Warranty's synonyms
guarantee
A guarantee is a promise or assurance, especially in writing, that a product is of a certain quality or will perform in a certain way. It is a formal pledge by a manufacturer or seller to repair or replace a product if it fails to meet specified standards within a certain time frame.
Example: The manufacturer provides a 2-year guarantee for this product.
Note: The term 'guarantee' is often used interchangeably with 'warranty,' but some may argue that a guarantee is more focused on the assurance of quality or performance, while a warranty is more about the terms and conditions of repair or replacement.
promise
A promise is a declaration or assurance that one will do a particular thing or that a particular thing will happen. In the context of products or services, a promise may involve commitments regarding quality, performance, or after-sales support.
Example: The company made a promise to provide free repairs for the first year.
Note: While a warranty or guarantee is often a formal agreement with specific terms and conditions, a promise may be more informal and may not always have legal implications or enforceability.
assurance
Assurance refers to a positive declaration intended to give confidence. It conveys a sense of certainty or confidence in the reliability or quality of a product or service, often related to guarantees or promises made by the manufacturer or seller.
Example: The extended warranty provides assurance that any defects will be fixed at no extra cost.
Note: Assurance is more about instilling confidence or trust in the consumer regarding the performance or quality of a product, whereas a warranty may have specific terms and conditions regarding repairs or replacements.
