1. Eligibility & Timeframe
- 30-Day Return Window: Pursuant to California Consumer Protection Law, customers may return unused, unwashed bedding items (sheets, duvet covers, pillows) within 30 days of delivery for a full refund. This exceeds federal minimums and aligns with industry best practices.
- Extended Holiday Period: Orders placed between November 1–December 31 qualify for returns until January 31 (60-day window) for gift-related purchases.
2. Conditions for Return
- Hygiene Compliance: Opened mattress toppers, custom-sized bedding, and used/washed items are non-refundable unless defective. Original packaging, tags, and hygiene seals must remain intact.
- Proof of Purchase: Digital/physical receipts, order numbers, or bank statements are required. Unverified returns may receive store credit instead of cash refunds.
- Non-Returnable Items: Final sale items (e.g., clearance bedding), gift cards, digital products, and custom-embroidered linens.
3. Return Process
