Return and Cancellation Policy

We want you to be completely satisfied with your purchase. If something isn't right, our customer service team is here to help — reach us at support@coffeeionado.com or via our contact page. For full details on all return procedures, fees, and conditions, see our Terms of Sale.


Before You Begin

All returns require a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) number issued by our customer service team before sending anything back. Returns received without an RMA may be refused or subject to additional fees. RMA numbers are valid for 15 days from issue and will not be provided by phone — please contact us in writing via email or our contact page.


Standard Returns — Home and Non-Commercial Equipment

Eligible standard equipment may be returned within 30 days of delivery subject to the following:

  • Item must be in like-new condition — clean, dry, fully assembled, with all original parts, accessories, packaging, and manuals included
  • Serial number must be intact and match the original invoice
  • UPC barcode must not be removed or altered
  • Item must be shipped in an outer carton — do not ship in the manufacturer's box alone
  • Refurbished, used, clearance, and special order items are not eligible for return

Upon satisfactory return, a refund will be issued to the original payment method minus:

  • Original shipping charges
  • Return shipping charges
  • Restocking fee of up to 20%
  • Any applicable cleaning or refurbishment fees

Exchanges are expedited — notify us before returning if you'd like to exchange rather than refund.


Non-Returnable Items

The following are not eligible for return under any circumstances:

  • All commercial equipment — see Commercial Sales below
  • Any commercial espresso machine that has been installed or where installation has been attempted, including connection to a water supply, drain, or electrical supply — regardless of whether installation was completed successfully
  • Items returned outside the 30-day window — no exceptions
  • Items with removed or altered UPC barcodes — no exceptions
  • Cleaning agents, coffee, and consumables
  • Items marked refurbished, used, open box, or clearance
  • Special or factory-ordered items

Commercial Sales

All commercial equipment sales are final. Return requests on commercial equipment must be made within 5 business days of delivery and are subject to approval at Coffeeionado's sole discretion. Equipment must be unused, unopened, and in original packaging.

Any commercial espresso machine that has been installed or where installation has been attempted — including connection to a water supply, drain, or electrical supply — is a final sale and cannot be returned, exchanged, or refunded under any circumstances, regardless of whether installation was completed successfully.

Approved commercial returns are subject to restocking fees of 20%–50% plus all shipping and handling charges. See our [Terms of Sale] for full commercial return conditions.


Unauthorized Returns

Returns received without a valid RMA number may be refused. If accepted, unauthorized returns are subject to a restocking fee of up to 40% plus all applicable shipping charges. Issuance of an RMA is not a guarantee of refund — all returns are subject to inspection.


Cancellations

Orders cancelled within 24 hours of placement and before shipment are subject to a 3% processing fee to cover non-refundable payment processing costs.

Orders cancelled after 24 hours but before shipment are also subject to the 3% processing fee.

Once an order has shipped, cancellation is no longer possible — the order must be returned under our standard return process and all associated shipping and restocking fees apply.

Special and factory-ordered items may be subject to cancellation fees of up to 50% regardless of shipment status. See our [Terms of Sale] for full details.

Pre-order items may be cancelled at no charge provided they have not yet been processed for shipment.


Refused Delivery

Refusing delivery of an order will result in a credit minus shipping costs to and from your location plus applicable restocking fees. Freight carrier storage and redelivery fees resulting from a refusal are the customer's responsibility.


Governing Terms

This policy is a summary. Full return, exchange, and cancellation terms — including like-new condition requirements, packing instructions, damage claims, and commercial procedures — are set out in our Terms of Sale. In the event of any conflict, the Terms of Sale and Terms of Service govern.
