Home Depot Warranty Versus Upsie Warranty

If you spend the money to protect your appliance or power tool, you want to ensure you get the best possible extended warranty. This means you should shop around, look at different plans, and see which will save you the most money, provide the best protection, and have the best customer service.
Home Depot offers the opportunity to purchase a Home Depot warranty on all appliances and other merchandise. But is the Home Depot appliance warranty the best option for your new fridge or washer? You might consider other extended warranty providers, such as Upsie, to ensure you get the most for your money.

Home Depot Protection Plan

Home Depot offers two kinds of extended warranties, one for their appliances and one for general merchandise. Both offer 24-hour online support and claims filing, the ability to track your repair, and no deductible. In addition, you can purchase a Home Depot protection plan within 90 days of purchase for any product bought from Home Depot.

Home Depot Appliance Warranty

If you purchase an appliance from Home Depot, you can choose to buy a 3-year or 5-year warranty plan. The protection plan will cover parts, labor, and mechanical defects from normal wear and tear. Customers who purchase a Home Depot warranty can get up to 50% off select preventative maintenance parts.
Suppose you purchase an LG 6.3 cu. ft. Smart Slide-In Gas Range with ProBake Convection & Air Sous Vide for $2,499, you can buy three or five years of coverage. For example, a 3-year warranty would cost $195, and a 5-year would cost $295. With a Home Depot warranty, your range would be covered from mechanical defects. Home Depot will help you schedule an in-home repair for a quick and easy repair.

Home Depot General Merchandise Plans

For other Home Depot products, such as power tools and small appliances, customers can purchase two years of coverage for products under $300 and three years for products over $300. For example, for a $59.97 Ryobi power drill, you can purchase two years of coverage for $12. Like with the appliance warranty, you’ll get fast repairs. According to the Terms of Service, depending on the product, you can get a local or mail-in repair.

Upsie Extended Warranty

Upsie was created with one goal: to make extended warranties simpler and more affordable for everyone. That’s why Upsie saves customers up to 70% on protection plans! Upsie has plans for almost all electronics, from smartphones and laptops to large appliances and tools.
While you can only purchase a Home Depot Protection Plan for things you’ve purchased at Home Depot, you can purchase an Upsie warranty for any appliance regardless of where you bought it. Upsie will even protect refurbished devices.
In addition, Upsie offers the same coverage for appliances, paying for the cost of parts and labor for any mechanical defect with no deductible. And Upsie will save you money! An Upsie warranty for a $2,499 LG 6.3 cu. ft. Smart Slide-In Gas Range with ProBake Convection & Air Sous Vide costs $163.99 for three years and $278.99 for five years. That’s a savings of up to $30! Customers can purchase an Upsie warranty for large appliances bought in the last 11 months.
Upsie also has the best power tool warranty. For example, Home Depot only offers two years of coverage for products under $300 and three years for products above $300. In contrast, with Upsie, you can choose between a 2-year and 3-year plan, regardless of price.
For a $59.97 Ryobi drill, customers can purchase two years of coverage for $7.99 and three years for $10.99. This means that Upsie’s three-year warranty for a Ryobi drill is more affordable than Home Depot’s two-year warranty for the same tool. A warranty with Upsie can save you money while still protecting all your favorite appliances.

Filing a Claim with Upsie

In addition to saving money, Upsie has the best customer service. As a result, filing claims couldn’t be easier. Upsie’s US-based claims call center is open 24/7/365 to help with any claims, any time of day. Or, Upsie customers can fill out the online form.
If you're filing a claim for a large appliance, Upsie will help you schedule an in-home repair at your convenience with a certified local technician. For smaller devices, like a power tool, Upsie will help you find a local certified repair technician to take the tool in. If it’s easier for you, you can send it to Upsie’s repair center with free 2-day round trip shipping.
Upsie has the most affordable extended warranty plans with the best customer service for almost all electronics. Upsie also offers a Smartphone Subscription Warranty for new and old smartphones (regardless of how old the smartphone is). As long as your smartphone is in good working condition, you can pair it with an affordable Upsie Smartphone Subscription.
So protect all your favorite electronics with Upsie!
