Are Extended Warranties Worth It?

With standard warranties dwindling, you need to decide whether to pay for coverage you used to get for free.

When I buy something, I want it to last. But if it fails prematurely, I want the company I bought it from to replace or fix it. Unfortunately, that’s not always the way things work.

Vendors have severely cut the length of standard warranties for numerous products. Dell, for example, used to offer a three-year standard warranty for many products, but has cut some down to one year and a few to just three months. If buyers want the comfort and security of a lengthier warranty, they have to pay extra for it. Furthermore, products have become more complex and so are costlier to fix; also, many devices are now portable and thus are more at risk of failure. These and other factors are feeding a significant growth in sales of extended warranties, for which consumers spent $16 billion last year–up 7 percent over 2004, says Eric Arnum, editor of Warranty Week, a site aimed at warranty management professionals.

Some people think that if a product is going to fail, it will do so soon after purchase, so the likelihood that you’ll need coverage beyond the standard term is low. This has some truth for certain products. “There is a spike in front,” says Jim Kahler, director of consumer support for HP’s North American PC products line. “You pick up any flaws in manufacturing in the first 90 days; it flattens out [soon thereafter], then rises, especially with a mobile product,” he adds.
