WEN® will repair or replace, at its discretion, any part that is proven to be defective in materials or work-
manship under normal use during the two (2) years warranty period. Warranty repairs or replacements will

part of the original product and will have the same warranty period as the original product.

with this product.  Contact [email protected] or 1-800-232-1195 to make arrangements for 
repairs and transportation. 

When returning a product for warranty service, the shipping charges must be prepaid by the purchaser. 
The product must be shipped in its original container (or an equivalent), properly packed to withstand the 
hazards of shipment. The product must be fully insured with a copy of the warranty card and/or the proof 
of purchase enclosed. There must also be a description of the problem in order to help our repairs depart-
ment diagnose and fix the issue. Repairs will be made and the product will be returned and shipped back 
to the purchaser at no charge.

NOTE: THIS LIMITED WARRANTY DOES

states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages. Some states do not 
allow limitation on the length of an implied warranty. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you
