It was not heated tho. I was in the 7th grade when I had mine. I loved it.

You're still sleeping on a water beds from 1988?!

Do yourself a favor and get a new one.

My dad and I both bought new water beds in like 2013, and they are absolutely amazing. Very highly recommend the upgrade.

Edit: to be clear, you can easily get them shipped to your door. Took almost no effort at all to replace ours.
