latest Super Home Warranty reviews

Eliza Briggs , TX, Fort Worth

Love my Super warranty. They fixed my dishwasher so quickly. I am new to owning a home, so I didn’t have a clue who to call. I feel very grateful that my realtor told me to do this.
Kirsty Morley , CA, El Sobrante

Great company trying to help improve experiences with home warranties, reps are helpful and take the time to listen to claims, and I have used the app a few times as well.
Mina P , IL, Chicago

Super has successfully changed my perception of home warranty companies. They are marketing themselves as something different than a traditional home warranty company. Their portal and apps are very useful. I would love to see more from Super in terms of content, tips, proactive care of my appliances. Big potential.
Ben Lemoine , AZ, Scottsdale

I am really appreciating my Super contract. They have solid servicers who know what to do, and the website makes for easy scheduling. They even have maintenance for your house and lawn. I am glad my realtor hooked us up.
S Shah , TX, Irving

My experience with Super Home Warranty has been nothing but outstanding. When I call for service, prompt action is taken. The vendors they work with are great (professional and responsive).
Jessica Leo , DC, Washington

I am a big fan of Super. They\'ve been around for several years in DC now, and I feel like they always get the job done with no fuss, and a really easy to use app. I\'d recommend to anyone.

Super Home Warranty Exclusions

Like every home warranty, Super also has specific limitations and exclusions to its coverage policy. For example, Super provides coverage to all mechanical parts of a dishwasher except for racks, rollers, and baskets.

A careful reading of your contract will give you an idea about similar exclusions for other items. However, it should be noted that Super doesn’t have a lengthy list of limitations like other home warranty companies.

Super does not cover items that break down due to misuse, negligence, previous improper repairs, missing parts, damage caused by natural disasters, manufacturer defects, etc. Read Super’s sample contract to get a better idea about their exclusions.

Super’s payout caps depend on the plan and additional coverage you purchase. The coverage caps are generous compared to other companies, with some items receiving unlimited coverage. Super has set a coverage aggregate limit at $30000. They will not cover any amount that exceeds this limit.

Trustworthiness & Customer Service

Super Home Warranty has generally received less-than-average ratings across different platforms. On our platform, the company has received a rating of 2.5/5 which shows the non-satisfaction with the customers.

On BBB, the company has received an average rating of 2.93/5 from 200+ customer reviews. Most reviews revolve around poor customer service and unprofessional behavior from the company’s technicians.

Some customer reviews also talk about a bit higher cost of plans. However, the coverage options for all three plans justify the price point. Super Home Warranty’s Simple Plan, the basic option, covers 16 items in its catalog.

Similarly, the Signature Plan covers 22 items, and the Lux Plan covers 29 items, which is on par with the industry standards for the price point.

As Super Home Warranty is still new in the market, the company needs to provide much more efficient service to build a reputation. However, their comprehensive plans, easy claims process, and clear terms and conditions are positive. But, we still recommend our customers read the sample contract before signing up for the home warranty from SHW.

Super Home Warranty Vs. American Home Shield: Which Is Better?

Super Home Warranty is a new entrant to the home warranty industry compared to American Home Shield. The latter has 50 years of industry experience and offers nationwide coverage. Super, on the other hand, only serves in a few cities across different states.

Coverage-wise, both companies offer services for a home’s major appliances and systems. Super’s plans cover appliances and systems and offer maintenance services.

In contrast, AHS covers only systems in their ShieldSilver Plan, appliances, and systems in their ShieldGold Plan. The ShieldPlatinum Plan is their most comprehensive one, with enhanced coverage caps and more coverage options.

Regarding pricing, Super does fall on the higher end of the scale, while AHS offers reasonable prices. You should note that the pricing eventually depends on the size of your house, your city/state of residence, the coverage you take up, and other factors. You can consider a free quote to find the exact pricing details.

At the end of all this, however, the decision on which is the best company depends on the needs of your home.
