Placing your Order

When placing your order, we will take you through your selected products and services in detail, giving you all the information required, including operation, maintenance and care information.

Details of all items, including fabrics, colours, size and fit will be thoroughly checked, verified and you will be asked for a signature to confirm the order. In giving this confirmation you agree that the order and its contents are correct and you are happy with your product. 30% cancellation or amendment fee applies.

Although we understand the difficulties in checking access routes (door sizes, corridors, etc.) for installation of furniture, it is always your final responsibility to ensure that your furniture will fit into your home. We cannot be held responsible for furniture which has to be returned because it doesn’t fit. Our standard cancellation fees would apply in this situation.

If your order is placed in-store, once completed, your order forms part of a legally binding contract, which cannot be cancelled without charge which is 30% of the order value.

Calls may be recorded for training and monitoring purposes, these are deleted after 180 days.

All lead times are approximate, slight delays are not a reason for refund/compensation. Lead times are extended during the Christmas period, Bank holidays, factory shutdowns and seasonal variances.

We only deliver to Mainland UK addresses. If you require delivery outside of the UK we can deliver to the nearest port/UK mainland postcode, after this point it is the customer’s sole responsibility to ship the furniture to the final destination.

 

48 Hour Cooling Off Period

As a gesture of goodwill, HSL offers all in-store customers a 48 Hour Cooling Off period from the date your order is placed (excluding Express Delivery products) during which time an order may be cancelled or amended without a cancellation fee, and any monies paid will be fully refunded.

All products are manufactured to order, cancellation or amendment after 48 hours will incur a charge, detailed below in the “Cancellation” section, to cover costs incurred by HSL for processing, manufacturing and/or transportation.

On our Express Delivery products there is a cancellation fee of £100 or 10% whichever is greater for any Express Delivery product that is ready to be dispatched, but not yet in a customer’s home.

After a period of time we reserve the right to amend the cancellation charge depending on circumstances.

 

Prices

All prices shown are in sterling. Due to circumstances beyond our control, prices may have to be altered up or down, including any alterations to the rate of Value Added Tax.

To qualify you MUST complete and sign the Eligibility Declaration on the rear of the order form supplied with this HSL catalogue (or downloaded from the HSL website). Please note there are penalties for making false declarations; if you are in any doubt as to whether you are eligible to receive goods or services zero-rated for VAT, you should consult H. M. Revenue & Customs Notice 701/7 VAT Reliefs for Disabled People or contact the VAT National Advice Service on 0300 123 1073 before signing the declaration.

Payment

Payment methods include cash (in-store only and Home Visit), cheque, debit or credit card (Visa, MasterCard, American Express or Switch/Maestro). Payments can also be made electronically by bank transfer; details will be provided on request. We cannot accept cheques on Express Delivery products.

Payment in full is required at the point of sale for all Express Delivery items, 7-14 day delivery service products and clearance items.

For all other products, a minimum deposit of 30% or £100 (whichever is the greater), is required. The full balance should be made within 3 weeks of placing your order, regardless of lead time.

If you are paying in-store by card, and where a partial payment is made as a deposit, a preauthorised final payment will be requested from your card so that the full outstanding balance can be automatically charged to your card when your goods have been manufactured and are awaiting delivery. Where this is not possible we will contact you to take payment of your outstanding balance.

All orders must be paid in full within 3 weeks and goods will remain the property of HSL until such a time as payment has been made in full.

Please allow for longer delivery times during Easter, Spring Bank and Christmas periods due to factory holidays.

On the day of delivery, it is your responsibility to ensure that the delivery team can gain easy access to the room that the furniture is going into and that the area you want the furniture placed in is cleared.

We are unable to give you a specific time slot for your delivery. We will however advise you as to whether it is morning or afternoon delivery.

On a 2-man delivery service, the delivery team will unpack your furniture, install it in the room of your choice and, if you wish, will remove all packing materials from your home and recycle wherever possible.

 

Express Delivery

Any orders for Northern Ireland, Isles of Scotland and Isle of Wight fall outside of the express delivery period. Please ask in store for details.

Information Before You Order

 Whether you shop with us online, by phone, through a home visit or in one of our stores, we'll make sure you have everything you need to make an informed decision before your order is confirmed.

 Before your order is placed, we will provide you with a clear description of the products you're ordering; the total price including delivery charges and VAT (where applicable); details of how and when your order will be delivered; information about your cancellation rights, or a clear explanation if they don't apply to your order; how to contact us if you have any questions or concerns; and details of our complaints process.

This information is provided at the point of sale, confirmed in your order confirmation email, and is always available by calling us on 01924 507050 or emailing customerservice@hslchairs.com.

For distance or off-premises orders, a copy of your contract information will be provided in a durable format (such as email) at the time your order is confirmed.

 

Distance Selling Regulations

The following applies only to orders placed online, by post, Home Visit or over the telephone, and for items not purchased in one of our retail stores.

Orders considered to fall under the Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges (ICAC regulations), i.e. distance sales contracts, are subject to a 14 day return or exchange right. Where the 14th day falls on a Saturday, Sunday or Bank Holiday the final day shall be deemed to be the following working day. To exercise your right to cancel, please call 01924 486902.

Without having the benefit of visiting one of our stores prior to purchase, this period is to give the customer the opportunity to inspect the goods and correct any wrong choices that may have been made. As such, it is not a period where they can make normal use of that furniture and impact its condition.

Until returned, the furniture is under the customer’s ownership and it will be their responsibility to maintain and protect it, keeping it in “as new” condition.

All labels including fire label must remain intact. Failure to return goods in perfect condition may result in additional charges. You have the legal right to cancel your order within 14 days of receiving your goods.

All items returned must be in a perfect condition and there will be a collection fee of £100 to return any goods to us. Normal usage is usage of the furniture in line with what would be expected to try in-store.

We reserve the right to deduct any amounts if the furniture returned is not in new condition.

We recommend you look after your furniture according to the care instructions provided. To ensure safe use when operating a recliner chair we advise that you allow for a clearance of 16.5”-18″ between the back of the chair and a wall.

Please note that the 14-day cancellation right described above does not apply to products made to your individual specification. Please see the Made to Your Specification section for further information.

 

Cancellation

Since the furniture is manufactured to order, cancellation or amendment more than 48 hours after an in-store order is placed will incur a cancellation charge of 30% of order value (or £100 if greater) for standard furniture ranges. For products made to your individual specifications, no cancellation rights apply once your order is confirmed. Please see the Made to Your Specification section below.

Cancellations and returns of in-store orders after delivery will only be accepted on the grounds of product fault or damage arising pre-delivery.

Where orders of standard furniture ranges are cancelled under distance sales regulations, the cancellation charge will not be applied.

Please refer to the “Distance Selling” section for further information around processes and costs associated or call 01924 486902 for cancellations.

In the event you need to cancel a purchase pre-delivery due to the death of a customer, we will only charge a 30% cancellation fee of the order value that is held on account and can be used on a future purchase within 12 months. Alternatively a loss of 30% of the deposit will be charged.

 

Returning an Item

Most of our products are hand-made entirely to your individual requirements, your choice of size, fabric, finish and configuration, are built specifically for you. Because these products are manufactured to your personal specification and cannot be resold or adapted for another customer, they fall outside the standard 14-day cancellation right under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 (Regulation 28(1)(b)).

This means that once your order for a made-to-specification product has been confirmed, it cannot be cancelled or amended. Before you place your order, we will make this clear when you make your customisation choices, and we'll ask you to confirm, by ticking a box at checkout, that you understand and accept that the standard cancellation right does not apply. Your order confirmation email will also include a reminder of this.

If you have any questions before committing to your order, please call us on 01924 507050. Our Comfort Specialists are always happy to talk you through your options before anything is finalised.

 

Bedding

For hygiene reasons all bedding is non-returnable with the exception of any manufacturing faults. All bedding must be returned in original packaging.

 

Storage

On occasions our customers may require us to store their furniture for a short time following manufacture. We can in exceptional circumstances arrange this for you, a charge is payable for this service. Full payment for all goods must be paid on completion of manufacture in line with our standard terms and conditions.

In order to place an order on hold full payment must be made. You must allow a minimum of 4 – 6 weeks for furniture to be dispatched from hold and delivered.

On the day of delivery, you will be asked to sign to confirm receipt of goods in full.

 

What Happens if Your Furniture Has a Fault

Under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, if your furniture has a fault we'll always work to put it right as quickly as possible.

In the first 30 days: if your furniture arrives faulty or develops a fault within the first 30 days, you have the right to a repair, or a replacement. A full refund will be provided if your furniture cannot be repaired or replaced.

After 30 days: we'll carry out a repair first. If a repair isn't possible, or doesn't fully resolve the problem, we'll offer a replacement. If a replacement isn't practical, we'll offer a price reduction or a refund, taking into account any use you've had from the furniture.

After six months: if a fault appears after six months, we may ask you to show that the fault was present at the time of delivery. We'll always approach this fairly and do our best to find a resolution that works for you.

None of this affects your statutory rights.

We reserve the right to deduct the usage fee for items over 6 months old.

If you wish to make a claim outside the guarantee period set out below, you can contact us to discuss options for repair or replacement of your goods or call 01924 486902.

 

Pricing and Additional Charges

The total amount you will pay, including any delivery charge and VAT where applicable, will be confirmed on your order summary at checkout and in your order confirmation before your purchase is finalised.
