What are express warranties?

Express warranties are explicit promises or guarantees made by a seller about the quality, functionality, or characteristics of a product. These warranties are typically stated in writing or verbally and can include specific details about performance, durability, or other attributes. If the product fails to meet these stated assurances, the buyer may have legal grounds for a claim against the seller for breach of warranty. Express warranties are distinct from implied warranties, which are automatically considered to exist based on the nature of the transaction.
