Southbend warranty for ranges, ovens & cooktops
The short version
Southbend covers ranges, ovens & cooktops in full for 1 year, with no partial coverage after that. That full coverage is the same as most of the 70 brands we compared, which typically cover 1 year in full. You don't need to register to get this coverage.
