Summary of Australian Statutory consumer guarantees

 

The Australian Consumer Law applies the following consumer guarantees to all goods you purchase from Lumin Furniture:

  • The goods will be of acceptable quality;
  • The goods will be fit for a particular purpose;
  • The goods will match their description;
  • The goods will match the sample or demonstration model;
  • You have title to the goods;
  • You have undisturbed possession of the goods;
  • There are no undisclosed securities on the goods;
  • Spare parts and repair facilities will be available for a reasonable time after purchase (unless you were advised otherwise at time of purchase).

 

Consumer Guarantee Remedies

 

If you have a "minor problem" with a Lumin Furniture product, Lumin Furniture can, at its cost, choose to repair the product instead of replacing it or refunding you.

If you have a "major problem" with a Lumin Furniture product, you have the right to choose whether to reject the goods (and either choose a refund or a replacement) or to ask for compensation for the drop in value below the price you paid.

 

Major Failure

 

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

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

If there is a “major failure” of a Lumin Furniture product, you can choose to:

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

 

Minor Failure

 

A "minor failure" is something that is not a "major failure". It can be fixed in a reasonable period of time. If your Lumin Furniture product is subject to a "minor failure", Lumin Furniture can choose to:

  • repair the Lumin Furniture product at no cost to you; or
  • refund you.

if Lumin Furniture fails to give you a free repair within a reasonable time or cannot fix your problem, you can:

  • get it done elsewhere and pass on the cost to Lumin Furniture; or
  • ask for a replacement; or
  • ask for a refund; or
  • recover compensation from Lumin Furniture for the drop in value below the price.

 

Exceptions to Guarantees

 

Consumer guarantees do 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.

It is important that all your furniture are cared for following the instruction provided to you at the point of sale. Failing to care for your furniture may result in undesirable damage and void any warranty as per the conditions above. 

Caring for Your Furniture

 

GENERAL CARE

Please ensure that your furniture is used as it was intended. Do not sit on arms of lounges, do not sit or stand on table tops, and do not pivot on the back legs of chairs.

SUNLIGHT

As with any product, prolonged exposure of furniture to direct sunlight will harm it. Direct exposure to sunlight will cause leather and fabrics to fade and may also cause excessive drying. Direct exposure to sunlight will cause timber products, particularly doors, tops and side panels to warp.

LEATHER UPHOLSTERED FURNITURE

Do not use harsh chemicals when cleaning your furniture.

FABRIC UPHOLSTERED FURNITURE

If thread becomes loose on the fabric, simply cut it off. Do not pull it. Dust is best removed using your vacuum cleaner with the appropriate attachment or a simple duster to prevent scratches. Avoid harsh brushing and sharp objects (rings, buckles, toys) as it will cause snagging of threads. Do not allow cats and dogs to walk on fabric upholstered furniture. As many fabrics differ in properties, it is best to follow the unique care and cleaning instructions labelled on your fabric furniture.

LACQUERED AND TIMBER FINISHES

Natural timber and veneer finishes will show distinctive markings, patterns and colour variations which are evidence of being produced from genuine timber materials. Always use protective heat coverings to protect against hot objects. A tablecloth is not sufficient. Always use coasters when placing glasses, bottles or cups on the surface. Regularly clean surface by wiping with a non abrasive, damp cloth.

MARBLE, TRAVERTINE, PAINTED RESIN AND MACSTONE FINISHES

Marble and Travertine are natural materials. Each piece is unique in markings and patterns and colour variation. Always use protective heat coverings to protect against hot objects. A table cloth is not sufficient. Always use coasters when placing glasses, bottles or cups on the surface. Any liquid spills should be wiped clean immediately. Remove dirt and dust by wiping with a warm, damp cloth.

CHROME & METAL FINISHES

Dust the surface regularly to avoid build up of pollutants, which may cause the surface to rust. Only use a recognized brand of chrome polish, if necessary. Avoid contact with sharp or hard objects as this will cause scratching.

GLASS

Use a regular glass cleaner with an appropriate soft cloth for glass. Do not apply glass cleaner to surrounding areas or the frosted side of the glass. Always use a mat to avoid hot objects being in direct contact with glass. Avoid contact with sharp or hard objects as this will cause scratching. Never lift glass tops from the ends of a table as this will put unnecessary stress on the surface and may cause it to break

BATTERIES

The healthy lifetime of any Battery supplied with our products is 12 months from the date of purchase.
