Returns

All returns are subject to Vortex Restaurant Equipment approval. No returns will be accepted and no credit will be issued without advance written authorization from Vortex Restaurant Equipment.

Returning An Item

Should you wish to return an item, Vortex Restaurant Equipment will discuss the circumstances of your return request with you. Upon review, Vortex Restaurant Equipment will determine if the item(s) are eligible for return authorization. If deemed so, a written authorization for return will be sent to you by email or regular mail. If you do not receive written authorization for the return, you may not return the item(s). Returned items received by Vortex Restaurant Equipment will not be accepted unless there has been written authorization.

Authorized returns must be received in unused condition, and item(s) must be in original packaging. Vortex Restaurant Equipment will inspect item(s) to determine if they meet the authorized return parameters. Refunds will be credited to you within 10 business days after receiving the returned item(s).

For an authorized return, Vortex Restaurant Equipment may pay for the initial and subsequent return shipping, but this must be agreed upon prior to the return shipping.

All returns due to purchase error on the part of the customer will be charged, in addition to their return shipping cost, a minimum 25% restocking fee, to be deducted from the refund amount.

Any items returned to Vortex Restaurant Equipment without authorization will not be issued a refund/credit and will be shipped back to you at your expense.

• If the exchange is for a more expensive piece of equipment, then a refund will be issued for the exchanged item, and a Sales Order will be made for the new piece of equipment.
• If the exchange is for a less expensive piece of equipment, then a refund will be issued for the exchanged item, and a Sales Order will be made for the new piece of equipment.
