Do you really know? - Does a 'lifetime guarantee' really mean for life?

Does a 'lifetime guarantee' really mean for life?

03/14/24 • 4 min

Do you really know?

In this age of responsible and measured consumption, we’re tending to turn more and more towards products with a long lifespan and a good guarantee. In fact, you’ve probably already seen this on a cast-iron saucepan, a bicycle or even household appliances, promising a lifetime guarantee. But the terms and conditions of this promise are not always very clear.

Therefore, it’s important to understand the difference between a genuine and a fake lifetime guarantee, and how to spot the signs of trust and transparency from brands.

What does it mean legally speaking? Can I have my product repaired until I die? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

Why do mouth sounds drive some people crazy?

Why does Ramadan start on a different date each year?

How can I move house stress-free?

Could zero dates make your love life more efficient?

In early 2023, dating site Eharmony released findings from a survey of over 1000 singletons. The research found that on average they spent 55 minutes per day logged in to the dating app, with six conversations on the go at the same time. Despite that, as many as 70% of those surveyed felt heavy dating app usage had a negative impact on their mental health.

Spending so much energy on dating can get overwhelming, but fear not. I'm here to tell you about a solution which could help you take back control of your love life: the zero date. The idea was invented back in 2018 by American entrepreneur Christina Wallace.

What’s it all about then? What’s the difference between a zero date and a regular first date then? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
