ARRANTY

We have designed Zhumell products to be durable and to offer excellent value. 

Because we think it is important to stand behind that statement what follows are 

the details of our warranty, one of the best warranties in the industry. 

Your Zhumell has a 3-year warranty.  For the warranty to be valid, the Zhumell 

must be registered. This can be done quickly and easily at www.zhumell.com or 

by calling: 800.922.2063. 

To obtain warranty service the damaged Zhumell must be returned to Zhumell 

along with $25 to cover shipping and handling.

When you return your Zhumell to us please send a letter that explains the problem. 

This is important. Sometimes the problem is obvious as when we open a box and 

the pieces fall out. However, sometimes Zhumell owners are particular (that is why 

we love you) and a flaw that you have noticed may be hard to find by our techni-

cian.  A letter will speed up the warranty process and save a phone call. (Oh, yes, 

please include your phone number and an address!)

Since we are constantly searching for the best products, we may have improved or 

changed our Zhumell products from the time you first obtained yours, therefore it 

is our option to repair or replace the Zhumells you sent us. (Please note that the 

maximum limit of liability for losses or damage from any cause shall be the price 

paid for the Zhumell. )
