Modern Forms warranty for ceiling fans
The short version
Modern Forms doesn't cover everything, but keeps dc motor and led light module covered for life. That full coverage is the same as most of the 18 brands we compared, which typically cover nothing in full. You don't need to register to get this coverage.
From Modern Forms's published warranty, checked October 2026.
