From manufacturing to delivery, we do everything we can to ensure you are happy with your purchase, but we know that sometimes a product may not fulfill a buyer's expectations. We’ve made our return policy as easy as possible. Please see the return agreement below. A valid receipt must be presented by the customer to begin a return or exchange. No exceptions. 

14 day return window.

Please read the following to see our guidelines.

Non-returnable items:

Wind instruments such as melodicas, harmonicas and recorders are non-returnable for sanitary reasons. Books, software, and digital media will not be accepted for returns. Accessories such as strings, straps, capos, etc. must be unopened in order to process a return. All returns are considered exchanges either for other items in the Kalena store or a Gift Card for the amount of the original purchase. Other items such as ukuleles, cases, amps, etc. are all returnable for a full refund within 14 days when factory defects are significantly present. Exchanges can be made within 14 days of purchase only when a valid receipt is presented and the item is still in new condition. All sales are final. Refunds granted by Kalena instruments are issued on Kalena Gift Cards for store credit unless the item is defective. Refunds for defective items will be issued back to the original method of payment.
