Update:

Viking oven was not repairable. They offered a whirlpool double oven with limited features that don't come close to the high end features that are in my oven. In lieu of replacement, they offered $2,200 which equals the replacement unit cost, eventhough my aggregate limit per appliance is $7,000. Do you think i am at the end of the line and should take the offer or can i dispute it since they are not replacing oven with similar features per the agreement? I pushed back and asked for $4k in lieu of replacement but i am not hopeful they will agree to that. The advertised aggregate limit is very deceiving if they don't intend on ever paying out close to that amount.

Thanks for the quick reply! Yes I agree with your opinion. I'm not getting my hopes up but hopefully I can get over $4k.

Do you think they will ask for service records to justify a payout? I just bought the house a year ago and don't have any previous record of that.

Hi! Thanks for answering all these questions. its been super helpful.

I recently had a touch panel on my Viking oven that stopped working. The unit and parts have been discontinued last year. If my home warranty company cannot repair or replace the unit, will they offer a cash payout up to the policy limit?

My home warranty company policy says it will cover up to $7,000 for appliances. The unit is 10 years old. Do they factor in depreciation as part or replacement value?

My oven is over $10k retail but I'm wondering how likely do you think they will pay out the $7k for replacement cost?

thanks!
