Purchased a high quality Zanussi induction cooker just under 3 years ago for £829 from John Lewis. The Control Board recently developed a serious fault, which meant that the hobs could not be used at all. I tried to claim the cost of repair from John Lewis, but they have refused to settle the claim because the warranty has expired. Tried to explain that their primary obligations are those as provided by the Consumer Rights Act, but they don't understand! They're clearly liable to pay me the cost of repairs and reasonable consequential losses and damages under the Act. The warranty to a large extent is irrelevant. The cooker was advertised as high quality, as reflected in the price, and therefore, not of suitable quality as provided by s.9 of the Act. It shouldn't develop a serious fault in fewer than 3 years. I think that the problem is that John Lewis are using a third party customer services provider who are clueless. very poor service.
