Wine Cooler Refund, Returns and Cancellation Policy
We ask that you take care when ordering your wine fridge that the size and dimensions will fit the space you've allotted for your wine cooler.
We also ask that you inspect the wine cooler on delivery and check the outside casing, inside of the wine cooler and door before the delivery men leave the premises and contact us immediately if you're unhappy with the condition of the wine cooler.
UNWANTED ITEMS:
If you've requested an item and it does not fit your allocated space or there is some unexpected difference in the product please contact us within 14 days of purchase to arrange a solution, do not turn on, install or use the wine cooler during this time and we will arrange for a return. If this item is a bespoke item where a modification has been requested (door reversal) or the item is manufactured to order, we can not accept returns or cancellations for any other reason than the wine fridge being faulty.
All unwanted returns must include:
Product(s) returned in original condition.
Original packaging.
All Included Accessories & Materials.
We can not accept a return as an unwanted if it has been installed, been turned on or been used. If the item is not working, then the item is classed as a damaged or faulty wine fridge.
If the item is unwanted or part of an exchange for a different wine fridge, we will work with you to find a suitable solution but we will levy the costs of the goods (up to 50% of the product value as a restocking fee) from the refund and return shipping costs are also chargeable.
Restocking fees apply to exchanges (changing one wine fridge for another) and returns.
DAMAGED OR FAULTY WINE COOLER:
We ask that you check your wine cooler on delivery and if you notice any damage report this as soon as possible, preferably while the delivery team are still on the premises.
If you miss the damage on delivery then report any damage to us within 48 hours so we can process the claim with the courier directly.
If you fail to report the damage to us within the 48 hour period, a successful claim is not guaranteed but we will always look for a suitable solution.
If your product arrives incomplete or missing some parts, we will opt to send out the missing parts and a technician to fit them.
Should your wine cooler develop a fault within the first 30 days, you are eligible to a full refund or replacement or free repair depending on what the situation warrants, this decision will be taken by CoolerSomm.
Outside of the standard 30 day returns period the manufacturer has the option to repair or replace the item, in line with the Consumer Rights Act and Sale of Goods Act. It is up to them as to which option they choose and we will support the customer through the process.
All our wine fridges come with a minimum two years warranty.
All wine fridges are designed to be used for the storage of wine and operate optimally with wine bottles inside. Wine fridges are not designed to store food, cheese, olive oil or non glass bottles and if left to run less than half full or empty will operate sub-optimally, with additional noise and have the potential to develop faults. If the customer operates the wine fridge outside of its proper usage they will invalidate the terms of the warranty.
Wine fridges delivered or moved to an addresses outside of the UK and Ireland are only covered by a parts warranty only and can not be returned.
RETURN SHIPPING COSTS:
If you wish to return your wine cooler, due to the size and weight of these items, return shipping costs will be charged. We can arrange the shipping for you using our logistics partners but because of the size and weight of many of our wine coolers this cost can be high. Return shipping costs will range from £75+VAT to £185+VAT - this is dependent on the size and location of the collection.
If you want to send your goods back to us using your own courier that's fine and we recommend using a 2 man shipping service due to the fragile nature of wine coolers. Please contact us before doing this so we can arrange the wine cooler is shipped to the right address.
CANCELLATIONS:
Depending on where the order is in the delivery process it may be possible to cancel with no charge with a minimum of two working days notice before shipment date. If you cancel while your wine cooler is in active shipment then you will be subject to a delivery fee back to our suppliers depot of between £75+VAT to £185+VAT. If the shipment is already in process a restocking fee of 20% will also be levied.
If a wine fridge or wine wall is purchased where a bespoke alternation like a door reversal has been requested the order can not be cancelled once the reversal is done. If the wine fridge or wine wall is manufactured to order it can not be cancelled once the manufacturing process begins.
If you want to cancel it is best to do so as soon as possible by email - returns@coolersomm.com or use the chat option on this page.
