19. The COCOON Warranty

Exceptional quality is one of the key factors contributing to COCOON success. We offer a 20-year warranty on our stainless steel taps and accessories and a 5-year warranty on basins and bathtubs against manufacturing or material defects when used in normal domestic applications (excluding serviceable parts, neglect or abuse). The COCOON Warranty period starts from the date on your invoice from COCOON. There will be no exceptions. Within your warranty COCOON offers a warranty on manufacturing and material defects.
Defects as to quality shall not include: Natural wear and tear; typical wearing parts are, in particular, the products offered by COCOON as replacement parts. Upon request, COCOON will provide the customer with a list of replacement parts. Replacement parts such as thermostatic or mixer cartridges, flow control cartridge, ceramic disks, o-rings, flow regulators, check valves, aerators, flexible hoses, etc, are not covered by the COCOON warranty.
Qualities of the goods or damage resulting if the product (s) are not properly installed, maintained and used in accordance with our instructions/manuals and advice. I.e. intentional damage, damage caused during installation, damage due to poor maintenance, damage due to pollution, poor water quality and / or calcification, damage by the use of detergents, damage by adjusting the product, damage by adding / editing products other than products of COCOON, damage due to weather conditions (frost, moss, heat, etc.), your COCOON Warranty will expire with immediate effect.
Qualities of the goods resulting from colour differences. Due to the natural characteristics of our finishings, color differences may occur. I.e. the PVD colors applied on stainless steel may vary in color between components and products and may also change or defuse over time. Natural stone and wood are natural products and they are prone to variations in color, pattern, and density that actually add to the beauty and charm of the material. As always, all customers are invited and encouraged to view and approve their specifics slabs before fabrication. COCOON makes no warranty of any differences between samples and the delivered products. COCOON liability is limited to the repair or replacement of the defective natural stone piece only, subject to the availability of the stone color. If the color is no longer available, liability is limited to the cash value of the installed piece based on current square meter prices if we determine that a satisfactory repair cannot be made. This warranty also does not cover products that have been moved from their original installed location and does not include natural characteristics of stone such as color variation, water lines, surface marks, fissures, pinholes, resin imperfections such as haze or dimples, or natural aging. Nor does it cover damage caused by items out of our control such as staining, settlement, fire or acts of nature.
Qualities of the goods resulting from scratches and/or stains. Scratches and stains are a natural characteristic of our brushed stainless steel, natural stone, solid surface, and wood and result from regular wear and tear and in our believe only contribute to the raw character of our product surfaces. Cleaning pieces of advice as stated in our product manuals should be followed.
Qualities of the goods or damage resulting from force majeure, from extraordinary external impacts that are not intended according to the contract or from the goods being used in a manner which does not correspond to their contractually intended or customary use. Claims for defects as to quality shall not exist if the goods are altered by a third party unless the alteration did not cause the defect or the third party was expressly instructed by COCOON.
A repair or replacement delivery shall not result in the Warranty Period starting anew. This warranty does not affect your statutory rights. If any of the provisions above are contrary to any relevant legislation, then that provision shall be deemed to be excluded from the warranty and the rest of the provision(s) will apply.
