FAQ
It covers the cost of repairing your appliances if they break down with a mechanical or electrical fault, or stop working after accidental damage. Call-out, labour and parts are included.
Yes, you can cover between one and ten kitchen appliances on a single breakdown policy. Multi-appliance cover is often more cost-effective than buying individual extended warranties. You can mix and match items, including washing machines, dishwashers, tumble dryers, and fridge freezers.
Yes, appliances must be under ten years old when you first take out the policy. We cannot offer new cover for equipment older than ten years. If an insured item reaches ten years of age during your policy term, it will be flagged and removed at your next renewal.
Prices start from just £8.00 per month for a single appliance. The total cost depends on how many items you insure. For example, covering multiple appliances typically reduces the "per item" cost, offering better value than single-item warranties.
Most standard domestic appliance brands are covered. However, we do not cover any equipment used for commercial purposes. Additionally, the value of each appliance must be no more than £500, or £1,000 for American Fridge Freezers.
