Fantastic Furniture delivered me the wrong bed model to my new place, and it didn’t even come with assembly instructions—just a pile of parts I couldn’t use. I spent hours on hold, got late callbacks, and still didn’t get a clear fix. When the product isn’t what you ordered, the return should be simple: collect the incorrect bed and process the full refund. - Jan

My Fantastic Furniture order arrived cracked and broken, which made it unusable from day one. I tried calling and emailing customer care and got nothing back, so the return process dragged while I sat with damaged furniture in my house. I wasn’t trying to argue—I just wanted a full refund for items that turned up broken and clearly weren’t fit for purpose. - Natalie

I bought the Dahlia Bed Frame With Rattan from Fantastic Furniture and found damaged parts during assembly, so the bed couldn’t even be used. It’s frustrating because you only discover it once you’re mid-build and your room is in pieces. I asked for a clean resolution—replace the damaged parts or refund it—because a return shouldn’t require weeks of back-and-forth. - Michelle

I ordered bedside tables from Fantastic Furniture and the colour didn’t match what was described online, which threw off the whole look I was buying them for. It’s hard to trust a product listing when what arrives is visibly different. I didn’t want a workaround or store credit—I just wanted to return them and get a full refund since they weren’t what was promised. - Fatima

Return FAQs

What is Fantastic Furniture’s change-of-mind return policy in Australia?

Fantastic Furniture offers a 30-day change-of-mind return if the item is unused, undamaged, and still in resellable condition. The 30-day window runs from when you receive the item, and you’ll need proof of purchase plus photo ID to return it. If the product has been assembled, used, or is missing parts, Fantastic Furniture may decline the return, so it’s worth checking condition requirements before you organise transport.

What items can’t be returned to Fantastic Furniture for change of mind?

Fantastic Furniture excludes certain products from change-of-mind returns, including mattresses (unless faulty), made-to-order furniture, as-is or clearance items, and some online exclusives or seasonal products. Opened bedding items like mattress protectors are also excluded. These exclusions don’t remove your rights for faulty goods, but they do matter for “I changed my mind” returns, so confirm the category before you try to return it.

How do you return a bulky Fantastic Furniture item, and who pays pickup fees?

Fantastic Furniture returns can be done in-store for free, or you can arrange pickup for bulky items, which usually costs money for change-of-mind returns. Pickup fees are similar to delivery costs and may be paid upfront or deducted from your refund. If you arrange your own courier, you’re responsible for cost and safe transit. For faulty or damaged items, Fantastic Furniture covers return or pickup costs, so contact Customer Care first.

How long do Fantastic Furniture refunds take, and what gets deducted?

Fantastic Furniture refunds go back to your original payment method, with in-store returns typically refunded immediately after inspection. For pickups or online returns, refunds are usually processed after inspection within 5–10 business days, with BNPL platforms like Afterpay or PayPal sometimes taking longer to show funds. For change-of-mind returns, delivery and assembly fees are not refunded, and pickup fees may be deducted, but faulty-item refunds include all fees paid.
