Seller will make a good faith effort to deliver Goods in accordance with Buyer’s schedule. Seller will pay for expedited shipping of delayed Goods if the delay in delivery is solely caused by Seller. Seller assumes no responsibility or liability for Seller’s non-performance caused by a force majeure event.

6. INSPECTION AND ACCEPTANCE:

Buyer has 7 days after delivery to inspect all items, prior to installation, to report any missing or damaged items, after which date Buyer will be deemed to have accepted the Goods and will have no right to reject the Goods or to revoke acceptance.

Wood, like all natural materials, has inherent disparities in color and grain pattern. Due to variations caused by nature, over which the company has no control, Ronbow does its best to match finish samples and grain examples provided. Ronbow cannot guarantee an exact match to samples provided due to natural variations of wood. Due to natural characteristics of wood and the effects of aging, products shown in displays and/or printed materials will not be an exact match to new cabinetry you will receive. Depending on wood characteristics, age of sample, UV exposure and environment of the showroom, samples will show some degree of variation from new products. You should not expect all doors, drawer fronts, trim or molding to match exactly in either finish or grain. It is not possible to exactly match colors in printed materials, therefore you should view actual samples when making your color selection. Natural and unavoidable conditions will not be accepted as a reason to return, replace or refund an order. Proposition 65. The statute states that “no person in the course of doing business shall knowingly and intentionally expose any individual to a chemical known to the state (California) to cause cancer or reproductive toxicity without first giving a clear and reasonable warning”. Warning: Machining, sanding, sawing or drilling of products may produce wood dust, a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer.

Ronbow extends the following non-transferable limited lifetime warranty to the original purchaser and originally installed dwelling of its USA manufactured custom cabinetry (including body, door and drawer fronts) against substantial defects in material and workmanship, under normal use and maintenance, for the applicable warranty periods stated below. This warranty begins upon the date of delivery, and only applies to cabinets made in the Livermore, California facility. Representatives of Ronbow do not have the authority to alter the terms or scope of this warranty.

● Which has been subjected to misuse, vandalism, abuse, negligence, accident, or unauthorized modifications;
● Installed or used outdoors;
● Which has been improperly stored (if the product must be stored, it should be covered and stored in a humidity and temperature-controlled environment, away from direct sunlight);

In addition, natural materials may vary in color and characteristics and exhibit subtle changes as they age. For example, painted doors, drawer fronts, and face frames may eventually have visible cracking around the joint area, and cabinet colors may darken or lighten over time. These variations are considered to be the nature of the material in relation to their environmental exposure and are not covered under this Limited Lifetime Warranty.

In the event of a defect in the workmanship or materials of a product or product component occurring during the warranty period described above, we will, at our option, repair or replace any defective product or product component. If it is not commercially feasible to repair or replace a defective product or product component, we may refund the original price paid by you for the defective product or product component, or provide a credit towards a similar type of product sold by us. The following costs and expenses are not covered by this Limited Lifetime Warranty: (1) labor costs for the original installation, removal, or reinstallation of the product, or defective part thereof; (2) labor costs or material charges for the removal, reinstallation, repainting, refinishing or replacement of any other items or building materials which must be removed, replaced, reinstalled, or refinished in order to repair or replace the defective product or component. Further, Ronbow reserves the right to modify or alter any product design, specifications or materials without obligation to make similar changes to products previously manufactured or sold by us.

The repair or replacement remedies offered by Ronbow under this Limited Lifetime Warranty are contingent on the current product offerings of styles and construction options within our product line at the time a warranty claim is made by you. If a valid warranty claim is filed for an obsolete product, we reserve the right, at our sole option, to honor its repair or replacement obligations under this by either: (1) replacing the affected product or component with a new product or component of the same or approximate style or color from our current product line or offerings; or (2) replacing the affected product or component to achieve a uniform appearance with a similar or comparable product style or approximate color of the originally purchased style. If a product or component is replaced or repaired, we cannot guarantee an exact match with the finish/color or appearance of other products or fixtures installed at your dwelling. This is due to changes that may occur during the products natural aging process, affecting its color and/or grain.

This warranty shall become null and void if the cabinets are in any way modified, improperly installed, or damaged prior to or during installation.

The remedies described above are your sole and exclusive remedies and our entire liability for any breach of this Limited Lifetime Warranty. There are no implied warranties extending beyond the terms of this warranty. Our total liability shall under no circumstances exceed the actual amount paid by you for the defective product.
