  4. If the Product does not conform to the Agreement, the Consumer may demand its repair or replacement.
  5. The Seller may carry out a replacement when the consumer demands repair, or may carry out a repair when the consumer demands replacement, if bringing the Product into conformity with the Agreement in the manner chosen by the consumer is impossible or would require excessive costs for the Seller. If both repair and replacement are impossible or would require excessive costs, the Seller may refuse to bring the Product into conformity with the Agreement.
  6. When assessing whether costs are excessive, all circumstances of the case are taken into account, in particular the significance of the lack of conformity of the Product with the Agreement, the value of the Product in conformity with the Agreement, and the excessive inconvenience to the consumer resulting from a change in the manner of, or a refusal to, bring the Product into conformity with the Agreement.
  7. The Seller carries out the repair or replacement within a reasonable time from the moment the Seller was informed by the consumer of the lack of conformity with the Agreement, and without excessive inconvenience to the consumer, taking into account the specific nature of the goods and the purpose for which the consumer acquired them.

  8. The Consumer makes the Product subject to repair or replacement available to the Seller. The Seller will collect the goods from the Consumer at its own expense.
  9. If the Product was installed before the lack of conformity of the Product with the Agreement became apparent, the trader dismantles the goods and reinstalls them after the repair or replacement has been carried out, or has these activities performed at its own expense.

  1. the Seller has refused to bring the Product into conformity with the Agreement in accordance with point 5;
  2. the Seller has not brought the Product into conformity with the Agreement in accordance with points 7-9;
  3. the lack of conformity of the Product with the Agreement persists even though the Seller has tried to bring the Product into conformity with the Agreement;

  5. it is clear from the Seller's statement or the circumstances that the Seller will not bring the Product into conformity with the Agreement within a reasonable time or without excessive inconvenience to the Consumer.
  1. The Seller will consider the complaint within a reasonable period of 14 days.
  2. If a Customer who is a Consumer, exercising their rights arising from the non-conformity of the Product with the Agreement, has submitted a statement to the Seller and the Seller has not responded to this request within 14 calendar days, the request shall be deemed to have been accepted as justified.
  3. In order to speed up the consideration of the complaint, it is recommended that the Customer provide in the complaint description information and circumstances concerning the subject of the complaint, in particular the type and date of occurrence of the defect and the contact details of the person submitting the complaint. The recommendations given in the preceding sentence are merely advisory and do not affect the effectiveness of complaints submitted without the recommended complaint description.
  4. A Customer who exercises their rights arising from the non-conformity of the Product with the Agreement is obliged to deliver the defective product to the address of the Seller's registered office. In the case of a Customer who is a Consumer, the cost of delivering the defective product is borne by the Seller.
  5. If the Customer is an Entrepreneur, the Seller's liability under the statutory warranty (rękojmia) is excluded pursuant to Article 558 § 1 of the Polish Civil Code (Kodeks cywilny).

  7. The Seller is liable for the non-conformity of the goods with the Agreement existing at the time of their delivery and revealed within two years from that time, unless the shelf life of the goods, specified by the Seller, its legal predecessor or persons acting on their behalf, is longer. It is presumed that a lack of conformity of the goods with the Agreement which became apparent within two years of the delivery of the goods existed at the time of their delivery, unless proven otherwise or unless this presumption is incompatible with the specification of the goods or the nature of the lack of conformity with the Agreement. The Consumer may not withdraw from the Agreement if the lack of conformity of the Product with the Agreement is immaterial. It is presumed that the lack of conformity of the Product with the Agreement is material.
  8. The rights arising from the non-conformity of the Product with the Agreement apply to Customers of the Shop who are Consumers and Entrepreneurs with consumer rights.
  9. An Entrepreneur with consumer rights accepts these Terms and Conditions and then exercises their rights.
