Returns, Changes, Cancellations

Changes, Cancellations and Refunds
Because our products are custom made to your exact specifications, they are not suitable for resale in the ordinary course of business. Therefore, it is important that you are sure of your decisions before you finalize your purchase. We are happy to change or cancel orders as long as you contact us within 24 hours from the date and time the order was submitted to us.

Below are some points about how we handle cancellations and changes:

Since production typically starts the morning after the order is placed, cancellations and changes can only be made for a period of 24 hours. If you cancel your order during this 24 calendar hour period, we will refund your money.

Under no circumstance can we either refund any money or issue any credits for a credit card purchase if the cancellation or change occurs at any time beyond this 24 calendar hour period.

On extremely rare occasions there may be delays caused by out-of-stock materials, shipping delays, temporary factory overload, holidays, or other factors beyond our control. In the event of a known delay, you will be contacted that day.

We reserve the right to reject any order, at our discretion.


You can always contact us for any return question at Finichiblinds@gmail.com.

 

Damages and issues
Please inspect your order upon reception and contact us immediately if the item is defective, damaged or if you receive the wrong item, so that we can evaluate the issue and make it right.

 

Exchanges
The fastest way to ensure you get what you want is to return the item you have, and once the return is accepted, make a separate purchase for the new item.

 

European Union 14 day cooling off period
Notwithstanding the above, if the merchandise is being shipped into the European Union, you have the right to cancel or return your order within 14 days, for any reason and without a justification. As above, your item must be in the same condition that you received it, unworn or unused, with tags, and in its original packaging. You’ll also need the receipt or proof of purchase.

 

Refunds
We will notify you once we’ve received and inspected your return, and let you know if the refund was approved or not. If approved, you’ll be automatically refunded on your original payment method within 10 business days. Please remember it can take some time for your bank or credit card company to process and post the refund too.
If more than 15 business days have passed since we’ve approved your return, please contact us at Finichiblinds@gmail.com.

If you are dissatisfied with your Finichi purchase, please contact us within 15 days of the shipping date. Finichi does not permit returns for refund or exchange on configure-to-order, personalized, or other customized products under any circumstances unless the product arrives defective.

If the product is eligible for return, you must send it back to Finichi unopened in its original packaging. Finichi will issue an exchange or refund to your original method of payment upon receipt. Please include a screenshot of your order and return the product to the Finichi warehouse within 15 days after we approve your return. You will be responsible for any loss or damage to the product during transit, so ensure it is securely packaged in its original, unmarked packaging, including any accessories, manuals, documentation, and registration. Finichi may charge a 15% restocking fee on any opened accessories.

Setting up Your Blinds

Why can’t I connect the remote to the motor?

  • The pairing process has a time constraint. To pair, press and hold the P button on the motor head until it jogs once. You then have 2 seconds to press and hold the STOP button on the desired remote/channel. The blinds will jog twice to confirm successful pairing.

How can I set the limits?

  • After pairing the motor with a channel for the first time, check the direction. To reverse the direction, press UP and DOWN simultaneously. Next, adjust the top limit to your desired position, then press and hold UP and STOP until the motor jogs and beeps. Move the shade to your desired bottom position and repeat the process with DOWN and STOP.

How do I adjust my limit position?

  • Position the shade near the desired limit. For the top limit, press and hold UP and STOP until the motor jogs, then adjust to your preferred position. Press and hold UP and STOP again to record this limit. Repeat the same steps for the bottom limit using DOWN and STOP.

Note: Opening the limit setting function takes longer than closing it intentionally.

Why might a motor lose its limits?

  • The battery is depleted.
  • The motor was accidentally reset to factory settings.

Can I hide unused channels?

  • Yes, on a multi-channel remote, you can adjust it to display only the active channels. For example, if there are 6 motors, you can set it as an 6-channel remote. To do this, press the left and right buttons together for 3 seconds, then press the STOP button.

What is channel 0?

  • Channel 0 allows all motors programmed to the same remote to respond simultaneously. For instance, pressing the up button on channel 0 will raise all blinds linked to that remote.

Why can’t I program my motor to another channel?

  • Before a motor can receive programming from an additional channel or transmitter, the limits must be established, placing the motor in normal operational mode.
