I recently bought extended warranties through Sears for most of my appliances (they won’t cover imported ones). I found that Sears was much better to deal with than other companies and if they can’t fix the item, they will give you a credit to replace it. Sears warranties also cost less than the manufacture warranty. As long as your appliance is less than 10 years old and American, you can get a warranty from them. There is a 30 day waiting period though after you purchase a plan until you can repair an appliance. It doesn’t matter where you initially purchased the product from. Good Luck.
