Extended warranty on fridge freezer?

[monster]

We're about to buy a small side-by-side (with water and ice) cost $600 (sale) "RRP" around 800-900.

Should we get an extended warranty?

Normally, we don't and we've done OK. On the steam vac we did and that was great too -$40 for 3 years. broke after two, go a brand new vac free, paid $40 for another 3 years, broke after two -just picked up my third brand new vac and have paid for another 3 yr warranty. (But I think this warranty is extra cheap because they don't distinguish between steam vacs and regular vacs and it's always the reservoir seal that wear out). (so paid $420 for vac for 7 years so far, as opposed to 900 for three new vacs lasting 2 years each.)

so back to the fridge freezer

$90 for 2yr, $120 for 3 year, $200 for 5 year. would you do it? we're tending towards no -not many moving parts, if it makes it through the first year, it should be OK, water ind ice most likely to fail and should be able to do those ourselves, and if not the cost of one repair should be less than $200.....


(it's an estate by Whirlpool if that makes any difference)


oh, and my condolences if anyone's nearest and dearest became dearly departed as a result of contact with a fridge freezer or an extended warranty salesperson on or around 9/11.
