6.3.4. Harleen McLean Biophillic will not be liable for the delay in installation caused by late or failed delivery of your items.

We therefore recommend that decorators are not booked in advance of you receiving your goods.
6.4. Import Duty:

7.7. Defective Products:
7.7.1. On delivery, please check the Products carefully for any possible defects. For Furniture orders you will be asked to sign a delivery note that confirms you are happy with the condition of your order.
7.7.2. If you believe that any of our Products may be defective or of unsatisfactory quality, please notify us at your earliest convenience. We will need to investigate your claim before we are able to process a return for the damaged goods, so please refrain from carrying out any work on said products (i.e. wallpapering or upholstering) prior to our inspection. Please note that Harleen McLeanBiophillicmay not be liable if this request is not adhered to.
7.7.3. We ask that you take reasonable care of the Products while your claim is being investigated. Please do not return any Products which you believe may be defective before contacting us.

7.7.5. If all Products confirmed defective constitute the entire order or if all Products were faulty or damaged, the original delivery charge will be reimbursed.
7.7.6. The term “defective products” does not cover wear and tear, neglect, abuse or misuse of your goods, loss or damage by fire, smoke, explosion, lighting, sunlight, infestation by animals or boring insects, theft or loss, or accidental damage caused by you or a third party.
8.1. Every effort is made to ensure that the Products we supply correspond as closely as possible to the samples displayed online, but there may be variations because natural materials have unique characteristics. No responsibility can be accepted for these variations, which all add to the uniqueness of our Products, including but not limited to the following:
8.2. Our wallpaper is printed to order, so there may be slight colour variations from batch to batch. Therefore, we recommend ordering all the rolls you’ll need in one go – to work out how many that will be, please contact our Customer Services team for assistance. Please note that our Fabric can also vary in colour between batches.
8.3. There is a 3% allowance on fabric alignment.
8.4. All measurements are approximate. Please allow +/- 2 cm variance on sizes stated.
8.5. Much of our Furniture is individually hand-finished and there may be differences between batches. These will be more apparent if orders are placed at different times.
8.6. As part of the design, some Furniture and Upholstery is hand-finished to appear distressed. This will vary between Products and is not a defect.
8.7. We reserve the right to make any change to the internal specifications of our Products or minor external changes where necessary.
9.1. Many of our Fabrics feature natural characteristics (such as slubs, creasing or pile shading) which make them wonderfully unique. Please take the time to understand these characteristics so that you can select a Fabric that is suitable for you.
9.2. We make every effort to display the colours of Products shown on the Website as accurately as possible. However, due to variations in monitors, we cannot guarantee that your display of colour will be accurate. We recommend ordering a sample of the wallpaper and/or Fabric colour you’re interested in to ensure complete satisfaction.
9.3. As all upholstery can be affected by light and heat from the sun, we recommend that it is positioned away from direct sunlight to protect it from fading and premature ageing.
10.1. Wood grain: Our Products are designed to highlight the natural beauty of wood and will often show interesting features such as knots, grain shading and medullary rays where wood is cut across the grain. These will often vary so that no two Products are the same and yours is truly unique.
10.2. Light and heat: All furniture can be affected by light and this can alter its colour over time. We recommend that it is positioned away from direct sunlight and heat to help maintain its colour for longer.
11.1. Harleen McLean Biophillic gift vouchers are available with values ranging from £25 to £500. Multiple gift vouchers can be bought to create a unique value if required. Gift vouchers are valid for 12 months from the date of purchase.
11.2. Our gift vouchers cannot be redeemed or exchanged for cash. They are non-refundable and can only be redeemed at www.harleenmclean.com using their unique serial number.
