What is Appliance Cover and Why do you Need it?

Appliance cover is a must whether you’re a tenant, a homeowner or a landlord but if you’re unsure what exactly appliance cover is, then it can feel a bit like a waste of money. After all, you’ve already got home insurance, surely it’s all the same thing? Unfortunately, house insurance isn’t the same as contents insurance and even when you have contents insurance, that doesn’t mean it will cover your appliances. Taking our separate appliance cover can save you lots of money in the future.

What is Appliance Cover?

Essentially appliance cover, helps you to protect those appliances that you can't live without. This is separate from things like boiler cover and is primarily focused on household appliances such as your oven or your dishwasher, your fridge or freezer, your washing machine and any other electrical appliance. With one of our policies, you'll be able to make sure that your appliances are protected against breakdown and damage, see you never left without these key appliances. 

There’s nothing worse than being left without an oven so making sure that it's covered means that we can dispatch a technician to you in almost no time at all. And if it's irreparable, then our insurance covers the cost of replacement; you’ll be back to cooking in no time at all. The loss of your fridge or freezer can also not be underestimated, especially if you have a lot of food stored inside. 

These appliances are essentials for daily living but often not specifically covered by contents insurance, which insurers get round repairing or replacing by saying they are not named and are too expensive for their policy. This is why taking out specific appliance cover is so important. While that will cost you a little extra every month, it really can save you so much money should one of your essential appliances suddenly break. 

What's great about our plans is that they are so flexible, you can add as many or as few appliances as you like. So if you want to specifically cover your brand new, state-of-the-art smart fridge but don't want to worry about your run down dishwasher, then you can. You can add appliances as your policy goes, so your important appliances are all covered.
