Can you use a box spring for them or are they not made for a mattress and a box spring?

I don't see why it wouldn't work. I think IKEA makes a few box springs, and a few of their demo units use them. But yeah, they're more of a "slatted bed base" company.
The IKEA store people are some of the nicest people I've ever bought stuff from so I'm sure you could just ask them. No such thing as a stupid question, after all
To update this thread, I went "real IKEA shopping" this spring. I got a complete bed for $40, a mattress for $75, a desk for $35, a TV stand (now used as a printer stand) for $20...you get the picture. If it weren't for IKEA I would have, like, no furniture
