What's covered under Shaver Shop's warranty?
What does Shaver Shop's warranty cover?
Shaver Shop warranties combine manufacturer warranties and Australian Consumer Law (ACL) protections.
Manufacturer Warranty Coverage
Every product sold at Shaver Shop is covered by the official warranty from its brand. This includes devices like:
- Electric shavers
- Beard trimmers
- Hair clippers
- Hair styling tools
- Electric toothbrushes
- IPL devices
- Grooming accessories
Typical manufacturer warranty periods:
- Braun / Philips grooming appliances: ~2 years
- GHD styling tools: 3-year warranty (e.g., Platinum+ straightener)
- Oral care devices: usually 2 years
- Premium brands (e.g., Hydro Flask): lifetime warranty
Shaver Shop honours and facilitates all manufacturer warranties, acting as the support point so you don’t need to chase the brand yourself.
Australian Consumer Law (ACL) Coverage
Regardless of the manufacturer’s warranty, you’re protected under ACL if your product:
- Has a major fault
- Is unsafe
- Is not fit for purpose
- Fails prematurely, relative to expected lifespan
- Was misrepresented
For major failures, you may choose a full refund OR replacement.
For minor faults you will get a fast repair or replacement.
Shaver Shop explicitly confirms ACL applies to all purchases.
What’s Covered in Practice
Defects including:
- Battery failure within expected lifespan
- Motor, heating, or charging faults
- Loose/detached shaving heads not caused by misuse
- Internal wiring issues
- Manufacturing faults in blades or attachments
- Faulty chargers, docks, or accessories
If the issue is a genuine fault (not misuse or wear) Shaver Shop will remedy it.
How to claim a warranty with Shaver Shop
Shaver Shop offers two warranty claim pathways: in-store (fastest) or customer service.
1. Bring the Product to Any Shaver Shop Store (Fastest Method)
Any Shaver Shop store can process your warranty. You don’t need to return to the original store.
Bring with you:
- The faulty product
- Your receipt or proof of purchase
Staff will inspect the item immediately. Most simple claims result in:
- Instant replacement, or
- Sending the product for warranty repair
Many customers report walking in with a broken device and walking out with a new replacement within minutes.
2. Contact Shaver Shop Customer Support
If you can’t get to a store or bought online:
Phone: 1300 SHAVER (1300 742 837)

3. Assessment & Remedy
After assessment, Shaver Shop will:

Shaver Shop generally prioritises replacements to keep customers moving quickly.
4. Manufacturer “Trial Offer” Returns
Some brands (e.g. Philips, Braun) run money-back trial periods.
Shaver Shop requires customers to follow the manufacturer’s return instructions for these non-fault returns.
Generally: Faults = Shaver Shop handles it. Change-of-mind trial return = Manufacturer handles it.

Recent Shaver Shop customer warranty experiences
A Braun shaver began smoking after 17 months. Shaver Shop staff found the purchase record, acknowledged the safety issue and replaced the unit on the spot. The customer described the service as “exceptional”.
One customer with a faulty Braun cleaning system contacted customer service and received guidance and a resolution within a week. Their replacement part was delivered quickly.
A Dafni straightener “exploded” after a few years; Shaver Shop refused because it was out of warranty, but the manufacturer replaced it directly.
