How long is the IKEA guarantee valid?
This guarantee is valid for two (2) years from the
original date of purchase of your appliance at IKEA.

repairs, parts, labour and travel will be covered,
provided that the appliance is accessible for repair
without special expenditure. Replaced parts become
the property of IKEA.
What will IKEA do to correct the problem?
