Product Specific Guarantee Details:

 

Rattan Garden Furniture

The guarantees for rattan furniture include protection against structural damage, rust, and fade. The guarantee does not cover natural wear and tear. Rattan products may contract or expand in foreign, extreme temperatures, which is not covered under guarantee. Garden furniture cushions and glass are not covered under guarantee unless they have arrived damaged. We will replace damaged items within 14 days after delivery if the item arrives damaged. These items are not covered by the furniture guarantee.

You should note that rattan weaves can be made up of different colour strands. These variations may look different in your garden depending on how much sunlight is available. Because the furniture is handwoven, there will not be any two identical items.

 

Fabric Garden Furniture

Fabric garden furniture warranties cover damage to structural integrity, rust and colour fade. The guarantee does not cover natural wear and tear. Except for items that arrived damaged, the guarantee does not cover dirt and stains.  We may replace the items if we have been informed of any damage within 14 days of delivery.
