Monoprice is a US-based online retailer specializing in high-quality electronics, accessories, and home entertainment products at competitive prices.

Consumer impact summary

Monoprice requires that all visitors to their website follow the arbitration agreement which dictates that Monoprice and consumers both will handle any significant, formal disputes through arbitration or in small claims court only; consumers waive their right to a trial by jury, their right to participate in class action lawsuits, and their right to resolve disputes outside of small claims.[1]

Incidents

Dark Matter 27-inch monitor, "warranty void if removed" stickers

The Dark Matter 27-inch gaming monitor from Monoprice has a "warranty void if removed" sticker over a screw on the monitor's base mount, a component necessary for setting up the product. This raised concerns about whether the sticker was deliberately placed to prevent consumers from mounting their monitors without voiding the warranty, as removing the sticker to access the screw would render the warranty invalid.[citation needed]
