17. 25 year guarantee


Further to the rights awarded the consumer by Swedish law, all beds from Hästens Sängar are covered by a 25 year guarantee against breakage of the bed’s springs or frame. Hästens beds contain 100% Swedish-made springs. Hästens Sängar AB offers the following 25 years guarantee:

  • The guarantee is valid for 25 years from the day of delivery. The guarantee is only valid for the original buyer. The Contracts (Rights of Thirds Parties) Act 1999 shall not apply to the guarantee. In order for the guarantee to be valid, the completed guarantee card must be sent to Hästens Sängar AB for registration. It is the responsibility of the buyer to ascertain that the guarantee card is sent to Hästens Sängar AB.
  • The guarantee covers breakage of the metal springs, the frame or the adjustable metal base. The guarantee is not valid if it is apparent that the breakage is caused by accident or a comparable incident, by negligence, use in ways for which the bed is not intended, or other comparable action by the buyer. Neither does the guarantee cover such wear and tear as is caused by normal use. For the avoidance of doubt, please note that the guarantee does not cover the top mattress.
  • The guarantee is valid only in the country where the buyer has purchased the bed and only if the buyer makes a written complaint to Hästens Sängar AB within a reasonable time after the damage has been noted or should have been noted.
  • Upon receipt of the complaint, Hästens shall examine and rectify the problem with due speed. Hästens will inform the customer of whether this examination and/or repair will be undertaken at the customer’s location or if the bed should be transported to Hästens for examination and/or repair. Hästens will arrange any transport needed, unless otherwise agreed between the parties.
  • The guarantee is only valid for examination at the customer’s location and/or transportation within the country where the bed was originally purchased.
  • Hästens reserves the right to decide how the situation shall be remedied and will at its own expense, repair or replace the bed.
  • If the failure is shown not to be covered by this guarantee the customer shall at the discretion of Hästens, acting reasonably, stand the costs incurred by the erroneous complaint.
  • The guarantee statement in no way infringes on the customer’s statutory rights under applicable consumer legislation.
