Is the 5-year warranty offered for purchase an extend warranty beyond the original warranty? If not, what is the benefit of purchasing extended?

I don't know I didn't purchase it. I didn't know there was a 5 year extended warranty available.

It is not necessary to purchase the extended 3 year warranty. This product has a long life and most of the parts can be replaced at little or low cost, the 3 year extended warranty will have expired by the time parts are needed. Clumsiness on a regular bases would be the only way I would recommend a 3 year warranty.

I do not believe so, in fact i had trouble purchasing a warranty even through Sony - they wouldn't sell me an extended warranty. I managed to trick it by finding the device in another country's sony domain, like a .de or something then found a link to the extended warranty section. At that point I was allowed to purchase the 2 year warranty with accidental damage for sixty dollars. Happy Hunting! Please note that now there is a US Version (as of a few days ago) so you may now have better luck. Not sure what the US model number is

I was confused about how to get the extended warranty because it was not offered at checkout. I had to buy it as a separate item. Search for Square Trade Appliance. You'll have to choose the price from a list and then choose how many years you want. This may have changed in the last couple of years.

I am not sure i have been told that they have an excellent warrantee and are easy to deal with, yet I have not ever used it. I did not buy an extended warrantee.

Hi Tim. I recently purchased the HLT6187S and am fully satisfied with the product! To answer your question: NO, I did not get the 5 year extended warranty that was offered to me for $500. If anything is defective in the TV it should manifest itself within the first month - if not the first few days - of operation, and within that time frame, you can make your judgment call on whether you should return the item or not.anyway, for more info on warranties and such, check out this link: http://reviews.cnet.com/4520-3000_7-6398085-1.htmlhope that was of help.

Since I bought it from Amazon, it has a 90day warranty. I had thought I purchased an extended warranty but I guess I failed to push the button for that item when I bought it online.

Hi. I chose the extended warranty when I checked out through Amazon. I believe it was somewhere around the ballpark of $12 to $15 and it was through SquareTrade. I thought this was great because I've been doing business with Square Trade for years on electronics I purchase over $100. It should still be offered when you add electronics or appliances to your cart and proceed to the checkout. I can't advise you on other warranties offered but I can with Square Trade. You can also go to their (Square Trade) website and enter in the type of item and the cost and it will give you a price on a two or three year warranty. Let me know if you have any more questions.Good Luck,Jon Hi. I chose the extended warranty when I checked out through Amazon.

I think it only has a one year warranty, as is standard for this type of product. However, you can purchase an extended warranty of 3 years like I did. Also is a very good product for this price considering all accessories including ...

I normally don't recommend purchasing an extended warranty and don't buy them myself BUT...if you are buying a computer or any other expensive item from Amazon I feel you should buy the best extended warranty you can. I did not do that on the last computer I bought from Amazon and I now regret it. it was a name brand computer that I had excellent results with in the past. Even a good company can sell an occasional lemon.

I did not. Sure it depends on how one handles their equipment, however in most cases I would say not. Check with Consumers Reports , they in general don't recommend extended warranties.

Sony's website (sonystyle.com) sells 3, 4, and 5 year warranties, if you purchase the extended warranty within 60 days of your purchase. The 5-year plan is $289 and grades down from there about $60 per year (4 year plan $229). Still considering it myself!

The Etymotic ER4PTs come with a 2-year replacement warranty when you purchase them from an authorized dealer (WiredForLess is authorized). And yes, I believe you can add an extended warranty during checkout. Thanks for your interest. Brian / WiredForLess

Hi,We didn't get an extended warranty with our tv, however it works fantastic. If I were to get one, I would probably go mid-range. I hope that helps.

I think that if you purchase a new model that the warranty is one year. However, I purchased a refurbished unit for $799 through an Amazon supplier, Adgtron, and got an extended warranty of 5 years from date of purchase for $89.

Only the usual 1 year warranty comes with your purchase of the item brand new. I bought an extended warranty through amazon at Squaretrade at a very good price.
