Both Choice Home Warranty and American Home Shield are two popular companies offering service contracts for appliances and home systems. Which home warranty service is better for you depends on the coverage you need, where you’re located, and the quote you receive. One difference between Choice Home Warranty and American Home Shield is that American Home Shield offers three packages — a systems package, appliance package, and combo package. This could offer you a bit more flexibility to choose what you need. Choice Home Warranty offers two packages that both cover a mix of home systems and appliances, which may include coverage that isn’t necessary, depending on your situation. Pricing is another factor you can compare between companies. Choice Home Warranty charges $85 per service call; meanwhile, American Home Shield charges $75 to $125 per call, depending on the plan you choose.
