Refund & Warranty Policy
Every commercial kitchen investment deserves absolute clarity. We stand behind our machinery with a comprehensive 1-Year Commercial Warranty and a clear, structured return protocol.
Covers motors, transmissions, gearboxes, and electrical contactors against manufacturer defects.
Inspect your crating upon delivery from Port Klang and report any transit issues within 7 calendar days.
Direct factory parts support from Pure Support Sdn Bhd and D&S Exports engineers.
1. 7-Day Arrival Inspection & Transit Claims
Because commercial foodservice machinery involves heavy crating and specialized freight logistics, we require all buyers to perform a visual and functional inspection upon handover:
- Visual Crating Check: Inspect the wooden pallet, carton, or protective shrink-wrap before signing the driver's delivery manifest. If obvious exterior damage is observed, make a clear note on the delivery receipt.
- 7-Day Notification: If concealed physical damage, missing components, or shipping discrepancies are discovered after uncrating, notify us within seven (7) calendar days of receiving delivery via email (order@nextkitchen.com.my) or WhatsApp (+60 16-274 3907) with photographs of the unit and its serial number plate.
2. Return & Exchange Eligibility Criteria
To qualify for a commercial return or replacement:
- The item must be unused, uninstalled, and free from food contact. Machinery that has been plumbed, hard-wired into power, or operated with food ingredients cannot be accepted for return due to food safety hygiene standards.
- The equipment must retain all original packaging, crating pallets, user manuals, accessories, and certification tags.
- Custom-built equipment, special overseas indent imports, or tender models explicitly designated as non-returnable prior to purchase are eligible for warranty servicing only.
- Approved returns for client change-of-mind (e.g. incorrect equipment sizing chosen by buyer) may incur a 15% restocking fee to cover warehouse inspection and recrating, plus actual round-trip freight charges.
