Kraus extends this warranty to the original purchaser for personal household use of the “Kitchen Accessories” in their original location. The warranty is non-transferable. Kraus warrants the structure and finish of the product (Kitchen Accessories) to be free from defects in material and workmanship under normal usage for a period of one (1) years. The warranty commences from the initial date of purchase by the owner or trade professional, from an authorized Kraus dealer, through the one (1) year term of the original owner or end-user.

This warranty extends to the original owner or end-user, and is not transferable to a subsequent owner.
Restrictions
This warranty does not cover antediluvian, discontinued, or display products,
whether such items are purchased at discount outlets, unauthorized dealers,
and/or sold on clearance. This warranty does not cover instances of
negligence, misuse, abuse, improper installation, carelessness, accident, hard
water or mineral deposits, exposure to corrosive materials, misapplication,
damages caused by improper maintenance, alteration of the product, or failure
to follow care or installation instructions enclosed with your product. Avoid
using abrasive cleaners such as powders, bleach, ammonia, alcohol, or
chlorine. Avoid using abrasive pads, steel wool, or wire brushes, as these
will damage and wear down the finish. This warranty does not apply unless the
Kraus product is installed by a fully insured and licensed trade professional.
Kraus insists that such professionals have experience in the installation of
bathroom and kitchen manufactured goods. This warranty does not cover labor
charges or costs of removal and reinstallation of said product. This warranty
does not allow recovery of incidental or consequential damages such as loss of

express or implied are given, including but not limited to, any implied
warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose. Some states do
not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages,
or limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitations
