What? A month? Sale of goods act.
- retSava 6y agoSorry, don't where you're at. Over here, it's commonly a month return policy of most stores (no law setting this, it's a voluntary thing). Then there's quite generous warranty for 2 years, up to 3 years, but that's when things break. In addition, I think this also includes if a sold item is unfit for advertised use, or perhaps even if substantially changed during ownership (eg Samsung mandatorily introducing ads), but I've never had to use that so don't know).

A TV manufacturer should guarantee that the TV will not develop a manufacturing defect for a minimum of 3 years, if not longer. I have CRTs that lasted decades (plural) without issue, while I've had multiple LCDs fail in under a decade. There's nothing generous going on here, they're systematically making inferior products in order to drive an increase in sales.
