I didn't make the connection to Costco, but you're absolutely right as Costco also has a similar set really good guarantees.

  That includes the Kirkland house brands, Kirkland and Trader Joes seem to not cut corners on putting out house labeled products.

    Except for batteries. Kirkland batteries last a while, but they leak practically every time.

      Very true, best not leave Kirkland batteries in a device as pretty much all of them leaked.

  Electronics excepted, 90 day return policy, which also includes major appliances. https://customerservice.costco.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/1191 https://customerservice.costco.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/1... I can vouch for coverage for minor electronics: I was able, without complaint or even a question from Costco, to swap out a Braun electric toothbrush that failed somewhere around year 1. The replacement is going on ~5 years. (The brushes are frigging expensive compared to a manual toothbrush, that's where the money is, give away the battery+motor for free!)

    When Costco reduced the electronics return period to 90 days, they also started extending the manufacturer warranty to 2 years, so they still have your back more than most retailers do. They just cracked down on people returning computers and TVs several years after purchase, and getting a free upgrade.

      When was this? I bought a TV barely a year ago and it's a flat 1 year warranty with paid upgraded warranty. And then a number of years ago my mom bought an Apple iPod which failed within 6 months and Costco shrugged, said it wasn't covered beyond 90 days at all.
