A waterbed mattress can be so restful. However, choosing the wrong mattress can really turn your dream sleep into a nightmare. This specialty sleep buyer's guide to waterbed mattresses will help you avoid some common waterbed problems. To make your waterbed mattress experience a happy one, you should:
1. Research the different waterbed brands to be sure you purchase a durable mattress. Talking to other waterbed owners is the best way to find out which beds work best. If you don't know anyone who owns a waterbed, check out epinions.com or Consumer Reports magazine for waterbed reviews.
2. Always use the proper base for your waterbed. A base that doesn't provide adequate support could break beneath the weight of your waterbed.
3. Never use a waterbed in a room that is not structurally sound. Your waterbed could literally fall through the floor.
