Defective Products

We apologize if that occurs.

For all other products, customer has 30 days upon receipt of the product to report any defect. When any defective product is reported, Medi-Stim, Inc. will first try to trouble-shoot over the phone with the customer or end-user to make sure it is not a user-error or a normal characteristic or function of the product. If the item is considered to be defective, Medi-Stim, Inc. will offer to repair or replace the product at no additional charge, and at its discretion, may issue a call tag to retrieve the product. Once the product has been received and inspected by Medi-Stim, Inc. and determined to be defective, Medi-Stim, Inc. will pay for the freight to send the repaired or replacement product back to the customer.

Product Warranties

Original warranty directly from manufacturer, if stated with product, takes first priority. Warranty periods and terms vary from one product to another. Some products do not have any warranty. Warranty does not cover damage occurred from normal wear and tear, abuse, neglect, alteration of the product, or from multiple-patient use for single-patient devices or supplies. Warranties are non-transferrable and applicable to original purchaser only. All warranted devices that Medi-Stim, Inc. sells are recorded with their serial numbers, purchase date, invoice number, and cost amount for proof of warranty effective dates. There is no warranty coverage for consumable disposable accessories that accompany the stimulator device such as batteries, lead wire cables, or electrodes unless the defect occurs or is discovered and reported to Medi-Stim, Inc. within the first 7 days after delivery. If an item is under warranty, and the item is repaired or replaced, then the warranty for that product resumes for the remaining period of time from the original warranty. If an item is no longer under warranty, then Medi-Stim, Inc. will offer customer repair estimates or replacement options. The customer is responsible for all freight charges to and from Medi-Stim, Inc., regardless of warranty coverage, unless offered otherwise by Medi-Stim, Inc. Medi-Stim, Inc. is not obligated to honor any manufacturer’s warranty or provide warranty service until Medi-Stim, Inc. receives payment in full for the purchased merchandise.
