The Short Version
The statutory text supports the claim. Sections 54, 55, and 56 of Schedule 2 to the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (the Australian Consumer Law) establish consumer guarantees about acceptable quality, fitness for a disclosed purpose, and goods matching their description. The wording is slightly shorthand, but not materially inaccurate.
Caveats
Section 55 is specifically about fitness for a purpose disclosed or made known by the consumer, not an unlimited guarantee for every possible use.
These sections concern guarantees for goods; consumer guarantees for services appear in different ACL provisions.
The claim is a high-level summary and does not include statutory conditions, exceptions, or remedy rules.
