Your Life Will Be Brighter With Printed Waterbed Sheets!

Different Types And Sizes Of Waterbeds And Bedding!

There are several different types of waterbeds available on the market today. The two major different styles are the hardside waterbed and the softside waterbed. The hardside waterbed is what most of us know as a waterbed. It’s a water filled mattress that is fitted inside a wood frame raised on a wood platform. The sizes of these beds are the California King  (72 inches by 84 inches), the California Queen (60 inches by 84 inches), and the super single size (48 inches by 84 inches). Printed waterbed sheet sets and the other sizes are now available in more color and textures than ever before.

Softside Waterbeds - The New Design!

The softside waterbed looks more like a regular bed with a mattress. The water filled mattress is surrounded by a frame of thick foam and is then zippered inside of fabric. The mattress sits on a platform, which looks like the waterbed mattress is sitting on a box spring, therefore making it look more like a conventional bed. The depth of the water chamber varies from deep fill (7 inches), mid fill (6 inches), and shallow fill (4.5 inches). These beds are sized to the traditional mattress sizes so these waterbeds can use standard bed sheets in the appropriate size.

Improved Technology Changes Everything - Even Waterbeds!

With newer materials and technology, waterbeds have evolved from their humble beginnings. With more people suffering from aching joints, back problems, allergies, or long-term illness; waterbeds will continue to grow in popularity. With this foreseen demand, manufacturers are now offering better fitting bed sheets and comforters in a wider variety of prints and fabrics than ever before.
