-the legal guarantee against hidden defects resulting from a defect in the material, design or workmanship affecting the products delivered and rendering them unfit for use (Article 1641 et seq. of the French Civil Code).

Article L217-9 of the French Consumer Code: In case of lack of conformity, the Customer can choose between the repair or the replacement of the goods. However, the Seller may not proceed with the Customer's choice if this choice involves a manifestly disproportionate cost in relation to the other method, given the value of the item or the significance of the defect.

Article L217.10 of the French Consumer Code: If the repair and replacement of the goods is impossible, the Customer may return the goods and have the price refunded or keep the goods and have part of the price refunded.

  2. Or if this solution cannot be provided without major disadvantage to the latter in view of the nature of the goods and the use they seek to make of them.

However, the contract cannot be deemed to be rescinded if the lack of conformity is minor.

Article L217-12 of the French Consumer Code: The action resulting from the lack of conformity lapses two years from the delivery of the goods.

Article L217-13 of the French Consumer Code: The provisions of this section do not deprive the Customer of the right to exercise the action resulting from prohibitive defects according to Articles 1641 to 1649 of the French Civil Code or any other action of a contractual or non-contractual nature that is recognised by law.

Article 1641 of the French Civil Code: The Seller is bound by the guarantee relating to hidden defects of the goods sold which make it unfit for the use for which it is intended, or which  diminish this use, or that the Customer would not have purchased it, or would have applied a lower price, if they had known about them.

Article 1648, paragraph 1 of the French Civil Code: The action resulting from prohibitive defects must be brought by the Customer within two years from the discovery of the said defect.

The guarantor of the defects of the item sold is KSGB EUROPE whose registered office is located at 49 Rue du Dauphiné, 69800 SAINT PRIEST, France.

When acting as a legal guarantee of conformity, the Customer has a period of 2 years from the delivery of the goods to act, and can choose between the repair or replacement of the goods, subject to the cost conditions provided for in Article L. 217-9 of the French Consumer Code, and is exempted from providing proof of the existence of the lack of conformity of the goods during the 24 months following the delivery of the good. The legal guarantee of conformity applies irrespective of any commercial guarantee that may be granted.
