Refund policy

Returns & Warranty

We want you to be satisfied with your purchase. If you need to make a return, all items must be in original condition and packaging, and you must request a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) before shipping anything back.

To start a return or warranty claim, email cs@estorescorp.com with your order number, product details, and a brief explanation of the issue. Items sent back without an approved RMA will not be accepted.

Neutral Posture Products

Neutral Posture chairs and seating products are often built to order. If you need to request a return, the return must be approved in advance and the product must have been delivered within the last 30 days. Once approved, returned merchandise must be received within 30 days of the RMA being issued.

To be eligible for return, items must be unused, in original condition, and in the original packaging. Products must be in good reusable condition. Returns will not be accepted for products that are no longer offered for sale, including COM materials or other non-standard or custom items. No refund or credit will be issued for products returned damaged.

All approved returns are subject to a restocking fee. Seating products are subject to a 30% restocking fee. Eligible GSA orders may be subject to a 20% restocking fee. Non-seating or systems-related products approved for return may be subject to a 45% restocking fee. Customers are responsible for return shipping charges, and all returns must be shipped freight prepaid.

Order cancellations after production begins may be treated as returns and may be subject to the same applicable restocking fees.

Refunds are issued to the original payment method after the returned merchandise is received and inspected, less any applicable restocking and shipping charges.

Warranty

Neutral Posture warrants to the original purchaser that its products are free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal single-shift use, which means up to 8 hours per day and 5 days per week, for the applicable warranty periods listed below.

Products used in environments that exceed single-shift use are covered for 2 years, unless they are specifically rated for 24/7 continuous-shift intensive use.

Neutral Posture’s warranty obligation is limited to the repair or replacement of defective products or parts, at its discretion, after inspection and approval of the claim. Warranty coverage applies only to the original purchaser.

Freight for approved warranty parts and products is covered within the contiguous 48 United States and the District of Columbia, with the shipping method determined at Neutral Posture’s discretion.

The customer is responsible for normal maintenance, including assembly, adjustments, operation checks, routine cleaning, lubrication where applicable, and checking screws every six months.

eStores Direct will only be able to escalate warranty issues to Neutral Posture for products ordered from our website - NeutralPostureChairs.com. If you purchased your product from a different authorized retailer, you would need to speak with them directly.
