Warranty Claims for Quality-Related Issues
All quality-related defects on items sold directly by Athom, starting from the date of purchase (see top of page for your product’s warranty timeline).
Athom's limited warranty is restricted to the country of purchase. The limited warranty is void on items taken outside the country they were originally bought in or shipped to directly from an authorized online purchase.
For quality-related warranty claims, items will be replaced with a factory refurbished model of equal value when available, otherwise a new item will be sent. In situations where a replacement is not an available or preferred option, Athom will offer a partial refund according to the usage time of the device.
Warranties on all replacements follow the same warranty timeframe of the original defective item, or 3 months after being replaced, whichever is longer. Warranties on products are void after having been fully refunded.
Process:
-
Buyer must provide sufficient proof of purchase
-

-
The defective item’s serial number and/or visible proof depicting the defect are required
-
It may be necessary to return an item for quality inspection

For defective items that Athom needs to have returned, warranties on those replacements are voided if the wrong item is returned to Athom or if the defective item is not returned.

Order number from online purchases made through Athom

Please note that more than one type of proof of purchase may be required to process a warranty claim (such as receipt of money transfer and confirmation of address item was originally shipped to).
