PFAFF Warranty Coverage
Pfaff quilting machines are precision-built and backed by a tiered warranty that gives you the strongest coverage in the first 90 days and solid parts protection for five years beyond that.
- First 90 Days — Full parts and labor covered, no charge
- Mechanical Parts — 5-year warranty — free replacement parts, customer pays labor and shipping
- Electronic & Electrical Components — 5-year warranty — free replacement parts, customer pays labor and shipping
- Sewing Head Casting — 10-year limited warranty against casting or machining imperfections
Pfaff’s warranty is structured in tiers. The first 90 days are the most comprehensive — full parts and labor at no charge. After that, Pfaff covers replacement parts but labor and shipping costs fall to the customer. The 10-year casting warranty covers the sewing head only and does not extend to mechanical or electrical parts. Important: the 5-year electronics warranty is void if the machine is left plugged in when not in use. Warranty issues should be submitted first to the authorized Pfaff retailer who completed your service and training. Authorized retailers may offer their own warranties in addition to the manufacturer’s.
Start with your authorized Pfaff retailer for all warranty service — they’re trained in technical service and are your first point of contact.
