IKEA WARRANTY
How long does the IKEA warranty last?
This warranty is valid for 5 years from the
date of purchase/delivery of your
appliance from an IKEA store. You will
need to show your original receipt as proof
of purchase. Any servicing carried out
during the warranty period does not
extend the warranty period.
Who provides the service?
The assistance service chosen and
authorised by IKEA will provide the service
through its network of authorised Service
Partners.
What does this warranty cover?
The warranty covers any manufacturing
defects (functional defects), from the date
of purchase/delivery of the appliance. This
warranty applies to domestic use only. Any
exceptions are described under "What is
not covered by the warranty?". During the
warranty period, repair costs
(spare parts, labour and travel costs of
technicians) will be borne
by the assistance service, provided that
access to the equipment for repair work
does not involve any special costs. These
conditions are in accordance with EU
directives (No. 99/44/EC) and local
regulations. Any replaced components
become the property of IKEA.
How will IKEA solve the problem?
The assistance service appointed by IKEA
to carry out the intervention will examine
the product and decide, at its sole
discretion, whether it is covered by the
warranty or not. The IKEA Assistance
Service or its authorised Service Partner,
through their respective Service Centres,
at their sole discretion, will repair the
defective product or replace it with an
equal product or one of equivalent value.
