I haven't seen any in all the places I've been since the 80s.
I did have one for about 6 months.
It only kinda worked in terms of relaxation. It made noise and it was impossible to use your arm as a lever to get around. I think it was a failed experiment. They did spring leaks and they weighed a ton.
I sleep on a waterbed every night. I've had one since 1980.. not the same one of course. When I moved here from my apartment I tossed my queen waterbed mattress and my niece took the frame and I got a new Calf King waterbed. It's 100% waveless meaning the mattress is full of baffles so there is no sloshing around. My bed is best described as sleeping on wet sand. When you lay on it, you sink in, it conforms to your shape and then just stays like that. Cool in the summer, heated in the winter, would not have any other bed. One downside is sheet prices and availability. Sheets are almost impossible to find locally, and online they're anywhere from $89.95 to over $100.
And yes TG, I know what you're wondering, it's way better in a waterbed than in a regular bed.
There is the weight issue if the joists are old. It is spread over the area equally. But, it takes a lot of gallons of water to fill it up. There are some old houses out there that might not have been built to carry that much weight.
You can use wd-40 as starting fluid into a carburetor. This is on motors that don't have a computer-run fuel-injection system. (Back a ways) If the lawn mower won't start, you will eventually find that the vaporized gas isn't getting into the combustion chamber or some electrical connection isn't getting made for the spark. It's easy to see if it starts by spraying some ether or WD-40. If you hear it fire, then it's old gas or kinked gas line or bad fuel filters.

The issue would be figuring out how to make it so you can see through it through the top too, because obviously you can't really see through sheets.
