Has anyone ever purchased the Square Trade warranty from Amazon? I just bought a mid range pressure washer for $500 and forgot to add the 4 year square trade warranty for like $15. Seems like a good deal for a piece of equipment like this. Have any of you ever bought and used the warranty through amazon and is it worth it?
I am tempted to call them up and have it added before my item ships.

I guess it doesn't matter. I realized in replacing my order I didn't check the box again but I figured I could just add it. They wouldn't allow me to add it to the preexisting order I just placed minutes prior. I understand outsourcing but (fill in your own curse words here). I was on the phone with them at 1:30 AM to fix a cancelled order. And again when stuff wasn't right when I woke up, and had to call back a third time and it took 5 minutes for the guy to understand my email address. There is no way I was about to cancel my order for the square trade warranty. It'll come back to bite me in the butt I am sure but the language barrier is just too much to bare at this point.
Sorry had to vent, I just bought a new 8lb wood splitting maul. All of a sudden I have an urge to take it to my car for some reason. Wonder if my insurance company covers that.

Dang you buy a commercial one? I got my 3000psi 2.9gpm I believe for $300 at lowes 2 years ago, broke it and bought a 2700psi 2.7 gpm for $249 last year, it's probably broke now too! They'll last forever if you put the pump stuff in it (I did not) and use the gas before storage (again I did not). I can fix the gas but the pump is close to $100 :/
So anyway - no, I've never used it lol

I didn't get the first one I bought because of "technical issues" then was told it was out of stock so I had to settle for the Simpson PS3228, it does have a Honda engine, and the triplex pump so it should last a long time. Its 3300 PSI but its only 2.5 GPM. I researched the crap out of them and thought I had a steal on one last night on a Simpson 4000 PSI and 4 GPM but it wasn't to be.
Originally I wanted a belt driven one so it'll last a lifetime but at $600-$1000 more I just couldn't pull the trigger.
