I bought a Kenmore front load dryer in Sept of 2014, have not had it for even 2 years yet. My issues started to happen 2 months after I bought it. First it was not turning off even when you press the cancel button. Had a tech come out and fix it. Today the dryer shocked me, burnt the closing door button and now it doesnt turn on at all. Called Kenmore and they will not replace it because my warranty is expired. I believe a dryer shouldnt shock you at all. Not even 2 years I had this dryer and its broken. I have a dryer thats 15 years old and runs to this day without any repairs. Shame on you Kenmore for not standing by your products. Will not be a returning customer!

The Elite series washer and dryer set are priced pretty high however I am in an area without many choices. The machines operations are good however it is difficult to read the selections to choose from for setting the mode. I would recommend this pair.

I inherited my grandparents Kenmore washer and dryer when they passed away. The washer and dryer must have been well over 10 years old and still alive and kicking! I used them for at least another 5 years or so before I had to replace the dryer. I was so impressed with how long this set of washer and dryer lasted, that I ended up replacing them with newer models of Kenmore. I really liked that they cleaned my clothes well, dried them good and the products lasted so long! If they are good enough for my grandparents, then they are good enough for my family and I.

I have had Kenmore washers and dryers for years, have a ten+ year old set in one house and two four year old sets in another house and an apartment, they just keep on running...When they retire I will replace them with a new set of Kenmore appliances....

It worked well for the price. It lasted a few years before I had to replace it. Overall I did enjoy it for the quality cleaning it provided for me and my clothes. It lasted a long time and managed to keep my clothes dry and clean without taking a long time. It was a quality piece of machinery that makes me want to go and get another. The look is very professional and clean, without being too distracting. I enjoy its quiet presence, not needing to be flashy to be appealing to consumers. I would buy another soon. The washer and dryer are worth the price for the amount of time they last. I feel that it is important to find a good deal, and these two are just that for anyone on a budget.

The washer wasnt the most high-tech washer Ive ever seen, but it does its job. Ive found a lot of newer washers dont last as long but this one has lasted and cleans clothes thoroughly. Traditional white washer. Nothing extra special. It looks like a washer, but it goes with my dryer. It was expensive, but not unreasonable for a washer. It runs well and lasts, so for me it is worth the money. I would buy this washer again but maybe a newer version.

The drum bearing of my 8-year old Kenmore washer with matching dryer went out. The cost of the part is $2. Service man quoted $972 to fix. What is Sears thinking? Plain obsolescence! Kenmore is not manufactured to have the bearing replaced. You have to buy the complete drum and spin basket. Ridiculous. Its built to fail in a Frigidaire plant. Dryer is designed to fit only another Kenmore product. So, I also have to buy a new dryer. Needless to say, it will not be Kenmore and it will not be purchased at Sears. I will buy a Meile washer and dryer and never buy from Sears again. No wonder they are failing. I would prefer to support local businesses, but until they realize consumers are tired of paying high prices for Chinese garbage, smart consumers will seek superior quality in brands made in Europe.

I bought the front load washer and dryer. They are both large capacity machines which is great. However the washer begins molding within the first few uses unless we leave the door open after use. It also collects coins, hair clips and a wide variety of items in the pump and lines which caused its replacement the first year. Will never purchase another front load washer. The Dryer has been wonderful, but we have had to replace the heating coils after two years. Dries a large load very quickly though.

It works great. It cleans the clothes well, is big enough for a family and it is the only brand I would own. I have never had a problem with any of them I owned. I have had 6 washer and dryers over the years, bought brand new and they lasted over 10 years. They are very reliable. I would not own anything other than this brand. They are great looking. They are well put together, not too complicated to use. They come in many colors to suit your decor. They are easy to use. They are very cost effective, do not cost a lot like most washer and dryers. I feel they are the best for the price and quality. They last longer than the ones that cost a lot more.

The dryer has adequately provided for the course of 6 years to date. It has proper drying levels which allow for delicates and towels and has served its purpose for a growing family. The dryer is particularly reliable. It has handled a family of seven as well as many other guests over the course of the years and has handled all imaginable load sizes. The appearance is nothing special and we dont expect much from clothes dryers really. We simply expect versatility, quick drying and the ease of load and remove especially when having children doing the bulk of the laundry. The value speaks for itself. Any dryer that can withstand the usage of a growing family of seven over the course of a couple decades is well worth its weight in gold.

Reliable. I have had a Kenmore for over 40 years. When I want to replace my washer/dryer I go to Sears first because I know I will get the top rated products. They have good selection of washer/dryers, their service people are knowledgeable, and I know I am getting a good product.

I loved my dryer. It performed all the function it said. It never shrunk any of my clothes. As long as you put it on the right setting! I wouldnt buy any other brand for my clothes. The dryer I bought was perfect for my family of 6. It always dried my clothes, and left them wrinkle free. I recommended their product to all of my friends and family. Kenmore has an excellent appearance. I love how everything is organized and label with different settings, so you know which one to use for different clothes. Ive had mine for the last ten years. They are very reliable dryers. I am truly amazed that its still running great. Ive never had any problems with my dryer.

No agitator; it’s water saver; therefore, clothes come out looking dingy and spotted. The dryer has never worked on the “hot” cycle. I have to do 2 cycles to have the clothes coming out of the dryer looking “dry”.

One of the best washer I came across. It washes good. Gets your clothes clean. I have never had a problem... I would recommended this washer to my family and friends. If this one would ever break down I would buy the same one. It is a very large washer. Fit a lot of clothes in one load and it still washes good and get my clothes sparkling clean... I couldnt of got a washer this good for this low of a price. This was the best deal I ever have gotten... I love the both of them. I couldnt live without a washer or dryer. I wash and dry clothes once a week. I have had my washer and dryer for over a year. And not once did I ever have problems with them. Its not that loud either. You can barely hear it rubbing...

It works very well and dries the clothing. It leaves my clothing fluffed, not wrinkled, and is very quiet. I have never had to get it repaired. It works efficiently. It does not generate much lint either. I like the sleekness and color of the dryer. I like the buttons on the dryer too. It is easy to operate. It fits well in the laundry room too. It opens well and fits many clothes in it. It is a good value for the money. It does not need to be repaired. It cuts down on my electric bills too.

I have had a Kenmore washer and dryer that lasted for at least 8 years. We recently moved and left the Kenmores at our house that we sold. I think the new people will have some year of service from our Kenmores. Also, we left them a Kenmore refrigerator with side freezer. Sears has good quality Kenmore appliances and I feel I can always trust Kenmore appliances.

Recently purchased Kenmore washer and dryer from Sears. Used the washer first time this evening. Midway to the wash/spin cycle, it made very loud noise, vibrated severely, jumped around, its side wall hit the edge of the nearby counter top leading to a dent/scratch, crushed the pipes between the machine the wall, damaged the vent pipe of the dryer, hit the dryer and pushed it around. A broken piece of bolt flew out of the machine. I stopped the machine. There were some broken pieces of plastic on the floor behind the washer. Called 1-800-469-4663. After a long hold and 2 transfers, someone scheduled an appointment with a technician 5 days from today. Very disappointing!

This was a very dependable dryer. Dried clothes quickly and lasted for years with no problems. It had to be serviced only once all the years we owned and would highly recommend in the future. It worked reliability everyday it was needed. It helped raise three girls and kept their clothes bright and fresh many years. I was sad to see it leave when it was replaced. The dryer looked very good and its paint and looks did very well even though it was in a damp basement on a cement floor. I would recommend this unit to anyone. This dryer was a great value. I wish they still made them as well as this one was. I dont remember what paid but we received many years of service from this dryer.

It works every time I use it so I am happy that I havent had to fix the dryer. My washer is me more and I havent had to get that fixed either. I am overall happy with my experience. My washer and dryer both seem to be very reliable. I do laundry every week and it always works for me. Sometimes it makes a loud noise but it seems to fix itself. I consider it reliable. I guess the appearance of my washer and dryer is fine. They are both placed in the basement so it doesnt matter very much. If we move them upstairs I will want more attractive machines. My value on these machines is very good because they were given to my boyfriend and I and we havent had to put any money into them to keep them working.

Work great. Best brand. We have this set about 10 year. We love this brand and will buy another set broke. We let our friends know about Kenmore. They love it too. This is our second set washer and dryer and fridge and freezer too.

All the Kenmore appliances that weve owned, especially the refrigerator, have lasted long past the usual life expectancy of appliances. I think we had the refrigerator about 25 years with only 1 or 2 service calls. Our Kenmore clothes dryer is nearing 20 years and still works great!.

I had the washer and dryer for about 10 years. No problems with dryer but I had to have the washer repaired a few times. Overall like the Kenmore brand. Very reliable for the dryer. I have a family of 5 so I used them daily. The washer broke a belt and was very loud at times. I can not remember all the repairs but I had at least 7 calls for repairs over 10 days. I bought the basic model with no frills. The washer and dryer are both white and easy to keep clean. They look very good in my utility room next to each other. I purchased the base model with no special options. I have been very happy with the washer and dryer, and with the price I had to pay for them. I used the washer and dryer daily, and they were dependable.

I have owned my Kenmore for about 3 years now and it still run like it is brand new. My mother had used Kenmore while she was raise me and my brother and sisters. And she was very happy about it so it was kind of passed along to me. I will never change what type of washer and dryer machine I own. I am a customer for life.

Kenmore washers and dryers and are excellent in providing great clothes products. They are reliable and easy to use. Another quality is that you can get great service without paying a huge price for the Kenmore products. You can use the dryer for dry cleaning with Dryel, which is a method of dry cleaning at least four articles of clothing in each load. You just put your clothes that need drying clothing into the washer with dryel, which also has a pre-treatment for stains and other problems with your clothes. This can save you a bundle of money. Whether you are doing regular washing and drying with household items such as towels, sheets, or other things, the final results or appearance of the items you are cleaning is very satisfying. Because of the outcome, you will never have to use a professional dry cleaners which can save you a bundle of money, with the same outcome, great looking items.

My mom purchased a Kenmore washer & dryer when we moved to Rialto back in 1962. My wife and I recently moved to the city of Banning 3 years ago and that is probably the only reason I replaced the old with the new. AND we only had to call for service on it 3 times!

The washer has many different options which is great for my husbands heavy soiled work clothes, extra large load option plus a second rinse and a soak option for my pretreated items. Love it. I can always count on my dryer. I never have to dry more than once. I love the quick wrinkle setting, great for work clothes. The air only works great for rugs and pillow. My washer and dryer are good old fashion white. Pretty simple, no extreme amounts of buttons. Also pretty easy to use, not difficult. Plus a buzzer mute option. My washer and dryer value is priceless. They have paid for themselves repeatedly. I would recommend them to everyone.

They last a long time. Dont tear up easy. Big tub. I love this washer. They work great and is quiet too. Got great settings on them. It better than any other brands on the market. They work great and looks great. It gets your clothes cleaner, saves on your light bill. The dryer has a large tub, great settings. Reasonable price. Great warranty. Dries clothes in less than 45 minutes for large load of blue jeans. Only Kmart and Sears sells this brand.

I bought Kenmore washer and dryer in 07. I had to have washer repaired 4 or 5 times. The repairpersons always say they have to replace the board. Todays repairman had to get instructions from someone on the phone in order to complete the task. I am washing now and it is making the same sound it did before repair was done. It sounds like a German tank. I am sure I will have further problems. My Kenmore dryer makes a very loud whining noise. I have used Kenmore washers and dryers for 40 years. This is the first time I have had these kinds of problems.

Only a few things to fix in a few years. So, I can live with it, but I wish that the dryer would dry faster. We have had an issue in the past with what I guess you would call the drum of the dryer knocking around very loudly. It cost about fifty dollars to fix, but we didnt have the money for a new washer and dryer.

I had a Kenmore top loading washer with a dryer for about 10 years before the washer died. Both units were great and without issues. Our replacement washer/dryers were also Kenmore. Both front loading machines. Still love them!

We purchased the Kenmore Elite washer (and dryer) at the Leesburg, FL store location prior to moving from Leesburg to Crossville, TN. in 2006. It was delivered to our TN address (**) from the Cookville, TN. Sears store. Not long after, I wrote a letter to Sears regarding a problem with it becoming (seriously) unbalanced during the wash cycle. I sent pictures of a wash load whereby a single item so completely covered the remaining items that it looked like a giant mushroom. The response - use the correct wash cycle!!! Hello-I was not born yesterday & have been using washing machine for years. It is now 2014, we are back in Florida, same washer & it is worse than ever!!! I literally have to unbalance almost EVERY load, regardless what I am washing.Today it was four very lightweight shirts, two bras & a couple pair of undies...on the delicate/had wash cycle & I had to manually unbalance the load no less than EIGHT times. Please advise if I have ANY recourse. I had no idea this was such a widespread problem. We NEVER received a notice or letter from Sears on the matter (other than telling me how to wash clothes when I did complain!). Thank you.

A few years ago we purchased a washer and dryer (front -load) for condo living from Sears. Fortunately, before the warranty had expired (1 year) the dryer stopped working and it was replaced. Not pleased with the situation but it happens. At the time of purchase we opted for warranty on both the items but as time passed the cost of the warranty kept increasing and it was decided that we should discontinue the warranty as it was becoming very costly. Not long after the decision was made the washer stopped working. It was not within our budget to replace these costly items and thus I had no other choice but to use public laundry (not hygienic) - therefore we never purchase Kenmore products again! Given the inconvenience that I and my family have had to go through I feel that I should be compensated for this?!

My Kenmore washer and dryer have been great. Theyre about 18 years old and electronic controls and I havent had a lick of trouble with them. I grew up with Maytag and they were every dependable but also every costly. So go with Kenmore and get the dependability you want without the higher cost.

Machine at times sounds horrible. Called repair and they claimed, that is the way it is. The nature of the beast. When it stops, get a new one. Unfortunately, my parents machines were still motoring well over 20 years! I have their gas dryer which is over forty years old! Too bad, I listened to my wife, she bought a new one because of appearance!!!

No problems at all in 15 years including heating element which is the most common failure. Clothes are dried exceptionally well and lint free for the most part. We have used extensively. Would buy again. I would highly recommend and would replace in kind when needed. Great value considering competition and features actually used. Too many others have features never used and therefore useless for the money. More than adequate for my needs. A good bang for the buck and very reliable. We use several times a week with all clothes.

Do not. I repeat do not buy this appliance. I purchased a stackable Kenmore washer and dryer FIVE MONTHS ago from Sears and it has broken down TWICE! I have been without a W&D for nearly a month and all I get from Sears is a shoddy product and poor customer service. And delay, delay, delay. Go to Lowes or the guy on the corner. I am sure you will get a better quality product and customer care.

Bought my top load washing machine with matching dryer 11 years ago and have never had any issues with it. My 19 year old grandson does his own laundry too and figured out all the features on his own.

I loved the washer. It was a front loader. We have had it for over 10 years. Does a very good job of washing the laundry. It is very quick at washing the clothes and very quiet. Could not even tell if it was on and running, thats how quiet it is. Also has many settings on the washer but I only need a few like delicate and normal. Now the dryer you can tell it is on as you hear the cloth tumble inside but still it is a great dryer. It does its job good and we are happy with both the washer and dryer.

They are well made, and work well for a long time. I like the brand, and I am proud to have it in my home. Not only do they work well, they look great too. I like people seeing my washer and dryer. I love that I havent had any problems with it.

This dryer had a large enough drum to hold large loads. Consistently dries clothes very well considering the size of loads. Very simple to use and at a good price. Very good machine. Installs simply. Have had no problems the entire life of the machine. Never had It break down and have any issues. Very reliable. I bought this dryer in a traditional white color, Standard color and thats what I prefer over a color or stainless steel. Looks very up to date, stylish and still be simple. This brand and style of appliance is a very good value. One of the best prices in its category. Others you pay a lot for the brand name. On this you pay for the performance.

They have been good, but the dryer is dying after ten years. It is a stack unit, and I am not impressed with the dryer at all. The washer is awesome, and is full size which is also excellent. Honestly, it just keeps on working, other than the dryer not being really effective. I thought it was due to the venting. But I changed the hose and that still doesnt work.

Those machines took a lot of use and never stop working. We were a family of 5 and so they were used at least 10 times a week. If not for the reliability I dont know how we would have gotten along. The benefits of those machines were greatly appreciated with the usage that my family put on them. I would recommend them to others and if I were living in a house I would get another Kenmore washer and dryer. I didnt care for the square shape or the hideous color, but considering that back in the 70s those were the fashion shades of choice. At that time the prices were very reasonable, today they would be considered as low priced.

My Kenmore top load high efficiency washing machine has a large tub so you can effectively clean a large load of clothes or a heavy winter quilt. The dryer easily dries the large loads and the great thing about the dryer is that everything comes out with no wrinkles.

I bought a Kenmore Elite Oasis HE automatic washer model number 110.27067601 serial number CT0570011 in late 2008 (along with the dryer). I also bought a one year extended warranty for it. Shortly after, the machine had the F1 error code and could not function. I called, a technician came out and replaced the control board. A couple years later, I had the same problem. The machine gets the F1 code while filling. I had to press the stop and start button at least four times to get the machine running again. Then 20 minutes before the cycle is over, it has another F1 error code. This time I have to press stop and start four more times. Being a busy physician I did not contact Sears and just tolerated the inconvenience for several years.I called and schedule a service call on March 20th, 2015. The technician, ** came to my house on March 25, 2015 along with another technician **. They did some diagnostic with their computer and told me I need a new control board. I asked ** what is the warranty for this new control board. He told me its only 90 days. I told him it is a bad product. He proceeded to argue with me he had nothing to do with it. Its the manufacturer of the board. I told him when I bought a machine I dont know whats inside. Anyway, an argument ensued. ** walked out and refused to service my machine. I was told the control board itself costs $180, with labor the total cost would have been $280. The board clearly is defective and theres no solution other than frequent costly replacement.If you take into consideration the cost of $300 with 90 days warranty. Essentially if the breaks down every 90 days, I would be wasting $300 every 90 days. The cost of owning this machine is prohibitive. In summary this machine is a lemon and its criminal for your company to put your name on it as your store brand and sell it for a high price. I would like to request one of the following solutions: 1) Refund for the cost of the machine, $800. 2) If refund is not possible, I request you provide to me another washing machine of my choice of similar value free of charge. 3) If both solutions 1 or 2 are not possible, I request for the next 15 years, that you provide free service and parts every time I get the F1 code. I feel extremely angry and deceived. As you can tell many other customers feel the same way as I have found on the internet. I am livid and would take the issue up with appropriate overseeing agencies to warn others of your callous practice of selling expensive appliances that dont work.

We were looking to upgrade and I needed a washer dryer that could stack. We chose this washer dryer because we like the Kenmore brand. My husband and I looked at several brands and we thought this was the best option for our needs. Its a stackable front loader and its also a high efficiency and I thought it would be better than my old washer. But it doesnt seem to clean smaller loads as well as Id like and we often rewash it. Also, the front loader gets build up in the rubber around the front and cause a smell. Its difficult to clean that area too.

We have been a owner of Kenmore products over the year including the clothes washer and dryer. The earlier machines were never as good as our latest model. For the past ten years, our Kenmore set has been serving us well and hope to get another 10 years or more. The features on our washer is easy to understand and use. Very energy efficient and gentle on the clothes, just wish that Sears Canada had to go out of business.

I like the ease of turning the washer on to clean my clothing. I like how it has the cleaning functions and how I am able to do a light and deep clean. I also like how the clothes maintain a stronger freshness when using this washer. It is highly effective and works to perfection. I just wish they came in more colors and had more variety. I like all the features this dryer has, especially the extra spin cycle feature. I would recommend noise reduction however, as this dryer is very loud. I loved the Kenmore brand. I have always been a fan of Kenmore washers and dryers and I have many other Kenmore products that work extremely well and that are extremely effective in getting the job done in terms of cleaning my clothing so I purposely chose the Kenmore brand because it had the best design and fit. The Kenmore washer has surpassed my expectations and is a brand that I love tremendously and dearly.

Kenmore appliances have always stood for quality, from washers and dryers to refrigerators. I am particularly impressed with the inclusion of frequently used features and the exclusion of fluff or useless ones. I would recommend a Kenmore to anyone looking for a reliable, high-quality, well-featured appliance.

This dryer works well. It is somewhat noisy, and the inside turned black around the circle air vents. It dries very well. Definitely a good investment. Ive had it about three years. Only if I put several pairs of heavy jeans in together do I have to add more heat. Otherwise its one heat cycle and Im assured everything is dry. Its not the sexiest looking dryer. Pretty old school, and very 1950s white, but it matches the rest of my appliances I inherited when I moved into the home. I purchased the dryer so I did have options. Reviews were good, so I went with it. Cant beat the price. I believe I paid under $450 with installation. Its a good investment. So far I havent had any problems. The value was a big selling point.

Do not buy this item. We spent a lot of money in the pair washer/dryer and the washer started to rust around the bleach compartment within months (even though I have never used bleach on my clothes). I wished I had read the reviews online. There are hundreds of reviews where people complain about the rusting on this machine. Im planning on talking to a lawyer, and open a Class Action Lawsuit. This machine should be on their list of recall items and people should be compensated. My friend had the upper part replaced but started rusting again within months after use. Sears appliances (Kenmore) are not what they used to be. I am actually closing my credit card I have with them. Very disappointed! Advice: Dont buy this washer, it will RUST!

My experience has been wonderful. The clothes come out very clean and they wash in record time! The kenmore dryer is perfect for large quantities of laundry and it gets all lint off of my clothes. I would recommend anyone to buy this brand of appliance.

This dryer has AMAZING performance. I have very large comforters and had to always bring them to laundromats because of the size, until I bought this. It is very efficient on energy and spacious enough to wash some of the largest items. The reliability of this unit is SPECTACULAR! I have never had a single issue with it, not one. Others I have owned I have had issues with a few years into owning it. The appearance of this is great! Its attractive and elegant. It was a little more expensive than others in its class but with the savings in the energy usage and the physical size of the washer as far as what can fit in it, it is WELL worth the extra cost than others in its class! Value wise I HIGHLY recommend it!

My 80 year old mother bought a new Kenmore washer and dryer from Sears June 30, 2011. The last 2 weeks, the operation has been sporadic, and as of today, it wont fill or run through a cycle. She bought these to replace a 12 year old washer and dryer. I called Sears helpline and they couldnt find any record and immediately wanted me to schedule a $79.00 service call. I was eventually put on hold while she checked on something. 5 minutes later, another lady came on the phone and had no idea why I was calling. After some troubleshooting, she told me I needed either a control board or a lid switch and asked me again if I wanted to schedule a $79.00 service call. I have never had a major appliance fail after only 3 1/2 years. Seems like the helpline just wanted to sell me a service call. If I have to replace this washer, you can rest assured it will not be with another Sears product since they dont stand behind this inferior product.

It was very useful. I liked the amount of power it had. It dried my clothes quickly. However, it made my house very hot. Every time I went upstairs, I could feel the heat from the dryer. Im not sure if it is the dryers problem or my own. It is reliable. It is not the best Ive ever had, but it is fine. I liked how it dried things very efficiently, but like I said before, Im not happy about how hot it made my house. It is quite attractive. It looks very modern and its the best-looking dryer Ive ever owned. I have other issues with it, but not appearance. The value is average. It is not the best, like many of the other features of this. However, I dont have a huge problem with it.

I bought a Kenmore washer and dryer in August 2013, and was told I would never have problems. The washer doesnt clean anything and always smells. The dyer collects fluff and dust, a fire hazard under the filter. You need to vacuum the area when you remove the filter or the dryer fluff accumulates. So my washing machine is 1 year and one month and has totally died. There is nothing to do but spend more money. I have no more money. My previous washer and dryer lasted 20 years, with 3 kids. I hate Kenmore and will never buy anything from Sears ever again. This should not happen.

Got machine free. Was 26 years old then. Have had it for 8 years and works great and cleans very good. Never have had a problem with machine since I got it. Works as if it was a new machine but it is a relic in my shed. Mfg. could learn from OLD KENMORES! They make nothing but CRAP these days and there is plenty of proof by the massive repair bills floating around. Appliances today are not reliable. Sister bought a new Maytag with dryer. Computers keep breaking down and it costs a small fortune to fix! Doesnt matter on cost if machine lasts. Today most of my friends who have purchased new machines (last 3 years) have all had their machines repaired. Does not say much for the quality these days. My Kenmore - 32 years old still runs great!

Its a great brand. Long lasting. Well worth the price. Also very easy to maintain. I would highly recommend Kenmore appliances. Ive had my dryer for a very long time and it still works like new.

Works and clean my and my family clothes. We bought it few years back and thankfully its still working pretty well. And it is also an energy saver. Quick to dry. My washer and dryer is pretty reliable. It seems to dry my and my family clothes in time of need. The washer and dryer appearance is like any other washer and dryer. It washes and dries clothes. I am satisfied with it appearance that is why I bought it. The perceived value of the is kind of pricey... as for anything else it can be little less but its not. And company knows if an household needs it they will buy it.

I tried Whirlpool at one time and the spin cycle in washer was out of place and shook all over the place so I wasnt fond of Whirlpool so I chose Kenmore. The dryer is pretty fast and keeps clothes pretty warm when drying compared to some dryers where they would have clothes that would feel cold or still not dry as you took them out of the dryer. But sometimes I would have to start it up two or three times for it to be completely dry after awhile of use. It was good to start out with but as years went on it was time to replace the dryer because of this issue.

This washer and dryer pair got plenty of use by my two kids, my mother, and myself! Im not sure how long they normally last, but they got a lot of use! They were heavily used, I would say daily for about 12 years. They were very dependable. Actually I could have fixed them, but I wanted a new set. I only used water to wipe them off, but they always maintained a new look. I would suggest this brand to anyone with a large family. They were a good looking pair! It definitely was a good value. I looked around at other brands and I think I got more features on mine than others offered for the same price.

It is an amazing machine. I love how efficient it is. It always works amazing. I recommend this machine to everyone who is looking for an awesome experience with a new set washer and dryer. I love mine and I wouldnt change it. It fits a very large load of clothing and towels. It doesnt take very long to dry at all and it always works amazingly.

I loved the Kenmore brand. I have always been a fan of Kenmore washers and dryers and I have many other Kenmore products that work extremely well and that are extremely effective in getting the job done in terms of cleaning my clothing so I purposely chose the Kenmore brand because it had the best design and fit. I like the design of the refrigerator, how it looks, its nice shape, as well as all of the unique features it has. I also like how the refrigerator cools food and how effective it is at keeping things fresh as well. I like everything about the refrigerator. It is a good refrigerator.

Performs great. Some improvements could be noise of clothes and heavy loads. I would like to let more heavier loads all at once. Overall very nice, cleans efficiently and takes my gratitude to a whole new level since I do have 6 people (including me). This dryer earns all of my respect since we cycle through clothes like crazy, having this dryer helps tremendously. Great duration and this dryer efficiently keeps my clothes from wrinkling and actually dries them. It has an amazing sign of duration. This dryer makes life a heck of a lot easier to go on! Appearance is nice and looks clean and cut. Doesnt look at all out of shape or breaks down any time soon. Love its design and its efficiency. Great value for the loads it can hold and the happiness of me with the less stress of other dryers takes value away. I would pay for this dryer without worrying about the value.

I love my washer and dryer. They work well and hold up well under extreme usage, and they last!! Whether its one load, or ten loads, I know I can count on my washer and dryer to take care of them quickly and efficiently. Doesnt matter how many loads of clothes I have to do, I know I can rely on my washer and dryer to help me get the job done fast and efficiently. Nothing fancy, but fancy isnt what cleans your clothes. They look like a washer and dryer are supposed to look like, top load washer, front load dryer. I know I have more than gotten my moneys worth out of my set, and its still going strong. Believe its gonna last for more years to come. Its the best money I have spent in a long time.

My husband purchased me a new Sears Kenmore Elite washer and dryer combination 2 years ago and I am very dissatisfied. Even he has become dissatisfied with the washer. With a full or 1/2 load the washer continues to go off track (UE) and when I reset the washer and think that its about finished, it replenishes with water. This is the worst washer machine ever. I will not purchase another.

Our Kenmore washer/dryer pair work beautifully, are inexpensive to operate, and have been wonderfully reliable. I would certainly buy them again. They wash extremely well and dry quickly and fully. Easy to operate and simple to load and unload. Highly recommended.

Wife and I bought a new washer & dryer from Sears, a Kenmore Elite Quad Action and 4 weeks later Im doing wash just pulled clothes out of washer and with lid up on my top load washer, putting detergent and the lid blow apart for no reason. Called Sears and got to wait 3 weeks to get someone out.

This washer and dryer are relatively quiet and so far have done a great job of cleaning and drying. I had limited space, but these two fit in the space provided just fine. I had a front load washer from a different manufacturer, but the pump went out after only 3 years, so I decided to try another brand. I have been very pleased so for. I needed a washer and dryer that would fit my quilts and larger items and these do the trick. They are great for those everyday items as well. I have used this brand for many years on other electrics and have never been sorry. This set has a very clean appearance and easy to use dials - not intimidating at all. They also have all of the basic wash and dry options that I need without all the ones I probably would not use anyway. The price I paid was as I expected it to be and about average compared to other options like these. The set up went very well and quickly - no trouble. I have had much more expensive sets, but have found out that I was paying for things I really did not need.

I have the set and the washer is fantastic. A part went out years ago and replaced it with no issues since. The dryer has had the thermostat and heating element changed and now something else has gone out and it will not run. But it ran great when it did. Other than my washer and dryer being clean in appearance, the overall shape, size and construct doesnt phase me and looks pretty consistent from one brands product to the other. I received mine as a gift from my mother, so in terms of value from the standpoint that it was a gift, the washer and dryer are badass.

I have had a Kenmore washer and dryer for over 13 yrs, they are still working and I like them. I have a Kenmore front loader, HE washer and it is still going strong after 13 years. I have a large Kenmore dryer that works well.

It does a good job getting the clothes clean. Best purchase choice I have made in a long time. I would definitely recommend it for doing a great job cleaning any size load. It is a good color, matches the dryer. Modern look piece of furniture. Makes a good addition to your laundry room. Cost efficient. It was well worth the money I paid for it. Happy with the washer.

This dryer works well, easy to use controller settings. Even my mother can use it. Love this dryer! After buying several high-end dryers that never last or dont work well. We decided to quit spending a ton of money on dryers! This by far has been our best dryer by a long shot! Works fantastic. Dries fast and get hit! Definitely would purchase again! It is a dryer, it is placed in the basement. I dont care about the appearance at all. It is cheap model and it was on sale when we bought it.

We bought this washer in ginger color and it started to rust in the top around the soap dispenser. We contacted Sears and we were told that rusting was not covered in their warranty, and they wanted us to buy their additional warranty policy. The washer has continued to rust and it looks terrible. I believe that they didnt put a protective seal on the paint. The washer and dryer are in an inside laundry room.

We purchased a new Kenmore 700 series high efficiency washer and dryer from Sears a year ago. These were expensive machines. We have had problems with both from day one but no luck with getting any repairs done and now the warranty is out. Sears doesnt want to talk about it and the warranty company only wants to sell more useless warranties. The washer plain and simple doesnt put enough water in the machine to wash anything. To do a small load I have to put it on the heavy setting and use the deep fill to get enough water to get the clothes even wet and then it takes nearly 2 hours to complete the load. If I put in anything more than a small load it starts screaming like it is going to explode. The only way to stop the noise is to drain the water, take out all but a couple of items and start again. This is not a high efficiency machine it is a no efficiency machine.It doesnt clean, it takes forever to complete a cycle and clothes come out dirty and tangled. The dryer isnt much better. It takes forever to dry and no matter what cycle I put it on the clothes are so wrinkled and tangled I have to iron everything, so to avoid that I mostly hang up all my clothes wet and dont use the dryer. I am a past laundromat owner and Ill tell you that these are the worst pieces of equipment ever put on the market!!! Sears/Kenmore should have to replace these machines with ones that work as they are advertised. My advice is to stay away from Kenmore and Sears to buy your appliances.

Nothing beats a Kenmore for durability and reliability. I got my dryer over 17 years ago, and have not needed one single service call on it. It may not be quite as efficient as it once was, but what is? When I put my clothes in and press the shart button, I know without a doubt that it will start and run. I never have to worry that this is the day for it to break down. Also, it has a good appearance. Finally, considering what I originally paid for it and how long Ive had it, Id say its been an amazing value. I can only hope all my appliances would last this long.

It is fast and very reliable. It is good for the environment and always dries quickly without wrinkles. Works well in the space with my washer and has a sleek finish. I can always count on it to work whenever I need clothes dried fast! It has never broken once, and it has outlived my washer which was more expensive. A sleek very professional look that fits in well, doesnt take up too much space and has great coloring! The buttons are nice and easy to use always! It is well worth the price! Will last for a long time and I would definitely get one if you are looking for a good priced dryer that will last a long time.

Performance of this particular washer is great. It cleans my laundry very well. I especially love how well it clean and remove stains from my young childs clothes since he is a very rough and tumble play outside in the dirt, fishing and camping etc. Gets all those fun-filled stains out, nearly always, on the first wash. I find this washer to be very reliable. I have had it now for some time and have not had any trouble with it as far as mechanical or broken parts. Holds up well even with doing laundry daily. I also have a matching dryer, maybe not exactly matching, but the two together are very visually appealing. Most laundry rooms arent clean, organized or aesthetically pleasing and I am proud to leave the door open to that room because it is the opposite of all of which I just described. The clean sharp look of the washer and dryer for sure make this area of my house more modern and wonderful. These two items I purchased and own are more expensive than a majority of your standard washer and dryers out there. I feel, however, they were worth the extra money spent. I would spend that again due to my satisfaction with these appliances.

Its performance is great! Enough room for everything and dries faster than most other dryers. I am really happy with the way it works and am beyond satisfied with its performance. I do believe it is reliable but have had some minor issues with it. Other than some minor issues it is great. I love the way it looks. That is one of the reasons that it was picked. It is a very good looking machine and would pick again solely on its appearance. The performance and other features are definitely more than what is on standard machines so the price is worth the value to me.

Front load large capacity washer is still going strong after almost 15 years. Only issue is mold buildup behind the rubber gasket that is difficult to clean. Does a great job of cleaning. The dryer lasted only 7 or 8 years. Circuit board started on fire a year after the recall expired. Replaced with an LG dryer that is great.

I have always bought Kenmore. They are very reliable. Love mine very much. I had one for over thirty years or more ran perfect. I had two very messy girls that loved to play house outside. They made mud pies. Needless to say they became very dirty. My washer and dryer ran all the time. Very reliable machine. I ran mine everyday. My kids and husband changed their clothes two to three times a day. My ex did concrete, work my kids were just messy. I would never buy any other brand. I just cannot say enough how reliable this is both washer and dryers are. Mine are white with blue around the knobs. They are an awesome pair of machinery. They run day after day with no issues at all. I would never consider any other brand. They are affordable and in this day of bloated prices on crappy machine. Price wise they are perfect. They are awesome. We need a decent price on things we use daily along with they run so well they give you years of use.

Have not had a Kenmore washer/dryer for more than 20 years. Kenmore was always dependable, and I liked what I had.

I had my washer & dryer for over 20 years and it performed well for me during those years. The only reason I preferred to get rid of them was because I had a major flood in my home and both of them were involved in the flood waters. I decided not to take a chance on them and gave them away.

I bought the Kenmore 600 series washer and dryer from sears with the warranty. So far no issues. The only thing I dont like is that I cant wash pillows in it because of the sensors weighing the laundry and the pillows floating it throws it off so it just keeps rinsing once on that cycle. But everything else washes great. All settings are effective. I have used liquid and powder and both rinse completely out of the tray.

Works like a normal dryer that dries clothing that is wet and soggy. Slightly unsightly. Not extremely loud, but certainly noticeable. Very reliable dryer, plenty of space for larger loads of clothes. Worked well for over 10 years without breaking or needing major repairs. Although its obviously not gorgeous, its simple and the design is clean. Easy to access buttons. Extremely large and clunky, takes up a large amount of space. Although I can no longer remember how much it had cost originally, I believe that this dryer is a good value for the price and reliability of the machine.

Very quiet, dries quickly and low on wrinkles. Uses less electricity than my previous dryer. Lint trap is easy to put in and out. Easy to read dials. Ending buzzer is loud enough to hear. Very reliable. I have not had one single problem. I would recommend it. Not a bad price but I find many things at Sears can be overpriced. I guess I could have bought a dryer at a lower price but, I live in an area where you cant shop around.

Honestly very reliable. Always ran well. Never had a problem with any of my Kenmore products. I had both a washer and dryer and also a fridge. I would recommend to anyone looking for a new appliance. Even used Kenmore brand stands strong. I think everyone in my family has or has had a Kenmore appliance at some point.

Great dependable machine. Never had a problem. Works great! Their products live up to their name. High quality, dependable, affordable, household efficiency. Weve had both the washer & dryer for about eight years now without incident. We highly recommend this line to friends, neighbors & family members for the best.

It is extremely efficient and holds up a lot better than most smart washers and dryers. I have never had a single bad issue with it and it takes a very short time to dry my clothing. Almost twice as fast as our old dryer. It is quite large and fits all of my clothing in it at one time. I love my dryer. I would say if I was ever in the market for another appliance I would look to this brand first. Its a front load dryer with a see through door and it has a steel drum. You can watch your clothing dry right in front of your eyes. It makes washing and drying your clothes easy. It wasnt the cheapest model that I could find, but that doesnt bother me because sometimes you have to pay a little extra to get a very good value. I dont regret this purchase. I got my moneys worth and more.

We have a Kenmore Elite Smart Wash Quietpak 4 model 11049962603 that we bought in 08/2009 with a 2-year warranty. It is now 11/2011. The machine was replacing a 30 yr. old Maytag that still worked. Our 30 yr. old dryer had died and we thought we would buy a new energy saving set. We were sorry we did. The Maytag would probably still be working. The washer just stopped working the other day. We called Sears Repair to fix it (thats where we got it from). The repair guy came out and said the motor board needed to be replaced. He quoted us $671.13 to repair it. We paid $863.99 plus taxes for the machine (see the problem here?). We refused service at this time, because we wanted to see if something could be done about the costs. In my opinion, we would be better off getting another new machine that doesnt have 2 years of wear and tear on it (we are out $129 for the service call already).I called their 800 number to see if anything could be done. Yes, this is outsourced. I wish they would give the jobs to Americans. We need all the jobs we can get. Well, as with many others, I was told there was absolutely nothing they could do except sell me a 1-year extended warranty for $319.99. It would cover the cost of the repair guy, any parts and labor up to $500. If we take this route, we will be out $129 for the original service call, $319.99 for the warranty, and $171.13 for the costs above $500. The grand total is $620.12 (not much savings here). I called the Escalation Department at 800-376-0557 (at least, I got an American this time). Again, I was told there was nothing they could do since the warranty expired 3 months ago on my 2-year-old machine.The entire time I questioned them all on the price of the part to fix our machine. The repair guy wanted to charge us $503 for the part. On the Sears website, the part is going for $372.70. I asked everyone why such a big difference in the price to no avail. I was told, I dont know anything about the website.” Or, I was told, The repair people and the website each charge their own prices.” I was told by the repair guy that if we picked up the part ourselves, he would install it for another $129 for the call. The grand total here is $501.70 plus the $129 for the original service call. Well, if you are going to gouge customers for not only the service call but also on the parts, I am taking my business elsewhere because of the principle of it all. My husband searched the part out at other places online and we found we could pick the part up starting at $142 for a refurbish and around $225ish for new (we may fix it ourselves).

I decided to buy a top-of-the-line Kenmore washer and dryer. Worked great for 4 months then started breaking. Constant breakdowns on the washer - not so much on the dryer. Purchased at Sears along with extended warranty. As I write this I have been waiting 4 weeks for repairs. Parts are never in stock and it takes 2 weeks for Sears tech to visit. As the repairman said last week I should follow the delivery truck each time a new one is delivered. That says it all.

The Load sensing Kenmore washer is outstanding. Nothing bothers me about it. I have been using it for three years. It takes extra large loads, and spins the clothes very well. Kenmore has an excellent reputation. Very few repairs are needed on Kenmore washer and dryers. I like how well the energy bills are. I have not had to make any repairs. The washer does not eat any of my socks, and I have not had to use any laundry bags for stockings or socks. Kenmore is customer friendly and always has options that meet the needs of the customer. I would highly recommend the load sensing washer, as it takes all the worry out of overloading the washer.

Have had my washer and dryer for over 15 years and have never had any problems with either machine. They work great. Large capacity washer holds lots of clothes and large capacity dryer dries lots of clothes. This cuts down on the time I have to spend doing laundry.

I purchased the pair of Kenmore Elite Oasis Canyon size washer and dryer in August of 2007. I have spent so much money on repairs, and I simply want to put it on the sidewalk with a warning sign for anyone who will take it. It began less than a year after I purchased it. First, it was the F1 code. It turns out that the control board was faulty. They paid for a portion of it, but I got stuck with the rest and the labor. Then, the dryer began acting up. It only dries the clothes on Timed Dry, and it usually takes 70 minutes to dry a load. Do you know how much power that uses? The washer has since been repaired two more times. The tub had to be replaced within the first 3 years. Now, I am getting the DL code, which means the door will not latch. There is nothing blocking this from happening. I just wish Sears would honor their products and care about their customers. I also wish Kenmore would stand behind their products. When I told the repairman that washers are supposed to last longer than a decade and he said, Not anymore.” They make them like this so they can break down, and the company can make more money. I am so sad and angry. I read the message boards from so many frustrated people like myself. We are living from paycheck to paycheck. These repairs are too costly, and so is going to the laundromat. Can someone please help us?

My dryer is quick, efficient, has energy saver features. I like the style of it and the size of loads it can do. I have put many different sized loads in it and the clothes come out wrinkle free. I like that I can change the settings for delicate clothing. One of the reasons I bought this dryer was the design. I needed a front loading washer and dryer for the design of my laundry room/bathroom. I have had many compliments on how they look. I paid a little more than I wanted to on this, but It has all the latest features and it is front loading like my washer. I have owned it for over 2 years and have had no maintenance issues with it.

I would certainly recommended this product to friends and family. I bought both a washer and dryer combo a year and a half ago and no problem with either. I had a Kenmore washer before and no Kenmore is a excellent brand name to buy.

It was made for a long time, very good. I think that I had it for years. Very simple to use, and not many buttons so you can use it easier. It is made very sturdy, had it for many years. Just a simple washer and dryer that doesnt have many setting, which I like. Nothing really fancy but sure last a long time. It is very plain, but has the three settings, and that is what I wanted or needed. I dont like all the fancy buttons on a machine. It is quiet, and works well. The value is the best, not too expensive and does everything that an expensive washer and dryer would do. It was less than the newer washers and dryers and I had it for years.

I bought this washer and dryer set less than a year ago from Sears, first mistake. The dryer works okay however the washer is a piece of junk. The water doesnt fill higher than the clothes. My clothes never come out clean, its very inefficient because we have to re-wash the clothes so I end up using more water and detergent. I wish I could attach pictures.

My Kenmore Calypso is 14 years old. No work EVER done on it. If it broke down tomorrow I cannot complain. My appliance repairman came out to work on my ice maker and he said I must be the only pet on planet Earth that has not had a problem with that washer but again no problems. My dryer is a Whirlpool with knobs. No electronics, it is 10 years old electric dryer. No problems ever.

My Kenmore dryer always has a constant heat that I can depend on. I can also count on my clothes never being wadded together, some of them still damp. I can always gauge the amount of time I need to set the dryer for based on my load size; it is predictable and reliable. It is easy to remove lint from the dryer and its parts, and easy to keep clean on the outside. I have been able to put my wet clothes in, set the time, and walk away knowing when it is finished, I will be able to fold and hang my laundry and put it away without some time of wrinkle or dampness issue.

Just works great. Load after load the washer gets my clothes cleaned. Just doesnt seem to wear and tear like others. It will eventually wear and tear but I feel this will last me the value I paid for it. My clothes are getting clean the same way as my very first load. Kenmore has reliability in its name and it shows in their products namely the washer. I feel Im gonna wash at least 1 million loads and each one will be like 1st wash. I am the type to enjoy fashion and this washer just doesnt have a sleek look. I know that people dont want to look at my washer and dryer but if it has a sleek, personal look, I would gladly show it off. I paid about $600 and it is well worth it.
