Kettle purchased at game

I bought a Bennett 1.7 classique glass kettle in September 2023.The kettle is mow faulty and I return it to the store today.They are telling me to wait for 21 days before I can get exchange or refund as it needs to be assessed. I have purchased at game before I never had an issue like this.My concern is that no one explained to me this when I purchased the item at the store ,now I am reffered to the manual, do I read the manual when I buy at the store without anyone explaining to the customer?otherwise I would have bought some other brand.I dont have a kettle now and I cannot wait for 21 days its too long.I need a kettle ASAP.I dont have a relationship with the supplier not sure why Game is referring me to the supplier as I am their customer not Bennett.

Hi Nolwaze, thank you for getting in touch. I'm sorry, your kettle is faulty. If an item is faulty within the manufacturer's warranty, it will have to be assessed by them to determine what the fault is. It is important to read the manual as the warranty t's and c's are in it.

Good day, it is not the first time I purchase a kettle at Game.I bought Russell hobs before and was replaced without being assessed.One customer also returned a kettle same time as me yesterday, he was given an option to have it replaced. They told me this specific brand has to be assessed if not returned after 14 days.No has told me this when I purchased the kettle, whi reads the manual instore before buying?because if I new I would have not purchased that brand.I dont have a kettle and I cannot wait for 21 days,can someone help me and replace the kettle please and also train your staff to advise the customers during the purchase and bot after .

Regards
Game
