⚖️ Seller Warranty & Marketplace Dispute Conciliation

Warranty should be claimed if the pad exhibits evident manufacturing defects, such as premature detachment of the hook-and-loop fastener or foam without improper use, tearing of the foam not caused by misuse, or if the pad's structure is deformed from the factory, preventing its correct and safe use. Refer to the seller's warranty and marketplace return policy for details.
