They are! Waterbeds are comfortable, soothing and therapeutic, and can help with back  and muscle pain by balancing pressure across one's body. This can also help prevent bedsores. Due to their design they can also double up as a heater during winter, which can be handy.

However, when making a purchase one should always be aware of the possible disadvantages and risks. Waterbeds are not unobtainably expensive, but they may be several times higher in cost compared to regular beds of similar size and quality. The advantage of coming with heating also potentially adds to this, as they can consume up to 300W of power which adds up in cost over time. Other associated risks involve the potential for leaks, the increased weight with water added, and the need for more maintenance.

Overall, it is up to each individual what type of bed suits them most. While most people nowadays prefer the simplicity of regular beds, waterbeds are still being produced, sold and used by people who enjoy the novelty and comfort.
