Can You Put a Regular Mattress in a Waterbed?

The charm of the water mattress is lost and you are left with a pedestal. Transforming this pedestal into a more traditional bed is possible with a few options to consider. Does this Spark an idea?

  1. Commercial

    • Certain sizes of water bed pedestals will fit mattresses off a showroom floor. The standard double mattress fits a super-single platform, and a California king mattress fits a king-size platform.

    Custom

    • Custom sized mattresses are available to order at outlets around the country. Measure the inside of the platform opening to give correct sizing information.

    Feather or Foam

    • Using heavy cotton material, you can sew a mattress for your pedestal. Treated feathers or foam rubber balls are used to stuff homemade mattresses.

    Sponge

    • Industrial grade sponge can be ordered to size to create a mattress. The sponge is usually covered with heavy plastic or thick cotton material.

    Inflatable

    • Inflatable mattresses are available at all sporting goods stores in various sizes. They can be blown up to fit the opening in the pedestal.
