# Bloomingdale's Warranty Details Field Guide

> Manufacturer's X-year limited / international warranty /limited lifetime warranty. Max character limit of 254 characters (including spaces).

**Warranty Details** is an optional text attribute on the Bloomingdale's marketplace that states the manufacturer's warranty for an item: a limited warranty for a set number of years, an international warranty or a limited lifetime warranty. It is available in every category, it sits on the parent listing so every color and size of a style shares one value, and it shows on the product detail page where shoppers compare items before they buy.

Leave it empty when the product carries no warranty. An empty value is not a defect and Bloomingdale's does not review the field, but a wrong value is a customer service problem later.

## The rules

| Rule | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Required | No |
| Level | Parent listing, shared by all variants |
| Maximum length | 254 characters, spaces included |
| Content | The warranty term and type, as the manufacturer states it |

Keep the value to one phrase that names the length and the type of coverage. Bloomingdale's own description gives the shape: "Manufacturer's 2-year limited warranty", "International warranty", "Limited lifetime warranty". Osello recommends against adding conditions, registration steps or contact details; those belong on your own site and in the packaging, and they push the field toward the 254-character limit.

Never state a warranty you cannot honor or one that differs from the printed warranty card. Do not use the field for return policy text, care instructions or marketing claims such as "built to last".

## Examples

| Value | Verdict | Reason |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Manufacturer's 2-year limited warranty | Good | Term and type, nothing else |
| Limited lifetime warranty | Good | Matches the manufacturer's wording |
| International warranty, 5 years | Good | Coverage scope and term in one phrase |
| This watch is guaranteed against defects. Register at our website within 30 days to activate coverage and keep your receipt. | Weak | A paragraph of conditions rather than the warranty itself |
| Lifetime | Weak | Says nothing about whether it is limited or what the manufacturer covers |
| 30-day returns | Weak | A return policy, not a warranty |

## Common mistakes

- Filling it for products that have no manufacturer warranty, usually by copying a template value across a catalog.
- Writing a different term on Bloomingdale's than the one printed on the warranty card.
- Pasting the full warranty terms and hitting the character limit mid-sentence.
- Repeating the warranty in the [description](/marketplaces/bloomingdales/fields/description) and in the [highlights](/marketplaces/bloomingdales/fields/highlights) as well, so the copies drift apart over time.

## How Osello fills this field

Osello treats Warranty Details as an optional, parent-level text field with a 254-character cap. When the field is filled by AI, Osello reads the product description and attributes for a stated warranty, writes it as one short phrase and leaves the field blank when the source never mentions one. Because the value lives on the parent listing, it is set once per style and applies to every variant. You can also type the value yourself or set it through [custom instructions](/help/ai-prompts/custom-instructions) when your whole catalog carries the same warranty.

The rest of the Bloomingdale's attributes are listed in the [Bloomingdale's field directory](/marketplaces/bloomingdales/fields).

## Frequently asked questions

### Is Warranty Details required on Bloomingdale's?

No. It is optional in every category. Fill it only when the manufacturer offers a warranty you can honor, and leave it blank otherwise.

### Can the warranty differ by color or size?

No. The field lives on the parent listing, so one value covers every variant of the style. If one version of a product carries a different warranty, list it as a separate style.

### Should I include the warranty conditions?

Osello recommends no. The field holds 254 characters and is meant for the term and type, such as "Manufacturer's 3-year limited warranty". Conditions and registration steps belong with the product packaging and on your own site.

### Does Bloomingdale's check the warranty text?

The field is free text and Bloomingdale's does not validate it beyond the character limit. What you write is what shoppers read, so match it to the printed warranty exactly.
