Cultural Tip
In France, consumer law provides a mandatory "garantie légale de conformité" of two years for all new goods. Companies often add a commercial warranty on top of that. When you say "Le produit est garanti", you are usually referring to the commercial warranty, so it’s good to specify the duration (e.g., "garanti deux ans"). Also, avoid mixing up the feminine form "garantie" unless the noun is feminine (e.g., "la garantie").
