AFTER-SALES SERVICE
Warranty Clause
- Unique Srl is liable for any lack of conformity that becomes apparent within two years of delivery of the goods.
- For the purposes of this contract, consumer goods are presumed to conform to the contract if, where applicable, the following circumstances coexist: a) they are suitable for the purposes for which goods of the same type are ordinarily used; b) they conform to the description provided by UNIQUE-MILANO.COM and possess the qualities of the goods that UNIQUE-MILANO.COM presented to the consumer as a sample or model; c) they have the usual quality and performance of goods of the same type that the consumer can reasonably expect, taking into account the nature of the goods and, where applicable, public statements regarding the specific characteristics of the goods made in this regard by UNIQUE-MILANO.COM, the manufacturer, or its agent or representative, particularly in advertising or on labeling; d) they are also suitable for the particular purpose intended by the consumer, which the consumer communicated to UNIQUE-MILANO.COM at the time the contract was concluded and which UNIQUE-MILANO.COM also accepted by conclusive conduct.
- The Buyer forfeits all rights if they fail to report the lack of conformity to UNIQUE-MILANO.COM within two months of the date on which the defect was discovered. Reporting is not necessary if UNIQUE-MILANO.COM has acknowledged the existence of the defect or concealed it.
- In any event, unless proven otherwise, it is presumed that defects in conformity appearing within six months of delivery of the product already existed at that time, unless this presumption is incompatible with the nature of the product or the nature of the lack of conformity.
- In the event of a lack of conformity, the Buyer may, alternatively and free of charge, under the conditions set out below, request repair or replacement of the purchased product, a reduction in the purchase price, or termination of this contract, unless the request is objectively impossible to fulfil or would be excessively burdensome for UNIQUE-MILANO.COM pursuant to Article 130, paragraph 4, of the Consumer Code.
- The request must be submitted in writing by email to Unique Srl at customercare@unique-milano.eu. Unique Srl will provide a written response within 5 working days and will indicate as soon as possible its willingness to proceed with the request, or the reasons preventing it from doing so. In the same communication, where Unique Srl has accepted the Buyer’s request, it must indicate the shipping or return arrangements for the product, as well as the deadline for returning or replacing the defective product.
- If repair and replacement are impossible or excessively burdensome, or Unique Srl has not repaired or replaced the product within the deadline referred to in the preceding point, or, finally, if the replacement or repair previously carried out has caused significant inconvenience to the Buyer, the Buyer may, at their choice, request a price reduction or termination of the contract. In this case, the Buyer must submit their request to Unique Srl, which will indicate its willingness to proceed with it, or the reasons preventing it from doing so, within 5 working days of receipt.
