Our appliances come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993. You are entitled to a replacement or refund for a substantial failure and for compensation for any reasonably foreseeable loss or damage arising as a result of the appliance's failure.

In the first instance, you should call Customer Service New Zealand on 0800 245 700. The Company will create and retain a computer record of your application. The Company will bear any expenses incurred for warranty claims, excluding the cost of transport of the appliance for service or the service agents travelling costs to and from your home if you live outside the service area of the Company or one of its service agents.
