When you have splashed out on a shiny new home appliance and you’re standing at the checkout, more often than not the helpful assistant will ask if you want to extend the standard warranty on offer in case something goes wrong with the item you’ve just bought. You stand there and think about how much you love your new fridge/washing machine/deluxe coffee machine and perhaps nine times out of ten cave in and take out the extended warranty?
Well it seems the average consumer is not making a savvy purchase decision when they take out this extended warranty – it can add a considerable amount on to your purchase price and when you take out the extended warranty on more than one appliance, you can see how the cost would really add up. You might not have considered it before, but home appliance insurance could be the one policy you are missing that saves you money in the long-run, and protects your new and well-loved home appliances.
Insure Your Home Appliances
Think how many appliances you have – if you have just got married or moved house you will probably have many more than previously, and they could be high value items. What’s more, all of us use our appliances extremely frequently – most households use their washing machines on average three times a week, and that figure will be much higher if you have a large family – we would all be lost without our white goods. So, it makes sense to look around for the best quote for home appliance insurance.
It’s true that a warranty comes as standard on most appliance purchases, but this doesn’t last long and unless you go for the extended warranty on everything you own – which would be costly – your best bet is home appliance insurance. It commonly covers fridges, freezers, washing machines and dishwashers as well as household items such as televisions, lawnmowers and stereos, and the type of cover can range from insurance provider to insurance provider. However, you can be sure most home appliance insurance policies offer new for old replacements, a 24-hour repair service and approved list of repairers, and accidental damage cover.
Keep Your Home Ticking Along
Where would we be without our fridge freezers? How could we cope with dirty clothes and no TV? Househould items such as these are integral to the running of our daily lives, and a home appliance insurance policy could save you a stressful few days if any of them were to break down.
