The legal guarantee of conformity is reserved only to Consumer Users.
The Owner undertakes to deliver the Consumer User Products in compliance with the sales contract. The Products are presumed to be in conformity with the contract if they:
- are fit for the purposes for which goods of the same type are normally used
- comply with the description given by the seller and possess the qualities of the goods which the seller has held out to the consumer as a sample or model
- show the quality and performance which are normal in goods of the same type and which the consumer can reasonably expect, given the nature of the goods and taking into account any public statements on the specific characteristics of the goods made about them by the seller, the producer or his representative, particularly in advertising or on labelling
- are fit for any particular purpose for which the consumer requires them and which he made known to the seller at the time of conclusion of the contract and which the seller has accepted.
Any faults or malfunctions caused by accidental facts or by the responsibility of the Consumer User or by use of the Product that is not in conformity with its intended use and / or with the technical documentation provided are therefore excluded from the scope of application of the guarantee of conformity.
The lack of conformity that occurs within 24 months from the date of delivery of the Product must be reported within 2 months following the date of discovery of the defect.
Unless proved otherwise, any lack of conformity which becomes apparent within six months of delivery of the goods shall be presumed to have existed at the time of delivery unless this presumption is incompatible with the nature of the goods or the nature of the lack of conformity. After 6 months, the Consumer User must provide proof that the damage was not caused by incorrect or improper use of the Product.
According to the Section 130 of the Italian Consumer Code, in the event of a lack of conformity of the Product, the Consumer User has the right to restore conformity of the Product, without charge. To this end, the Consumer User can choose between repairing the Product or replacing it.
This right of choice cannot be exercised if the requested remedy is objectively impossible or excessively expensive. Furthermore, the Consumer User has the right to an adequate price reduction or termination of the contract, only if one of the following situations occurs: i) repair and replacement are impossible or excessively expensive; ii) the Owner has not repaired or replaced the Product within a reasonable period; iii) the replacement or repair has caused considerable inconvenience to the Consumer User.
In order to to use the remedies provided by the guarantee of conformity, the Consumer User shall send a written communication to the e-mail address servizioclienti@stokton.it or call the customer service at the number +39 0573 739 016.
The Owner shall promptly reply to the communication of the alleged lack of conformity and shall indicate to the Consumer User the specific procedure to be followed, also taking into account the product category to which the Product belongs and / or the defect reported.
