A; I IIIIIIIIQ The laundry manager of Bleach Laundry Pty Ltd, Kimberley, bought several washing machines and dryers from Basah Kleeners. While purchasing the machines Kim told the salesperson, Jahat, that the machines will be used for his laundry business. Jahat assured Kimberley that all the machines sold are all built to last and also suited for industrial use. Happy with Jahat's representations, Kimberley skimmed over the terms of the contract and immediately signed. Within a week of purchase of the machines, Kimberley realised the washing machines were not able to wash more than 50 kg of clothes, and she wanted the washing machines to be able to wash at least 100 kg of clothing. It was also later discovered the dryer doors are not properly insulated, and becomes extremely hot to the touch after operation. When Kimberly confronted Jahat about the washing machines, he responded "You didn't tell me you wanted washing machines that can wash more than 50 kg so not my problem! Maybe you should have been clearer!" In regards to the dryers, Jahat laughs and says "So? Dryers are meant to get hot. And no one is injured so it's ne!" When Kimberley demanded a refund for both products, Jahat says "we only give refunds if you have the receipt", which unfortunately Kimberley misplaced. Required: Advise Kimberley of the following using relevant law from the ACL consumer guarantees: 1. Can Kimberly claim Basah Cleaners has breached the ACL consumer guarantees? 2. Is Kimberly entitled to a refund? In your answer, address whether the breach (if any) is a major or minor failure
