I use to work in Sears Home Services. On these types of sight unseen warranties by Sears and others (like American Home Shield) they are all selling piece of mind. What is that piece of mind worth to you? It's different for different people. But I did know Service Techs who bought warranties even though they can fix the appliances themselves because the parts can get expensive fast, even with their employee discounts. But Service Techs can have a skewed sense of the world as all they see all day long is broken appliances but not the many many more that are working.
Obviously on average they will collect more than the repairs cost. But you can stack the deck in your favor. If you "know" the repair will cost more than the warranty it's a no brainer... but be careful how you "know". Our refrigerator at 4 years old went out and I knew it was a sealed system leak and that is big money and was right. Our 15+ year old dishwasher stopped draining and I was sure the motor but was wrong, (luckily I decided to dig in first and fixed it myself... something stopped up & bent the built in garbage disposal impeller).
Does Sears still offer the "one year" on just the one appliance? That may be another way to go.
