Built-in Microwave Warranty Coverage
Many of us would be lost at mealtime if we couldn't just pop something in the microwave.That's why it's good to have home warranty coverage. An American Home Shield® home warranty ensures that when a covered problem strikes, you can simply place a service request.
American Home Shield will pay up to $2,000 per covered appliance ($4,000 with ShieldPlatinum™) for access, diagnosis, and repair/ replacement per the limitations and exclusions in your plan agreement.

You can place your first service request 30 days after you sign up for your plan. Service requests can easily be placed 24/7 online via MyAccount or by calling 1-888-691-2854 during standard business hours to request service.
Our best home warranty plan is the one that’s right for you and your home.

No two homes are the same, and that’s why we have options – so you can find the plan that fits your needs. Please review the Sample Plan Agreement for specific coverage details.
The lifespan of most microwaves is between five and 10 years. Their shorter lifespan makes them even more important to protect with a home warranty.
A home warranty is a renewable service contract that lasts for one year. You can easily get a free, personalized quote based on your needs.
You can extend your microwave’s life by employing best practices like using the time-efficient auto settings, making sure you only use microwave-safe dishes, cleaning it regularly, and using surge protectors at the power outlet.
