Please note that it is very common for manufacturers to send replacement parts to address warranty issues. Manufacturer warranties will not cover any costs associated with repairs. The replacement parts are the same version as your original products. We do not provide any upgrade replacement parts under any circumstance.

'Defects', as defined in this warranty, are any imperfections in material or workmanship that inhibits the use of the product. In no event shall Smart Office be liable for incidental or consequential damages resulting from the use of the product.
