FAULTY / DEFECTIVE ITEMS

Unless stated our warranty is 12 months, where this conflicts with the manufacturers warranty the manufacturers warranty will take precedence.

To return faulty goods please follow the ‘How to Return an Item’ guidelines below.

Faulty goods must be returned to us at your expense. We may make certain exceptions if a large item is found to be damaged upon delivery. All items should be checked immediately upon receipt.

We will repair or replace faulty goods at the manufacturer’s discretion. Abuse or misuse is not covered by warranty. Please remember that your warranty is against manufacturing defects only. Items found to be misused will incur repair charges and shipping charges.

A reasonable amount of time must be allowed for us to check goods that have been returned as faulty. The exact amount of time will depend on the item.

Defective items usually require BladeRight Cleaning Supplies & Services to examine and in most cases to send the item back to the original suppliers/manufacturers for further examination. Once the defective item is then received we will then wait upon a report for the malfunction. If it is found that the defect is due to a manufacturing issue, then a new or repaired product will be sent to yourself free of charge (excluding your postage expenses)
However if it is found that the malfunction is due to improper use/abuse or any user error, then it will void the warranty and no exchange will be offered. However whenever possible, a choice of repairing the item will be offered.
