If you receive an order and find you have changed your mind or the item just isn’t right for you, don’t worry. Items delivered within the UK can be returned for a refund within 28 days from the date of purchase (subject to exclusions outlined below).
Please return your item(s) unused and in their original condition and packaging (with labels intact) – just as you received it. We provide a pre-paid peel off returns DPD or Royal Mail label with the majority of parcels that are 10kg or less, nor exceed dimensions of 50 cm x 50 cm x 60cm.

All items are inspected upon arrival at our warehouse and refunds are then made to the original method of payment and can take up to 10 working days to show on your account.
If there’s a problem with an item you have received or if you believe a product is faulty, please contact our Customer Service team so we can assist you. We will refund standard postage costs up to the value of £10 if a product is deemed damaged, defective, or not as described.
Unfortunately, we do not offer exchanges. All returned items will be refunded once they've been received by our warehouse. Need a different product? Simply place a new order.
Initial shipping costs incurred are non-refundable.
