I think the real scam is the tax forcing everyone to pay for the warranty whether they want it or not.


It's a reasonable of life warranty in nz. 2 years is standard for products. But a fridge would reasonably expect to last for all least 4 years so the manufacturer would be obligated to cover it if say the compressor failed. But if it was something like an electric toothbrush then 2 years would be the warranty.
