Terms & Conditions

Please note, most of our purchases are pre-orders as our stock sells out fast - so please check the date on the "Pre-Order for Month" button before proceeding with your order. If you place an order with us and later realise you did not check the pre-order month, we will provide you with a full refund at any time before we dispatch your order. 

STOCK SHORTAGES

If we are unable to fill your furniture order for any reason, we will contact you and offer a cancellation and refund, or a partial refund for the item/s that cannot be filled. If you opt for a partial refund, we will downgrade your order to the pricing of the lower set (minus the item/s that cannot be filled), or the separates pricing if this is applicable. Please note, this option does not apply to stock shortages of cot mattresses and change mats. In this case, we will not personally contact you, we will simply provide a refund (with an automated email notification) - as these items can be purchased at other outlets for comparable prices. Please check the product page for the correct sizing and feel free to contact us for substitute products from other brands if needed.   

Warranty Terms & Conditions

MANUFACTURER'S WARRANTY FOR FAULTY GOODS 

All of our furniture comes with a 12-month manufacturer's warranty.

If any of your recently purchased products are faulty, contact us immediately. Do not assemble your furniture if it is faulty. The fault will be assessed and a resolution will be negotiated depending on the type of fault and the assessed cause of the fault. If assembling your furniture makes it impossible for us to establish if the cause of a major fault was due to mishandling in assembly, the issue will not be covered by warranty. We will repair, replace or refund any faulty goods where the assessment clearly reveals that the defect is a manufacturing fault. We will work with you to obtain the photographic evidence that we require to enable us to assess the fault and then determine the appropriate course of action in order to resolve the issue. It may take up to 2 weeks to receive a replacement part - particularly in a busy period. Please note, being a timber product, this furniture is constructed from natural materials. Any imperfections in the wood grain, or minor chips or indents are not considered a manufacturing fault.

EXCLUSIONS OF MANUFACTURER'S WARRANTY FOR FAULTY GOODS

We cannot provide a replacement, repair or refund for furniture where there is damage and it is assessed to be caused by misuse or mishandling by the customer. As an example, where damage to an item is indicative of force used in the assembly process, as well as a failure to follow the assembly instructions - a refund, replacement or repair will not be provided free of charge. Where a customer fails to provide the requested photos that are required to assess the cause of a fault, the warranty will also be void. However, in these cases we do still want our customer's to be happy with our products and we will offer to order a replacement part or piece and these will be provided at cost price only. In these cases, the customer will be required to pay for shipping costs. 

SHIPPING WARRANTY FOR DAMAGES OR LOSS IN SHIPPING

If furniture is assessed to be significantly damaged in transit or on delivery, we will again refund, repair or replace the damaged parts at our own cost and in a timely manner. When you purchase a product with us and elect to pay for domestic shipping, your shipping costs include a warranty cover for any major damages or loss that occurs with our courier. This protects us and you in the event of loss or damages caused to your goods in transit. 

Because our furniture is packaged in a specific manner - we are able to determine where the furniture is damaged based on where the box is damaged. We will work with you to obtain photographic evidence of the packaging as well as the furniture and we will submit a warranty claim where there is clear evidence that damage has genuinely occurred in transit. We will require you to securely re-package the goods (if they have been opened) into the original boxes for return shipping. Please note, we have only submitted a small number warranty claims. If we do need to retrieve any item/s that are genuinely damaged in transit, this will be done at our expense. Or, if we need to replace or repair any majorly damaged item/s this will also be done by using your shipping warranty cover. Please note, indents and chips are not included in this warranty - this warranty covers major damages.

We are unable to take responsibility for any changes of address and subsequent loss in shipping. Because we are dealing with high volumes of customers any change of address can result in items being delivered to an incorrect address. If you are changing your address please arrange with a friend or relative to have your order delivered to their reliable address so there are no losses in shipping.

EXCLUSIONS TO SHIPPING WARRANTY FOR DAMAGES/LOST ITEMS IN SHIPPING

In the case of significant damages in shipping you will only ever pay the one-time, original cost of having your items sent to you. Where damages that are clearly not your fault occur (for example, a forklift appears to have gone through your cot box...and your cot) there will be no additional costs to you. Please note, in these cases the original cost of shipping is non-refundable. We use a third party for the shipping of goods. We do not profit from the shipping of goods and we do not factor shipping costs into the pricing of our goods. This enables us to offer low prices on the sale of our goods. However, it also means that your original shipping costs are non-refundable by us if we allow you to opt for a refund in the case of goods damaged in transit - as outlined, we will however, pay for the shipping costs in the recovery or replacement of majorly damaged goods in these cases.

Your shipping warranty does not cover you for theft following the delivery of your goods. We will provide you with a tracking link so that you will have notice as to when your goods will be delivered - this is in order for you to arrange to be home, or arrange for a family member or friend to be home when your goods are delivered. Cloud 9 Baby Bedrooms does not insure your goods for loss subsequent to delivery. Please seek insurance from a third party insurer if need be, or arrange with us to have your order delivered to your nearest TNT depot for collection by you. This must be arranged via email, prior to placing your order (we will provide you with the shipping address). Please note - we have not had any orders go missing upon delivery, but it is important to be aware of this risk and take measures if needed.

LIMITATIONS TO YOUR WARRANTY

Minor cosmetic issues such as chips and indents are not covered by your warranty. Because the furniture is made from NZ Pine and this material is a soft wood, the product does carry the inherent risk of chips and indents at any time during transit, or assembly, or regular usage. Please note - chips and indents rarely occur in transit due to the careful packaging of our products. Chips and indents sometimes occur in assembly when items are dropped or banged etc - please handle with care and always assemble your furniture on a soft (e.g. carpeted surface). This is the case with any timber furniture item.

Our wholesale pricing does not allow for free replacement parts or free shipping where minor damages such as chips and indents occur between our warehouse and your house. However, we will offer a replacement part at cost price plus the cost of shipping, or a free sample pot of paint to touch up the issue yourself. Chips and indents are deemed 'acceptable quality' because although we sell brand new goods, we sell these at genuine wholesale prices, or direct factory outlet prices equivalent to the price of 'seconds'. We also do not profit from the shipping of goods and we do not factor shipping costs into the pricing of our goods. This enables us to offer you much lower prices (around 50% off retail prices) on the sale of our goods however, it prohibits us from offering an extended warranty for minor cosmetic issues that may (or may not) be included when these items are purchased at full retail prices.

Please be sure to follow the care instructions for your furniture as your warranty does not cover you for damages incurred by misuse. In particular and unlike other timber furniture, our baby furniture uses a non-toxic paint for safety reasons (e.g. to protect your teething baby if he/she chews the timber and ingests the paint). This means the paint is a water based enamel - not an oil based enamel. Water based enamel, unlike oil based enamel, is not water resistant. Therefore, do not wash your furniture with any liquids, or leave any containers holding liquids on your furniture as this may damage your paintwork, causing it to chip over time. You can dust your furniture and use a damp cloth to spot clean as needed.

The refund amount will be based on the condition of the goods returned to us.
