I don't think I ever paid as much for a piece of furniture as I did for my water bed many years ago. It was one of the best and when you were on it you didn't even know it was a water bed except for the fact that it was the sleep I had ever had. Not only was it comfortable but it was such a nice looking bed and I was so proud of it! lol.....the things we do right? Back then I was living with a guy and sex was awesome on that waterbed and something I'll probably never forget. Before this the old fashioned spring type mattresses were still out so this was a big deal to me.

Have you ever had a waterbed or tried sleeping on one? What were your experiences with it?


I loved my waterbed!

I had a water bed.. a waveless kind. It was nice...it was heated in the winter and I left the heat off in the summer unless it made me feel too cold and then I put it on low. I would get back aches sometimes though.. I worked at night and I slept in the day...and I would just die when I came home. I would sleep so long in one place that my spine would get out of alignment and my back would hurt really bad. I ended up giving it away.

Since I lived in San Diego at the time I never needed to put the heater on and just enjoyed the coolness of it.

I had one when I was living with this guy before I had children. It was a big one. he really liked it and felt it helped with his tired sore muscles though for me I found I got more aches because of it. I would rather a standard mattress then a water bed for sure.

I've had a waterbed for 30 years and can't stand to sleep on anything else - I now have a softside with the tubes inside which is terrific. It takes regular old sheets, doesn't have the waves like the old kind did, and is perfect for me.

I've heard of the waterbeds with tubes but never did get to try one. They were supposed to be awesome when they came out and I guess your review proves that they are.

I couldn't believe the difference when I first tried one - my oldest son actually had one before I did. I was sold and when I came into some extra money I invested it in a new bed. Mine has 6 drawers under it which are great for keeping extra blankets, my pajamas, and such but the mattress itself is the greatest - the comfortable sleep of a waterbed without the hard sides, special sheets, and waves.

Hi ctry,
OH, the wonderful waterbed!! I had a waterbed for about twenty years. Then I couldn't find any more mattresses for them so I changed to a regular bed. Bummer, it took quite a while to get used to that again.

I loved my waterbed so much, even the kids had their own. We had four in the house at a time. Guests didn't mind having a night of adventure at our house! LOL

The waterbed was warm and soothing. I really slept well. Since I have changed to a regular bed, I have trouble sleeping, and wake up with aches and pains all over.

Thanks for bringing back some memories for me.

Happy posting..

I got one for my son when he came to San Diego to live with me....although he ended up leaving after 6 months....but he hated the bed! I think he's just an old fashioned type of guy and always was.

I remember those water beds, ctry, and they were sooo popular for a time! I never owned one because at the time I was living in an apartment that prohibited them(something to do with the weight). My cousin, however, did own one, and when I would go and sleep over at her house she would always let me sleep on the water bed. You are absolutely right about getting a good nights sleep on them. One of my daughters had one until about a year ago, and she said she hated to get rid of it.

I remember begging my landlord to let us get one since we lived in an upstairs apartment at the time. He gave in and I was of course thrilled.

No, I never had a waterbed, though I did want one when I was younger. One of my friends had an older brother that had one. However his was the type that actually swished around and when my friend and I sat on it, it felt like we were on a little ride! And it was very uncomfortable. I never wanted one, after that! LOL

Yes, I sure did have a waterbed, and I do miss it. I have a bad back and neck, and that was the best bed I ever had for sleeping. Nice and warm in the winter especially, and it felt sooooo good on my bones.

What a pain it was if you moved residences though, ugh, plus it really took up most of the bedroom, haha. I had a high one with drawers underneath it. Being short, I use to get a running start just for fun to get on it, hahaha. I did enjoy it very much though, and my back misses it.

My parents always had one, and I had one briefly in the late 80's. I never cared for them much though; I always ended up between the mattress and the frame and mine had a bum heater that kept going out so you would wake up FREEZING. And I lived in Pheonix!

I also hated when the sheets would slide off; the mattress felt terrible against my skin.

I now have a memory foam and it is the best thing going.
