Coleman Customer Service, Warranty, Parts & Reviews

Coleman customers may need help with a tent, cooler, sleeping bag, camping stove, lantern, chair, canopy, replacement part, warranty claim, Coleman.com order, return, damaged product, or licensed Coleman product.

Coleman Customer Service Contact Information

Customer-service hours update: Coleman currently lists phone and chat availability Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM Eastern Time. The older 8:00 AM-5:00 PM Central Time hours previously shown on this CustomerServiceNumbers.com page should be replaced.

Best Coleman Support Route by Issue

Information to Have Before Contacting Coleman

Coleman support is easier when the exact product and purchase can be identified.

Gather:

  • Product name
  • Model number
  • Date code when applicable
  • Purchase date
  • Retailer or website where the product was purchased
  • Proof of purchase
  • Delivery information when applicable
  • Description of the problem
  • Photographs of the entire product
  • Close-up photographs of the damaged or defective area
  • Previous Coleman case number when applicable

Coleman’s online warranty process can also request photographs showing the model number and date code.

Do not discard a product involved in a warranty claim until Coleman provides instructions about what to do with it.

Coleman does not use one warranty period for every outdoor product.

Current U.S. limited warranty periods include:

  • Standard hard coolers: 1 year
  • Coleman Pro hard coolers: 10 years
  • Standard soft coolers: 1 year
  • Coleman Pro soft coolers: 3 years

Check the current warranty chart for the exact product because exceptions apply and warranty terms can change.

What Does the Coleman Warranty Cover?

Coleman’s current limited warranty generally covers qualifying manufacturing defects during the applicable warranty period when the product has been used normally and cared for according to Coleman’s instructions.

Coleman lists exclusions that can include:

  • Normal wear and tear
  • Cosmetic scratches, dents, scuffs, stains or fading that do not impair function
  • Misuse or abuse
  • Improper cleaning or neglect
  • Accidents
  • Unauthorized alterations
  • Fire or theft
  • Commercial use

Warranty eligibility depends on the exact product, purchase date, defect, and warranty terms.

How to File a Coleman Warranty Claim

U.S. consumers can use Coleman’s online Warranty Claim Form.

The process generally asks for:

  1. Customer contact information.
  2. Product category and model number.
  3. Description of the defect or problem.
  4. Purchase date and retailer.
  5. Product date code when applicable.
  6. Photographs of the product and defect.
  7. Proof of purchase.
  8. Additional information needed to validate the claim.

Coleman states that customers can also call 1-800-835-3278 Monday-Friday from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM Eastern Time.

Proof of purchase and delivery may be required to show when and where the product was purchased.

Coleman advises customers to keep the product until specific instructions are provided.

Coleman Licensed Products Have Different Support

Not every product displaying the Coleman name is manufactured or warranted directly by The Coleman Company.

Coleman’s current warranty information specifically identifies categories that can be made by licensed partners, including:

  • Apparel
  • ATVs
  • UTVs
  • Go-karts
  • Home textiles
  • HVAC products
  • Optics
  • Pet gear
  • Pools
  • Inflatable spas
  • Propane cylinders
  • Recreational vehicles
  • Repellents
  • Solar panels

These products may have different customer-service numbers, manufacturers, warranties, and replacement-parts procedures.

Use Coleman’s official Licensed Product Support page before calling ordinary Coleman customer service about one of these products.

Coleman Replacement Parts

Coleman provides replacement-parts resources for several major product categories, including:

  • Tent parts
  • Grill and stove parts
  • Cooler parts
  • Lighting parts

When looking for a replacement part, use the exact model number rather than ordering based only on the product’s appearance.

Older Coleman products can have multiple versions or production dates that use different parts.

Coleman also provides information for legacy and hard-to-find parts through replacement-parts partners.

If a part failure appears to be a warranty defect, contact Coleman before purchasing the replacement yourself.

Coleman.com Return Policy

Unused products purchased directly from Coleman.com can currently be returned in their original condition and packaging within 60 days of the order date.

Important conditions include:

  • An advance Return Authorization is required.
  • The merchandise must reach Coleman within the applicable 60-day period.
  • Eligible refunds are issued to the original payment method.
  • Original shipping charges are not refunded.
  • Final Sale products cannot be returned.

Products purchased from Walmart, Amazon, Target, a sporting-goods store, or another retailer are generally subject to that retailer’s ordinary return policy rather than Coleman.com’s direct-purchase return process.

A manufacturer warranty claim is separate from a retailer return.

Coleman Order Tracking and Shipping

Coleman.com customers can check Order Status using the order confirmation number and ZIP code or through a Coleman account.

Coleman states that warehouse processing normally requires approximately one to two business days before shipment, although high-volume periods can take longer.

Current published shipping options include standard and expedited methods, with availability depending on the product and destination.

If an order arrives damaged or is not delivered, use the dedicated damaged or undelivered order option on Coleman’s official Contact Us page.

Keep:

  • Order confirmation
  • Tracking information
  • Shipping carton
  • Product packaging
  • Photographs of damage

until the issue is resolved.

Coleman Lantern and Stove Repair Service

Coleman continues to operate a Flat Rate Service program for certain lanterns and camping stoves.

Eligible products include various:

  • Dual-fuel lanterns
  • Dual-fuel stoves
  • Kerosene lanterns
  • Propane lanterns
  • Propane stoves

Current flat-rate prices listed by Coleman are:

  • Liquid-fuel lantern: $55
  • Liquid-fuel stove: $55
  • Propane lantern: $40
  • Propane stove: $40

The service includes labor, required repair parts, and return shipping but does not include cosmetic restoration such as painting or polishing.

Coleman currently advises allowing approximately 8-10 weeks for service and return shipping.

The service address is:

The Coleman Company, Inc.
Attn: Service Dept
3600 N. Hydraulic
Wichita, KS 67219

Before shipping a stove or lantern, download and follow Coleman’s current service form.

Coleman specifically instructs customers to drain liquid fuel before shipping and not to ship propane cylinders. Lantern customers should also follow Coleman’s instructions about removing certain components.

Coleman Product Safety

Camping products can involve fuel, fire, carbon monoxide, electricity, pressure, water, or other hazards.

Always follow the instructions and warnings supplied with the exact product.

For stoves, lanterns, grills, heaters, and similar fuel-burning equipment:

  • Use only approved fuel and cylinders.
  • Follow ventilation requirements.
  • Never ignore signs of leaking fuel.
  • Stop using damaged fuel-system components.
  • Do not modify safety components.

For tents, canopies, water products, sleeping products, and other outdoor gear, follow the product-specific instructions and weather limitations.

If a Coleman product appears unsafe or has suffered a serious failure, stop using it until the problem has been evaluated.

Who Owns Coleman?

Coleman is part of Newell Brands, a publicly traded consumer-products company whose portfolio also includes brands such as Rubbermaid, Sharpie, Graco, Yankee Candle, Oster, Contigo, and others.

Newell Brands currently lists its global headquarters as:

Newell Brands
5 Concourse Parkway
Atlanta, GA 30328
770-418-7000

Newell Brands opened its current Sandy Springs headquarters in 2025.

The Newell Brands corporate office is not the preferred route for an ordinary Coleman warranty claim, replacement part, Coleman.com order, or product question. Use Coleman Consumer Service at 1-800-835-3278 first.

Is Coleman Still Based in Wichita?

Wichita remains an important Coleman service location, and Coleman continues to publish the 3600 N. Hydraulic address for its lantern and stove repair department.

However, that address should not be described as the current global headquarters of Coleman’s parent company.

Coleman’s parent company, Newell Brands, currently lists its headquarters in Atlanta, Georgia.

For repairs being sent to Wichita, follow Coleman’s current shipping instructions rather than mailing an unrelated complaint or return to the repair department.

How to Escalate a Coleman Customer Service Complaint

If the first Coleman contact does not resolve the issue:

  1. Gather the model number, date code, receipt, photographs, and previous case information.
  2. Confirm whether Coleman or a licensed manufacturer is responsible for the product.
  3. Call Coleman at 1-800-835-3278 or use the official contact form.
  4. Clearly explain the defect, order issue, missing part, warranty problem, or other concern.
  5. State the resolution you are requesting.
  6. Ask for a case number when available.
  7. Keep emails, photographs, receipts, shipping tracking, and warranty documentation.
  8. Request additional review if the first response does not address the issue.
  9. Do not send a product to Coleman unless you have received the appropriate return, warranty, or repair instructions.

For merchandise purchased from another retailer, keep the retailer involved when the problem may still qualify for its return, exchange, or refund policy.

Coleman Customer Service Reviews and Complaints

CustomerServiceNumbers.com currently displays 2.6 out of 5 stars based on 5 Coleman reviews.

The five visible reviews are older submissions dated between 2014 and 2018.

They describe several different experiences:

  • July 2018: A customer complained about the ice retention and warped lid of a Coleman cooler and said a warranty replacement was not provided without a receipt.
  • January 2016: A customer asked for help finding and replacing a battery in a Coleman CPX6 Dual Lantern.
  • June 2015: A customer asked what type of non-stick coating was used on a Coleman steel griddle.
  • June 2014: A customer described receiving the wrong replacement canopy cover more than once and complained about return shipping, follow-up, and not receiving the expected refund or correct part.
  • May 2014: A customer asked for help with an inflatable Coleman boat that was losing air from two chambers.

These reviews provide historical examples involving warranty documentation, replacement parts, product questions, product defects, and customer-service follow-up.

However, all five reviews are approximately eight to twelve years old and represent a very small sample. They should not be treated as evidence of Coleman’s current overall customer-service performance or product quality.

Customers who have recently contacted Coleman can leave a review below describing the product involved, support route used, response received, and whether the problem was resolved.

Coleman Just Another Money Grubbing Company

July 20, 2018

We bought a 62 t Coleman extreme 5 cooler last September feom Walmart. We used it for a day trip and then used it recently to go to the beach. The ice lasted a couple hours and cooler was full of water. The water didn’t even stay cool. Today, I called customer service and was told this cooler was made in 2012 ( we bought it end of season “brand new” 2017. Of course, without receipt, Coleman will not replace. As we spoke to representative, answering her questions, we notice both sides of cooler lid is warped and a gap. We asked how does Coleman allow their products to sit wherever the retailer chooses, go through being moved, possibly banged around (in our case, 5 years) or even other heavy products on top and allow them to sell A sub par product and not stand behind it? That question couldn’t be answered. We have been a user of Coleman products for many years. We had an air mattress years ago that was defective and wouldn’t hold air now this ridiculous cooler. Since Coleman decided to not stand up for their customer, we will be buying their competitors brand from now on. As their products we already own, we will trash them instead of selling it even gifting this taking away just a small

Part of their advertising. You won’t see us sporting any Coleman products and will make awards to anyone or any site our experience. Thanks for nothing, Coleman! Are Just another money grubbing company?

Coleman Customer Service Issue

June 16, 2014

6/15/14 Last fall I ordered a replacement cover for my 10X10 Coleman shade canopy. They sent me 8X8. I had to pay $14.00 shipping to return. After many E-mails, phone calls, and weeks,(they said they did not receive the wrong one back)

After sending them proof, with their warehouse employee signature from (UPS) and more E-mails. they sent me another top. Same thing 8X8, after many E-mails. This one was not sent back. Didn’t seem right to have to pay freight again. Received the same thing 8X8. This time I sent them a video of the top, from one end to the other. Videoed the tag that said 10X10. Laid tape along the side of the top showing 8X8. After more Emails. I have never heard from them again. Never received the correct top, nor my money back, nor an apology. Every time I talked to the rep. helping me (haha), he treated me like a liar. I will never buy another Coleman product, nor recommend them.
