Low Profile Box Spring
Have you seen how a low profile box spring makes a bed look? This relatively new product provides new benefits to bed owners who use a box spring. Identical to its larger counterparts in all aspects except for its height, this thinner version may be perfect for you.This is not a fad but a concept that is worthy of your time to consider the possibility of owning this style of box spring. The unique feature of this style is that it is about 5 inches in height compared to the standard or traditional height which is about 9 inches. Due to its very low profile, it may not be the perfect choice for taller individuals.
Why consider a low profile style?
It doesn't matter if the box spring will be placed on a basic metal bed frame or on bed frame that is part of your dream bedroom set. The low profile box spring is designed to provide a different, more sleek look in a bedroom. Especially if the mattress and box springs will be used with a low headboard/footboard. Other than the height, there should be no difference of support between this style and a 9-inch version of the same box spring.
In addition, many find that it is easier to get into and out of bed easier with a low profile box spring when they indulge in a pillow-top or other extremely thick style of mattress. By placing an extra thick mattress on top of a 9-inch high box spring can simply be too much for many individuals to deal with.
For those individuals who have physical limitations or perhaps are shorter in stature, the low profile lowers the top of the bed itself. This allows easier access for the individual so stress, pain or other issues are limited and a quality night's sleep is increased. Also, this lower profile does not limit the kind or style of mattress that can be matched with it.
What are the differences?
In comparison to a traditional box spring, there is are no differences between a low profile box spring compared to a mid profile or standard profile box spring. Just about every manufacturer that offers a box spring offers a low profile along with the other styles available. The quality that you expect from a particular brand will be found in every style of box spring they offer along with any other features that may also be offered.For example, if you were to place a Serta Perfect Sleeper low profile version next to their Perfect Sleeper standard version, you will see that the material and the construction beneath the material will be the same. The only difference you will see is the variance in height. Of course, the overall weight of the box springs and the price points will be slightly different too.

Choosing a mattress can be time consuming and you will probably do quite a bit of research on which mattress will be the best for you. Choosing a box spring won't take as long although now with different styles available, you may want to take the time to consider your options. A low profile box spring may be ideal for you.
