Hi,

Both in general mean roughly the same except that ‘warranty’ is usually a written document giving details of length of time/what is covered. A guarantee in its simplest form is a promise - not necessarily in writing.

I was also confused about the two terms. Thank you for the explanation. I thought the two were the same. Well, they are essentially the same, the only difference is that a warranty is written while a guarantee is not always written. It could be given verbally.
