Warranties & Policies
The Dankz name lets you know that every piece of furniture we sell has been made to the highest quality.
To offer you further peace of mind, we also include the Dankz Furniture Warranty with every piece of furniture we sell.
The warranty naturally relates to normal usage of the furniture you’ve chosen and is offered on the understanding that you’ve made every effort to maintain it in good condition. Don’t worry we’ve got lots of handy aftercare tips and info to help you do just that.
The warranty period commences from the date you receive the furniture.
