Yes! I recommend it!

Used for 1-6 months

Expensive but gives peace of mind

Reviewed April 24, 2020

My husband and I chose to do this since it’s not something we could decide on once it’s too late. It’s expensive but we figured it’s worth it for peace of mind. There wasn’t much we had to do on our end, and hopefully we won’t need to use it in the future, but if we do, we know we’re covered.
