Our Contract
- Contract creation and electronic contracting
1.1 After placing an order, you will receive an email from us acknowledging that we have received your order. Please note that this does not mean that your order has been accepted or that we are guaranteeing supply. Your order constitutes an offer to us to buy an item or items from us (referred to as Goods or Products in these terms). All orders are subject to our acceptance, and we will confirm such acceptance by sending you an email confirming that the order has been processed (the order confirmation). When you place your order, your payment may be automatically charged; however, this will not be processed until the Contract is formed. The contract is formed by the sending (not the receipt) of the order confirmation, and these terms will not be affected by any typographical error on the part of the customer or by the failure to provide a valid e-mail address. If your order is not accepted, we will cancel it and refund any payment via the original payment method or by cheque, at our discretion.
1.2 The Contract will relate only to those Products whose order we have confirmed in the order confirmation. We will not be obliged to supply any other Products which may have been part of your order until such Products have been confirmed in a separate order Confirmation.
1.3 The language for the conclusion of the Contract is British English.
- Consumer rights
2.1 Your rights under The Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013 are listed at point 18 below.
2.2 No provision of these terms affects your statutory rights, and we recommend that you seek the advice of a solicitor or the Citizens’ Advice Bureau if you are unsure of what your rights are.
- Availability and delivery
3.1 All items are made to order unless stated otherwise.
3.2 The majority of orders are dispatched within 6 to 8 weeks. However, if an item is required by a specific date, please get in touch with our Customer Services Team for assistance. Our website shows current product availability and provides additional options and information regarding delivery timescales. Delivery must be arranged within 14 days of the goods being available for delivery. The seller retains the right to charge storage if the time period exceeds 14 days.
3.3 We will verify your payment information with your card issuer before your order is dispatched. Failure to provide correct billing information or correct card security information will delay your order. Please ensure the billing address provided is the address registered with your card issuer. The card security code from the back of your card is required for all orders; it is the group of 3 digits printed on the reverse of your card (the group of 4 numbers on the front of American Express cards). All orders are subject to satisfactory security checking, which may involve us obtaining further identification or a bank statement to verify the details provided.
3.4 Your order will be fulfilled by the delivery date set out in the order Confirmation or, if no delivery date is specified, then within a reasonable time of the date of the order Confirmation, unless there are exceptional circumstances.
3.5 Claims of damage must be notified in writing both to the carriers and the Company within 2 days of delivery, and the carrier’s delivery sheet should be noted with the damage found. Packaging must be retained for investigation. Claims cannot be accepted outside these time limits.
3.6 Claims for incomplete delivery must be made within 2 days of receipt. The carrier’s delivery sheet should be noted with disputed missing items. Claims cannot be accepted outside these time limits.
3.7 Claims for non-delivery must be made within 14 days of receipt of despatch confirmation.
3.8 Any claim made under 3.5, 3.6 or 3.7 may take up to 14 working days to investigate and resolve. Replacements or refunds will not be issued until a full investigation has been completed.
3.9 Someone must be available to receive delivery of the products. If no one is available, parcels may be returned to a delivery depot. Delivery may not be reattempted. Customers may be held liable for any costs of returning failed or refused delivery items to us.
- Risk and title
4.1 The Products will be at your risk from the time of delivery.
4.2 Ownership of the Products will only pass to you when we receive full payment of all sums due in respect of the Products, including delivery charges.
- Price and payment
5.1 The price of any Products will be as quoted on our site from time to time, except in cases of obvious error.
5.2 These prices include VAT but exclude delivery costs, which will be added to the total amount due as set out in our Delivery Guide.
5.3 Prices are liable to change at any time, but changes will not affect orders in respect of which we have already sent you an order Confirmation.
5.4 Our site contains a large number of products, and it is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the Products listed on our site may be incorrectly priced. We will normally verify prices as part of our despatch procedures so that, where a Product’s correct price is less than our stated price, we will charge the lower amount when despatching the Product to you. If a Product´s correct price is higher than the price stated on our site, we will, at our discretion, either contact you for instructions before dispatching the Product or reject your order and notify you of the rejection.
5.5 We are under no obligation to provide the Product to you at the incorrect (lower) price, even after we have sent you a Despatch Confirmation, if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakable and could have reasonably been recognised by you as a mis-pricing.
5.6 Payment for all Products must be by credit or debit card or a PayPal account. We accept payment with Visa, MasterCard, American Express and PayPal. Although we do not directly store your card details, you agree that our third-party payment providers, who are PCI DSS Level 1 compliant (PayPal and mypos), will store them with tokenised access in the event you request an exchange order requiring payment (for example, delivery to return the product to you). For return orders where new payment details have been provided for an exchange, these details will not be used. These details will not be used for any purpose other than to exchange orders requested directly by the account holder. Any changes to this consent agreement will be updated within these terms and conditions.
5.7 All orders are billed in Pounds Sterling.
5.8 All prices quoted on our site exclude delivery costs, and any Customs Tax or Import Duties over which we have no control and do not accept liability.
5.9 Deliveries made within the EU will be charged Value Added Tax (VAT) at the prevailing rate as applicable.
- Our refunds and returns policy
6.1 We are committed to supplying goods that exceed your expectations; a 2-year guarantee backs every item we sell. If, for any reason, you are not completely satisfied with your purchase, please return the complete product, undamaged and in an unused “as sold” condition, within 14 days (if possible, we would prefer you to return any sale items within 7 days) of the delivery date. We will gladly refund your full purchase price. All goods must be accompanied by a proof of purchase, e.g. your packing note. Please note that you will be responsible for the return shipping cost, and we are also unable to refund your original shipping cost. We will keep you informed of the progress of your return.
Made-to-Order Products
Products made to the customer’s specifications from available options, products we do not usually hold in stock, or products made to order by the manufacturer are not returnable. If you are unsure whether an item is a special order, please get in touch with us before making your purchase. Once unwrapped, Mattresses, bedding, cushions, cushion pads, throws, and other home textiles are non-returnable. We are unable to offer an exchange on custom orders.
This clause does not affect your rights under clause 18 to cancel a Contract.
6.2 When you return a Product to us:
We will process the refund due to you as soon as possible and, in any case, within 30 days of the day you have given notice of your intention to return the Products or the date we receive them, whichever is the sooner. In this case, we will refund the full price of the Product, including the cost of sending the item to you. However, you will be responsible for the cost of returning the item to us in every case.
We will process your refund as soon as possible upon receipt of the returned item. In this case, we will (provided that the Products are in an “as sold” condition) refund the full price of the Product and shall exclude the cost of sending the item to you. However, you will be responsible for the cost of returning the item to us in every case.
- Our liability
7.1 We warrant to you that any Product purchased from us through our site is of satisfactory quality.
7.2 Our liability for losses you suffer as a result of us breaking this agreement is strictly limited to the purchase price of the Product you purchased and any losses which are a foreseeable consequence of us breaking the agreement. Losses are foreseeable if you and we had contemplated them at the time we accepted your order.
7.3 This does not include or limit in any way our liability:
For fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; or
For any matter for which it would be illegal for us to exclude, or attempt to exclude, our liability.
7.4 We are not responsible for indirect losses which happen as a side effect of the main loss or damage and which are not foreseeable by you and us (such as loss of income or revenue, loss of business, loss of profits or contracts, loss of anticipated savings, loss of data, waste of management or office time) however arising and whether caused by tort (including negligence), breach of contract or otherwise, even if foreseeable.
- Import Duty
8.1 If you order Products from our site for delivery outside the UK, they may be subject to import duties and taxes which are levied when the delivery reaches the specified destination. You will be responsible for payment of any such import duties and taxes. Please note that we have no control over these charges and cannot predict their amount.

Applicable laws require that some of the information or communications we send to you be in writing. When using our site, you accept that communication with us will be mainly electronic. You must enter your email address correctly in your order. We will contact you by email or post notices on our website. For contractual purposes, you agree to this electronic means of communication, and you acknowledge that all contracts, notices, information and other communications that we provide to you electronically comply with any legal requirement that such communications be in writing. This condition does not affect your statutory rights.

Notice will be deemed received and properly served immediately when posted on our website, 24 hours after an e-mail is sent, or three days after the date of posting of any letter. In proving the service of any notice, it will be sufficient to prove, in the case of a letter, that such a letter was properly addressed, stamped and placed in the post and, in the case of an e-mail, that such e-mail was sent to the specified e-mail address of the addressee.

- Waiver
13.1 If we fail, at any time during the term of a Contract, to insist upon strict performance of any of your obligations under the Contract or any of these terms and conditions, or if we fail to exercise any of the rights or remedies to which we are entitled under the Contract, this shall not constitute a waiver of such rights or remedies and shall not relieve you from compliance with such obligations.
13.2 A waiver by us of any default shall not constitute a waiver of any subsequent default.
13.3 No waiver by us of any of these terms and conditions shall be effective unless it is expressly stated to be a waiver and is communicated to you in writing in accordance with clause 14 above.
- Severability
If any of these terms and Conditions or any provisions of a Contract are determined by any competent authority to be invalid, unlawful or unenforceable to any extent, such term, condition, or provision will to that extent be severed from the remaining terms, conditions and provisions which will continue to be valid to the fullest extent permitted by law.
