Resumo: The present dissertation aims at showing the vulnerability and the difficulty of the consumer to exercise the right guaranteed by the art. 18, § 3º of the Code of Consumer Protection in order to make immediate use of the determined alternatives of the § 1º from the art. 18, which are: the substitution of the product by another one of the same kind, in perfect conditions of use; or, the immediate refund of the paid amount, appropriately updated, without the risk of any loss and damage; or, the proportional reduction of the price. The object of the present research is limited to the defect of the product when the product is essential. The absence of a legal definition of essential product, in our comprehension, increases the vulnerability of the disadvantaged in the consuptiom process concerning the right above, because it makes the consumer pass through the subjective sieve of the magistrates, according to their concepts and principles about what they think of essential product. The importance of this subject comes from the difficulty faced by the consumer in the immediate exercise of the alternatives from the art. 18, § 1º, of the CDC (Code of Consumer Protection), since the consumer is not always full filled in the request due to the concepts and principles which, although they give a shape to the decision of the magistrate about what essential product is, don´t have the power to put away or reduce the indispensability of such products on the consumer´s daily routine. For this dissertation, both the doctrine and the jurisprudence were researched, and consequently, a comparison was performed between the concepts and characteristics of the defect of the product in the ambit of the civil and consumer laws. Therefore, the present research aims to cause an analysis about the institute of the essential product, as well as propose the strengthening of the consumer protection concerning the demands caused by the defects in the products, which are inter-related to the consumer´s existence and daily life. At the end, it proposes a concept for essential product, which is: theory of the essential products
