Service Policy
1. Introduction and Scope
This Service Policy constitutes a binding agreement between you and us for all activities conducted through our online store. By browsing, placing orders, or communicating with us through this website, you confirm your acceptance of these terms. We conduct our business exclusively online and do not operate any physical retail locations.
2. User Accounts and Website Responsibility
When registering an account on our website, you agree to provide true, accurate, and current information. You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials, passwords, and restricted access to your devices, as well as for all activities conducted under your account. We reserve the right to suspend accounts, cancel orders, or refuse services if deceptive, fraudulent, or unauthorized actions occur. While we continuously maintain platform security and performance, we do not guarantee that the website will always operate without interruptions or technical delays.
3. Product, Inventory, and Price Notification Rights
We endeavor to display product dimensions, textures, finishes, and colors with the greatest possible fidelity. However, actual visual presentation may differ depending on your display hardware and color calibrations. Product availability, specifications, and prices are subject to updates at any time without prior notice. In the event an item is displayed with an inaccurate price or incorrect stock level due to typographical or system calculation errors, we reserve the right to decline or cancel orders placed for such items, followed by prompt written notice and a full refund.
4. Orders and Payment
All orders submitted through our website represent an offer to purchase and become binding only upon our acceptance, which occurs when payment is confirmed and an official order confirmation is issued. We accept major card payment methods, including Visa and MasterCard, etc. By submitting payment, you confirm that you hold authorized access to the payment account used.

7. Returns, Exchanges, and Refunds
-
Eligibility & Exchange Period: The exchange period is 45 days (calculated from the date of receipt). To be eligible for an exchange, items must remain unused and unassembled, with the original packaging, instruction manuals, and all accessories intact.
-
Return & Exchange Assistance: For after-sales return requests, customers may provide the order number and relevant details, and we will assist based on the order status and applicable conditions.
-
Full Refund & Minimum Delivery Reimbursement: Within 1–5 days of your return request, we will issue a refund for the full cost of the item(s) and the standard (lowest-tier) shipping fee, using the original payment method. We will also provide information regarding further reasonable protections or support.
-
Applicable Standards for United States Orders: For orders fulfilled within the United States, we honor all commercial standards, express covenants, and consumer protection frameworks applicable to residential furniture, ensuring that all commitments made to you are fully upheld.
-
Complaint Handling Timeline: We commit to providing a formal response to any after-sales complaint within 45 days of receipt. This inquiry response timeline is strictly separate from the operational schedule required to complete physical repairs, part shipments, or item replacements.
-
2-Year Conformity & Limited Quality Warranty: We provide a 2-year quality conformity warranty commencing on the date of physical delivery, ensuring goods conform to agreed specifications. This 2-year warranty period is distinct from statutory limitations for bringing formal legal actions.
-
Voluntary 6-Year Commercial Structural Protection: In addition to the 2-year conformity period, we provide an independent, voluntary 6-year commercial structural protection specifically covering core internal wooden and metal framing elements. This extended structural protection also commences on the date of physical delivery.
-
Clear Separation of Rights and Timelines: The 2-year conformity warranty, formal claim limitation periods, and our voluntary 6-year structural protection operate under distinct frameworks, conditions, and separate time calculations.
-
Terms, Start Dates & Fixed Deductions: The period for returns and exchanges begins on the date of delivery. There are no additional charges for returns resulting from product defects. For returns initiated within 45 days for personal reasons, any fixed return shipping costs or associated processing fees will be clearly communicated prior to the authorization of the return.
-
Hidden Defects Protection: Recourse for latent or hidden defects operates under an independent 6-year period commencing from the actual date the hidden defect is discovered, remaining separate from delivery-based conformity rights.
-
Distinction Between Hidden Defects & Structural Coverage: Hidden defect remedies cover manufacturing flaws that could not reasonably be identified upon initial inspection (calculated from discovery), whereas our voluntary commercial structural coverage safeguards load-bearing integrity against standard failure (calculated from delivery).
-
Return Shipping Responsibilities: Return logistics costs for defective items or non-conforming deliveries will be borne entirely by us. If a return is initiated for personal preference or discretionary reasons, the customer is responsible for the return freight.

Oversized Furniture Return Freight & Label Deductions: For large indoor furniture items (such as sectional sofas, solid wood dining tables, large storage cabinets, etc.), the estimated return shipping cost typically ranges from $80.00 to $180.00 (depending on weight, dimensions, and shipping distance). If you choose to return an item for any reason using the prepaid return label included in the original packaging, a flat fee of $45.00 will be deducted from your refund.
-
45-Day Discretionary Window: Customers enjoy a continuous 45-day evaluation period from the date of physical receipt to submit return requests.
-
Application Steps: To initiate a return, contact our support team with your order number, delivery documentation, and clear photographs showing the product condition.
-
Return Logistics & Return Facility: Returned items must be sent to our designated logistics processing center. The specific return warehouse address will be provided along with a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) form once your return request has been approved. Please do not send items to our administrative office address. When packing the return, ensure that all internal protective padding is properly replaced and the package is securely sealed.
-
Damaged or Defective upon Arrival: If your furniture arrives damaged, defective, or with missing hardware, please notify us within 48 hours of delivery with photographic evidence. We will arrange a free replacement, component dispatch, or repair at zero cost to you.
-
Refund Channel: All refunds are issued exclusively through the original payment processor and bank card network (Visa, MasterCard, etc.) used during initial purchase.
-
Refund Clearance Window: Once the returned furniture is received and inspected at our logistics facility, funds will be released to your card account within 1 to 5 business days. Please contact us if your financial institution has not posted the funds beyond this timeline.

9. Product Usage Conditions and Limitations
Indoor Furniture Usage: Products categorized as indoor furniture are designed exclusively for interior, climate-controlled, dry residential living areas. Placement in areas with outdoor exposure, direct rainwater, persistent high humidity, or severe sun exposure voids standard wear and tear protections.
10. Dispute Resolution and Governing Principles
This Service Policy and all purchase transactions conducted through our website shall be interpreted and governed by the commercial standards and uniform codes of the United States. In the event of any disagreement, both parties agree to first engage in good-faith informal negotiations.

15. User Obligations
Users agree not to compromise website security, introduce destructive scripts, engage in automated data harvesting, or submit fraudulent payment information. You agree to utilize all furniture items strictly in accordance with their designated functional purpose.
16. Product Safety and Assembly
Furniture requires proper assembly and stable placement. You must strictly follow the assembly diagrams, structural instructions, and weight capacity limits provided in the packaging. For all upright furniture (such as tall chests, wardrobes, and bookshelves), wall-anchoring anti-tip safety kits must be installed immediately upon setup to prevent accidental tipping.

By using our online store or sending emails to us, you consent to receive electronic communications. You agree that all notices, disclosures, invoices, and purchase confirmations sent to you electronically satisfy any legal requirements that such communications be in writing.
18. Severability
If any provision of this Service Policy is determined to be invalid, unenforceable, or void by a court or arbitration forum of competent authority, such determination shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions, which shall remain in full force and effect.
19. Entire Agreement
