I don't know about a waterbed frame ,but I love my bed rail , since I fell and hurty back it helps me so much to get into bed and out of bed without anyone helping me

It has foam pads that hold it in place. I use it on an adjustable bed and it stays put.

It's held in place by the weight of the mattress: the metal tubes are covered with foam sleeves that help to keep the frame from sliding. It's really a well designed unit that has worked well for my 91 year old mother.

There are two long pieces of the tubing that go under the mattress. I think it would work in the waterbed frame with a regular mattress, but would be difficult to put the bottom sheet on the mattress.

My Mom has a single bed. It slips under the top mattress and box spring. It works great for getting up and is stable enough for her. For yoursituation you must have both mattresses for a full size bed. We tried it on my Dad's full size bed and it worked. My Mom weighs 120 lbs. and myDad weighs 150 lbs. Hopes this helps

It slides very easily between the matress and box spring on our bed. I don't know if you have a box spring under your mattress in your waterbed frame. I have had for 7 months and use it several times every night to get out of bed. Would be helpless without it. Have never had to reposition it since the day it was installed.

The weight of the mattress and when needed the weight of the body keep it stable. Also the part that goes under the mattress is long. I am not familiar with what a waterbed frame is but it needs to slide under the mattress unobstructed.

I believe the person's weight stabilizes it. The rail goes under the mattress pretty far. Mine has been a big help. I'm not sure how well it would work on a waterbed.

I am using a slatted base and it works fine. I was worried about the foam bending through the slats, but it has not. I should also mention that I kept a clean piece of cardboard from the interior of the box that the mattress shipped in, and put this piece of cardboard under where our bodies go. It seems to have done the trick - and for free!

I think that's a great idea for stability it would keep the mattress in place. I would utilize the plywood as a base .

I am using it with a normal mattress and it works really well. Great support.

There are brackets that hold the back to the sides and the side to the front. These brackets are what the inside frame mount to and what the mattress sits on. So if it's one of those that doesn't move up and down then I don't see why not.

Yes, you just don't have as much above the mattress. I needed some thing to hold onto for support as I got in bed. It wa perfect for that. Hope this helped.

I use it with those covers - they are a little big, bit it doesn't much matter because the elastic of the fitted cover pulls it tight. Then on my changing table, the mattress just fits in tight, so it hold the cover on perfectly well. I don't think it's so big that it's a worry at all, it looks good and won't slip off.

The be has strips of wood to support the mattress. You will need a bunk board of piece of wood to hold that type of mattress.

Honestly, I imagine that it would not stay in place by itself, maybe with a tight mattress cover over it. I bought, in addition, a converter kit that has a strap which holds the twin mattresses together and that includes a piece which keeps this bridge in place. I didn't leave it to chance; I never used this alone. But I cannot imagine that this would stay in place by itself.

It will stabilize it, but you may have to adjust the height of the frame to take advantage of the mattress weight.

All it does is clamp underneath. You must have a lip of the bed to clamp onto and enough room to turn clamp to tighten underneath. They are very good and if installed properly will hold a bike securely.

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 do not see this slipping under an average bed frame...maybe if it is very tall frame. It is a very sturdy machine..more pilates style then bulking up with weights that can increase beyond the max potential of bands.

It goes around anything solid but when I tried it on a metal slotted bed frame it wasn't steady. Around a box spring or mattress should be fine. Plus if it's secured with the box spring then when the head part lifts up it won't fall. You will loose some height cause the bottom bar will be under box spring and then add mattress on top. But it should fit snug.

It should still fit on the frame-however it's not motionless as stated in the description. The mattress isn't as deep as our previous one making our expensive waterbed sheets not fit as well... We've also had to "burp" this one much more often than our previous mattress.

It works nicely for keeping the blankets off your feet. Its stable and doesn't move after it is placed between the mattress and the box spring. only issue I had with it was taking it out every day to make the bed!

There are about 4 posts that have an adjustable screw to make it flush with floor. Under the mattress there are wooden slats that are attached to a long fabric strip that runs the length of the frame. I'm 200+lbs and have my girlfriend over with out any problems. Frame is solid, no wobbling and we have each been known just to walk across the mattress and 100% stable.
