Wekaape designs and builds solid-wood furniture and supports returns in every country listed above. This page explains how Wekaape solves issues and how returns, exchanges, and refunds work for furniture orders. All amounts appear in USD. You owe nothing beyond checkout — return labels or pickups and any import tax (VAT/GST), duties, brokerage, and customs processing are paid by Wekaape where eligible (no extra customs charges on return shipments).
Quick summary
Return window: 30 days from delivery — start by contacting support and include your order number.
Costs: For eligible returns, Wekaape provides a prepaid label or books a pickup. For international returns using Wekaape’s documents, VAT/GST and duties are covered. No restocking fee on eligible returns.
Refund timing: Within 7 business days after the item arrives and passes review, paid in USD to the original payment method (store credit available on request).
Proof of purchase: Order number or the email/phone used at checkout.
Support speed: 1–2 business days (Mon–Fri, EST).
Eligibility rules (furniture)
Items must return new, unused, unassembled, and unmodified so heavier wood parts stay protected during transport. Marks, dents, stains, odors, pet hair, added holes, refinishing, or bases that were installed or leveled make preference returns ineligible. Include the original protective materials (foam, corner guards, hardware packs, manuals, tools). If anything is missing, repack with equal or stronger protection.
Furniture that was assembled, installed, glued, or altered can be sent back only when Wekaape confirms a manufacturing defect or verified carrier damage. Intended use is indoor residential/studio. Some larger pieces may need pallet pickup or a truck with a lift; Wekaape will outline the steps during scheduling. Return shipments must start from the covered regions listed at the top of this page.
Natural wood characteristics
No two boards are the same. Grain, color, and small knots naturally vary in solid wood. These are normal material traits, not defects.
If something is wrong (damage, defect, or wrong item)
If an item arrives damaged, has a build fault, or doesn’t match the model, size, or finish ordered, Wekaape will make it right. Wekaape covers return shipping (label or scheduled pickup) and then sends a replacement—subject to stock and timing—or issues a full refund in USD. Any outbound shipping you paid for that item is also refunded. For minor cosmetic problems, replacement parts or a touch-up kit may be the fastest fix. For international returns using Wekaape’s label and papers, VAT/GST, duties, brokerage, and customs processing are covered.
Change of mind (space, size, or finish preference)
You may request a preference return within 30 days if the item is unused and properly packed. Wekaape pays the return freight, so there’s no extra payment from you. After review confirms all parts and like-new condition, Wekaape refunds the product price in USD. Original outbound shipping isn’t refunded for preference returns. Any exchange price difference is settled in USD when the exchange is processed.
Items that cannot be returned
Gift cards, final-sale/clearance items, and custom or made-to-order furniture (non-standard sizes, unique edges, special stains/finishes, inlays/carvings, non-standard bases) aren’t returnable unless defective or damaged at delivery. Furniture that has been used, assembled, installed, modified, or refinished is not eligible. If your order included a bundle or free gift, all items must be returned; otherwise Wekaape may deduct the prorated value of missing pieces from the refund.
How to start a return
Email [email protected] or use the site contact form within 30 days of delivery and include your order number with a short note. If the issue is damage or a defect, contact Wekaape within 72 hours and attach clear photos or a brief video of the outer carton, inner packing, and affected areas; keep all packaging until you receive next steps. Wekaape replies within 1–2 business days. If eligible, Wekaape issues a prepaid parcel label or schedules a freight pickup and shares simple packing directions.
Return address: Wekaape Returns Department, 19613 Temple Ave, South Chesterfield, VA 23834.
Label/pickup expiry: 10 calendar days — please ship or be available within that window. After the first carrier scan, transit risk transfers to Wekaape. Include the Wekaape Return Authorization that comes with your label; shipments without authorization may be delayed.
Packing guidance (furniture)
Secure tops, legs, and bases so nothing moves in the box or crate. Reuse the original foam and corner guards when possible. Bag all hardware and tools and fix the bag inside the package. If the original box is missing, use a new strong carton or a pallet crate with thick padding on all sides and tape every seam firmly. For freight returns, Wekaape will confirm pallet needs and provide the required shipping paperwork.
Inspection checklist
Reviewers confirm the model, size, and finish; check that all components and hardware are present; ensure there are no signs of use or changes; and verify the packing is strong enough to prevent new damage in transit. If parts are missing or protection is inadequate and damage occurs, Wekaape may reduce the refund to cover repair or replacement, or—if you prefer—return the item to you. No new fees are charged; Wekaape arranges and pays the necessary logistics.
Refund timing and method
After the return arrives and passes inspection, Wekaape issues the refund within 7 business days to the original payment method in USD (major cards or PayPal). Store credit is available on request. Banks and card issuers may take up to 7 additional business days to post funds. Any currency conversion is handled by your bank or card provider.
Exchanges
Requests for a different size or finish are accepted for 30 days when stock allows. For preference exchanges, Wekaape covers shipping for both the return and the replacement. For issue-based exchanges (damage, defect, or wrong item), shipping is also covered. Replacements ship after the original item is received and inspected; no cross-shipping.
Refused deliveries and undeliverable shipments
If a delivery is refused without prior notice and the carrier reports no damage, Wekaape still coordinates the return and covers carrier charges. Wekaape can reschedule at no cost or issue a refund as described above once the item is back and inspected. If refusal is due to visible carrier damage noted with the driver, Wekaape handles the claim and no re-delivery fees apply.
Taxes, duties, and customs on returns (international)
For eligible returns from the covered regions, Wekaape prepares the re-import documents and pays VAT/GST, duties, brokerage, and customs processing — as long as you use Wekaape’s label and instructions. If you choose an unapproved courier, responsibility for customs charges and any loss or damage shifts to the sender and processing may take longer.
Processing and shipping times (reference)
Most furniture orders prepare to ship in 1–2 business days (Mon–Fri; U.S. public holidays excluded). For typical transit times and delivery behavior, see Wekaape’s Shipping Policy.
