*As used in these Limited Warranties, “lifetime” means the normal useful life of the product under reasonable use.

**After the first year of use, Blockbuster Electronics will replace the sleep mattress on the following prorated basis:  more than 1 but less than 2 years of use, 90% of the cost of the replacement is covered; more than 2 years but less than 3 years of use, 80% of the cost of the replacement is covered.

***All seat cushion cores in both Unattached Cushioning and Attached Cushioning will soften with normal use and will conform to the shape of the user. This shall be considered normal wear, and shall not be considered a loss of resiliency or a material manufacturing defect.

****The Leather and Upholstery Fabric Limited Warranty also includes seam slippage, cracking, and dye transfers. Leather is a natural product, and, as such, each hide will reflect its own individuality. Some variations of shade and tone are to be expected as are the nicks, scratches, and wrinkles that only occur in genuine leather; these characteristics are in no way to be considered a defect.  These Limited Warranties do not cover tears, flattening of nap, pilling, fading, or shrinking and is not valid when heavy soiling or abuse is evident.  These Limited Warranties also do not cover protective finishes, velvets, and velvet types, since by their very nature, these fabrics are of soft texture and will crush, shade and mark more readily than most fabrics; these characteristics are in no way to be considered a defect.



Limitations and Exceptions

The following limitation and exceptions apply to the Limited Warranties:

Remedy

Under these Limited Warranties, for all of its products other than an Unattached Cushion (as defined in the topical heading “Cushioning”), the sole liability of Blockbuster Electronics is limited to repair, or at its option, replacement the applicable product or part not in conformity with these Limited Warranties.

IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING ANY OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, IMPOSED ON THE SALE OF THIS PRODUCT AND ITS PARTS UNDER LOCAL LAW, ARE LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE WARRANTY PERIOD AND NO WARRANTIES APPLY AFTER THAT PERIOD. SOME AREAS DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

NO OTHER EXPRESS WARRANTY HAS BEEN MADE OR WILL BE MADE ON BEHALF OF Blockbuster Electronics WITH RESPECT TO THE PRODUCT AND ITS PARTS, OR THE OPERATION, REPAIR, OR REPLACEMENT THEREOF. FURTHERMORE, NO REPRESENTATIVE OF Blockbuster Electronics OR ITS DISTRIBUTORS OR RETAILERS IS AUTHORIZED TO MAKE ANY CHANGES OR MODIFICATIONS TO THESE LIMITED WARRANTIES.

SOME RETAILERS OFFER EXTENDED OR ADDITIONAL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO EXTENDED OR ADDITIONAL FABRIC WARRANTIES, EITHER FROM THE RETAILER OR THROUGH A THIRD-PARTY. Blockbuster Electronics SHALL NOT BE LIABLE UNDER ANY EXTENDED OR ADDITIONAL WARRANTIES OFFERED BY ANY RETAILER OR THROUGH A THIRD-PARTY UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.

THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS STATED IN THESE LIMITED WARRANTIES SHALL BE THE CONSUMER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY IN THE EVENT OF A MANUFACTURING DEFECT DURING THE WARRANTY PERIOD. IN NO EVENT SHALL Blockbuster Electronics BE RESPONSIBLE FOR DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, OR SIMILAR DAMAGES, WHETHER INDIRECT OR DIRECT, AND WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT OR TORT.

Some areas do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.

IF YOU USE AN INAPPROPRIATE FOUNDATION OR BOX SPRING WITH THIS MATTRESS, SUCH USE WILL VOID THESE LIMITED WARRANTIES. Blockbuster Electronics RESERVES ALL RIGHTS TO DISCONTINUE ITEMS AND CHANGE PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS WITHOUT NOTICE.

Blockbuster Electronics does not warrant that any product is suitable for any person’s medical condition. Blockbuster Electronics makes no warranty beyond that which is contained in these Limited Warranties.

This Limited Warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights that vary from location to location.

Claim Procedure

If a problem arises which you feel is covered by these Limited Warranties, contact the Blockbuster Electronics authorized retailer from which you purchased the product. All claims must include the original bill of sale, the product serial number, and the law label (from the mattress and/or foundation) and be filed within the applicable warranty period, to satisfy the Limited Warranty requirements. Blockbuster Electronics may require you to provide proof of the quality of the foundation used with your mattress. If necessary, the retailer will contact Blockbuster Electronics to establish service. If the problem can be easily corrected, Blockbuster Electronics will authorize the retailer to make those repairs. Blockbuster Electronics reserves the right to require that defective parts be returned upon request.

Blockbuster Electronics is not responsible for scheduling or the cost of transporting the product from your home to the retailer or from the retailer to your home. You must make those arrangements with the retailer. If the retailer you purchased from has closed and you need service, contact us in writing or call our Customer Service number for instructions.

Caution

The power foundation has many moving parts. Caution must be used in operation. Children should not be allowed to play on or operate the power foundation. Always leave the power foundation in the flat position and keep hands, fingers and body parts away from the mechanism.

Blockbuster Electronics reserves the right to refuse service and invalidate these Limited Warranties when, upon inspection, the Blockbuster Electronics mattress or Blockbuster Electronics foundation is found to be in an unsanitary condition or when product failure is due to causes other than defective workmanship or materials. Please refer to the “Mattress & Foundation Care Instructions” section of this Limited Warranty for proper mattress and foundation care.

MATTRESS & FOUNDATION CARE INSTRUCTIONS

DO

Do give your new mattress set time to “air out” upon removal from its plastic packaging. Dispose of all plastic packaging as soon as possible.

Do carry your mattress flat on its side. It’s easier to handle and you’ll be less likely to damage the mattress.

Do keep your bedding clean. We suggest using a mattress pad or mattress protector, especially if children use the bed.

Do replace the old foundation when purchasing a new mattress. An old foundation may not provide sufficient support. It may appear that your new mattress is sagging when it is really the foundation, which supports the entire mattress.

Do use an appropriate frame and center support for queen- and king-size sets. Using the right support frame will ensure that your warranty remains in effect.

Do allow your memory foam mattress to warm to room temperature. The memory foam is temperature sensitive and will soften when it is warm.

The covers on some Ashley mattress models are removable for washing if it is absolutely necessary. We recommend a cold temperature setting for machine washing and a cool setting for machine drying; air drying is recommended.

DON'T

DON’T PLACE YOUR MATTRESS NEAR OPEN FLAME OR EXPOSE TO FIRE. THIS MATTRESS IS NOT FLAME- OR FIREPROOF, AND CAN IGNITE AND/OR BURN IF EXPOSED TO OPEN FLAME OR FIRE. WHEN IGNITED, SOME BEDDING MATERIAL CAN BURN RAPIDLY AND EMIT SMOKE AND HAZARDOUS GASES.

Don’t smoke in bed. This mattress is manufactured as required by Federal law to resist, but not necessarily eliminate, ignition by smoldering cigarettes.

Don’t let anyone stand or jump on your mattress or foundation. It was not built for that kind of weight concentration or abuse.

Don’t allow your mattress to get wet because some of the upholstery materials may compress. Protect it from water or other liquids.

Don’t remove the law label or tag at the end of your mattress. This label serves as a means of identification to establish your right to the Limited Warranty.

Don’t use dry cleaning fluid of any type on your mattress. These chemicals will damage some of the construction materials and will void the Limited Warranty.

Don’t place pillow-top side of mattress on bottom.
