SECTION 3 – PRODUCTS & ORDERS
3.1 Product Descriptions & Measurements - Neue Maison strives to be as accurate as possible in all product descriptions and details; however, human or technological errors may occur occasionally. Thus, we cannot guarantee that all product descriptions and details on our Sites are accurate. Our Sites may contain typographical mistakes, inaccuracies, or omissions, and we reserve the right to correct any errors, inaccuracies, or omissions after an order has been submitted, and to change or update any information without prior notice. The product measurements or dimensions we provide are approximate. While we strive for accuracy, production limitations may result in slight variations to the measurements. If you have any questions about the content on our Sites, please contact us.
3.2 Product Availability - All product availability and lead times noted on our Sites are based on current inventory, which can change rapidly. If an in-stock item that you have purchased becomes out of stock before your order is processed, it will be subject to our standard lead time of 12-14 weeks for arrival at our warehouse, with additional shipping time to your final destination based on your selected shipping method. Please note that Neue Maison’s delivery estimates are dependent on factors beyond our control, including but not limited to production delays, shipping delays, government delays, dyelot issues, and outstanding balances. Neue Maison will not be liable for any orders affected by longer lead times or any deliveries that are received beyond the estimated delivery date.
3.3 Product Image & Color Discrepancies - Neue Maison strives to display product images on our Sites as accurately as possible; however, all of our images are professionally edited, which may lead to some discrepancies. Our products may also vary in appearance in different lighting. Our Sites also display as accurately as possible the colors of our products and materials. However, the colors will vary depending on your monitor’s settings, and thus we cannot guarantee that your monitor’s display of any color will be accurate. Please order material swatches from our website to see more accurate coloring. While we make every effort to ensure that our products are consistent in color and quality, there may be slight variations due to dye lot discrepancies in our fabrics and leathers. This may cause a difference between the color of our materials you see on our Sites and in person. The color and texture of the fabric used for your furniture may not be an exact match to what you see online or in our showroom.
3.4 Product Renderings - Some of the product images you see are artistic renderings created to show the final product in different materials. While they offer a general idea, actual details like colors, textures, and finishes may differ. These renderings serve as a representation and are subject to change without notice.
3.5 COM & Custom Orders - Please note that all COM (Customer’s Own Material) and custom orders are final sale and not eligible for cancellation or return. All COM and custom orders must be reviewed and approved by our production team before we can accept the order. Any upholstery or customization that is inadequate for production may be rejected by Neue Maison. Customers are responsible for all freight charges for sending COM to our warehouse, and an additional shipping fee will apply to all COM orders to cover the cost of sending the material to our overseas factories. Customers are responsible for shipping fees for any fabric returns. For more information, please check neuemaison.com/custom-order or neuemaison.ca/custom-order.
3.6 Drawings and Recommendations - Any drawings provided by Neue Maison are for concept only. Any product recommendations made by a member of our team based on drawings we have created or received from customers are only suggestions for the customer to consider. It is up to the customer’s own discretion and decision which products they would like to purchase, and Neue Maison will not be liable for any decisions made by the customer based on recommendations we have provided.
3.7 Order Cancellations - All products purchased on our Sites are subject to varying cancellation policies depending on the type of product. For all in-stock products, you may cancel your order within 1 business day from the original order date. For pre-ordered products, you may cancel anytime before the item leaves our warehouse. For made-to-order products, you may cancel the order within 6 business days at no charge. Otherwise, your refund will be reduced by a cancellation fee equal to 20% of the purchase price, which can be used as store credit for your next purchase. All COM, COL, and custom products are final sale. Customers are responsible for shipping fees for any fabric returns. Please note that an order cannot be changed or canceled once it has been shipped. If you decide to cancel your order after it has left the warehouse, we will recall the shipment and our return policy will apply accordingly. A refund will be issued, less outbound and return shipping fees. For made-to-order items, a cancellation fee equal to 20% of the purchase price, which can be used as store credit for your next purchase, will also be deducted.
