After you place an order, you will receive an email from us acknowledging that we have received your order and notifying you if we have accepted your order (Order Confirmation).

When you place an order for a product subscription on our Website, you are offering to purchase that product from us at regular intervals until you cancel.

Please take the time to read and check your order at each stage of the order process.

We reserve the right to not accept or cancel any order from you (including subscriptions) notwithstanding that you had paid (in whole or in part) for the order including, without limitation, where stock is not available, there has been an error in the advertised price or product/service description or if we believe (in our reasonable opinion) that the applicable order has been placed for commercial purposes, fraudulently or otherwise in breach of these Terms and Conditions of Sale. In the event that payment has been made and your order is not accepted by us and/or cancelled by us, we will refund to you the amount paid to us in full subject to anything to the contrary set out elsewhere in these Terms and Conditions.

If we reject, limit, or otherwise modify your order, we will attempt to notify you using the email address you provide to us.

For Appliances Purchased through our website and Spare parts and accessories

If any products are damaged in transit to you, you must contact us on phone 1300 650 590 within 24 hours of delivery or such other timeframe as is reasonable in the circumstances. Once the damage has been notified to, and verified by us your return will be processed. The product must be returned, complete with its original packaging, product literature, etc.

Nothing in this Returns Policy is intended to limit your rights under the Australian Consumer Law set out in Schedule 2 to the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth).

If we have shipped the wrong product or the wrong quantity of products to you or you wish to return a product you have ordered for any other reason, you must contact us by phone on 1300 650 590 within 7 calendar days of delivery.

Any product returns must be returned in original unused condition, complete with its original packaging, product literature (if any), etc.

Where a product has been returned because you have changed your mind or ordered the wrong item you are responsible for the return shipping costs.

1. Shipping

Where delivery is available in your area and you request delivery, you will need to contact us to book a time for delivery. Generally, we ship products via our chosen carrier who may contact you directly regarding your delivery. We cannot deliver to a Post Office Box or APO/FPO addresses. If you order large or bulky items such as home appliances, you must provide a delivery address where someone will be available to sign for the receipt of your products.

Display, or clearance products must be delivered within 7 days of order placement.

Delivery time and price may vary depending on your location, the product that you have purchased, available shipping options, and shipping options selected by you. If you order large or bulky items, we will contact you to arrange delivery and with an estimated delivery date.

Customers should carefully consider the accessibility of their space when making their purchase.

The products we sell are often big and heavy things to lift, so there will be certain occasions when we may be unable to get a product into your property. Lots of steps, narrow corridors, radiators and restricted parking are all things that may hinder our ability to deliver. In these situations, we may be able to offer delivery to the nearest point possible e.g. your garage, so you can make arrangements to get the product in. If not, we will attempt another delivery date or give you a full refund. It is your responsibility to verify fit and we will not take responsibility for products that will, upon arrival, not fit through a door, hallway, etc. If a product needs to be exchanged or returned due to a fit issue, there will be a charge to ship the product back to us and to restock it that we will advise you of once you call us on 1300 650 590.

We will use reasonable commercial endeavours to deliver product/s on or about the delivery date agreed between us (Delivery Date). If we are unable to deliver the product/s by the Delivery Date (by reason of inventory shortage, transportation difficulties or otherwise), we will use reasonable commercial endeavours to do so within a reasonable period after the Delivery Date.

Delivery will be to the Australian address specified in your order. For spare parts and accessories orders only, if no one is present to receive the product, it will be left at your address.

Delivery of an order shall be completed and all risk in the products (including risk of loss and/or damage to the products) shall pass to you when they are delivered to the address you gave us.

We are not liable for any delay or failure to deliver products if the delay or failure is caused by circumstances beyond our control. If we are unable to meet the estimated delivery date because of an event outside our control, we will contact you with a revised estimated delivery date.

You agree that any delivery confirmation provided by the carrier is deemed sufficient proof of delivery to you, even without a signature.

2. Additional Services

The charges (if any) for additional services are clearly laid out throughout the order process and will be displayed on the checkout page when you place your order.

If we are replacing your old appliance, please disconnect, defrost if necessary and ensure all water, laundry and other personal items are removed from the appliance before we arrive.

Connection

Connection is available on freestanding and integrated refrigerators, dishwashers and laundry products.

Connection means unboxing a product and removing product packaging, placing the product in the desired location and connecting the product to an existing 10 amp power plug and (if applicable) connecting hoses to existing taps and drainage, levelling and balancing the product.

We cannot modify cabinetry or benchtops or make changes to electrical, plumbing or gas connections.
