Terms of Service
Welcome to www.firstobuy.com. This website is wholly operated by HONGKONG KATE LIMITED, which is responsible for all content, product sales, and after-sales services. This company is the sole operating entity of this platform, and the website and the operating company share a direct subordinate relationship under the same legal entity. All service terms, product usage guidelines, and user rights protections are uniformly formulated, implemented, and managed by HONGKONG KATE LIMITED. We understand that a clear and transparent service policy is the foundation for building trust with our users. Therefore, we have established this Service Policy to cover core areas including product descriptions, terms of use, scope of liability, and applicable law, so that you may fully understand your rights and obligations before using our website and purchasing our products.
I. Product Descriptions and Quality Commitment
Firstobuy focuses on the niche category of knitted round cushions within home furnishings. All products are photographed, measured, and described truthfully by our operations team. We commit that all information provided on the product pages—including but not limited to diameter dimensions, thickness, material composition, weaving techniques, colour presentation, and recommended usage scenarios—is based on the actual physical products.
-
Size description: The diameter and thickness of each knitted round cushion are clearly listed on the product page. Due to manual measurement and the natural elasticity of knitted textiles, a slight tolerance of approximately 1–2 cm between the actual size and the stated dimensions is reasonable. Should you have specific size requirements, you are welcome to contact us in advance via customer@firstobuy.com, and our staff will provide you with more detailed measurement references.
-
Colour description: We make every effort to photograph our products under standard lighting conditions using professional equipment to accurately reproduce true colours. However, due to variations in brightness, colour temperature, and calibration across different display devices, minor colour differences between the actual product and what you see on screen may occur. HONGKONG KATE LIMITED recommends viewing product images on multiple devices or referring to the multi-angle real shots and styling photos provided on the product page for a more comprehensive colour perception.
-
Materials and craftsmanship: Our knitted round cushions are made from breathable, skin-friendly textile materials, featuring uniform and tightly woven craftsmanship, with reinforced edges for enhanced durability. The product page clearly indicates the primary material composition and recommended cleaning and care methods. If you have specific material allergies or sensitivities, please carefully review the material information before use, and feel free to contact us via email for further confirmation.
-
Product usage tips: The knitted round cushions sold on this website are intended as home decorative accessories, suitable for daily sitting, supporting, decorating, or light floor use. They are not recommended for exposure to extreme heat, high humidity, or greasy environments, nor should they be used as support pads for heavy furniture or in outdoor weather conditions. Proper usage helps extend the product's lifespan and maintain its appearance and functionality.
HONGKONG KATE LIMITED is responsible for the accuracy of product descriptions. If the item you receive significantly differs from the description on the product page, please refer to the after-sales protection provisions in this Service Policy and contact us. We will handle the matter appropriately based on the actual circumstances.
