Hi Aaron,

Thanks for your question.

We usually advise when using any sort of slats to place an old duvet atop the slats to stop the mattress becoming indented.

Similarly, if you're finding that your mattress is dipping then you can get some standard sheets of either MDF, plywood or peg board to place on the slats. You only need something like 3mm. It's personal preference on whether you want a whole piece to fit the bed or you could also have it in 2 half pieces.

Introducing this to the bed should firm it up and stop any further dips.

Mattresses tend to perform better on a uniform surface either a Platform Divan or a Sprung Divan.
