WARRANTY
Wooden Structures – 10 year or lifetime warranty. Solid wood from sustainable forests is used, so the sofa can be reupholstered over and over again and the structure will be unalterable over time.
Suspension – 10-year or lifetime warranty. The 3.8mm zigzag steel spring frame reinforces the structure and means the structure will not sag.
Seat cushions – 5 year warranty. High density foam has high durability.
Back cushions – 5-year warranty. The hollow fiber used in the manufacture has an exceptional and constant recovery coefficient over time, so that, with minimal maintenance, the cushion will always be in perfect condition.
Fabric – Depending on the manufacturer, the warranty ranges from 2 to 5 years and covers manufacturing defects.
