WARRANTY TERMS

Blokker B.V. provides a 2-year warranty on all defects that are the result of hidden defects and that make the appliance unsuitable for normal use. The warranty starts from the moment of purchase; therefore, keep the proof of purchase carefully.

During the warranty period, any manufacturing and/or material defects will be rectified free of charge, either by repair, replacement of parts, or exchange of the appliance. Repair will only be carried out under warranty if it is convincingly demonstrated (based on your purchase receipt) that the date the complaint was lodged falls within the warranty period.

The warranty is void if the defect was caused by damage resulting from an accident, improper use, neglect (e.g., not cleaning properly), or if interventions have been carried out or repairs have been performed outside the Blokker B.V. service workshop (except for disassembly, as stated in the user manual). The warranty is also not valid for connection to incorrect mains voltage, failure to follow the user manual, and normal wear and tear of the appliance.

Blokker B.V. cannot be held liable for material damage or personal accidents resulting from connection in violation of local safety regulations and technical standards (e.g., a faulty socket). The warranty in no case entitles you to compensation for damages. All other damage claims, including damage, are excluded unless the law states otherwise. We will not apply warranty terms other than those mentioned above.
