Color Disclaimer:
Please note that due to the inherent variations in monitors and web browsers, color samples displayed on our website may appear differently on different screens. While we make every effort to ensure that our online color samples closely resemble the actual product, we cannot guarantee an exact match. If color accuracy is crucial, we strongly recommend ordering a fabric sample, if available, before placing your order.
Disclaimer Regarding Website Errors & SKU Pricing Errors:
At Medfirst Homecare, we make every effort to ensure the accuracy of descriptions, dimensions, images, and prices within our database. In the unlikely event of a pricing error, we are committed to promptly notifying the customer. If a pricing error occurs and is applicable to your order, we will promptly refund your transaction. Please be aware that Medfirst Homecare reserves the right to determine whether to supply a product in such cases. Additionally, if a quote is issued.
SHIPPING UPGRADES
Can I Upgrade My Shipping?
Yes, you most certainly can. Please keep in mind that if your product is custom or not “in stock,” the expedited delivery will take place once the product is ready for shipment. Upgrading your shipping standards does not speed up the production process of your equipment.
RETAIL STORE SALES
Any items purchased from one of our retail stores should be returned to that store. If the item was purchased online the return should be initiated and approved through the website.
