I don't think you have to put up with any crummy ONE YEAR warranty on
ANY product. Go into a store that sells and services their appliance
and TELL them you expect the appliance to last FIVE YEARS. Tell them
you want them to give you a store warranty for five years!

Re read the original post. He is talking about a warrantee from American
Home Shield, not the warrantee that is already in place by the appliance
manufacturer. AHS is a third party insurer that covers plumbing and things
not otherwise covered. They charge a lot for it too.
