Warranty

Sediment Design warrants that its furniture products, including but not limited to tables, chairs, beds, dressers, desks, cabinets, entertainment units, benches, built-ins, and any other furniture products it manufactures, will be free from defects in workmanship, and that Sediment Design will, in its discretion, make all necessary modifications, adjustments, repairs, replacements or additions to ensure that its products remain in such condition for 1 year, at no additional charge to the customer, subject to the limitations and exceptions below.


LIMITATIONS AND EXCEPTIONS This warranty will extend for 1 year from the date of shipment of the product, and only extends to the original purchaser. Any warranty of Sediment Design, whether express or implied, covers only normal usage of its products in accordance with any product specifications and care instructions provided or implied to the customer by Sediment Design upon purchase. No warranty, express or implied, applies to any condition of any product resulting from accident, acts of third persons, environmental conditions, misuse, abuse, delivery or transportation damage, nor any condition resulting from modifications or alterations by any person, incorrect or inadequate maintenance, cleaning or care, or damages or defects caused by use of chemical treatments, cleaning products or protective coatings applied to the product. Any such chemical treatments, cleaning products or protective coatings void all warranties of Sediment Design. Customer’s sole remedy in the event of a product defect is expressly limited to the repair or replacement of the damaged part by Sediment Design, which shall not extend the warranty period, and will only be provided upon receipt by Sediment Design of a valid written explanation of the claimed defect from the original customer within 7 days from the shipment date of the product. Our items are built for durability and longevity, however any movement, checks, knots, warping, swelling and discoloration are intrinsic characteristics of wood products and can develop over time. There are also diverse environmental issues that may affect your furniture and develop over time. Light, temperature and humidity are all contributing factors to the health and well being of your product.


SIZE AND DIMENSION VARIABILITY The sizes and dimensions of Sediment Design’s designs may vary slightly from the actual sizes and dimensions of delivered products, due to expansion and contraction of wood products, the inherent nature of the materials, and the handmade nature of Sediment Design products. The customer assumes all risk regarding determination of a product’s correct size and dimension. In no event shall a mistake in size or dimension of the product, due to customer error, result in invalidation of any order or require any refund to the customer.


APPEARANCE VARIABILITY Customer acknowledges that the appearance of the wood used to build a particular product may vary from the wood used in any samples, due to natural characteristics of wood and the craftsmanship used to create each individual product. Therefore, no representation, warranty and/or guarantee is made with respect to the exact color, luster or appearance of finishes of any product. The customer also acknowledges that wood used in Sediment Design products may contain mineral deposits, pits, gum streaks, small pin holes, knots, checks, cracks, color differences, unusual grain patterns, darker heart wood, lighter sap wood, etc. The frequency of such features will depend upon the material specified and will vary in all handmade and machined pieces. No two products produced by Sediment Design are exact duplicates, and therefore Sediment Design makes no representation or guarantee that products will appear exactly as any other.


DAMAGE DURING SHIPPING Please inspect your purchase immediately upon receipt. All items are professionally crated/packed to ensure safe shipping and delivery. Concealed damage claims must be filed within 5 days of receipt of shipment and include photos of the damage. Please save all of your paperwork and packaging materials and contact us immediately to arrange for warranty claims.
