Coleman Company allows returns within 60 days of purchase when items are returned by mail with advance authorization. You must have your receipt and are responsible for all return shipping costs. Refunds are issued to your original form of payment.

How returns work

All returns require advance Return Authorization obtained through the Start a Return form on Coleman.com or via your order history in My Account. Once approved, you will receive an email confirmation with detailed instructions, an RMA label, and an optional shipping label. Pack your item securely using original packaging or your own, insert the printed Return Authorization paperwork inside the box, and ship via a carrier that provides package tracking. Keep your tracking number for your records.

Exclusions and restrictions

Coleman does not accept returns on final sale items, replacement parts, or products not originally purchased from Coleman.com (those must be returned to the original retailer). If an item is damaged after the 60-day return window, Coleman provides warranty information as an alternative option.

Refunds

Refunds are issued to your original form of payment. The facts do not specify the refund processing time after the company receives your return.
