Some of the main differences between a regular and an extended warranty are that regular warranties usually have shorter coverage periods, may not cover accidental damage or wear-and-tear, and may require you to pay for repairs upfront. Extended warranties typically provide more comprehensive coverage, can be used for accidental damage and wear-and-tear, and offer reimbursement for repair costs if the product breaks down within the coverage period. Additionally, extended warranties often come with additional benefits such as roadside assistance and replacement parts.
