The third unique design feature of waterbed sheets is called the Pole sheet.��Pole sheets are constructed with a casing in each of the corner pockets of the bottom sheet.��Once the pole is slipped through the casing, it will grab the corner of the wood frame to hold the sheet in place until you are ready to take the sheets off of the waterbed mattress.��Pole sheets do not come in every fabric, but make keeping your sheets on the bed very easy.
The fourth unique design feature of waterbeds is the fitted sheet has flaps that allow you to tuck in the sheet and keep it where you want it.
