Returns & Refunds - FAQs

If an item is faulty and you purchased it more than 30 days ago, it is our aim to get the problem put right as quickly as possible. We may offer a repair or replacement of the item, or offer a price reduction or refund. The Consumer Rights Act 2015 says goods must be as described, fit for purpose and of satisfactory quality during the expected life of the product.

If the product is to be repaired, and the manufacturer has provided a helpline, repair service or warranty, please contact the manufacturer direct in the first instance. If you require assistance with locating the manufacturer or their contact details, please contact us.

If there is no such service or warranty with the product, in most instances we will either offer a repair or where this is not possible, we will replace the item with the same or an equivalent model.
