Implied Warranty of Merchantability

The Implied Warranty of Merchantability is a legal guarantee that a product sold by a merchant is fit for its usual purpose and meets basic quality standards. This means the item should work as expected, be free from defects, and be suitable for the normal use it’s intended for. If the product doesn’t meet these standards, the buyer may have the right to seek repairs, replacements, or refunds. This warranty is automatically in place whenever a merchant sells goods, ensuring consumers receive decent, functioning products without needing to explicitly specify the quality expected.
