Warranty conditions

Our warranty terms apply individually for each country. Learn more on our warranty terms for the EU and Switzerland. For further information on other countries please contact us: info@ergobag.de

FOND OF GmbH provides a two-year warranty on material and workmanship for all backpacks from the date of purchase. The warranty is valid within the territory of the European Union and Switzerland.

The legal warranty rights of the buyer (replacement, withdrawal or reduction as well as damages if applicable under Section 437 et seq of the German Civil Code (Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch or BGB)) are not limited under this warranty but may be exercised independently of this warranty against the retailer (seller).

If the buyer finds material or manufacturing defects within the two-year warranty period and returns the product to the retailer or directly to FOND OF GmbH prior to expiration of the warranty, FOND OF GmbH will correct the defect or replace the product with a defect-free product. FOND OF GmbH has the right to decide on the nature of the corrective action. FOND OF GmbH will cover all costs incurred in correcting the defect as such but no other costs that may arise in connection with the warranty claim, such as transport or shipping costs for example.

The warranty does not cover normal wear and tear or damage caused by improper handling, accidents or extreme temperatures. Also excluded under the warranty are the accessories listed below, which are subject only to legal warranty rights: sports backpacks, sports bags, gym bags, hard pencil cases, soft pencil cases, rain capes, Styler boxes, TripleFlex folder boxes, folder boxes, laptop cases, drinking bottles, neck pouches, pencil cases incl. contents, safety sets, Kletties, wallets, goodie bags.

In the event of a warranty claim, the warranty period is not extended for a further two years. The warranty is always valid for a limited period of two years calculated from the date of purchase.

When filing a warranty claim, the buyer must submit a purchase receipt from the retailer (invoice or cash register receipt) indicating the date of purchase. Technical modifications to the product may be made without notice.





Warranty conditions

General and warranty

We, FOND OF GmbH, grant a two-year manufacturer’s warranty on the workmanship and material of all ergobag school bags from the date of purchase. You can extend the warranty period up to two additional years, by filling out and sending us the form linked in our ergobag Online Shop (www.ergobag.de) under »Service (Warranty)« within the first two years from the date of purchase. The warranty applies within the EU and Switzerland and within the personal scope if you, as a consumer, have purchased a ergobag school bag within the meaning of Section 13 of the German Civil Code. Your statutory rights as a consumer in the event of defects (subsequent performance, withdrawal or reduction as well as, if applicable, damages in accordance with Sections 437 et seq. German Civil Code) are not limited by this warranty, but can be asserted against the respective dealer (seller) independently and free of charge. If you identify material or processing defects within the warranty period and return the ergobag school bag to the respective dealer or directly to us before the warranty expires, we will rectify the defect in question or replace the ergobag school bag with a defect-free product. We make the decision on how to remedy the defects. We will cover the costs incurred for rectifying defects as well as any shipping costs incurred. We will not assume any other costs that may also arise in connection with the warranty claim, such as costs for shipping packaging. The warranty does not cover normal wear and tear and damage caused by improper handling, accidents or extreme temperatures. All accessories of the ergobag school bags to which only the statutory warranty rights apply are excluded from the warranty, in particular: Leisure backpacks, duffle bags, gym bags, pencil cases and rolls incl. filling, rain capes, folder boxes, drinking bottles, neck pouches, hangies, kletties, zippies, school cone, umbrellas and reflective stickers. Please note that the ergobag school bag may deform due to external influences such as a washing cycle in the dishwasher or washing machine or strong force from above, such as sitting on it, causing it to lose its stability. In addition, the deformed body can lead to the inability to open/close your school bag (pack/cubo/maxi/cubo light) properly. In these cases, our warranty does not apply, as it is a case of incorrect handling. In the event of a warranty claim, the warranty period will not be extended. The warranty is always valid from the date of purchase and is limited to the two- or four-year term calculated from the date of purchase.

Making a warranty claim

In the event of a warranty claim, please contact us as the guarantor:

FOND OF GmbH Vitalisstraße 67 50827 Köln info@ergobag.de +49 (0) 221 9567 3230

To make a warranty claim, you must first provide details of your ergobag schoolbag by e-mail, telephone or directly using the online contact form provided. These details include the proof of purchase (invoice or receipt), a description of the damage, photos of the damage and the personal address of the applicant. Approximately 1–2 working days after submitting the form, you will receive a reply from us by e-mail in which the warranty case is qualified and the further procedure is explained.

Procedure in the event of a warranty claim

If all the necessary information is provided, you will receive a return label from us to return the ergobag school bag to us in the original box or suitable packaging. The school bag will be inspected and repaired approx. 1–2 working days after receipt of the return. If the defect in the product is irreparable, you will be contacted again by e-mail and informed of your right to a replacement product.

Questions and answers about our models

This year we not only worked on new designs, but also gave all our models a general overhaul. Here are the most important questions and answers.


Why are the ergobag pack and ergobag cubo available with and without side pockets?

We questioned our models in terms of functions, listened to our little wearers and decided as a result: We want to make our school bags even better. One change concerns the side pockets, which before the fall-winter 2022 collection were purchased items and could be attached with a zip. The pack and cubo models now have firmly sewn-on side pockets.

Why do the models of the new season sometimes cost more than the old models?

The products now have a new practical feature with the side pockets. Due to additional material and the rising raw material prices worldwide, we had to raise the prices in some cases.

How do the ergobag pack and cubo sets of the old and the new collection differ from each other?

The components in the sets have remained the same, but since the 2022/23 collection, the side pockets have been firmly sewn on. If you choose a pack or cubo from the previous season, you will also receive a side pocket set, thus retaining a certain flexibility.

What is included in the ergobag cubo light set?

Since the cubo light model does not have any firmly sewn-on side pockets, we include these with the set so that you can zip them on. So you have no disadvantage compared to the cubos and packs, which have sewn-on side pockets from the 2022 autumn/winter collection.

What has been improved on the models?

Our product development team has not only designed new, great colors, but also completely overhauled all our models. The result of the pack is a complete facelift with a newly designed floor pan, which triggers an ergonomic advantage. We have optimized smaller and larger components on the entire carrying system. This applies in particular to the shoulder strap, the hip belt and the back plate. The goal, namely even more comfort and better fit and ergonomics, has thus been achieved. We have also integrated a compartment in the pack's lid for further organization and added a second loop for hangies.

Which side pockets match the color of my backpack?

Our zip sets are primarily used for better visibility, which is why they are only available in selected colors and do not match all of our backpack designs.

When will my dream school backpack be available again?

Normally we add a date when the respective school-backpacks will be available again. You can also subscribe to our Stock Alert and you will then receive an email notification of availability. Of course there are also discontinued models, these will not be returned to our shop, but could still be available from our dealers.

Why aren't my side pockets holding up?

It can happen that the side pockets don't hold up if they are loaded too heavily.
