Weber Manufacturing Technologies, Inc. v. Plasan Carbon Composites, Inc.

Plasan (plaintiff) claimed several statements on tool manufacturer Weber's (defendant) website created express warranties Weber breached, including generic claims of commitment to quality and customer satisfaction alongside a more specific statement describing Weber's dimensional-accuracy inspection process using in-house CMM machines and comprehensive inspection reports. Weber moved to exclude evidence of the website statements as mere puffery.

Whether statements amounting to trade puffing, such as generalized statements of opinion and praise, create an express warranty.
