We aim to constantly improve and develop the DFS website for the benefit of all our customers, to allow this process to take place, we may occasionally:

• Modify or withdraw, temporarily or permanently, this Website (or any part of it) with or without notice; and/or
• Change the Conditions from time to time, and your continued use of the Website (or any part of it) following such change will demonstrate your acceptance of such change.
• Alter or extend promotions at any time.

If DFS is informed of any inaccuracies in the material on the Site we will attempt to correct them as soon as we reasonably can.

DFS makes every effort to ensure that this website is free from viruses or defects. However, due to the nature of the Internet, we cannot guarantee that your use of this website won’t affect your computer. DFS recommends that you purchase the right firewall and anti virus software to use this and other websites and screen out anything that may damage it. DFS shall not be liable in the very unlikely event that while using this website your computer equipment is damaged.

DFS has taken every care in the preparation of the content of this website, in particular to ensure that prices quoted are correct at time of publishing and all products have been fairly described. However, orders will only be accepted if there are no material errors in the description of the goods or their prices as advertised on this website. All prices are displayed inclusive of V.A.T. We make every effort to display the colour of the furniture as accurately as possible. But as colour reproduction depends on your computer’s monitor, we cannot guarantee that your monitor’s display of the colour is accurate to the actual product. To help ensure that you purchase the sofa colour of your choice we will endeavour to send out a sample swatch of your chosen colour.

If you decide you would like to place an order with DFS by speaking to one of our personal shopping advisors, please have the following information ready as it will help us process your order, however, we will be delighted to answer any queries you may have. Here are some of the most common questions for you to consider:

• Can access be gained easily for the furniture to be delivered? – are the doors wide enough, are there any awkward stairs, lift or passageways?
• Will the furniture fit in the room?
• Which range are you interested in?
• Which items from the range do you want to order? Please note that if you are thinking of buying extra items such as a footstool or chair at a later date, there may be a slight colour shade variance. It is therefore best to order all the furniture you require at the same time
• What colour would you like the furniture in?
• How would you like to pay for the furniture?

Everything that DFS sells is handmade. As a manufacturer we pride ourselves on being able to make furniture that's perfect for you.

If you place an order with dfs Direct, we will send all your paperwork by 1st class post to arrive within 3 working days.

It is important that you appreciate and understand that this order is a legally binding contract. Your statutory rights, including any cancellation rights, are unaffected.

You will be informed of the likely approximate length of time until delivery at the point of order. Once your order is confirmed as available for delivery we will contact you to agree definite arrangements for the date of delivery. Where possible we will deliver on the first available van in your area as we are unable to store your furniture. Every effort is made to see that the approximate delivery date is accurate, but on rare occasions the manufacture of your furniture may be delayed through circumstances beyond our control. We will, of course, make every effort to keep you informed.

If you choose to pay using humm interest free credit, the approximate delivery time will start once you have completed your humm application and signed your credit agreement, so we advise completing this as soon as possible.

Your swatch box should be dispatched in the next day or two, and we'll contact you by email to let you know that your swatch box is on its way. We would also like to keep in touch with you in the future. However, if you only want to know that your swatch box has been despatched, you can unsubscribe by clicking the link in the same email.

A charge of €129 is made for our delivery and installation service for deliveries made in Ireland, within a 40 mile radius by road of any DFS store. If you wish your order to be delivered outside the 40 mile radius we will be happy to provide you with a personal delivery quotation. e.g. mainland Europe, Channel Islands, etc.

DFS can deliver and fully install your furniture to destinations outside the Republic of Ireland and regularly deliver to mainland Spain and Portugal via our trusted third party suppliers. For a personal quote please call +44 (0)1977 786153 to speak to a personal shopper or leave your details and we will call you back for free.

On the day of delivery, please ensure that the delivery team can gain easy access to the room that the furniture is going into. Please make sure that the area you want the furniture placed is cleared. Our delivery team will unpack your furniture, install it in the room of your choice and if you wish we will remove all packing materials from your home and recycle wherever possible. Unfortunately, we are not able to take away your old furniture. To make sure you are completely satisfied with your furniture the delivery team will ask you to sign for your furniture after it has been installed.

DFS guarantees that products advertised on this website as guaranteed delivery before Christmas will be delivered no later than the 24th December to mainland ROI addresses including Northern Ireland. If you live outside mainland ROI and NI please speak to a personal shopper who will be able to advise on delivery times. However, if due to circumstances beyond our control DFS fails to deliver in time for Christmas, substitute furniture will be supplied for use until your order is fulfilled.

Payment methods include debit or credit cards, Visa, Mastercard, Delta/Connect or Maestro. Payments can be made electronically by bank transfer, details will be provided on request. DFS do not accept any responsibility for cash sent in the post and strongly recommend that you do NOT use this method of payment.

If DFS have agreed that you can pay for the balance of your order by card on delivery, any outstanding payments must be made to the delivery team before the installation of the furniture will take place.

Right to cancel - Cooling Off Period. Where you purchased Products* exclusively via our Website or Websales and have not seen them in a store prior to purchase, then you are entitled to change your mind and cancel your Contract up to 14 days after delivery.

You will be entitled to a full refund of the price paid for the Products plus standard delivery costs; however, we are entitled to reduce the amount of any refund to reflect any reduction in the value caused by you or if you have failed to take reasonable care when handling the Products, and express delivery charges above the standard rate will not be refunded.

* Your rights to cancel during the Cooling Off Period excludes:

i) Bespoke items custom made to your specification.

ii) Mattresses which have been unsealed, due to their intimate nature. All mattresses are delivered sealed in clear plastic wrapping that will allow for inspection. Any mattresses that have been unsealed will be deemed as having been used. Therefore they cannot be returned for any reason other than because they are not as described or are not of satisfactory quality.

iii) Self-assembly items that have been damaged during assembly.

iv) Purchases made in-store or where you have inspected the Product prior to purchase.

If the Cooling Off Period applies and you wish to cancel please contact us in writing as soon as possible. If you are exercising your right under this clause you must arrange for the return of the Products to us showing no evidence of use within 14 days of you telling us you wish to cancel the Contract. Whilst the Products are in your possession you must not handle them beyond what is necessary to establish their nature, characteristics and function. It is your responsibility to return any Products to our central delivery point in a good condition and we ask that you return the Products in appropriate packaging such as to prevent damage in transit. DFS recognises that many customers do not have the means to return Products themselves, and so we can arrange collection during normal business hours (Monday to Friday). A charge of up to €195 will be made to cover the cost of collecting the items. For orders where the delivery charge was more than the standard charge, collection costs will vary and may exceed €195. We may also charge you for any usage of the Product prior to collection by us so you should try not to use the Product whilst it is in your possession.

Cancellation of your Contract where DFS are not at fault and there is no statutory right to change your mind. If you request to cancel your Order before it is completed, you will have to contribute towards our costs which we have already incurred by preparing your Order. We will refund any money paid for Products not provided deducting a reasonable contribution towards the costs already incurred by us. If you notify DFS within 48 hours of placing your order we may be able to prevent any costs being incurred with our manufacturing & logistics partners. Cancellations and amendments more than 48 hours after the order is placed could incur a cost of up to 20% of the price of the Products as a contribution towards the costs already incurred by us.

If you are entitled to a refund, it will usually be processed within 14 days and will use the same method as the original payment. If the original payment method was a credit agreement, DFS will make the refund to the finance provider usually within 14 days, the finance provider is responsible for deducting the amount from your agreement, please see the terms & conditions of your credit agreement for further information. Any Products that need to be returned to DFS (please refer to the Cancellation Policy for further information) must be returned to our central delivery point prior to the refund being processed. When calculating refunds, a deduction may be applied to cover usage depending on the condition and length of time the Product has been in your possession.
