Shipping charges listed are subject to change unless otherwise noted.

Lead Time
Lead times quoted are important to us.  Michele Pelafas, Inc. shall make every reasonable effort to meet the estimated delivery date but cannot be responsible for order delays due to material shortages, strikes, accidents, and delays beyond our control.  Check with Michele Pelafas, Inc. for current status lead times for the item(s) you are ordering. This lead-time does not include transit time of freight lines to your location.  Delays beyond our control with shipping companies, freight, ocean transit and customs will not be subject to a refund of any sort associated with costs because of these delays.  We do not recommend scheduling a plumber or installation prior to receiving your shipment.  Michele Pelafas, Inc. is not responsible for plumbing, contractor or installation costs associated with any delays.

Delivery
Your order and products are important and deserve care and attention.   Your products are shipped in such a way to prevent damage in shipping. It is possible that certain items may deliver separately from a different carrier and tracking number.  Once you are notified that your order is complete, there can be up to a 7 to 10 day transit time for shipments within the 48 contiguous states.  Normal delivery times are Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm with a 4-hour window.  Weekend delivery requests and shorter windows are an additional charge and may not be available in all cities or states.  Very important!  Inspect your shipment as soon as it arrives and before the driver leaves.  Freight damage rarely occurs however, should you discover damage, you have two options:

1.  Keep the damaged product if it is still usable and you need it for a critical opening date or installation and note the detail of the damage on the bill of lading.

2.  Reject the damaged product and note the damage on the bill of lading (preferred method for ease of freight claims)

If you are unable to fully inspect the shipment prior to the driver leaving, please note on the bill of lading:   “Unable to inspect furniture prior to driver leaving”.

Items are also shipped tailgate delivery unless otherwise specified.  This means the shipping company brings the shipment to the curb or loading dock only and the owner is responsible for bring the goods inside. Inside and white glove delivery is available for an additional fee.   Installation is not included with any order unless specified.

Product Warranty
Our products are covered by a full year 365 day limited warranty.

This warranty does not cover acts of nature, fire, freezing, abusive use or damages incurred during installation with mishandling.   Accounts must be current and warranty items must be paid for in order for warranty action to be valid.

White Fabrics & Color Transfer 
All of our fabrics are commercial grade and are the highest performing vinyls and fabrics on the market.  While they are a superior product, certain products such as hair color and dye from clothing including denim jeans can transfer onto our seating and stain.  Michele Pelafas, Inc. will ship these upholstered products in pristine condition, however, the client acknowledges that white or light upholstery is a risky color in a commercial environment and that color transfer from clothing can appear on our seating and is not the responsibility of Michele Pelafas Inc.NOTE:  Back Massage will increase the likely-hood of color transfer from clothing onto the back cushion as friction between fabrics can cause micro-breakages in the clothing fibers and lead to the release of dye. Client acknowledges that Michele Pelafas, Inc. is not responsible for color transfer from clothing that can form in a series of two distinct columns where the back massage rollers track.  A protective, disposable cover is recommended.

Disclaimer
Michele Pelafas, Inc. reserves the right to make changes in design, features and materials, as well as discontinue parts, pieces, features and units when such action is deemed necessary
