It lives in a soft (cordouroy over foam) frame I built myself. I'd never go back to a regular mattress; the waterbed is just too comfortable. I didn't use a heater for the first couple of years. Instead, I covered the bed with a piece of 1-inch foam. The only problem was that it tended to shift or wrinkle. I do recommend you buy a heater; the sensation on a cold winter night is delicious. Now if only I could keep the cats from occasionally poking holes... Alan Silverstein
