How to Return or Exchange an Item
To return an item, simply fill out the Exchange/Return form printed on the back of the packing slip enclosed with your package. Then return that form to us, along with your item(s), by either using the UPS return label included (fee will be deducted from your refund/exchange), or using the carrier of your choice. If you no longer have your packing slip, please contact Customer Service at 1-800-634-9484.
EASY RETURNS
If your purchase qualifies for an easy return, a return label has been provided with your shipment. Simply follow these easy steps:
Complete the exchange/return section on the reverse side of your packing slip and include it with the items you are sending back.
Affix the UPS return label (located on the front of the pack slip) over the original shipping label on your package and reseal it for shipment. Retain the UPS/ARS tracking number for your records.
Drop the package with a UPS driver or UPS Store.
If you are returning merchandise for a refund or exchanging an item, the fee for using this label is $8.95, which will be deducted from your total refund. If you are returning an item because it is damaged or defective, there will be NO CHARGE for using the label. If you prefer, you may use the standard return label on the packing slip and pay for your own shipping via the carrier of your choice.

I had been in the market for a step chest for some time but did not want to spend a fortune for one. The package arrived as scheduled. Nothing missing and all the pieces undamaged. It took my husband about 3 hours to put together and he did this mostly without a helping hand. It is not difficult but just takes time. He too was impressed (and surprised) on the quality.
I would recommend this to a friend!

When you enter my home, you see a large foyer and around the corner of it is my kitchen with a small pantry the first thing you see. They could have widened the pantry by making the foyer smaller, but they didn't, so I am using the Reversible Tansu Step Chest as an extension of my pantry and turning part of it into a butler's pantry with my large kitchen items on the steps. My husband put it together while I fetched the pieces. It took a long time, but was way worth the effort. The wood is beautiful, and it holds a lot more things than you think it would. I would recommend this to anyone who needs to store things without tearing down walls to do it. It's a gorgeous piece; love it!
