Re: A blast from the past... a Waterbed!

Yes we did, also in the early 80's....I actually had one while I was pregnant! At first I loved it, my husband did too, but after about a year, we fell out of love....I think we ended up keeping it for maybe another year, and then byebye. Hard to make the bed and hard to get out too.....They were so popular though....I remember it staying nice and cool though in the summer, which was nice!

I tried sleeping on one in the guest room of a friend's house in the 80's.....awful! I ended up on the sofa.

Re: A blast from the past... a Waterbed!

I only tried a waterbed once: it made me nauseous.

 

Here's my question: when did they all of a sudden go out of style?

Had mine for twelve years and loved it. Only shared it with my cat. So comfortable and warm. By the time I hit 40, it was becoming difficult to get in and out so I got a regular innerspring mattress.
