Extended warranty for fridge freezer

lolly5648

My Bosch fridge freezer is 2 years old and now out of warranty. I have been offered a new one for £50 - is it worth it? My last fridge freezer lasted 30 years but I am told they don't make them like they used to!

Bosch are still one of the reliable fridge/freezer brands. The advice on this forum with extended warranties and service contracts is generally to save your money in a bank/building society account for when something goes wrong.

You need to consider how much you paid for the fridge/freezer and whether it's worth spending £50 to extend the warranty for a year only?

Most new appliances (especially reliable brands), generally don't fail in the first few years.

Thanks for your reply - you've confirmed what I thought.

Washing machines can go wrong, fridges rarely fail in my experience. The plastic drawers and innards usually collapse before mechanical failure.
