Return Policy

Our Overall Goal

Our goal is help find the best solution to your mobility needs. We want to work with you if a purchased item doesn’t solve your issue the way you were expecting it to. In most cases, if we can find a different product of equal or greater value as a better solution, we can waive any restocking fees by doing a one-time exchange within 3 days of receipt. The following restrictions would apply: If the original item is used, damaged, is in a smoking environment or around strong odors, if it was a special order that is not returnable per our guidelines below, or is outside of our store delivery area. The initial delivery fee / shipping charge would be nonrefundable and a 2nd delivery / exchange fee would be charged.

Incontinence:

Repairs and Return Limitations Repairs:

Incontinence issues can cause serious safety issues and severe damages to any product.

If repairs are needed, we reserve the right to refuse service to protect our employees. Warranties do not cover damages to parts (fabric, frame, motors, etc.) from incontinence, period.

If incontinence is detected on any product, we reserve the right to void any labor / parts warranty on the product. Refunds will not be issued for any extended warranties previously purchased.

Returns: We want all of our customers to receive brand new products that are new and without signs of use. Based on this, we cannot take any returns of products that

1. show signs of use when incontinence is detected

2. if there is a general odor of urine in the home from the user or from pets.
