it is perfect. Note that we originally had the box springs up-side down which is not comfortable. After a night's sleep, we woke up smarter, did the flip and now the new bed, new mattress and new box springs work in harmony.

This box spring frame is a miracle! I have a miniature (short) stairway. A regular queen box spring would not fit down it. Zinus, Jayanna was the answer! It arrived in a timely manner, great condition and was awesome to set up. Really sturdy, 15 minute set up from box opening to on the frame. Highly recommend! Make your life easy! As a single woman don’t rangle a queen box spring, order Zinus!

The box springs were easy to get in the house, up the stairs, unpacked, and folded open. Work very well, stable, rigid, and the fabric cover makes them look like real box springs from the outside even though it’s steel tubing on the inside. Very satisfied.

Initially I was a little cautious about the claims being made but upon receiving and setting up, it is just as advertised and more. Setup was beyond simple and because the foundation is now so sturdy, the feel of our bed has improved. Needless to say I will recommend and will purchase should the need arise again.

I just received my 5 in bifold full size box spring, however I’m now realizing its 1 inch smaller on both ends than the mattress I was going to order. I am having a hard time finding a mattress the same size. Will the extra inch on my mattress look and feel right? Not sure why the dimension's are off. I would think a full size boxspring would be the same dimensions as a full size mattress?

Husband falls asleep in 2 seconds. I'm still a little restless, just because I tend to think about why we waited so long. All I want to do is be in my bed and on the weekends i make time to get a nap in. Earlier I told my coworkers, "I think my mattress is making me lazy because I just want to be wrapped up in the comfort." My lower back pain is gone! Yay! We will definitely be purchasing this brand for our kiddos soon. Thanks Zinus for an Amazing quality product at an outstanding affordable price. P.s the kids loved the bubble wrap and the coloring pages.
