California King 72 x 84 Semi Waveless Waterbed Mattress by Classic Mattress, Premium Clear Bottle

I've had this waterbed mattress for about two months and so far it's pretty good. We've always had a "Free-flow" for over 45yrs. I decided to try something different, so I went with a semi-waveless. It was pretty easy to install,actually it seemed a little easier than other waterbed mattresses we've had. It has 2 filling chambers, one on each side of the mattress, I'm not sure why there's 2 instead of the usual 1. It has a fibrous mat inside for the stableness of the water to the water make move less and it does. Maybe it's the fibrous bladder in it, butt it feels firmer to me than the other waterbed mattresses we've had. It seems to be a good quality mattress. It is a little bit more expensive than the other mattresses I've had but I guess with it having the stabilizer in it made it more expensive then a "free-flow". It seems to be a good value for the quality and I got it in the time frame that they said it would come. It is a little heavier than one's We've had so it took 2 people to place it in my frame but it rolled out easy. It is definitely "semi-waveless as it stops moving within a few seconds of when you get into it and definitely is not as moving when you turn over like the 'free-flow". I would say it's just about like it's described.

Still sleeping on this one 9 years later. I'm still loving my waterbed. Thankfully I paid no attention to the so-called study paid for by mattress giants. The key is proper filling. If you over-fill or under-fill, yes - it can irritate you back. For me, at 6'6" tall with extra vertebrae, nothing makes my back feel better. I like the functionality of the 2 fill ports. Very convenient. ...and superior quality to mattresses I have had in the past.

No smell. Really pliable and soft. Well made. The seams and water inlet are manufactured extremely well.

Glad to be back on a waterbed!!! This one is a little wavier than our previous model, but overall we are very, very satisfied. Highly recommend this product!

Made well, strong.
