The more you use something, the quicker it’ll wear down, and it’s only a matter of time before you’ll have to throw it out and pay for a replacement. That is, unless the product comes with a lifetime warranty. Some beloved American-made brands are famous for their lifetime warranties, but it may surprise you to learn about other companies that offer lesser-known lifetime warranties as well. These warranties usually cover the cost of repairs and replacements and are often provided no questions asked. Here are seven unexpected products with lifetime warranties.
Briggs & Riley
The more you travel, the more that backpacks and suitcases take a beating. This could result in broken buckles and gaping holes that make the bag largely useless. That’s not a concern with products sold by Briggs & Riley, however, a company renowned for their lifetime guarantee. This luggage company promises to repair any bag damaged or broken for free, and you don’t even need to provide proof of purchase. The company has partnered with an extensive network of repair centers around the world, so check right here to find out if there’s one near you.
Patagonia
Patagonia makes some of the most stylish and effective outdoor clothing available today. Even better, the company’s Ironclad Guarantee ensures 100% customer satisfaction for all its jackets, fleeces, and more. If you’re not entirely satisfied with the quality of your Patagonia purchase, contact the company or visit a nearby store, and they’ll provide you with a repair, replacement, or refund. This warranty also extends to Patagonia products you love; the company will gladly repair any products that suffer from general wear and tear at a reasonable charge, thus extending the life of your favorite jacket.
Manduka
In the yoga world, few companies produce a more premium product than Manduka, with yoga mats being second to none. But if your yoga mat begins to show its age over time and doesn’t perform like it once did, then Manduka has you covered with their Lifetime Guarantee. This warranty covers any Manduka PRO, PROlite, or PRO Travel mat purchased directly from the company. If your mat begins to underperform, contact the company and request a replacement. After reviewing the request, they’ll be sure to send you a new yoga mat if the claim is justified.

Davek
Umbrellas take an absolute beating, getting smashed between car doors and getting blown inside out by a strong wind. Thankfully, the umbrella manufacturer Davek has you covered. This company’s “Forever Guarantee” promises to swap out an old umbrella for a new one if it fails to function properly at any time. All you have to do is register the Davek umbrella on their website after you buy it, and you’ll be covered in the event that it falls victim to the elements.
Tupperware
You probably have tons of Tupperware scattered throughout your kitchen right now, but did you know that a Limited Lifetime Warranty may also cover those products? If your Tupperware chips, cracks, or warps through normal use, then contact them and explain the situation — just be prepared to provide photographic or video evidence if they ask you for it. After reviewing your claim, the company should either replace the affected item or issue a credit toward a future Tupperware purchase.
Le Creuset
Le Creuset is one of the more elegant and trustworthy brands in the kitchenware space. While the products are built to last, many items are also covered by a lifetime limited warranty, including the brand’s enameled cast-iron and stoneware products. If you notice any naturally occurring defects, contact Le Creuset, and you’ll receive a replacement so that you can start cooking again in no time.
Jostens
Jostens is a jewelry manufacturer responsible for crafting everything from high school class mementos to Super Bowl championship rings. If you’re the original owner of any Jostens ring, then you’re entitled to take advantage of the company’s lifetime limited warranty. This, of course, assumes that you’ve never had the jewelry worked on by any other company. If you meet the criteria for this warranty, then you’re entitled to free ring re-sizings, restorations of the original finish, and repairs to fix any imperfections.
