The liability of SharkNinja Operating LLC is limited solely, at our option, to either: 1) the cost of the repair or replacement of the unit with a refurbished unit; or 2) an upgrade to a similar model refurbished unit of equal or greater value. Replacement units/parts will be warranted for the remaining portion of the original (90) ninety day warranty period

This Limited Warranty does not cover normal wear of parts and does not apply to any unit that has been tampered with or used for commercial purposes. This Limited Warranty does not cover damage caused by accident, misuse, abuse, negligent handling, incorrect voltage, vandalism, unsuitable environments, damage due to faulty packaging or mishandling in transit, natural disasters or other damages beyond SharkNinja Operating LLC’s control. This Limited Warranty does not cover damage or defects caused by or resulting from damages from shipping or repairs, service or alteration to the product or any of its parts, which have been performed by a repair person not authorized by

SharkNinja Operating LLC. Since this unit has been represented and sold as a refurbished item, this Limited Warranty does not apply to cosmetic damages or defects, including, but not limited to, scratches, scuffs, dents, or dings. Operating the unit in violation of the instructions in the owner’s manual will void the warranty terms.

If your appliance fails to operate properly while in use under normal household conditions within the Limited Warranty period, you may return the complete appliance and accessories with proof of purchase and date, freight prepaid.
