UK Law on Electrical Goods
Discussion
Long story short. Bought a Combi oven of £100 or more from a well known electrical retailer, lets just say call them Balti/Korma/Vindaloo
Just over a year and a bit on and it sparked before dying on it's rear. Not even switching on. Checked fuse and still not working.
Now I have no idea what warranty it came with, whether it was one year or two years.
But basically even if it was £100 surely I could expect better than a year or two out of it.
I seem to remember a law which stated goods need to be fit for purpose for six years. Was this amended and whats my best course of action.
Take it back to Balti/Korma/Vindaloo shop or write to the manufacturer.
I could buy another no problem as money is not really an issue but then why should I when goods should be expected to work for longer than a year or two.
