  Footnotes 1 and 2: In most EU member states, consumers may only claim for defects that were present on delivery. There are some exceptions including Czech Republic and Romania. The burden to prove that the defect existed on delivery generally shifts to the consumer after the expiry of a period of 6 months from date of delivery. Examples of countries where the burden of proof does not shift include Czech Republic, Portugal and Romania. Please contact your local European Consumer Centre for details of the position in your country. During the claim period (see above), consumers may claim, among other things, free repair or replacement where a product does not correspond to the contract. Some EU member states, including Finland, Ireland, UK, Netherlands and Sweden, have a claim period that is longer than 2 years from date of delivery. Please contact your local European Consumer Centre for details of the position in your country.

  In my country (belgium), it doesn't just cover manufacturing defects but all instances of "non-conformity", meaning discrepancies between the advertised product and the delivered product. This makes sellers responsible for accurate representation of the product they're selling. One gotcha is that you have to be unaware of the nonconformity at the moment of making the purchase. So manufacturing defects are not covered if they are documented to the buyer ahead of the sale.
