2012 Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes
Title 13 - COMMERCIAL CODE
Chapter 23 - General Obligation and Construction of Contract
Section 2313 - Express warranties by affirmation, promise, description or sample

     § 2313.  Express warranties by affirmation, promise, description
                or sample.
        (a)  General rule.--Express warranties by the seller are
     created as follows:
            (1)  Any affirmation of fact or promise made by the
        seller to the buyer which relates to the goods and becomes
        part of the basis of the bargain creates an express warranty
        that the goods shall conform to the affirmation or promise.
            (2)  Any description of the goods which is made part of
        the basis of the bargain creates an express warranty that the
        goods shall conform to the description.
            (3)  Any sample or model which is made part of the basis
        of the bargain creates an express warranty that the whole of
        the goods shall conform to the sample or model.
        (b)  Formal words or specific intent unnecessary.--It is not
     necessary to the creation of an express warranty that the seller
     use formal words such as "warrant" or "guarantee" or that he
     have a specific intention to make a warranty, but an affirmation
     merely of the value of the goods or a statement purporting to be
     merely the opinion of the seller or commendation of the goods
     does not create a warranty.
