I think, like brk mentioned, the cost of sheets is not terribly high and neither is the burden of washing them. For me to be interested in a service like this it would need to offer some combination of the following: - Cheaper than buying new sheets (offering expensive sheets at much less than their retail cost per month would be a nice selling point) - Someone to put them on my bed for me (honestly I don't mind doing laundry, but I hate making my bed. go figure) - Free upgrade to more pillow cases. I sleep with 8 king-sized pillows and I'm not ashamed to admit it. - A selectable scent option. If I could get sheets guaranteed to smell like fresh coffee for the week until I get new ones, I'd be seriously interested. - More colors and patterns. White sheets feel like a hotel, I'd definitely want to mix it up.

You might want to also consider adding in fresh pillows as an add-on, as really nice pillows can be costly and having the pillows themselves be constantly washed and fluffed would be nice.

Cool idea though, cheers.




Holy moly...great thoughts! Thanks for the feedback jgj.

Most people I've talked to about this in the past few hours have more than two pillows. Turns out I'm the only sucker with not enough pillows :).
