During shipping and handling, a small number of our products get boxes that are scuffed, dented, or scratched. While the outer packaging may not look perfect, the product inside is pristine and untouched.<\/p>\n<p>These are not items that have been dropped or impacted in a way that would affect the device. The imperfections are purely cosmetic and limited to the cardboard box. The router, modem, or switch inside is in brand-new, factory-sealed condition, ready to deliver the full NETGEAR experience.<\/p>\n    <\/div>\n        <div id=\"topic2\" class=\"skip-item\">\n                        <h2>How This Is Different From Refurbished or Used Products<\/h2>\n                <p>It is important to understand that these products are not refurbished, returned, or used. A refurbished product has been previously owned, returned, and then restored to working condition. An open-box item has been purchased and opened by another customer.<\/p>\n<p>Our damaged box products are different. They have never been opened, used, or sold to anyone. Each device is completely new and has never left its original factory packaging. You are the first person to unbox and use it.<\/p>\n    <\/div>\n        <div id=\"topic3\" class=\"skip-item\">\n                        <h2>Why These Products Are Discounted<\/h2>\n                <p>The reason for the discount is simple. Because the outer packaging isn\u2019t in perfect condition, we can\u2019t sell these products through our standard retail channels. We believe in minimizing waste and passing the value on to our customers.<\/p>\n<p>Instead of letting a perfectly good product go to waste because of a cosmetic flaw on its box, we offer it to you for twenty percent off. You get the same high-performance technology and a great price, all because you are willing to overlook a minor blemish on the packaging.<\/p>\n    <\/div>\n        <div id=\"topic4\" class=\"skip-item\">\n                        <h2>What Customers Can Expect When Their Order Arrives<\/h2>\n                <p>When your order arrives, you can expect the outer box to show minor signs of wear, like a scuffed corner or a slight dent. Inside that box, you will find a brand-new NETGEAR device in its factory-sealed packaging, completely untouched.<\/p>\n<p>Your product will include all the standard accessories, documentation, and a full NETGEAR warranty, just like any full-priced item purchased directly from us. You can connect it with complete confidence, knowing your purchase is protected.<\/p>\n    <\/div>\n        <div id=\"topic5\" class=\"skip-item\">\n                        <h2>Why Buying Directly From NETGEAR Matters<\/h2>\n                <p>Purchasing from the NETGEAR Imperfect Box gives you peace of mind. You are buying an authentic, brand-new product directly from the people who made it. There is no middleman and no uncertainty about the product\u2019s history or condition. You receive the same commitment to quality and Technical Technical Support that comes with every NETGEAR purchase.<\/p>\n    <\/div>\n        <div id=\"topic6\" class=\"skip-item\">\n                        <h2>Who This Program Is Perfect For<\/h2>\n                <p>This program is designed for the savvy shopper who prioritizes performance and value. It\u2019s for anyone who wants the latest NETGEAR technology but doesn\u2019t mind a minor imperfection on the packaging to get it at a better price. If you care more about what\u2019s inside the box than the box itself, this is the perfect opportunity for you.<\/p>\n    <\/div>\n        <div id=\"topic7\" class=\"skip-item\">\n                        <h2>Confidence in Every Connection<\/h2>\n                <p>Our Damaged Box program is a testament to our commitment to quality, value, and our customers. It\u2019s an opportunity to experience premium NETGEAR connectivity at an exceptional price without making any compromises on performance or protection.<\/p>\n<p>Because inventory is based on the small number of products with packaging blemishes, the selection is limited and changes frequently. We invite you to explore the current collection and find the perfect device for your home or office.<br \/>\n<!--\n[button text=\"Shop the NETGEAR Imperfect Box Outlet\" url=\"https:\/\/www.netgear.com\/outlet\/imperfect-box\/\"]\n--><\/p>\n    <\/div>\n    <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At NETGEAR, we are committed to delivering powerful, reliable connectivity.
