Limited Warranty


All new Wind & Sea® umbrellas are warranted to be free of manufacturing and materials defects for thirty (30) days from the date of purchase, subject to the full terms and conditions of the warranty below.  All claims of any manufacturing or materials defect must be made within thirty (30) days directly to Wind & Sea or to the retail store where the umbrella was purchased, together with proof of purchase, using the procedure under the heading “Warranty Resolution” below.

If it is determined upon inspection by Wind & Sea that a manufacturing defect is present, then Wind & Sea will repair the umbrella or replace the umbrella with like merchandise at its sole discretion.

No monetary refunds or exchanges for any product other than a Wind & Sea umbrella will be made.

Any Wind & Sea umbrellas used for commercial purposes are not warranted for any period of time. 

The installation of any third party parts and/or accessories on the Wind & Sea umbrella voids the limited warranty.  Drilling or cutting into, and/or affixing objects to, the Wind & Sea umbrella also voids the warranty.

Although Wind & Sea umbrellas are made with the finest materials and manufactured to the highest standards in the industry, because of the nature of outdoor, Wind & Sea cannot warrant against damage to or breakage of a umbrella caused or incurred during its use, even if such damage falls within the thirty (30) day limited warranty period.

Damage to any Wind & Sea umbrella resulting from wear and tear, misuse, exposure to the sun, heat or elements, or simply caused by the demands of the umbrella when in use, including but not limited to umbrellas that are wrecked, snapped, punctured, scraped, broken, crushed, compressed, dented, and case or straps that are broken or damaged, or any other damage or breakage of any kind that is not caused by a manufacturing or materials defect, is not covered at any time.

Wind & Sea umbrellas are manufactured to last for many years with proper care in accordance with our CARE AND HANDLING GUIDE.  Any umbrella that has not been cared for and handled in accordance with our CARE AND HANDLING GUIDE is not covered by this limited warranty. 

WARRANTY RESOLUTION

If your umbrella suffers from a manufacturing or workmanship defect and is under warranty, please contact us at (213) 293-8725 or hello@wind8sea.com.  When emailing, please include detailed explanation of issue, include clear digital photos of entire top side of umbrella, entire bottom side of umbrella and of any specific area(s) of concern.

Wind & Sea reserves the right to make final determination of the warranty status in its sole discretion.  If a defect exists, Wind & Sea will choose, in its sole discretion, whether to (1) repair the product at no charge, (2) exchange the product with a product that is functionally equivalent to the original product or (3) refund the purchase price of the product.  Wind & Sea will repair or replace the product as described above and return the product to the customer free of charge within one week or as soon thereafter as is possible.

 A replacement or repaired product assumes the remaining warranty of the original product, except that the number of whole days between the customer notifying Wind & Sea of a defect and the customer receiving a repaired or replacement product will not count against the duration of the warranty.  When a product is exchanged, any replacement item becomes the customer’s property and the replaced item becomes Wind & Sea's property.  When a refund is given, the product becomes Wind & Sea's property.

Qualified umbrellas must be returned to Wind & Sea at the customer’s expense to the address below, accompanied by the original receipt for the sale of the product, clearly showing the date of purchase.
