IKEA guarantees

All of our products are rigorously tested before going to market. Our items are tested and approved according to the strictest standards for daily domestic use. We choose the best materials in terms of safety and the environment to manufacture our products.

IKEA products are built to last so, in addition to the statutory 3-year guarantee, IKEA offers you a commercial guarantee on many products.

When do IKEA guarantees apply?

Our guarantees can change over time and are always determined by the order or purchase date. The validity period for the terms and conditions of the guarantees starts from the day you receive your product. The commercial guarantee for our products includes the statutory guarantee period and the two guarantees do not affect one another.

You will need to show proof of purchase for the product to exercise your right of guarantee.
