The legendary King Arthur brandished a magic sword,
Excalibur, from which we take our company name. With
this unique weapon in his hands, he could not be vanquished.
Although Excalibur Electronics can’t claim the magical
secrets of Merlin, King Arthur’s court wizard, sometimes
our patented technology may make it seem as if we could.
Brew Master is another unmatched innovation of

EXCALIBUR ELECTRONICS, INC.,
warrants to the original consumer that its
products are free from any electrical or
mechanical defects for a period of 90
DAYS from the date of purchase. If any
such defect is discovered within the warranty period, EXCALIBUR ELECTRONICS, INC., will repair or replace
the unit free of charge upon receipt of
the unit, shipped postage prepaid and
insured to the factory address shown at
right.
The warranty covers normal consumer
use and does not cover damage that
occurs in shipment or failure that results
from alterations, accident, misuse,
abuse, neglect, wear and tear, inadequate
maintenance, commercial use, or unreasonable use of the unit. Removal of the
top panel voids all warranties. This warranty does not cover cost of repairs made
or attempted outside of the factory.
Any applicable implied warranties,
including warranties of merchantability
and fitness, are hereby limited to 90
DAYS from the date of purchase.
Consequential or incidental damages
resulting from a breach of any applicable
express or implied warranties are hereby excluded. Some states do not allow
limitations on the duration of
implied warranties and do
not allow exclusion of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations and exclusions in
these instances may not
apply.
