Questions shoppers ask

Which brand of ranges, ovens & cooktops has the best warranty?

On paper, Capital scores highest, with 2 years of full coverage and longer coverage on some parts. Gaggenau covers everything longest, at 5 years.

Is a long warranty on ranges, ovens & cooktops really that long?

Often not for the whole product. Many longer warranties cover only certain parts after the first year or two, and you usually pay for the labor. The bars above show full and partial coverage separately.

Do I need to register to get the warranty?

5 of 70 brands require registration for some of their coverage, often within a set number of days. Keep your receipt either way.
