We’re conﬁdent you’ll love your gorgeous new Next

before you put it all together.

So, let’s quickly run through these three steps:

TIPS FOR RETURNS

Not completely happy with the product? No problem.

We just need everything back in the original packaging, so follow the steps below

and this will ensure a super-smooth returns process and no delay to your refund.

1. COLOUR

Make sure you’re happy with the colour

No need to unpack everything, just check the ﬁrst component.

2. PROTECTIVE PACKAGING

If you’re happy, then it’s time to get opening! Start by laying everything out

on the protective packaging – this will prevent anything getting scratched.

3. PARTS PAGE

Finally, double check you have all the pieces by referencing

the parts page of the instructions.

• Check everything is there (the ‘parts page’

is a handy checklist).

• Pop all the loose ﬁttings and ﬁxtures into

the packaging provided or tie them up in a

plastic bag.

• Wrap all the big components back

up in the original protective packaging.

• Close up the box and seal it securely

(don’t be afraid to use plenty of tape).

DO DON’T

• Leave anything assembled -

all components should be dismantled

and separately packed.

• Put loose ﬁxtures and ﬁttings straight

into the box.

• Throw it back in the box carelessly –

as it may get damaged.

Then just give us a call on 0333 777 8999 and we’ll sort out a pick up time for you.
