Question 🙋🏻 I’m not sure what is a slatted bed base. Is it great for airflow?

I’m thinking about setting my bed directly on the floor to save space, but I keep hearing about slatted bed bases and how they help with airflow. I’m not really sure what a slatted bed base actually is or if it would be better for keeping my mattress fresh and ventilated compared to just putting it on the floor.

Has anyone tried both setups? Would a slatted base make a big difference for airflow and mattress life?

Slatted bases are definitely better for airflow than putting a mattress on the floor. Good decision on considering slatted base for your floor bed

Yeah I read a lot of advices from people regarding floor beds that they might trap some dust, mold or ruin the mattress’ airflow by not putting anything underneath that can keep the mattress fresh so I’ve been considering this in a while
