Everyone knows this tablet and deal, back at £34.95, in before the usual JL 2 year warranty crew!
8gb version, various colours.

It would make sense to buy them more of these rather than £300+ iPads, that's for sure.

I've bought one. couldn't care less about the warranty period, the kids will smash it to bits soon enough anyway.

The fire kids gives 2 years warranty for anything, even if they can trash it. Also comes with a kid proof case, ours has been dropped down stairs and everything.

Has been on here many times before, but over one month since last time, so I guess okay to post again.

Got 2 for the kids(aged 3 & 6) for Christmas and both screens are broken as they keep dropping it way too often.... just contemplating whether to buy again or just forget it

Buy them the kids edition then - which is replaced by amazon with no questions asked.

My kids have had theirs for 2 and a half years and I have never had this problem. Buy a good case for kids they are worth it if they save the screen getting smashed. I found the rubber ones work best

Not sure if you've already been suggested this. Get the same tablet with the kids package thing from amazon. They will replace it no questions asked for two years and I think you also get access to a lot of content for a year. Costs just about twice the price of one.

You're better off getting Amazon Fire for Kids - it comes with 2-year worry-free guarantee

how easy is it to root a fire tablet?

But easy enough to copy / install other apps onto it which is what I did - but only use for watch Prime (downloaded) on the train.

Thank you OP, got one for myself last time but have been waiting for price to drop again to get one for youngest son's birthday.

i might be in the minority but i did think a guarantee covered broken screen. however JL electronics customer services dept soon put me right on this. i did get them to replace with a new one but that is another story !

It won't cover a broken screen if 'you' broke it, this applies to pretty much every warranty in the World, but of course with some products you can get accidental damage cover too.

You can't buy jl added care on this tablet. I tried in store and doesn't meet the added care criteria. They said Amazon will replace if any problems
