manufacturer's warranty
A manufacturer's warranty is a guarantee provided by the product's maker that it will function properly for a certain period. If the product has defects or issues caused by manufacturing or materials during this time, the company will typically repair, replace, or offer a refund at no extra cost. Warranties outline what is covered and any conditions or limitations. They aim to give consumers confidence in the product's quality and performance, and are separate from any additional warranties or service plans you might purchase.
