Defects

Should a product arrive faulty or defective upon receipt, FCF will repair the defect free of charge. Where a product is deemed by FCF to be in a state of un-repair or the damage considered major, we will replace the product free of charge to the customer. If a replacement product is not available, the customer, upon returning the product, will receive a full refund. The freight costs incurred to return a damaged or defective product will not be charged or payable by the customer. 

Damaged goods must be notified to FCF within 24 hours of receiving your goods and FCF may require the customer to provide proof of damage. Once notified of a defective product, FCF customer service will be in contact to initiate a resolution and where appropriate, organise the collection and return of the product at an agreed and convenient time.

Customers bear the responsibility of any futile charges that arise (where the pick-up is booked but the consignment is not available for collection at the agreed time period).

Where a product is purchased or picked up directly from our warehouse, the customer is required to return the product to FCF to initiate a warranty claim.

All returned goods must be in their original packaging with all accessories and be in original condition. FCF is committed to comply with Australian Consumer Law.

Warranty

FCF offers a 12 month warranty to be free from defects in materials and workmanship in accordance with Australian consumer law. Customers may be required to provide evidence (such as photos) to substantiate their warranty claim. Upon approval, FCF will replace or repair the defect, at its discretion. Normal wear & tear, damage arising from abnormal use or abuse, products which have not been maintained, or have been modified and any indirect or consequential loss is not covered by the warranty. Minor variations in advertised size, colour or appearance is not covered by this warranty. 

Customers may be required to provide photographic evidence of any alleged damage and/or defects to assist in the assessment of a warranty claim.

We are unable and do not provide any warranty on fabrics. This is because we can not be liable for the way and manner in which fabrics are used and treated. We highly recommended that before cleaning or treating fabric you obtain professional advice. This also applies to any fabric protection.

Unless otherwise specified, all products are intended for indoor use only. Products which have been used in an outdoor capacity, and are exposed to outdoor elements, whether undercover or covered will not be covered by the warranty. The warranty period commences on the date the item is delivered by the courier, or the purchase date when customers elect to pick up or purchase directly from the showroom. If an item is replaced the warranty is still valid from the original date of delivery and not the replacement date.   Customers are required to provide proof of purchase when lodging a warranty claim.

Please note that our warranty does not cover any freight or transportation charges incurred for the collection or return of products unless otherwise agreed and/or stated.

Please note that our warranty does not cover fabrics or leather. This is due to the fact that we are unable to control how these materials are used, cleaned, or maintained once in the customer's possession. As such, we cannot guarantee against wear, fading, staining, piling or damage resulting from improper care, abuse, sun exposure, the use of abrasives or improper detergents or usage. We recommend following appropriate care instructions to prolong the life and appearance of your upholstery.

Please note that our warranty does not cover fabrics or leather, including damage or wear caused by buckles, belts, or general wear and tear.Issues resulting from general wear and tear, improper use, or environmental exposure are not covered under the warranty. Over time, regular use may naturally lead to changes in the fabric such as softening, fading, or variations in appearance. These changes are considered a normal part of the ageing process and are therefore excluded from warranty coverage.

Future Classics Furniture reserves the right to deny any refund, repair, or replacement if it is determined that the damage is the result of normal wear and tear, sun damage, improper care or maintenance, improper use of cleaning materials, misuse, abuse, or use in a setting outside the product's intended purpose.

Any defects or damage to an item must be reported within a reasonable period of time (24 hours) and/or on the time of delivery, we are unable to replace/repair or honour a warranty claim if reported days/weeks/months later even if the products may have been in customers storage. We are unable to determine how goods may have been stored or handled whilst in customers possession and as such we can not provide a warranty after goods may have been unpacked, unwrapped and assembled at a later stage after date of our delivery or collection.

Please note that general wear and tear, as well as damage resulting from misuse, neglect, or abuse, is not covered under warranty.

Natural signs of use — including minor scratches, marks, fading, pilling of fabrics, or softening of cushioning — are considered normal wear and tear and do not constitute a manufacturing fault.

Any damage caused by improper use, attempts to clean, accidental impacts, failure to follow normal care, or neglect (including but not limited to spills, staining, scratches, chips, or cracks) will not be covered under any warranty. This includes:

• Misuse or abuse of an item. 

• Failure to care for or maintain the item properly.

• Accidental damage or neglect caused by customer.

In cases where damage is clearly attributable to misuse or abuse, warranty claims will be declined, as warranties apply strictly to manufacturing defects or workmanship under normal recommended use. FCF can not be held liable or responsible for any damage that may be caused to a product in a customers care which is clearly a result of misuse or abuse even if accidental. 

Future Classics Furniture (FCF) is not responsible for any damage that occurs to a product while in the customer’s care where such damage is determined to result from misuse, accidental damage, or lack of proper care. 

Proof of purchase is required for all warranty claims. Additional information or documentation may be requested at the sole discretion of Future Classics Furniture to support the evaluation of the claim.

All warranty decisions are made at the discretion of Future Classics Furniture and are subject to the conditions outlined above. Where applicable, products may be repaired or replaced based on the nature of the damage and the specific circumstances of the claim.

All warranty claims together with photographs should please be emailed to: info@futureclassicsfurniture.com.au
