General Warranty Conditions

The IKEA Everyday Quality Limited Warranties last for the number of years stated in the specific text for each product, starting from the date of purchase.

What will IKEA do to correct the problem?
IKEA will examine the product and decide, at its sole discretion, if it's covered under the limited warranty. IKEA through its own service operations or authorized service partner, will then, at its choice, either repair the defective product or replace it with the same or comparable product. In these cases, IKEA will pay the costs of the repairs, spare parts, labor and travel for repair staff the will incur, provided that the product is accessible for repair without IKEA incurring additional expenditure to gain access. This does not apply in any cases where repair work has not been authorized by IKEA (or its authorized service partner). Replaced parts become the property of IKEA. If the item is no longer sold by IKEA, IKEA will provide an appropriate replacement. IKEA will decide, in its sole discretion, what constitutes an appropriate replacement.

Conditions for the Limited Warranties
The limited warranties are valid from the original date of purchase of the product. In order to rely on this limited warranty, the original receipt is required as proof of purchase from the original purchaser.
The limited warranties do not apply to products that have been stored or assembled incorrectly, used inappropriately, abused, misused, altered or cleaned with wrong cleaning methods or wrong cleaning products. The limited warranties do not apply to normal wear and tear, cuts or scratches, or damage caused by impact or accidents, or in the case of PAX/KOMPLEMENT and IKEA Kitchens, where the product has been moved. The limited warranties do not apply if products have been placed outdoors or in a humid environment.

Coverage terminates if the original purchaser sells or otherwise transfers the IKEA product. Whirpool, the original manufacturer of the "For IKEA from Whirpool" appliances will provide the service through it's own service operations or authorized service partner network.

Care Instructions:
To be able to claim the limited warranty you need to follow the specific care instructions for every product. You will find all care instructions with or on the product.

General legal rights:
Some States and Provinces do not allow the limitation or exclusion of incidental or consequential damage, so this limitation or exclusion may not apply to you. This limited warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also have other rights that vary from country to country, province to province or state to state.
