As a top retailer in the sauna space, we pride ourselves on creating and cultivating the smoothest, most enjoyable and personalised buying experience as possible for our customers. We are devoted to your absolute contentment and although we wish you to sweat badly, we love a “chill” and “cool” buying process.

With that being said, life is not always rosy and sometimes returns & refunds do occur. Luckily, we have built the following shipping & return policy to deal with those situations fast and efficiently.

EXTERNAL/VISIBLE DAMAGE

If you received your package and notice external damage that has occured during transport, then we advise you to make a note on the receipt and ask for the carrier’s driver signature. This will help sort out any possible problem later down the road.

CONCEALED DAMAGE

If once you’ve unpacked the boxes you notice damage on one or multiple parts of the sauna that was unnoticeable at the moment of delivery, then this is considered concealed damage and you should contact immediately so we can solve the issue.

Due to rough handling sometimes items get damaged within the boxes without the external parts being busted themselves. If any claim should be filed then please make sure to keep all original packaging and damaged items. It is to note that all concealed damage claims must be filed within 5 business days of delivery.

HOW TO RECEIVE YOUR SHIPMENT

1. First things first, you should always inspect all boxes properly before signing the delivery papers. Carefully analyze to see if any of the box is crushed, dented, perforated or scratched if they are please make sure to add a specific note about it when you sign the Bill of Laden. Be very precise as to the type and position where the damage occured.

2. As mentioned previously, internal damaged caused by rough handling or during transportation can happen. If you suspect that is the case, you can always ask the driver to wait with you while you open the boxes and search for damage. If the driver refuses make sure to add a not on the bill of Laden noting a “possible hidden damage”. You shall open the boxes as soon as possible and never 5 days after delivery as no claim can be claimed after that period.

SHIPMENT REFUSAL & CARRIER FEES

If you decide not to accept the delivery because of damage it is best to call us directly before refusing the shipment.

All of our delivery include liftgate service and notification before arrival. If by any chance, the carrier haven’t been able to contact you to set an appointment for delivery storage fees might be considered by the carrier.
