Product details
Record brand, model, purchase date, provider and warranty length for every item.
Warranty tracker
Never miss a warranty expiry on your household items.
A warranty tracker helps Australian households keep track of appliance and product warranty periods, return windows and purchase details. Store receipts, set expiry reminders and know exactly when you are still covered.
Expiry reminders
Get notified before warranties and return windows close so you can act in time.
Receipt storage
Attach receipts and purchase documents to each record for quick access during claims.
Why track your appliance warranties?
Australian households spend thousands on appliances — fridges, washing machines, TVs, ovens, air conditioners and more. Most come with a manufacturer warranty of one to five years, and some retailers offer extended warranties. But it is easy to forget when you bought something or how long the coverage lasts.
Without a warranty tracker, you might discover your fridge compressor failed one month after the warranty expired, or that your laptop repair is out of pocket because the return window closed last week. A few minutes of record-keeping saves that regret.
- Know your coverage at a glance — no more searching through email receipts or paper documents.
- Act before it expires — reminders give you time to test, inspect or claim before the warranty runs out.
- Help with resale value — when selling a home or appliance, warranty records show buyers the remaining coverage.
How PlanWithHome helps with Australian warranty tracking
PlanWithHome makes it simple to record every product detail — brand, model, serial number, purchase date, retailer and warranty length. You can attach your receipt photo or PDF directly to the record so it is always accessible.
When a warranty is about to expire, PlanWithHome sends you a reminder so you can decide whether to test the item, make a claim, or arrange a repair while coverage is still active. You can also track return windows separately from warranty periods.
Your warranty records connect to other parts of the app — items under warranty appear in your home inventory, and you can check for product recalls by matching model and serial numbers.
Australian Consumer Law and your warranties
Under Australian Consumer Law, products come with automatic consumer guarantees that exist alongside the manufacturer's warranty. These guarantees mean a product must be of acceptable quality, fit for purpose and match its description. The guarantee period depends on the price and nature of the product — a high-end fridge may be covered for several years even after the manufacturer warranty expires.
PlanWithHome helps you keep the records you need to make a consumer guarantee claim. By storing purchase dates, prices, receipts and photos of each item, you have evidence of when and where you bought it. If something goes wrong, that information is ready for the retailer or manufacturer.
While PlanWithHome does not provide legal advice, having organised purchase records makes it much easier to pursue your rights as a consumer.
Frequently asked questions
How does a warranty tracker work?
A warranty tracker lets you record each product's brand, model, purchase date, retailer and warranty length. It calculates the expiry date and sends you a reminder before the warranty ends, so you know when you can still make a claim or return the item.
What information should I save for each appliance warranty?
For each appliance, save the brand and model name, serial number, purchase date, retailer name, warranty duration, and a copy of the receipt. Having these details ready makes a warranty claim much simpler.
Can I attach receipts to my warranty records?
Yes. PlanWithHome lets you attach receipts, purchase documents and photos to each record so everything you need for a claim is in one place.
Does PlanWithHome cover extended warranties?
You can record any warranty type — manufacturer warranty, extended warranty from a retailer, or additional coverage you purchased separately. Set the duration and get reminders for each.
What happens when a warranty expires?
Expired warranties remain in your records for reference. You can see the coverage period, claim history and notes even after expiry. This is useful for understanding how long past appliances lasted and for resale disclosure.
Can I track warranties for items I bought overseas?
Yes. PlanWithHome does not restrict where you bought items. You can record any purchase regardless of retailer or country, which is useful for electronics or appliances bought while travelling or from international online stores.
