The Boyd 145 Essex is a softside plush EuroTop waterbed that brings fluid suspension support into a mattress that looks and fits like a conventional bed. Its foam-filled cylinders contour to your body and let you adjust firmness on each side, so it suits couples who want personalized support and anyone who likes the cradling feel of flotation sleep.
Best for couples who want adjustable, contouring flotation support with a plush EuroTop feel.

| Brand | BOYD FLOTATION |
|---|---|
| Construction | Softside plush EuroTop waterbed with foam-filled cylinders, a 6" preassembled support tray for edge support, and a Tri-Zone SMT foam comfort layer (3" high-resilience anti-microbial foam) reinforcing the center third. |
A filled waterbed spreads its weight across the whole frame and deck, so a normal residential floor handles it fine. If you're on an upper floor or unsure, call us and we'll talk it through.
Softside beds set up much like a regular mattress; hardside beds fill inside the frame. We include setup guidance and our team walks you through fill, heat, and conditioning — we do it every week.
Yes — a heater keeps the bed at a comfortable temperature and conditioner protects the vinyl and keeps the water clear. See “Complete your system” below for the matched parts.
Custom / build-to-order — we'll quote it for you.
