Mattresses

This warranty applies to workmanship faults on our Standard UK Single and European Single mattresses, including our Classic, Luxury and Truckle mattresses. In the event of a successful warranty claim it guarantees replacement, repair or upgrade; it will not activate any refund. All warranties and guarantees are limited to goods sold and retained in mainland United Kingdom (excluding Northern Ireland) and used solely in private residences and not in commercial or rental properties.

The following products are excluded from our Five Year Warranty: all Toddler Mattresses, the Bed in a Bag, Sleepover Chair Cushions and the Merlin & Tate High Sleeper chair cushions.

What is covered: This warranty applies to any spring unit failure, stitching failure, or any transit damage reported at the time of delivery.

What is not covered: This warranty does not apply to general wear and tear from normal domestic use, including natural settlement of fillings, soiling or marking.

This warranty does not apply to any neglect, misuse, or mishandling, namely:

• Loss or damage caused by improper storage, i.e. the mattress being folded, rolled or stored outside or in damp conditions; loss or damage (including rusting and corrosion) due to unreasonable exposure to water, heat or weather.
• Loss or damage due to fire, smoke, explosion, lightning, sunlight, damage or infestation by animals or insects, theft, accidental damage or loss caused by a third party.
• Loss or damage caused by malicious damage or abuse such as frame damage, spring damage or breakthrough, burns, cuts, tears, liquid damage or stains to the cover or spring unit.
• Mould, dirt or smells resulting from poor mattress care or from failure to act in accordance with the washing and/or care instructions supplied.
• Damage caused by the use of a non-compatible base; our mattresses are designed to be used with a board frame or a slatted frame with gaps no greater than 70mm. For more details see our FAQs.

This warranty is not transferable, therefore any claim made by anyone other than the original purchaser will not be eligible for consideration;  this includes any mattress sold “as-is”, “preconditioned”, “reconditioned”, “used”, “comfort return”, “returned”, “previously owned”, or described with any other similar wording indicating that the mattress is not “new”,  of “first quality”, or has previously been purchased or used by someone else.

PLEASE NOTE:  Any claim under this warranty must be submitted by contacting GLTC Customer Service via email at info@greatlittletrading.co.uk; failure to do so will compromise the validity of the warranty. We reserve the right to refuse to collect and/or dispose of any unsanitary mattress.

Our warranties and guarantees are limited to goods sold and retained in mainland United Kingdom (excluding Northern Ireland), by D Mason and used solely in private residences and not in commercial or rental properties.
