Why You Need the Guardsman Protection Plan for Your Recliner
Why You Need the Guardsman Protection Plan for Your Recliner
A recliner is one of the key pieces of furniture in your home. It’s your sanctuary for catching up with friends, and simply for enjoying a peaceful evening after a long day. So, it’s worthwhile keeping it in top condition, ensuring you can relax and recline for years to come.
It’s important to note that spills and accidents do happen, especially if you have small children in your life. Scratches and accidents from pets are also a risk, as well as general wear and tear from everyday life. Any of these can make your chair’s fabric look worse for wear, whether from stains, scratches or discolouration.
That’s why we offer the Guardsman Protection Plan. It offers the ultimate solution, providing comprehensive coverage and expert restoration services that give recliner owners complete peace of mind, knowing that their comfort investment is fully protected.
What is the Guardsman Protection Plan
The Guardsman Protection Plan is a comprehensive furniture care package designed to help protect your recliner against unexpected accidents that can happen to anyone, resulting in stains or damage to your chair.
This professional service extends beyond standard warranties, offering complete coverage for both accidental staining and physical damage, covering common scenarios like:
● Food spillages
● Stains from drinks like red wine and coffee
● Ink stains, such as from pens or paint
● Make up and toiletry stains
● Cigarette burns
● Scratches, bites and chews from pets
● Pulled threads
Unlike basic warranties that only address manufacturing defects, Guardsman's protection extends to real-world incidents that occur during everyday use, ensuring your recliner remains pristine, whatever accidents might happen.
What Does the Guardsman Protection Plan Cover?
Accidental Stains
No matter if it's a splash of coffee, a drop of red wine, or an unexpected spill of soup or curry, the Guardsman Protection Plan has you covered. It also protects against accidental damage caused by people or pets, including spills and stains. Whether you're dealing with fabric or leather upholstery, the plan ensures complete stain protection.
Accidental Damage
The plan also offers protection from accidental damage caused by rips, tears and burns. Whether it’s fabric snagged on a belt buckle, or scuffs and scratches simply from everyday tear, the plan has you covered with expert repair. It also protects against pet damage including scratches, bites and chewing, as well as protecting against thread pulls in fabric upholstery. Whatever the reason for the accidental damage, the Guardsman Protection Plan ensures that your recliner looks as good as new for years to come.
Frame and Mechanism Damage
Your recliner is also protected against damaged mechanisms, including reclining and power features, that are the result of an accident. It’s also protected against the breakage of frames, springs and interior components that are damaged in an accident, as well as excessive loss of resilience in interior fillings after the first year, ensuring your recliner maintains its comfort and support.
Specialist Repairs
Sometimes accidents do happen, which is where the Guardsman Protection Plan comes in. An expert stain removal or repair technician will try to repair the damage, and if it can’t be repaired, Guardsman will source replacement parts – or even the entire piece of furniture, if parts are unavailable.
Things to bear in mind
While the Guardsman Protection Plan ensures that any repairs or stain removal will be done quickly and efficiently, there are some suggestions to follow to get the most out of both your recliner and your protection plan:
● Not using a protection plan: Skipping this protection leaves you exposed to repairs or complete replacement costs.
● Ignoring accidents: If there is an accidental rip, tear or spillage, be sure to report it to Guardsman right away, as delayed claims may not be covered by your plan.
● Not following care instructions: Always look after your recliner according to the manufacturer instructions. If you use improper cleaning methods, any damage may not be covered by the plan’s terms and conditions.
