Commercial Vs Residential Furniture – What’s with the Warranty

A Busy Cafe or Restaurant needs furniture that is of superior quality and has a commercial furniture warranty to matchHome Dining furniture doesn't need to be as high quality as commercial furniture because of limited use. Warranties from retail suppliers reflect this by not guaranteeing the furniture for commercial use

 

Commercial vs Residential Furniture

Let’s look at commercial furniture warranty. As a hospitality venue you may be tempted to look at buying furniture from a general retail or cheap online store instead of a commercial furniture store.
One clear identifier of the difference between cheap imitation or not fit for purpose products as opposed to quality commercial furniture is the warranty offered by the supplier.

Warranty

Residential products are designed to be used a few times a day or even a few times a week.
We hope your busy hospitality venue sees your furniture used continuously through the day/night with many changes of patrons. For this reason alone your furniture needs to be of superior quality and durability.

Let’s look at a few different furniture store guarantees (even one from a multinational company)

this Quality Guarantee does not extend to…. damage caused when the Product has been used in commercial environments or in a manner or for a purpose which is greater than, or exceptional to normal domestic residential use

Unfortunately, the Store Guarantee does not apply to … Products used for commercial purposes

Goods used for purposes other than residential purposes are not covered by this Warranty.

Products are suitable for domestic use only unless otherwise specified.

What is covered under this guarantee? This guarantee applies to domestic use only

Verkossa’s products are all designed for use in a busy commercial environment and as such come with the following warranty.

Supplier warranties apply to all products for the duration noted on the item.

All products are covered by a commercial warranty for manufacturing faults & defects. This does not cover damage due to the use or misuse of the product, fair wear and tear, or replaceable parts and optional accessories e.g. cushions, feet, screws etc.

So in short buying from a retail furniture store for your commercial space will most likely void any warranty with the store or manufacturer. Check your supplier’s commercial furniture warranty prior to any purchase.
