i. Duration and Start of the Warranty

a.Consumer Products – ‘Home & Garden’ Sector
24 months warranty (for non-commercial or private use)

12 months warranty

• The warranty for PrimoFlex® Plus garden hoses is 15 years.
• The warranty for PrimoFlex® Premium garden hoses is 18 years.

Excluded from the warranty are misuse and discoloration of the hoses.

Warranty repair means that we guarantee the use of genuine and proper spare parts by trained personnel who use all the necessary facilities and special tools.

This does not mean that if the same damage is repeated during the aforementioned period, it necessarily constitutes a warranty (it may, for example, be due to systematic misuse or normal wear and tear due to intensive use not in accordance with the specifications of the machine’s construction).

In the context of repairs or technical improvements made within the warranty, the warranty period is automatically renewed for the used spare parts/components.

The duration of the warranty period starts from the date of purchase of the product by the end consumer.

To recognize any warranty claim, the purchase receipt (or a copy thereof) must be provided.

ΙΙ. Content and Scope of the Warranty

  • It applies to new machines.

  • No warranty is provided for used machines and machines whose production date exceeds 5 years from the date of purchase.

  • Within the warranty period, for defects related to the material, assembly, or construction of the product, we provide, at our discretion, either free repair, meaning restoration to normal operation without charging for parts or labor, or replacement.

  • Within the warranty period, for defects related to the material, assembly, or construction of the product, we provide, at our discretion, either free repair, meaning restoration to normal operation without charging for parts or labor, or replacement.

The replaced parts/machines become the property of Kärcher.

  • We do not incur any costs for loan replacement machines for repairs within the warranty period.
  • The company does not recognize any loss of profit from the non-operation of the machine due to damage or any claim for damages beyond the rights defined herein.
