Our warranty
A real warranty, not the pro-rata kind.
Most lounge brands offer a long warranty that's pro-rata: after the first year or two, more and more of the cost of a repair shifts onto you.
Your Cocoon is backed by a 25-year structural warranty and 5 full years on mechanisms, motors, covers and foam. If a manufacturing defect appears, we fix it, free. No tapering, no pro-rata, no creeping costs.
| Covered | Gainsville | Typical pro-rata warranty |
|---|---|---|
| Frame and structure | 25 years, full cover | A long headline term, pro-rata after the first year or two |
| Mechanisms and motors | 5 years, full cover | Typically 2 years |
| Covers and foam | 5 years, full cover | – |
| Who pays for a covered repair | We do, for the whole term | A growing share falls on you |
Covers manufacturing defects.
Built to last
Comfort that lasts for years.
Electric recline and headrest

No-Sag springs under D/42, D/29 and D/65 foam with an inner coil.

A real warranty — not the pro-rata kind. Your Cocoon is backed by a 25-Year Structural Warranty, plus 5 full years on everything else: leather, fabric, motors, mechanisms and electronics. If a manufacturing defect appears, we fix it — free.
Most lounge brands hide behind a “pro-rata” warranty. It sounds generous — 10, 15, 25 years — but read the fine print: after the first year or two the cost shifts increasingly onto you, until the “warranty” leaves you footing an expensive repair bill. On a recliner, those motors and mechanisms are typically covered for just two years. The Cocoon is engineered to last, and backed by five. No tapering, no pro-rata, no creeping costs — for the life of the warranty, a covered repair is ours.
An exclusive Gainsville design backed by over 60 years of expertise, available for Australia-wide delivery with delivery and assembly throughout Metro Melbourne. Visit a Melbourne showroom to experience the Cocoon in person.
