To qualify for a full refund, items should come back to us in like-new condition.

- In the original retail box with all accessories, manuals, and packaging
- Robotic cleaners rinsed, dried, and neatly repacked before shipping

How to start a return
Five simple steps — most returns are set up in minutes.
Request your return
Go to our Contact Form within 30 days of purchase. Provide your Order # and a detailed reason for the return so we can help resolve it quickly.
Get your authorization
We'll reply with packing tips and a Return Authorization, valid for 14 days.
Label the box
Clearly mark the Return Authorization on the outside of the shipping box.
Ship it back
Use a trackable, insured carrier of your choice. Many customers use discounted labels from services like PirateShip.com. We don't charge restocking fees — the only cost on a return is the shipping.
Track to delivery
You're responsible until the item is scanned as delivered to our warehouse, so please insure your shipment.
