Cosmetic perfection is not guaranteed. We do our best to ensure Forges look great, but some parts are still cut and assembled by hand. As such, small scratches, imperfect cuts on rubber, or other cosmetic flaws may be present. This is reflected in the price, and we have tried to keep the retail price as low as possible for this reason. No flaws will affect performance or functionality.
* Made in the USA – Custom parts are machined & fabricated here with assembly & testing also done in the US. Factory parts, basket/shower screen, seals, and raw metal may be made in other countries. 304 stainless certifications available for raw material upon request.
** All Forges come with a transferable Lifetime Warranty on the core of the machine. Please refer to our satisfaction guarantee for information about our policies on warranty, returns and any included guarantee.
