Abstract:
The invention of the present application relates to waterbeds (10). Waterbeds (10) usually have side rails (21) and often have a foot board (20) and/or head board (22). Together these form an enclosure (16) for containing the water-filled mattress (25). Padded rails (21) above the top edge (24) of the frame (16) prevent the hard wood edge from discomforting the occupants. Applicants provide a fabric cover (32) that slips over the padded rails (21) before they are installed. The fabric cover (32) has elastic bands (36) that hold the cover (32) snug to the padded rail (21) and which bands (36) jam between the top edge (24) of the frame (16) and the inside surface of the padded rail (21) when the padded rails (21) are installed.
