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. Any product reported to the authorized dealer or to Kraus as being defective within the warranty period will be repaired or replaced with a product of equal value at the option of Kraus. 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.

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.

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.

No additional warranties, express or implied are given, including but not limited to, any implied warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose.
