The sale and installation of a stairlift are contracts for work and services that can be revoked within 14 days. This was decided by the Federal Court of Justice (BGH) following a complaint by a consumer advice center against a distributor of curved stairlifts.<\/p>\n
In this case, the distributor of curved stairlifts had not granted its customers a statutory right of withdrawal - except for one model. The consumer association (plaintiff) saw this as a violation of competition law, among other things, and filed an action for injunctive relief with the regional court. Without success. The Higher Regional Court also rejected the plaintiff's appeal.<\/p>\n
However, the BGH took a different view: it overturned the judgment of the Higher Regional Court on the plaintiff's appeal and ordered the distributor of curved stairlifts to cease and desist. Background: The consumer advice center had filed a lawsuit because customers had reported \"planning errors\", \"safety deficiencies\" or \"inadequate service\" in connection with the installation of stairlifts, among other things.<\/p>\n
