These are subject to certain exceptions. For detailed information please visit the Citizens Advice website www.citizensadvice.org.uk or call 0808 223 1133.
      Summary of your key legal rights

      The Consumer Rights Act 2015 says the Goods must be as described, fit for purpose and of satisfactory quality. During the expected lifespan of the Goods, your legal rights entitle you to the following:

      • Up to 30 days: if the Goods are faulty, then you can get a refund.
      • Up to 6 months: if the Goods cannot be repaired or replaced, then you’re entitled to a full refund, in most cases.
      • Up to 6 years: if the Goods do not last a reasonable length of time, you may be entitled to some money back.

      The information in this summary box summarises some of your key rights. It is not intended to replace the contract, which you should read carefully.

    2. Nothing in this contract affects your legal rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015. You may also have other rights in law.
    3. The suitability of any particular Goods may be dependent on the make and model of a particular appliance. Therefore, it is your responsibility to ensure that when supplying the details of the appliance (e.g., a model number or make) for the Goods that those details are correct. We will have no responsibility or liability as a result any such error by you.
    4. Any drawings, or images of the Goods contained on our Website are issued or published for the sole purpose of giving an approximate idea of the Goods described in them. The colour and packaging of the Goods may differ slightly to how they are shown on our Website.
    5. If your Goods are faulty, please contact us using the contact details at the top of this page.
    6. To the fullest extent allowed by applicable law, we shall not be liable for any defective or faulty Goods or Goods which otherwise do not comply with their description if:
      1. you make any further use of the Goods after giving notice in accordance with section 7.1.
      2. the Goods become defective or faulty because you failed to follow our or the manufacturer’s instructions as to the storage, commissioning, installation, use and maintenance of the Goods;
      3. anyone other than us alters or repairs the Goods;
      4. the Goods become defective or faulty because of fair wear and tear, wilful damage, negligence, or abnormal storage or working conditions; or
      5. the Goods differ from their description because of changes made to ensure they comply with applicable statutory or regulatory requirements.
  8. Limitation on our liability
    1. Except for any legal responsibility that we cannot exclude in law (such as for death or personal injury) or arising under applicable laws relating to the protection of your personal information, we are not legally responsible for any:
      1. losses that were not foreseeable to you and us when the contract was formed. By ‘foreseeable’ we mean that, at the time the contract was made, it was either clear that such loss or damage would occur, or you and we both knew that it might reasonably occur, as a result of something we did (or failed to do);
      2. losses that were not caused by any breach on our part;
      3. business losses (in that the loss relates to you: (a) using the Goods for the purposes of your trade, business, craft or profession; or (b) otherwise commercially exploiting the Goods); or
      4. losses to non-consumers. 
  9. Your right to cancel
    1. For some Goods bought online, you have a legal right to change your mind about the purchase and receive a refund of what you have paid for it, including the delivery costs. This is subject to some conditions, as set out below.
    2. If you change your mind about the Goods you must let us know no later than 14 days after you acquire or a third party (other than the delivery carrier) acquires physical possesion of the Goods. If the delivery of the Goods is split into several deliveries over different days, the 14 day period runs after you acquire or a third party (other than the delivery carrier) acquires physical possesion of the last Good from your order.
    3. To exercise the right to cancel, you must let us know of your decision to cancel this contract by clear statement. You can request a return by using our returns form (link here). You may also use the model cancellation form available below, but it is not obligatory.

    5. If you have received Goods:
      1. you need to send back the Goods, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your cancellation of this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the Goods before the period of 14 days has expired; 
      2. you will have to bear the direct cost of returning the Goods; and
      3. you are liable for any diminished value of the Goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the Goods.  
    6. We strongly recommend you get proof of postage when returning the Goods to us. If you do this, then you should keep a receipt or other evidence from the delivery service that proves the Goods have been sent and when they were sent. We may withhold the refund until we have received the Goods back from you or until you have provided us with evidence that you have sent the Goods back (whichever is earlier).
    7. Goods must be returned to us in a new and unused condition and, to the extent possible, in their original packaging. You are responsible for the Goods while they are in your possession.
  10. Effects of cancellation
    1. If you exercise your rights to cancel the contract under section 9, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivering the Goods to you (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
    2. We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than:
      1. 14 days after the day we received back from you any Goods supplied; or
      2. (if earlier) 14 days after the day you provide evidence that you have returned the Goods; or
      3. if there were no Goods supplied, 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to cancel this contract.
    3. We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of the reimbursement.
    4. We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the Goods back or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the Goods, whichever is the earliest.
    5. Your refund will be subject to the following deductions:
      1. if you chose a delivery option that is more expensive than the cost of standard delivery, we will only refund the cost of standard delivery; and
      2. if you handled the Goods in a way beyond what might reasonably be permitted in a shop and this resulted in a loss in value of the goods, we may make a deduction from the refund for such loss in value. For example, we may reduce a refund if the condition of the Goods is not “as new”, price tags have been removed, the packaging is damaged or accessories are missing. In some cases, because of the way you have treated the Goods, no refund may be due. We may advise on whether we are likely to reduce a refund.
    6. You cannot cancel an order for:
      1. Goods sealed for health protection or hygiene purposes, once these have been unsealed after you have received them;
      2. Goods that are made to your specifications or are clearly personalised;
      3. Goods which become mixed inseparably with other items after your delivery; and 
      4. any other Goods to which the legal right to change your mind about the purchase does not apply. 
    7. If the right to cancel does not apply because of one of the circumstances listed in section 10.6 or you have lost the right to cancel, you will not be entitled to a refund unless the Goods are faulty. See section 7 above.
