Warranty

It is generally accepted that all furniture sold in New Zealand to consumers must be guaranteed under the Consumer Guarantees Act. This covers against faulty workmanship and materials and also covers you if the product is not fit for the purpose it was intended. Fair wear and tear, evidence of mistreatment or items purchased for business use will not be covered under the Act. YNL furniture aims to satisfy our customers, a fair solution will hopefully be found depending on each claim.

                • Misuse and stains not limited to the following situations:
                • Splinters from slat poking through the fabric if the buyer pushed the mattress when positioning it onto the frame (Mattress should be lifted and placed, not pushed across)
                • Never rotated the mattress (should rotate it every 6 month)to even out the distribution of body weight

                • Issues with firmness or comfort.

            Please choose your mattress carefully. Once a mattress has been used, it cannot be returned and/or refunded for the reason of comfort

            Mattresses will conform to your body and body impressions are likely to occur. This is expected and is not considered a defect with the mattress. Note there is a wear in period, where we suggest that you would normally need a month to get used to your new mattress. It may start to feel uncomfortable, especially as it gets to work to support your spine.
