Warranty

Many of our products at Lounges Plus come with guarantees beyond our obligation under the Australian Consumer Law. You can find these guarantees enclosed within the packaging of your item.

Your rights under the Australian Consumer law:

You are entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure and for compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage. You are also entitled to have the goods repaired or replaced if the goods fail to be acceptable quality and failure does not amount to a major failure. Lounges Plus will repair or replace any product with a manufacturing or materials fault for the duration of the guarantee period. The guarantee only applies to products that are used for normal domestic purposes and excludes products used for commercial purposes. The guarantee applies to the original purchaser only and is not transferable. The guarantees under the Australian Consumer Law are in addition to any warranty against defects you are given. Should your product be defective, you may choose to make a claim under Australian Consumer Law.

Consumer Guarantee remedies, as subject to the Australian Consumer Law, entitle the Purchaser to:

<> a replacement or refund for a major failure and for compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage.
<> have goods repaired or replaced if the goods fail to be acceptable quality and failure does not amount to a major failure (Minor Failure).

MAJOR FAILURE

For goods, there is a “major failure” to comply with a consumer guarantee when:

<> you would not have purchased the product if you had known about the problem; or
the product is significantly different from the description, sample or demonstration model you were shown; or
<> the product is substantially unfit for its normal purpose and cannot easily be made fit within a reasonable time; or
<> the product is substantially unfit for the purpose you told the supplier about, and cannot easily be made fit within a reasonable time; or
<> the product is unsafe.

In the event of a Major Failure of a Lounges Plus product, you can choose to:

<> return the goods to us and ask for a refund; or
<> return the goods to us and ask for a replacement; or
<> keep the goods and ask us for compensation for the difference in value from either the supplier or the manufacturer.

MINOR FAILURE

For goods, something is deemed a “minor failure” where is does not satisfy the criteria of “major failure” and can be fixed in a reasonable period of time.

In the event of a Minor Failure of a Lounges Plus product, Lounges Plus can choose to:

<> repair the Lounges Plus product at no cost to you; or
<> replace the Lounges Plus product, at no cost to you; or
<> refund you.

If Lounges Plus fails to provide a repair within a reasonable period of time or cannot fix the problem you can:

<> get it done elsewhere and pass on the cost to Lounges Plus; or
<> ask for a replacement; or
<> ask for a refund; or
<> recover compensation from Lounges Plus for the drop in value below the price that you paid.

You are responsible for returning the goods to Lounges Plus at your expense in the circumstances which you have picked up the goods or agreed upon by you or a Lounges Plus representative.

If however, the item is faulty and/or the cost to return, remove or transport the goods will be significant to you, and you have paid any delivery/service expenses in full, then Lounges Plus must arrange for the goods to be collected from you, within a reasonable time and at the expense of Lounges Plus.

Consumer Guarantees don not apply if you:

<> received what you asked for but simply changed your mind; 
<> found it cheaper somewhere else;
<> decided you did not like the purchase or had no use for it;
<> misused a product in any way that caused the problem; or
<> knew of, or were made aware of, the faults before you bought the product.
