Complaints and guarantee

Guarantee general products

Our products have a 2-year warranty*. The guarantee period commences on the day of delivery. Any complaints shall be made as soon as possible after the receipt of the goods. Any defects emerging at a later date, i.e. during the warranty period, shall be reported immediately after their discovery. Complete information about the damage, including evidence, must be collected and presented to the Seller by the Buyer within 7 days of reporting the issue.

To claim the warranty the Buyer is obligated to show the sales document.

Customers can lodge complaints about their products and orders. These can be addressed by contacting the seller's customer support. Alternatively, customers can create complaint tickets using the My Orders function, located in the My Account section of the website.

Guarantee of hot tubs and bathtubs applies only if the product was mounted and installed by a certified specialist.

The following claims are excluded from the guarantee

- All products offered by us are for non-commercial use. Complaints regarding goods used for commercial purposes may be refused by the manufacturer if the defects are caused by intensive use.

- In addition, the colors shown in the photos may differ slightly from the actual color due to display of different electronic devices. We do our best to present the products on our website as realistically as possible. The dimensions of certain products may also be slightly different from those on our homepage. The error range is +/- 5 cm.

- Any damage resulting from wear and tear, aging, failure to follow the instructions for use and installation, and improper handling of the product, as well as minor damage, are excluded from the guarantee. After the guarantee period, the Seller can offer replacement parts for a discounted price. Minor damage are defects that are not obvious to the naked eye and in diffused light conditions from a distance of 3 meters perpendicular to the point of damage. In case of minor damage claims against the Seller are invalid.

The guarantee expires if the goods have been processed or altered despite recognizable defects. In guarantee cases, the decision lies with the Seller, whether the damaged or defective part is replaced free of charge or whether a partial refund / price reduction is granted. The Seller should find an appropriate solution which is reasonable for both parties.

- The Seller is not liable for damage caused by mistakes / actions of third parties, as well as for an unjustified refusal to accept the goods. In such a situation, the costs associated with the return and re-delivery of the goods are borne by the Buyer.

All additional logistics services, apart from the method of payment (home delivery, assembly etc.) are excluded from the refund. In the case of technical products or built-in appliances, the Buyer must identify the defective part themselves at their own expense or ask a qualified technician to remove the part and send it to the Seller.

The costs related to the diagnosis of the defect and the replacement of parts shall be covered by the customer. Warranty is a parts only warranty unless otherwise stated. Any installation costs to correct any issues will not be covered by the seller. For warranty claims or damage reports, we will require photographic or electronic media evidence of the damage or proof to confirm the report of issues.

• Electric motor in electrically operated beds

Excluded from the guarantee are mattress covers and toppers. Excluded from the guarantee are also defects that have arisen due to improper use.  After delivery, cuts, cracks, nicks, scratches and dirt caused by the Customer are not going to be regarded as a valid claim and are excluded from the guarantee. The guarantee therefore does not cover damage caused by incorrect installation, handling or care. This guarantee does not cover incidental or consequential damage.

Zippers, handles and loops on the covers are also excluded from the guarantee. The guarantee is only valid for private and home use. Mold growth is excluded from the guarantee.

The frame should have at least 26 bars for cold foam, pocket spring and latex mattresses. The Customer must send the mattress back to our warehouse at their expense for the assessment of our experts.
