Summary, Pros, Cons
Panasonic provides a killer warranty program for the F100 series! Standard is three years parts and labor (that's about as good as it gets, in terms of duration), optional one or two year extended warranties are available.
Of most significant note, though is Panasonic's "Zip-it" program. For all three years, should your F100 series projector malfunction, Panasonic will overnight you a loaner unit (paying the freight), you toss your original unit in the box the loaner came in, and Panasonic pays the freight back to service. When fixed, they will return it to you, and you ship back the loaner. Again, Panasonic pays all the freight. In some cases, Panasonic will offer you the option to keep the loaner as a replacement unit. (Companies and schools that use asset tracking, normally want to keep the original unit, while the rest of us, would just as soon, get in the replacement, and ship out the broken one, and be done with it. Nice to have a choice, though.

This is one of the very best warranties available out there, and more to the point, far, far better than most competitors provide! Off the top of my head, out of 60 brands of projectors, there are only one or two others with three years warranty and either a replacement or loaner program for all three years.
