From the Manufacturer
Every Kindle comes with a one-year manufacturer’s warranty.  With the 2-Year Extended Warranty for Kindle, you will receive protection against accidental damage such as drops or spills for the entire two years.  In the 2nd year, your coverage extends to protect against failures that occur during normal operation.  This helps avoid the inconvenience and costs associated with a broken device.  The warranty stays with the device even if it is gifted or sold to another party. 

What is Covered

  • Two years of coverage (limited to a single claim) for accidental drops or damage such as spills that affect the functionality of your covered device.
  • One additional year of coverage (after the end of the manufacturer’s warranty) for failures that occur during normal operation.
  • Only available to U.S. customers.

Customer Reviews

Not a bad idea if you read what you get5
For starters, this is not a warranty from Amazon - it is from a third party so Amazon has nothing to do with it.

It is a two year extended warranty because, it not only adds one year to the warranty Amazon gives for normal use damage, it also gives Accidental damage protection (for if you drop it or spill on it or whatever) for the two years. I know at some point I will probably drop my Kindle or spill something on it and I would much rather pay 65 now then 300 for a new Kindle.

Since it is from a third party and not Amazon, I bet they will be adding an extended warranty for the international at some point, if they can work out how to do the returns and replacements, since you do have to have certain licenses to send electronics out of the country.

Read Carefully Before Purchasing5
This is extending the Amazon warranty against product defects for ONE year NOT two years as it runs parallel to Amazons original one year warranty. The benefit of paying for this warranty is if you are like me and need accident protection for your device. The original amazon warranty does not protect against drops, spills, adventurous two year olds, etc...., where as this one does. So if you're clumsy, or seem to have bad luck with electronic devices, the $65 dollars is probably worth the cost. Also keep in mind that the warranty is ONLY valid in the US.

Save your money1
Called to order this warranty and was told the Kindle was not eligible because it was a gift and I was not the original purchaser. Some advice to the wise, veracity does not pay in some situations.
