Once every 2 - 3 weeks usually... oops! More in the summer though, basically whenever I think they need a wash!
When we put our sheets and duvet cover in the tumble drier, they come out smelling like doritos! Anyone else get this or are we just really odd?0 -
Depends when they start smelling...Who made hogs and dogs and frogs?

I change bottom sheet and pillow cases every week, turn duvet over, so it does 2 wks. I always throw duvet back and open windows, to air bed out while I shower and get dressed.

Sheet gets changed every week - duvet cover and pillowcases every 2 weeks (occassionally more often).
But duvet and pillows plumped and flapped every morning and duvet turned down to let the mattress air.
Would have it done daily if someone else did it for me.:)I was going to take over the world but got distracted by something sparkly.......0 -

once a fortnight in the winter its enough, there is so much washing all the time it never ends so thats enough. Shower nearly every night also so sheets dont get to dirty.:footie:0

Once a week usually. Has been known to go a bit longer, but I am a clean person so I don't see a problem with leaving it 2 or so weeks if I really can't be bothered. however, normally once a week.0
