BRABATIA 10 YEARS GUARANTEE FALSE

I bought a BRABATIA for ironing boarding for R1200.00 thinking that I will never again buy an ironing board since BRABATIA has a 10 years guarantee. The ironing board broke, then I took it back to the shop (BOARDMANS - BROOKLYN, Pta) when I got there the manager refused to give me a new one. I then asked how this 10 yrs guarantee works? He could answer me, and he promised to call the manufacturers and get back to me. 2 days passed and I went to do a follow-up, when I got there he said himself and his line manager concluded that they wont give me another ironing board. I called the head office of BRABATIA and they said I should go to the store and collect a new ironing board. when I got to the store, the manager then only called BRABATIA head office and in the conversation he gives them a statement that he cannot proof, by saying the ironing board was forcefully damaged. When I asked him if he can proof what he is saying, he couldn't answer me.
