Simmer Style Warranty

We care about the products that we design and produce. We have long-term relationships with all our suppliers, who all meet the Simmer Style trademark of high-end quality. Our team spends much time in the factories and on the factory floor. This relentless work reflects in our quality, with our zero-to-nothing warranty issues on our windsurfing sails and less than 1% warranty rate on our high-performance windsurfing boards.
 
However, as with all production, there may be hidden material defects on a particular piece. We work every day to limit the number of these defects. If there is a defect it will normally will break during the first few sessions and this is covered by the manufacturing defects warranty.
 
All Simmer Style sails, boards and accessories are guaranteed against manufacturing and material defects according to regulations in the country where it is purchased. The guarantee is only valid when the problem originates from recreational usage on the water, see terms and conditions below. Normal wear and tear is not guaranteed.
 
For warranty issues, contact your local dealer or online shop where the product has been purchased. The warranty is valid from the date of purchase on the original receipt.
 

The warranty is not valid for secondhand purchases.
