Not sure on the warranty, which is why i got it at BHPhoto with US warranty, although it was at a premium of course!

Don't be fooled. A DP2M and a DP3M ordered from this source on 3/29/14 were both gray market imports - NO USA WARRANTY. Amazon was very sorry and was going to "investigate" but there are still answers here that tell potential buyers that these have USA warranties. Amazon took them back but what a hassle!

Warranty ? Unless you bought it from a shop where you can take it back, you can forget about the warranty, Coway are dishonest. Mine broke after 5 months and they were not interested, as they're in Korea it wasn't worth the effort suing them.

Package & Manual can be written in Japanese and warranty is only valid in Japan.

I have not had a warranty issue, but would definitely expect that any reputable manufacturer, would back their product irregardless of who or what country sold it for them or. Best of luck!

I have one but have no idea about the warranty. It's a Korean company, so I doubt it. But...you should inquire about it directly!

this model is for the European and Japanese market only, so no warranty is valid in the us.

Get another replacement immediately or at least the RMA from SEIKI's hapless customer support before your 1-year warranty (from date of original purchase) runs out. Be aware that regardless of when your next replacement is received SEIKI will not provide warranty beyond original purchase date. Hopefully you are within walking distance of the Michigan facility to which your unit will need to be returned and that Seiki will cover the cost of the shipment for repair since this is a replacement (unlikely).

The booklet I have says the warranty is limited to the USA. I would call the service center at 1-800-220-5701.

Could you tell me if the place of origin has anything to do with whether or not Canon will honor the warranty? I was told by a vendor that if a canon camcorder was a "Japanese" model, Canon would not honor the warranty, and that if it was a US camcorder, they would. Is that true and how can you tell if the camcorder you buy is one or the other?

Hi. Ours came from Japan, literally. Took 3 weeks to get. Two weeks later it broke while removing it from 12v socket. No warranty available for us.

I have no idea about warranty. I would suggest emailing the manufacturer. Good luck!

Mine came with USA warranty but it probably depends on who you by it from. I have seen gray market but they seem to state it in the ad. I believe it is made in Japan.

I'd definitely recommend people NOT to by it oversea since mine has broken for 2 times within 4 months. It did not worth for the cost/time/efforts.

This model that I bought was made for the Asian market, and wad not covered by a US warranty. Amazon forced the seller to refund my full purchase price 5 months after I bought it. I would avoid buying this model.

I think it was a year or two, but warranty is valid if you use it in Japan... IF you are using it the States you don't get warranty I think. You Might want to double check with one who sales it though.

I don't know really. I live in Canada and I ordered this with a 3 years warranty, so if something went wrong I would just take it to Future Shop where I got it from.

Not really US model but came with warranty. I am not sure about US warranty.
