If the Purchaser signs the accompanying document of the Goods without any remarks, it is assumed that the Goods had no transport damage or defects at the time of delivery.
5.4. When concluding the Sales Contract and placing the Order, the Purchaser is aware that due to wood being a natural material, the details made of the same type of wood by using the same processing, may have colour differences or other deviations.

The quality terms of the Goods are described in the ordering environment of the Vendor at standwood.com/tooteinfo.
5.5. In the event of the substandard quality or non-conformity of the Goods with the Contract, which the Purchaser could not have immediately noticed when accepting the Goods, the Purchaser must notify the Vendor thereof at least in a format which can be reproduced in writing immediately, but no later than within five (5) business days after the time when the Purchaser became or should reasonably have become aware
of the defect. Complaints regarding the Goods must be submitted to the store that sold the Goods at least in a format which can be reproduced in writing.
5.6. Upon detecting the Goods with substandard quality or not conforming with the Contract, the Purchaser has the right to request the presence of the Vendor’s representative to document the defect of the Goods. If the Vendor’s representative wishes to examine the alleged defect of the Goods, the Purchaser undertakes to allow the Vendor’s representative to examine the Goods during regular working hours. The Parties document the findings of the inspection of the Goods in a bilaterally signed document.
5.7. In the event of disagreement of the Parties, they may involve an independent expert. The expert appointed is the person previously approved by both Parties. The cost of the expert assessment will be paid by the Party against whom the decision is made.
5.8. When it occurs that the Vendor has sold to the Purchaser Goods with substandard quality, the Vendor has the right to eliminate the defect of the Goods or replace the Goods with substandard quality. Upon non conformity of the Goods with the Contract, the Vendor will replace the delivered product with the proper one. The Vendor has the right to replace the Goods or eliminate the non-conformity within seven (7) business days after receiving relevant notice or the result of the expert analysis specified in clause 5.7.
5.9. If the Vendor fails to eliminate the defect of the Goods or replace them during the term agreed in the preceding clause, the Purchaser has the right to reduce the purchase price when accepting defective goods (section 112 of the Law of Obligations Act) or return defective goods to the Vendor (withdraw from the Order); in case of the latter, the Vendor will reimburse the Purchaser the cost of Goods.
5.10. The Vendor is not liable for such defects of the sold Goods that were known to the Purchaser at the time of making the purchase or that must have been known to the Purchaser at the time of placing the Order (purchasing goods discounted due to substandard quality, etc.).
5.11. Upon delivery of defective Goods, the Vendor is only responsible for potential direct material damage to the Purchaser that may arise.
5.12. The Vendor’s liability upon delivering the Goods non-compliant with the terms of the Contract is limited to twice the cost of the Goods supplied, except for the harm to health caused due to the defect of the Goods or in cases where delivery of the defective Goods constitutes intentional breach of Contract by the Vendor.
