We got AppleCare for exactly this reason. But I'm not even sure it's covered.

Her past laptop was $1,100 (2010 MacBook Air) and lasted 7 years. If this one ($1,500) doesn't last that long, it'll be a waste of money.

Similar boat, my previous laptop was a 2011 MacBook Air, the one before that I think was 2006.

FWIW my friend's replacement was covered. Not sure how much of that is the shop's judgement on "well you shouldn't have gotten dust in it."
