Samples Return/Exchange

Some manufacturers do not accept sample returns. Please contact us to confirm whether the sample you are interested in is returnable.

If the sample is not returnable, it can still be exchanged and credited for any rug priced at $299 or more. Please note that the return freight cost for the sample is the customer's responsibility.

Warranty

Please note, that the majority of our manufacturers offer a one-year (limited) warranty on their indoor rugs and 6 months on their outdoor rugs.

The warranty is valid for one year from the date of purchase. It covers manufacturing defects or issues that may arise during this time.

The warranty usually covers defects in materials and workmanship. This means that if the rug has a defect that is the result of how it was made or the materials used, the manufacturer will repair or replace the rug.

Exclusions: Please note, that normal wear and tear, damage caused by misuse or accidents, or damage from improper care and cleaning may not be covered.

Unfortunately, the manufacturers will not accept any claim warrant after one year for the indoor rugs and after 6 months for the outdoor rugs.

Warranty claims cannot be accepted if a repair is made by a third party without the authorization of the manufacturer.
