PLACING YOUR ORDER

By placing an Order, you make an offer to us to purchase the Products you have selected based on these Terms and Conditions. Information contained on Wowbeds website constitutes an invitation to treat. No information on our website constitutes or should be deemed as an offer by us to supply any Products; however, Wowbeds will make every effort to supply Products to you. We will notify you that your order is being processed by sending you an Order Confirmation and tax invoice via email; however, we do not formally accept your offer until your order has passed our internal validation procedures for verifying the bona fides of each order placed, for the purpose of preventing credit card or payment fraud. Wowbeds and its affiliates reserve the right to refuse service, terminate accounts, remove or edit content, or cancel orders in their sole discretion. We will confirm acceptance of your order when we send you an email confirming shipment of the goods you have ordered. If we cannot process or accept your Order after payment is received we will contact you by email or telephone.

The price of products shown excludes shipping costs. Shipping cost is shown separately on the product page but may be recalculated based on how many and what items you place in your shopping cart.

DELIVERY OF YOUR PRODUCTS

Wowbeds makes every effort to deliver your Product according to the estimated delivery times. The estimated delivery times are in business days (Monday to Friday) excluding Public holidays. Although every effort is made to deliver your order according to the estimated delivery times provided, estimated delivery times may change due to changes in supply or circumstances beyond our control. If your Product has not arrived after the estimated delivery time, please contact us.

Unless otherwise agreed by us, we will deliver your Products to the address indicated on your Order Confirmation. Where delivery is by our courier service and no-one is available to take delivery, we will contact you to arrange a suitable time and date for re-delivery. We will use our reasonable efforts to deliver your Products to you within the estimated delivery time indicated on your Order Confirmation; however, we cannot guarantee that we will deliver within this time frame.

CONSUMER GUARANTEES

Consumer guarantees apply under the Australian Consumer Law. Nothing in these Terms and Conditions excludes the application of those guarantees. For more information about your rights as a consumer, see the Australian Consumer Law website at http://www.consumerlaw.gov.au

If a Product has a minor defect, we will provide a repair or offer you a replacement or a refund.

If a Product has a major defect, you are entitled to:

  • reject the goods and receive a refund
  • reject the goods and receive an identical replacement, or one of similar value if reasonably available, or
  • keep the goods and receive compensation for the drop in value caused by the problem.

If you think that a Product is defective you should contact our Customer Service Help Centre and a Wowbeds Customer Service Representative will assist you. A photo may be requested to assist with the assessment of your claim.

Where a Product is defective and needs to be replaced or repaired return shipping will be arranged at the expense of Wowbeds. If a Product is replaced, your replacement product becomes your property and the returned Product becomes our property. When a refund is given, the returned Product becomes our property.

RETURN AUTHORISATION NUMBER - A MUST HAVE

A Return Authorisation (RA) number is required for replacement products and refunds.

Where Customer Service has provisionally determined that a product is defective, Customer Service will issue you with an RA. Products cannot be returned without an RA. The product should be returned to Wowbeds within 30 calendar days of the issuance of the RA. Where possible, all products should be packed in the original, unmarked packaging including any accessories, manuals, documentation and registration that shipped with the product. If the accessories are not included, only a partial refund will be applied.

ORGANISING THE RETURN OF PRODUCTS

Products must be returned whenever we agree to provide you with a refund or replace the product. Where you have received a defective Product by our courier service, we will make arrangements with our courier service for collection of the product, and will notify you when they will collect the product from you. Pickup times are between 9am and 5pm, Monday to Friday. Customer Service will email you a PDF voucher containing an RA which you must affix to the product.

RETURNS

If you’re not happy within the 120 night trial period, please contact us and we will begin the return and refund process. We will arrange for one of our local charity partners to contact you and arrange a suitable time to pick up the mattress. Please allow up to 2 weeks for pickup. In some cases, where pickups are required outside of metro areas and main regional cities, we will make every effort to contact charities in your local area to collect the mattress. If all reasonable attempts to locate a local charity have been exhausted, you will need to arrange to drop off the mattress at your nearest mattress drop off location or one of our warehouses closest to you before a refund can be processed.    

Our charity partners will rehome the mattress to those in need. If this is not possible, the mattress will be professionally recycled.

After pick up/drop off has been confirmed we’ll arrange the full refund - no hidden fees,no extra charges, 100% of what you paid. The refund process normally takes about 4 days.

In order to qualify for a return, all mattresses must be clean and undamaged with no stains, soiling, rips or tears and in an acceptable condition for collection by our charity partners. A mattress that our charity partners feel is not suitable for collection, will not be eligible for a refund.

Please make sure you keep a copy of your original invoice for refund purposes. 

Refunds can only be given to the paying customers and only 1 mattress return per household is permitted.

The 120 Night Trial is limited to mattresses only and returns and refunds are not permitted for other items such as bed frames or pillows.

After verification this information will be destroyed. In this case, until your order has passed internal Fraud Prevention procedure checks your order will remain on Pending status. If you do not provide the requested information within 7 days, your order will be cancelled and your payment will be refunded back to the method in which you paid. These information requests are sent to help protect Credit Card and PayPal account holders from online Fraud.
