1. About this Returns Policy

The terms and conditions set out in this "Returns Policy" apply to all goods purchased from Complex Distribution T/A Essential Home Store in the UK, whether you buy through our website at www.essentialhomestore.co.uk, over the phone or otherwise.
Together with the Terms of Sale this Returns Policy forms part of a legally binding contract between us “the seller” and you “ the buyer” which you accept whenever you buy goods from www.essentialhomestore.co.uk online.  All of the terms and conditions in the Terms of Sale will apply equally to this Returns Policy, including any defined terms. In the event of a conflict between the Terms of Sale and this Returns Policy, the Terms of Sale will apply.

2. Your right to cancel “made to order” goods
2.1 Goods that are ordered to your specification, for example made to order sofas, worktops and personalised products, cannot be cancelled or returned once the order is accepted. In this case, after we have sent you our Delivery Advice email, you will have entered into a binding contract to buy the goods, and as the goods are being made to your specification, you will not be able to cancel that contract. Once the goods have been delivered you can only return them if they are not of satisfactory quality or reasonably fit for the purpose and we cannot remedy the fault to your reasonable satisfaction.

3. Your right to cancel "off the shelf" goods
3.1 Where you place an order through www.essentialhomestore.co.uk  standard stock products, which are not made to your specification, you can cancel your order at any time prior to the goods being delivered to you.
3.2 Following receipt of the goods, you can cancel your contract by notifying us (as set out in section 4 below) within seven (7) days of the date on which the goods were delivered. This means that if you change your mind about the goods or for any other reason you decide you do not want to keep the goods; you can notify us of your decision to cancel the contract, and then return the goods to us for a refund.  If your order comprises more than one item, you can cancel and return any of the items individually or in combination.
3.3 Nothing within this Returns Policy or the Terms of Sale affects your rights under law, and in particular you will always be entitled to return goods to us for a full refund if they were misdescribed, or are not of satisfactory quality or reasonably fit for their purpose and we cannot remedy the fault to your reasonable satisfaction.
