Current house came with a Two year free appliance warranty. Given our bad Refrigerator Karma, our two year warranty ended May 15. I chose to buy a 5 year plan starting May 16, for $325. No deductible, free service calls, parts, weekend and holiday, food loss $$ and replacement $$ for new Fridge.

5am This morning French Press Kona, opened fridge for homemade scone, and cream. Every item was sweating, dead fridge. Schedule emergency online appointment for today. The same Repair guy from our past 3 houses, sadly knows me by first name.
Fridge repaired, part would have been $175 service call, $75. He took pics of contents sent in for $300 food allotment. Thankfully trash is Thursday.
Fourth time I have actually made money from Refrigerator Warranty. 59 months and 3 weeks left to fix my bad Refrigerator Karma again and again.
Wow... this is indeed bad karma! What did you ever do to refrigerators that they have a vendetta against you? LOL.

In my Naples home, where I'm typing from right now, my fridge is a GE Profile that is 17 years old now! I've had to repair the water/ice dispenser once. It will be replaced this year, but it's still working.
