How does this warranty compare with the extended warranty offered @ Best Buy?

I would consider square trade on amazon instead..almost same price but for 3yrs coverage and a better track record than smart guard.Actually, BBB has lots of complaints that were resolved by refunds of the coverage- hence they keep their A rating, but don't pay out claims.

I don't usually buy an extended warranty from any company for anything. Statistically they are rarely worth the cost as most are never used to the extent that they are worth the price. The one I bought is for a Rebel DSLR Camera and I know the minimal cost to repair almost any part of the camera is likely to pay for itself the first I may have to use it. I did not check the cost of a warranty for this camera from Best Buy so I cannot give you a fair answer as far as comparison, sorry. Good luck with your purchase, I believe my purchase was worth the cost.

I'm not a fan of extended warranties, but I bought one for this TV. It's a major purchase, and could be very expensive to fix in the unlikely event something did go wrong. I paid about 13% of the purchase price, but I saved 37% on the purchase price when I bought from Amazon. I still saved 24%, so it's peace of mind to me.

Based on the $183 price, I would say refurbished. In my experience, if you have questions after purchase, the company that provides the 90 day warranty wont respond and neither will the redistribution company. It's kind of a coin toss.

Hi. I chose the extended warranty when I checked out through Amazon. I believe it was somewhere around the ballpark of $12 to $15 and it was through SquareTrade. I thought this was great because I've been doing business with Square Trade for years on electronics I purchase over $100. It should still be offered when you add electronics or appliances to your cart and proceed to the checkout. I can't advise you on other warranties offered but I can with Square Trade. You can also go to their (Square Trade) website and enter in the type of item and the cost and it will give you a price on a two or three year warranty. Let me know if you have any more questions.Good Luck,Jon Hi. I chose the extended warranty when I checked out through Amazon.

Extended warranties are usually not worth their price. If something goes wrong with a computer it will usually happen pretty quickly. If something happens further down the road it is most times a software issue and that won't be covered. Good luck.

I'm typing this to you from said refurbished keyboard. It's been nothing but a treat to use and hasn't given me any problems. I've probably had it for over a year too. But, that said I do not recall being able to get an extended warranty.

I did not. Sure it depends on how one handles their equipment, however in most cases I would say not. Check with Consumers Reports , they in general don't recommend extended warranties.

T. Gross- it has been my experience that any additional warranty purchased can certainly be used along with the Best Buy warranty. The additional warranty coverage usually becomes effective after the store warranty expires. It never hurts to ask about it when you obtain the additional warranty and its effective time period.

I agree with the other response, I also bought the extended warranty through square trade for 3 years at amazon

Many extended warranty's have lots of room for them to wiggle out of fixing certain failures. The best extended warranty for me came from a local dealer with lots of stores. Jetson, they have a no BS, everything gets fixed warranty. They will even replace a remote that gets dropped and breaks. Read the fine print of any extended warranty, but do it before you buy it. Often times the price is second in line of the extended warranty for me. For instance, one dealer might want $100 more, but they have a warranty that cost cost $100 less and might be the best warranty. The other dealer might have the lowest price , but the worst customer service, or terrible warranty terms. The hard part of buying new big dollar items is in making the choice of the right TV, but then from the right dealer. The right dealer is one with a great reputation for customer service, and great warranty terms.

You get the same 1 year warranty. Go for it, I did, and I certainly don't regret it.

You really need to research the company you buy the warranty from. I bought a warranty on my laptop from CC and it paid for itself. I also bought a warranty from magnolia for my GPS unit and it too more than paid for itself. But if the company offering the warranty isn't legit or buries you in fine print then it's buyer beware...

On Samsung see http://www.samsung.com/us/support/service/warranty/LT22B350ND/ZA. As for extending the warranty, that depends on where you buy it or how you buy it. Costco does for free. Best Buy, Sears, ... will do it but will charge. Some credit cards will extend the warranty free of charge if you have one of their premium charge cards

I decided to get the extended warranty just to be sure. It was recommended somewhere. It was like 14.99 $ for 2 years or ... Would recommend doing the same. I have been happy with my machine so far.

If you buy an extended warranty (CR does not recommend) but it cheaper and B&H camera. B&H stands behind their warrenties. Better yet, don't buy one at all. Many credit cards double the length of your purchase for no charge at all.
