What is your returns policy?
Please contact your local provider or internet dealer from whom you purchased the Karman product from to find out what their return policy is and how to process a return. If you purchased online, you can often find the providers policy on their respective website. You may refer to our Return Policy if you purchased directly from Karman Healthcare Inc.
Products purchased from an authorized reseller, we are unable to process returns directly since we do not have your funds. RMAs are only issued to dealers that have an active account with Karman Healthcare.
