Would this possibly work on a waterbed...could not have any sharp edges that could puncture the mattress...i am most comfortable in a waterbed. Thanks

Hello Kay,Unfortunately the BedCane could not be properly installed on a water bed. It is made to slip between a mattress and box spring. It also has a strap that needs to go underneath the mattress to the other side and buckle. Another solution for you would be to look at our Security Pole and Curve Grab Bar and install it next to your water bed. This would give you a solid handle to help you enter or exit a bed. If you have any questions call us at 1-800-506-9901 or email me directly at kylej@stander.com.

I think the wood board under the matress could cut the vinyl and would be very difficult to wrap the strap around the base with wood side supports. That said, where there is a will there is probably a way...lol.

I disagree with the previous comment. I've been using this mattress on a wood floor, and it must be aired and dried out constantly or else water will condense on the entire underside of the foam and cause mold. I've been looking for a good slatted base to put it on so that it will breathe.

This is from my sister: You could, but they probably wouldn't fit very well... the bottom sheet would be way too big... the top sheet doesn't matter as much (the more you have, the more you tuck in.) I've tried to use waterbed sheets on a regular mattress and vise-versa, and it doesn't work well.

I would think it would definitely make a futon mattress more comfortable. In my experience, futons are rather dense and unyielding. I used mine on a very hard mattress on a rented hospital bed. I would not have been able to sleep without it.

I'm not sure how well the waterproof mattresses work. I never had any. But this cover works excellent. I would think in the middle of the night it would be easier to just remove this cover and slip on a new sheet rather than having to clean up the mattress and make the bed again. My son (4.5) has accidents in the middle of the night every now and again, and it is not fun when it's 67 degrees in the house at 3 a.m. (It's been a COLD winter)! I clean him up, strip his sheet and cover, remake the bed and I'm back in bed in 1/2 hr! They will usually only have one accident a night, so you'll make it to the next day when you can wash the cover and get it back on the bed before the next night.

I used this mattress cover for a waterbed. The top fits across the whole mattress beautifully and the sides are long enough and deep enough that they cover every part of the water mattress except the bottom. The mattress cover stays in place night after night without issue. With the cover on, I no longer have any part of the water mattress exposed. Take THAT cat!!!

This foundation is not suitable for waterbed. This would be a better option for waterbeds. http://www.amazon.com/Classic-Brands-Platform-Mattress-Foundation/dp/B00UA62WXW/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1429792905&sr=8-1&keywords=europa+platform+bed

I didn't have any issues but I have a pillow top. It works well on my tall mattress. It's worth the buy even if you have to buy those elastic bits with the clips to hold it on. Side note, I'd say this is water resistant rather than water proof. Wouldn't recommend for a bed wetter.

I guess that depends what you need it to do? I'm using it on my waterbed.I wanted to make the bed firmer. Size is no problem as it should spread and stretch with no problem.

You can use the waterbed mattress as is, but then if it springs a leak you will have a terrible flood without a liner. A liner is a cheap insurance policy, and it also helps protect the mattress from splinters and other imperfections in your frame that might cause a leak. But if you have an old liner you can re-use that if it's in good condition.

I suggest you get a thick cover to help protect the mattress. At first the nails of my dog didn't puncture my air bed (different model) but then he eventually did.

Stanley, If your mattress had a boston valve with male threads, meaning it threads IN to not On to, your mattress one of these 2 in the kit should work. My purchase was for inflatable watersport products.

These will work on a waterbed mattress if it is the kind of mattress that has a seam to "grip" on to. It your waterbed mattress is only a flat freeflow than these will not work. They have to have something to "grip" on to, hence the name Grippers.

Hi Kimberly! I think the pillow would work fine on the tempurpedic mattress. The pillow does weigh more than a standard foam pillow but it's not too heavy. I had the same concern about the weight even though we have a traditional spring mattress. To alleviate my own worry, I simply put the water pillow on one of our other standard pillows when I make the bed in the morning. We've been using the water pillow for awhile now and we haven't had any problems with its performance or with it causing damage to the bed. I think you'll love it. I hope this helps :)

No the fitted part of the sheet will not fit a standard mattress. It looks similar to a flat sheet with triangle corners to hold it on the waterbed mattress.

I think it could work but only if you put a piece of plywood on top so that the weight is evenly distributed (no hollow space in the middle). Waterbeds weigh a whole lot more than a mattress and they only have small shelves underneath them. It's the board that goes on top of the shelves/frame that gives it the strength.

I agree with Lauren0418. I wouldn't call it a "mattress"... it seems uncomfortable to me and our nebworn did not like it. Looked cold and uninviting. I wish i new about putting another pad (which is another purchase).. maybe that would have helped.
