Warranty
We aim to make the entire warranty process clear, concise and as efficient as we can make it. If you would like to arrange a return under warranty or you are unsure if your product is covered under our warranty terms, please contact our customer service team at hello@riiroo.com where they will endeavour to quickly resolve your issue/s. They do this by asking a few questions to determine eligibility as well as the difficulty in repair.
Most warranty claims are resolved by sending parts out, however, some do require that you send your item back to us for repair. Please refer to our returns & refunds page for more details on the procedure we employ for returns and repairs. *It is important to stress that our warranty on its outset covers parts & labour, where we first attempt to resolve the fault by sending parts out and if unsuccessful we will then arrange a return for repair depending on the circumstances your location. If your item is non-reparable do not worry, we will offer you a refurbished model in place of this so your child can still enjoy their ride on

We have been hard at work in creating materials which will help educate in the maintenance as well as the use of these products, if we are lacking in something which you think we should cover, we encourage you to get in touch with us and let us know what we can do better.
Regular maintenance along with correct use will make these products last for years in the family so please make sure you follow our guidelines where possible so we can make this a reality and make sure future generations get as much use out of these incredible products as possible.
We aim to make most parts available to purchase online so even if something does go wrong, we aim to get you up and running as quickly as possible. We aim to do this for two reasons;
- We don’t want our products to end up in a landfill
- We don’t want to lose your respect. What would you think of us if you spend £150 on a ride-on and 2 years down the line you have no option but to bin it because you can’t find the parts required to put it right? You wouldn’t think much of us, that what. So we need your help to make this a reality and we endeavour to do our utmost to simplify the process as well as make the parts available online.
If currently, you find yourself in the above position, please get in touch with our customer service team and explain where the issues are and what parts are required to put it right.
We will then aim to either import those parts or point you in the right direction to obtain them. Please make sure you provide our team with as much information as possible (photographs of parts are encouraged) so we avoid back and forths ;).
If there are any questions which we have not covered here or you are unsure on anything we have mentioned above, please get in touch with us! :)
