5-YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY

RASTELLI has always taken care and put passion into design and production of its kitchens, using products with the highest reference standards. This allows RASTELLI to guarantee that its kitchen are free from manufacturing defects, as explicitly stated in this warranty whereas any damage due to the assembly, inappropriate use and incorrect maintenance can in no way be imputed to RASTELLI.

Indeed, this warranty supposes that kitchens are correctly installed by specialized personnel, properly

maintained and used in accordance with the use and maintenance manual.

RASTELLI has always paid attention to choose the best materials for the production of its products. Besides an undoubted resistance, beauty and durability that distinguish them, the materials used, also

have some particular features: one of these is the uniqueness of the single pieces thanks to its colouring and shades and the fact that they can continually change its colours, tones, shades and brightness. All these features add quality and value to the kitchens we manufacture and don’t show any defect.

Natural  materials (e.g.  wood,  marble, granite stone),  as  they  are  “live”  materials, are  subject  to ordinary changes over time.

In addition wood can be subject to a few modest changes over time, due to small openings through junctures or small degree of distortion ; these are not defects of the product but confirm that the wood used is real wood.

With prolonged exposure to the light glossy surfaces are subject to tones and shades changes. Water-based paints are subject to natural variations of tones and shades.

All these features are not defects but they add value to the material used and enhance the product and its uniqueness.
