Please note, you will be responsible for paying the shipping costs for returns. Shipping costs are non-refundable.

Please note that this return policy only applies to issues with the product itself and does not cover changes in personal taste or incorrect choices made by the customer. We recommend carefully reviewing the design and specifications of the product before placing an order to ensure that it meets your needs and expectations.

The warranty starts from the date of delivery and offers cover against manufacturing faults on the frame and spring construction. 

All sofas purchased in Lava Store are meant for relaxing and sofas with sleeping function are meant for relaxing and occasional sleeping. Sofa beds are not meant to replace beds and therefore are not meant for everyday sleeping.

How to get covered:

You will need to take photographs of the faults/damages and email them to lavafurniturestore@gmail.com with a description of the problem. Our team will then decide whether the damage is covered by warranty. On some occasions Lava Store will send out a person to examine the furniture at a customers home to check if the damage was caused by a production fault.

If considered covered by this limited warranty, Lava Store through its own service operations, will then, at its sole discretion, either repair the defective product or replace it with the same or a comparable product. 

If it is covered by this warranty, Lava Store will pay the costs of repairs, spare parts, and labour. This does not apply to any repair work not authorised by Lava Store.

If a repair cannot be carried out in a customers home, Lava Store will organise collection and will bring the item back to the manufacturer to be repaired and will then deliver the repaired item back to the customer free of charge. Lava Store does not offer a replacement sofa for the time of repairing the damaged sofa.
