Freezer (Stand-Alone) Extended Warranty

QUESTION FROM Mark

Hey Wizard,

We purchased a new manual defrost freezer at Sears last night to replace our dinosaur freezer. The sales guy pitched the extended warranty really hard - told me specifically that newer freezers have to be serviced every two years. His reasons were something to do with the oil/freon mix that is in the system. What's the straight talk on this?

ANSWER FROM HOME-WIZARD

Dear Mark:

Here's a good article that appeared in the Washington Post, that talks about the pro's and con's of purchasing extended warranties:
