Returns and refunds

We're committed to selling high-quality products we hope you'll enjoy using but we also know that, for one reason or another, there may be a time when you need to exchange or return something you've bought. Please make sure that you check your items carefully before they are used or installed. We also recommend that you keep your receipt or order number, which can be found on your order confirmation or on the delivery packaging, as you might need it as proof of purchase in the event of any after-sales queries

If I change my mind...


Within 30 days

  • Most things we sell are covered by our 30-day money-back guarantee. Just return them to any store, unused, in their original undamaged packaging, in a saleable condition, along with the receipt* and we'll give you a refund.
  • If you don't have a receipt, as long as you have a proof of purchase* we'll exchange the item or give you a refund with vouchers.
  • If you'd like to return something we've delivered, just call us on 0845 640 0800 and we'll collect it for free. Your order number will count as your receipt.
  • We're sorry but some items like earrings, foot spas and dental products can't be exchanged or refunded for hygiene and safety reasons, unless they're faulty.
  • To protect your personal security, we are also unable to accept returns on some non-faulty imaging and recording products such as MP3 players and digital cameras.
  • If a product is excluded from our 30-day money-back guarantee, it is clearly marked by a † next to the product name in the catalogue and on this website.
  • Product installation services already commenced are excluded from the 30-day money-back
    guarantee.
  • Our 30-day money-back guarantee does not affect your statutory rights

If there's a fault with the product...


We've made it easier!

  • If you bring it back to us within 30 days with your proof of purchase*, we'll give you a
    replacement or a refund.
  • If you've had the product for up to 1 year, we'll repair the product or, if that's not possible, give you a replacement or, if that's not possible, a refund.
  • If you had the product delivered, just call us on 0845 640 0800.
  • Please note that all large kitchen appliances are excluded from our 30 day guarantee, but if your item develops a fault within 30 days we will send an engineer to assist you. If faulty and if it cannot be repaired we will arrange a replacement free of charge or you can opt for a refund.
  • This does not affect your statutory rights.

* If you had your item delivered, your order number which can be found on your order acknowledgement or delivery packaging counts as your receipt/proof of purchase.
