Warranties

Warranty expiration tracker guide

The average home contains $2,000–$5,000 worth of products still under manufacturer warranty. Most families don't know exactly which products are covered or when those warranties expire — until something breaks and it's too late to file a claim.

How it works

1Use the inventory checklist below to review common household items with warranties
2Note the purchase date and standard warranty duration for each item you own
3Set calendar reminders 30 days before each warranty expires so you can file claims or consider extensions in time

Tip: Check your credit card benefits — most premium cards automatically extend manufacturer warranties by 1–2 years at no cost. This applies to everything on this list.
