Never liked Dell until now best decision I could have made I love this laptop.

Awesome house computer for simple stuff to do for yourself and kids

Worth it for major repairs but if you need something minor that would be covered it's a bit inconvenient. You have to schedule appointments weeks out to even see them for something minor then they need to hold onto your device because there's no way to pre-coordinate the parts you need with the experts before you see them. The extended waits to schedule, then for them to order parts you could of figured out at the start together makes it easier for their employees but at the expensive of the customer. Example: Laptop I purchased needed a new W key and I wanted to make sure the store had the part when I showed up because I can put the thing on myself and it would of been covered by this plan but I ended up just ordering one myself online because it was two weeks to before I could see someone at a store and they refused to talk to me about parts or the issue prior to that meeting. Then at the store I would of had to wait for them to order the specific part after waiting two weeks to see them.

Why does the warranty start on day 1 instead of the day the manufacturer warranty expires? Doesn't make sense. For this chromebook it has a one year warranty, so Geek Squad warranty should start on day 366. That'd be common sense. Based on previous experience with this protection on a different Lenovo Chromebook, I hope this one protects me better than that time. When I bought it previously, the BB employee told me that if I have any issues with it that they'd very likely just replace it when I brought it in (said that manufacturer won't do that but we will). Yeah they don't, they sent it in and it took a while to come back. That's fine but it didn't last long before it broke again and by then the warranty was up. The issue was a bad keyboard sticking on top row. I treat my technology very well, not around kids, so I think it just wasn't fixed well the first time or had inferior parts. I bought it again for this Chromebook because I needed some coverage in case something happened sooner than later but time will tell.

It came with my Total Tech membership, how can I go wrong? Most things still work many years after 2, but if they don't BB makes it easy to swap out for a new one. :D Get a Total Tech membership and see what I mean.

Given the mixed reviews of an HP laptop, I decided to include this for piece of mind. It is possible that it will expire before I'd need to use it. However, the laptop is not cheap - upper middle of the road in terms of price. The reviews were mixed with good and bad but mostly good. So far, this protection hasn't been used, which is good news! Because of Best Buy's price match program, the laptop price was adjusted and so was the Geek Squad protection price.

Definitely recommend to buy the Protection! Worth every penny. My laptop was damaged and all I had to do was pick out a replacement. Of course I had to go through the process of them “trying” to fix it first - and even that would have cost extra without the plan. I always buy the protection plan on high priced items. It’s the main reason I shop Best Buy!

Geek Squad Protection is the best. If you have a damaged product they either send it for repair or they let you exchange the product. Definitely a great investment in case something is damaged. Only thing I say is that you have to buy another protection plan if you go to geek squad once.

I got the 2 year protection plan on my new laptop seeing that my old one broke. I have already had to use the plan and the process was very smooth.

I have had to have my computer in to remove viruses. They were able remove them within a few days at the local store, without having to send it to the manufacturer. Enjoy having that safety net in case I run into a major issue during my busy times of the year.

Agents mounted tv and all devices, fixed computer, hooked up roku, troubleshooted connectivity problems over several trips. Will never be without

I have had geek squad protection with all my laptops for the past 15 years. They always repair it when it breaks (though it can take a few weeks sometimes). If they can't or it has broken to many times like my last laptop they give you the amount you purchased it for to go towards your next one.

I've had Geek Squad Protection before and I have never had an issue, will continue to add this to my devices.

Because of this insurance is the reason why I get most of my stuff from Best Buy this insurance is very excellent and no hassles with filing a claim because you take it straight into Best Buy any local Best Buy or any Best Buy you want to go to and they will take care of you

This plan is for the 3 year accidental protection. If you are most likely to have accidents with your device or if you have kids or pets that mess around a lot. I would recommend this. Other wise if you keep your things safe or don't use it don't often, I would say you won't need this plan.

Great pass came with the laptop and a bonus expense

Previously bought item broke before 4 years, great to have a new plan

ive had this laptop for 2 years now and i have been very happy with it , it still runs like new and is very user friendly i am very happy to share with you on what a great computer it is and would def buy again

Always get the Geek Squad but use it!! Read up on it and know how it works because they will try and ignore their own rules. A must have for expensive purchases.

Have had too many mishaps with laptops and hope this one isn't as use service as most. Geek squad has always been a good source for my husbands iphone.
