All items must be paid in full before delivery may be scheduled.

Your merchandise must be delivered within 30 days of your order(s) being available/in stock.
Orders may be rescheduled once if your merchandise has not been loaded for delivery without a fee. Cancellations or changes to you delivery appointment must be made 36 hours prior to delivery.

Delivery Charge

Delivery charges are not refundable if you decide to return your merchandise. Credit memos will reflect a credit for all merchandise returned with the exception of the delivery charge. The new sales order written for your reselection will include your newly selected merchandise and a delivery charge.
If you cancel/reschedule an order less than 36 hours before the day of delivery, you will forfeit your delivery charge and be required to pay an additional full handling fee.
Delays: Approximate delivery dates are based on standard manufacturer lead times and are subject to change. Gustafson’s cannot be held responsible for delays in transportation, fabric shortages, production or other acts that may result in a delay of a Customer’s order. Failure to deliver merchandise by the estimated delivery date will not give the Customer the right to cancel the order without a 30% restocking fee.

Delivery Preparation

Rooms and hallways should be cleared for delivery. Our drivers will not move existing furniture; however, they will assist in positioning your new furniture.
Drivers will not move, setup, disconnect electronic devices including but not limited to TV sets, audio equipment, speakers, and cable boxes.
We offer mattress removal to customers for a small fee. The mattress must be sanitary and unsoiled. It is at the delivery driver’s discretion whether a mattress is suitable for removal. We do not remove any other types of mattresses or furniture.
To insure the safety of our drivers, snow or any other pedestrian obstacles must be removed by you before our drivers can accomplish the delivery.
Difficult and/or unsafe deliveries (such as window entry) and deliveries above the third floor (without access to an elevator) will not be done by our delivery drivers. Hoists and balcony deliveries will not be attempted under any circumstances.

Service Policy

To assist our customers with all service claims, please call (888) 449-0186 and a representative will assist you.

We service all products (excluding accessories, clearance and As-Is items) for one year against manufacturers’ defects. After the one year warranty, we will assist you in obtaining parts from the manufacturer.

We only service in our delivery areas.
Relocated Furniture: Damage that may have occurred due to improper handling of the merchandise by moving it, will void Gustafson's one year warranty.
Extended Warranties: Gustafson’s strictly adheres to manufacturers’ warranties. Extended manufacturers’ warranties that exceed one year will be subject to transportation, labor and service fees.
Manufacturer Defects: Product warranties vary by manufacturer. Gustafson’s will help facilitate service based on the terms and conditions of the manufacturer’s warranty. Gustafson’s will provide service at no charge for the first 90 days after purchase in your home. After 90 days of the product being in your home, inspection fees, delivery fees, and technician labor costs may apply.
Outside Manufacturers’ Warranty: Gustafson’s will provide a technician referral in your area.
Upholstery/Area Rugs: Dye lots and swatches seen at the store may differ slightly from actual dye lots on delivered manufacturers’ products. Gustafson’s is not responsible for any of these dye lot variances. Upholstered fabrics are warranted against defective material or workmanship for one year from the date of purchase under normal care and use. This warranty does not cover fading, pilling or shrinkage and is not valid where there is evidence of heavy soiling or abuse. Fabric damage or fabric failure due to improper cleaning or animal use is also excluded from the warranty. Consult your protection plan for proper cleaning instructions. The fabric warranty will not be honored if any evidence of animal use is found.
Leather is a natural material and surface marks and variances in color show that the leather is genuine top grain. Gustafson’s cannot be responsible for these natural variances in leather.
Accessories: Carefully inspect all pictures, lamps, accessories and area rugs before you take them with you. Accessory items are not serviced.
Deferred Billing Plan: During service, your billing plan remains in effect. Your original promotion period deadline does not change. Monthly payments must be made during service/exchanges on deferred billing plans to avoid late charges or interest.

Return and Refund Policy

7 Day Furniture Return Policy: Gustafson’s provides a 7 day return policy after delivery or pickup on all qualifying furniture in its original condition. Returning or reselecting any furniture will result in a 30% restocking fee and an additional delivery pick up fee. After 7 days, the merchandise can no longer be returned or exchanged. Returned furniture must be back to Gustafson’s within 7 days of the original delivery or pickup date to avoid the disqualification of your return.
Special Orders: Full payment is required for special order merchandise. You have two days to cancel your special order from the time you place your order in our store. However, after this two day cancellation window, there will be a 30% restocking fee that is neither refundable nor transferable. After delivery or pickup of the merchandise, special order merchandise is non-returnable.
Damaged or Defective: Any damaged or defective furniture needs to be reported within 48 hours. We will service all damaged or defective furniture (excluding accessories, clearance or As-Is items) in accordance with our warranty policies.

Non-Refundable Services: Delivery charges, and any other service(s) provided on behalf of Gustafson’s are non-refundable once the service is in progress.
Refunds: Your refund will automatically go back to the original form of payment used for the purchase. In the event you used multiple forms of payment, your refund may be issued across all payment methods used. If your order is split between any form of payment and Gustafson's financing, your refund amount is first applied to your Gustafson's financing account. Refunds to a credit card typically take 3-5 days. Refunds for payments made via cash or personal check will be mailed in the form of a check and may take up to 10 business days.

Special Order Merchandise

Having a one of a kind item made for you can make your room special and unique, and we are glad to assist you in beautifying your home. Below are some important things you need to know about your special order.

A special order is:

An item not displayed on the floor.
An item not stocked in our warehouse.
An item displayed in our store, but available in a different color, size, or finish.

Our 7 Day Return Policy does not apply to special orders. However, factory warranties and Gustafson's one-year service policies do apply. A 30% fee will apply to all returned or cancelled special order merchandise – no exceptions.

You have 2 days to cancel your special order from the time you place your order in our store. However, after this 2 day cancellation window, the 30% deposit is neither refundable nor transferable. After delivery or pickup of the merchandise, special order merchandise is non-returnable.

If your merchandise does not fit in your room (down the hallway, up the stairs, etc.) it cannot be returned since our manufacturers will not allow returns. Do not special order if you feel this may be a problem. Please take accurate measurements before ordering.

Dye lots on fabric samples may differ in shade from those actually delivered by the manufacturer. Gustafson’s is not responsible for any dye lot differences.

If an item arrives damaged, our extensively trained, skilled craftsmen can restore the piece(s) to original condition. Furniture manufacturers, like auto and computer manufacturers, repair/replace component parts and do not replace the entire item.
