It always works perfect. It may not be very big, but it always does the job. I feel safe using this washer. It has had no problem whatsoever since I bought it. This washer is very reliable. It fits most of my loads and washes them properly. I like how it looks. It is modern, yet traditional. It doesnt look fancy but it looks like a good appliance. I like the color and the size. The price of this appliance is not too high, so I think it is good value for the money.

I have been using Kenmore products for 35+ years. I bought my last Kenmore 500 clothes washer about 3 years ago. I am disappointed that the gentle wash merely beats the heck out of the clothes for a couple of minutes, then stops for a minute, then thrashes them some more. My old Kenmore would agitate nice and slow, almost like a hand wash.

I have owned several Kenmore appliances in my life. I have never had much trouble with them. Just the normal wear and tear that you normally go through. Just recently bought a new washing machine because our old one finally kicked the bucket. I had no problem buying another one.

I bought the washer about 18 months ago. It quit working. Sears tech said main control board is defective. To me, that is a factory defect yet I had to pay 320 for extended warranty. Ive called many times, Sears just keeps throwing my calls between the reps. Ive not had a washer for a month!

Its a good size and works very good for many washes. It cleans well and not too big in size. I took the time to look for a washer that will last. It does the job by cleaning the first time really good. It can hold lots to clean which lessen the amount of washes. Overall I have been very happy with the overall quality. The appearance is ok. I mean its not too bulky and does not stick out of place. Easy to store in a area or any area for proper use. I think the color is good looking and seems to be lasting well. I think for the value it give you the best wash for buck. Also its not the top but works like the best in the market. I got a good warranty with and that made it even more happy to buy.

The unit (Washer/Dryer) have been working well for a long time now just like day one cleaning my tough stains & all with no problem. Even now my kids have no issue washing the game uniform which gives me more extra time to get my things done. But I was really raised on Kenmore products from my mom when I was growing up & the fact that theyre still making great products for me and my family to enjoy is the power of great long lasting products that stand the test of time.

I owned for more than 5 years and never any major problems. It is a very reliable machine without a lot maintenance. It dry the clothes good after 60 minutes of run. Sometime longer for one load. The performance decrease with age, it works great for the first 5 years. My washer color is white, medium size, perfect to fit the laundry room in the bathroom, it is made of iron and dont slide or move around. The value is average, no luxurious or high end. Just something reliable and functional. Something easy to use, something you can use everyday.

Kenmore Series 500 Wash Machine: Bought this machine over a year ago after my old Kenmore wash machine died. In summary: Its A LEMON. Does not put in enough water to cover clothes, no matter what setting I use and I have had nothing but trouble with it. Ive had the repair service come out 3 times now and Sears will still not put in a new sensor even though the express setting doesnt work at all and the lid stays in lock mode from time to time. **I HAVE TO ADD WATER WITH A HOSE RUNNING FROM MY GARAGE SINK TO GET ENOUGH WATER INTO THE MACHINE TO PROPERLY WASH MY CLOTHES**. I figured this out when I first got the machine and my clothes smelled like I had just pulled them out of a dirty hamper after running them through the wash and dry. Advice? Save your money, do your research and buy and better machine.

Lady Kenmore super capacity - It was top of the line at the time, $600.00. Electronic sensor temperature settings. Everything from heavy soiled cotton settings to delicate settings. Powerful motor. Kenmore from Sears that was bought in 1992. It was reliable. It had the largest clothes capacity at that time. I have absolutely no complaints about this washer. I have had this appliance for 24 years. I look for top brand names with stellar operational ratings. I look for online reliability reports. I look at price and warranty. I look at customer service records. I will only buy super capacity washers. I am not concerned about energy efficient ratings. If the washer is reliable, I am willing to pay the price. I will always go with name brands such as Kenmore or Maytag. I have never had to repair my Lady Kenmore washer in 24 years. If the washer frequently required repairs, I would steer clear of the brand from now on. I have had no problems with paint chipping nor any problems with the appliance eating my clothing. My Lady Kenmore Ultra Fabric Care Heavy Duty 90 series has been fantastic. It has 8 temperature cycle and 5 cycle modifier settings. It was the most expensive washer at the time but well worth the money. This washer moves an oversized load of clothes just as efficiently as a small size load. The electronic temperature settings are an added benefit. If you are washing clothes in the winter and need for the water to be properly balanced, this will electronically monitor the temperature of the water and will create the proper amount of hot and cold water combination for the desired suitable water temperature. This product is wonderful!

Worked great, never really had any problems. The model I had I wish would have had a bigger drum and no agitator. For the price, all in all it was a great product...

This washer is great as far as capacity and is energy efficient which is great. However, it is CONSTANTLY uneven, even after the tech was out and replaced the control board, rotors, and a number of other working parts. Ive had tech out a total of 3 times and Im now scheduled for a 4th appointment and I dont know what the tech is going to do to fix it now because pretty much everything on this washer has been replaced. Honestly, I would like a different style of washer because this one has not lived up to its expectations. Im very dissatisfied but luckily I have the 5 year warranty through SEARS because I would be paying a lot for parts and labor if I didnt. I was told that this washer was recalled and I can definitely see why.

We bought a 700 series washer in September 2017. Weve had the tech out twice because it WILL NOT RINSE THE SOAP OUT OF GARMENTS. We were told to only use heavy duty or white cycles with double rinse, softner and prewash. This doesnt work either. Weve had Kenmore for 50 plus years in our household and if I could sell it with a clear conscience I would in a heartbeat! I realize Sears is having financial problems but as a minimum they should recall these machines and fix them somehow. If not I think from reading others reviews and knowing several that have the same problems with the 700 series there is bound to be a class suit considered.

Very efficient, didnt use a lot of water or power and was very quiet. It was very simple to use and even did large loads quickly. I was very satisfied with this washer. It was very reliable, it last about 15 years before we had to replace it. It never gave us trouble at all, and we never had to replace any parts on it. It was very nice looking. It was bright white and matched the paint in our utility room. It had smooth corners and looked very modern and appealing. Wouldnt change anything about it. This was a very good, reliable washer for the price. It was on the lower budget price side but it still gave us many years of use for the price.

It does not clean very well. It also stopped working multiple times. It leaked water consistently as well. Sometimes it would make very loud beating noises as it was spinning. It would work when it wanted to. About half of the time it would not work. It was always being repaired. It was not a very good machine. It looked like any other washer out there. But it was lacking in options to choose from. However, it did have the basics in order to get the job done. It did not cost any less than most other brands. I feel that if I had spent the same amount on another brand, that I would have a working machine.

Ive never had anything so liberating in my life. The thing is awesome. I always go with Kenmore. Whenever my appliance breaks down I always buy a new Kenmore. Any clients that I have its always Kenmore. My Kenmore washing machine is so durable. Ive only had to call Kenmore out one time to come and repair something and it was minor and it wasnt their fault or the washing machines fault. It was my small child climbing on top of it and jumping up and down LOL. And I think if that hadnt happened I would never had to call them. My Kenmore washing machine is so glorious. Its almost like a centerpiece you want to put in the middle of the living room for everyone to look at LOL. The thing is durable as say my clothes many many times. The thing is gorgeous almost like a Roman statue in my washroom.It was a little pricey but thats what you get when you buy top of the line and my mother always says you get what you pay for. Im not going to buy a cheap washing machine that Im going to have to keep fixing and fixing and fixing. I want something thats going to last me about 10 years before I have to put a new part in it and Ive got that now. Kenmore rocks.

Kenmore Laundry Center Model 417-61712510: Purchased this lemon last year with extended warranty. It has worked less than it has not worked and Ive had numerous technicians sent out and paid for an electrician to verify it is not my electrical. The machine starts and stops and locks my clothes inside in water and detergent. No amount of resetting breakers can get it to work, but I sense there is an internal reset because whenever the tech comes out he opens the metal flap to gain access and does something and then resets the breakers and it works again. It may work for one wash and then acts up and stops again. It will beep within 5 minutes of starting unit. This has been going on since 12/2016, approximately six months after purchase to this date of 8/4/2017. So here I am waiting two weeks for a repairman to come and unlock it while my clothes are in the machine. This has been a nightmare. The amount of service calls has been mind blowing. Always an explanation why it cannot be replaced... read your fine print. Ive spent more time this year doing my laundry at a laundromat than at home. This unit was purchased May 26, 2016 with extended warranty. Hope no one else will purchase this unit.

Its a neat idea but the washer simply smelled like mildew from day one. Everything we wash smells awful. We tried all the tricks we read about from online forums to no avail. We do not have any issues with its reliability. It worked very well from this standpoint. The appearance is sleek. We enjoyed the look. It fit with our lifestyle. Buttons are Laid out appropriately in an intuitive spot. We did not find it to be of high value to us. Because of the mildew smell. All of our clothes smelled permanently.

Washer does not rinse clothes completely. Takes 2 cycles to get the clothes completely rinsed and the soap out. Have adjusted the amount of soap used with the same results. Very disappointed with the Kenmore line.

The performance of this Kenmore washer was amazing. I never expect such a quiet washing machine. My family loves to use it and I have lately fun to use it. This Kenmore washer has the best performance I ever had in washing machines. I could not make a better decision on a washing machine like this device. The appearance of my Kenmore washer is just great, it fits perfect in my kitchen to all other appliance I have! The value of this Kenmore device is just fantastic! I got this appliance in Home Depot for a good sale price and on top a rebate. I was just happy with my purchase.

We purchased a Kenmore Elite washer 7-4-11. It was not much trouble in the first few months but I always had to make sure I did a large load or the machine would constantly be out of balance. Recently, I got a safety recall on the machine recently. I had the repairman out to install the update necessary. He has been out three times now and my problems have grown to the point of no return. I am totally unhappy with this machine and your update. As soon as I can get money saved up, it is out of my sight and being replaced with a different brand. You have got to be kidding if you think people are not going to drive you crazy with complaints. If you do a light load, it goes through 3 or 4 Rinse cycles and is constantly out of balance. It now takes 2 to 2 1/2 hours to do a small load of laundry and you call that efficient! I stay at home so I am able to stand over the stupid thing, but for working people, it will be a nightmare. My advice is to stay away from any Kenmore Elite. It sucks!

I am completely dissatisfied with this machine. It tangles and twists my clothes even on the delicate cycle. It does not clean our underwear. I have terrible yellow stains on my towels, and it does not clean the makeup off of my washcloths. I have to constantly reset it if washing towels or bed clothes. I have also noticed rust around the edges of my bleach fill. The softener does not empty correctly. I have no positive comments. This machine cost a small fortune, and I am ready to throw it down a hill! I had a Maytag prior to this machine that worked wonderfully. Piece of junk!!

Washes my clothes good and gets out tough stains my previous washers couldnt. I would recommend anyone looking for a new washer to buy this one. Havent had any problems with my washer breaking down so Id say its pretty reliable. The best washer Ive ever owned. Definitely worth the money. Its a great looking washer that is easy to use and is the basic size you would expect a washer to be. Its easy to empty and load. A great buy. For the price its definitely a good buy. Havent had any breakdowns or malfunctions. If youre in the market for a new washer I recommend buying this one.

Both worked very well for the first few years but the washer had problems toward the end in getting drained all the way. Had to replace some parts. Units worked good til the end and then they became so unreliable and slow that we ended up replacing them both and are happier now. Dont know why or how but they went bad. Appearance was fine. Dont expect that there is a whole lot of room there to change color and style is changing every day so stay informed and Im so sure you got it. Never got my moneys worth out of any washer. Dryers usually last but these seemed to run faster, harder and wear out quickly. I dont think I will buy again.

Purchased Kenmore Washer Model 2510 kept leaving soap in clothes. White marks and streaks in black or navy colors. I use 1/3 of the amount of HE soap recommended. Returned for a newer model after 4 repairmen came out. Now I have the next generation Model 25132. Still have soap in my clothes. The low water high-efficiency washers are AWFUL! The repairmen keep saying I am using too much soap or add water to washer or run it again. How can this be High Efficiency?

It cleans pass expectation, timing is good and no problems -I truly dont have any other comments to make concerning this washer, except that it works and Im glad I made a purchase for this machine, with so many other choices I could have made, glad I chose this one.

The Kenmore washer cleaned clothing properly and operated in a quieter tone than some other washers I have owned. I never had issues with colors bleeding and was very happy with the performance of the machine. The machine looked very sleek, too. I have had other washing machines that had issues with the beeping when the cycle was finished, but no issues with this one. And it also fit the color scheme of my laundry room as well as it fit perfectly under my laundry room counter. I paid what I expected for a washing machine of such quality.

The performance was top quality. I loved this machine. It lasted a long time without breaking. It was pretty good to me. I like this brand a lot. The reliability of this machine was excellent. I thought it was just as good as a general electric one. It was awesome for the record. I coud not have asked for more. The washer was a front loading type of washer. It was very strong in handling clothes to wash and it gave us years of great and quality service. What a great washing machine. The price that we paid for this washing machine was just right, it was worth the price that we paid for it.

It was a bit loud but nothing closing the door couldnt handle. I felt it was worth what I paid for it. This was a good device. I didnt have much trouble with it while it was in the house. It did a good job cleaning and needed little maintenance or repair work. I liked it although its a washer. Theyre only going to look so good so youre only going to care so much about it. I cant say I got it for appearances so it didnt really matter to me much on what it looked like. I would say this product was of good value to me for my needs. It lasted me well for a good few years and I found servicing was not frequent. I replaced it recently because I was redoing the kitchen.

I thought I would never have good smelling towels again and the washer did the trick. It can really hold a lot of clothing inside. Overall very happy with it. Its performance is long lasting. This washer is very reliable I can always count on it to wash all of my heavy loads of clothing exactly when I need it. I hardly ever have any technical issues with it. This washer has a generally attractive appearance. When I originally bought this washer it was on sale and I think I am satisfied with the value of it. The warranty is great and its worth the money to have fresh smelling clothes.

It has a very large tub that can handle large loads of clothes with no problem. It cleans consistently well and has a number of settings and load sizes. This washer is very reliable and has worked very well for us. It never has given us any problems. We have always bought Kenmore appliances and will continue to do so. The washer has very nice lines and knobs. It has sleek lines is easy to keep clean. A bloke the top control panel which is also very easy to keep clean. We bought this at a Sears sales event and found it to be the best value for this size of washer. We were very happy with the price and size.

The washer performs wonderfully, without having any kinds of malfunctions or leakage problems. It gets my clothes and towels clean in a short amount of time and is very quiet when it is doing its cycle. This washer is very reliable as far as being big enough to fit all of my needed items and the time it takes to thoroughly clean all of my clothes. It does everything that I need it to do in a short amount of time. The washer has a very beautiful appearance. It is very sleek and modern in its design, making it have a very nice appearance. The design is very clean looking and looks well in my modern house. This washer has a very good value for what I paid for it. Ive definitely gotten my moneys worth out of this washer. It works very efficiently and is the best washer Ive ever had.

I have a top load Kenmore elite washer. I bought it a couple of years ago replacing a 12 year old Whirlpool. It has been a real pain due to constant UE error (out of balance) about 50 to 70% of the time and usually when its with towels and jeans. I am very close to replacing (not Kenmore). I never had such a problem before.

This Dishwasher is the best we have used since we were married. It’s cleans perfect, we’ve had it for at least 10 years maybe longer. We have only had to call service once. Overall we love this Dishwasher and would purchase another to replace this one.

We purchased in Apr. 2013. Would not get item clean. Would not even get all items wet. Called for service. Waited 3 weeks to get a tech to the house. Sears shipped wrong control board. Tech put shipped board in washer. He said it would work until they sent the correct control board. Waited 2 months, no new board. Called Sears and they stated, The board was still on back order and did not know when it would be available. I asked for a replacement. Replacement was delivered. Machine did the same thing as the first machine. Call back and asked for a replacement with a different model. Replacement was $1500.00 cheaper than the original set. (Oh, btw it is now Oct. 2013) Sears will not refund us the difference. The problem was with your product. Shame on you Sears!!!!! I will never purchase from Sears again.

Kenmore 3.8 cu. ft. Top-Load High-Efficiency Washer - This washer is a piece of junk! 2 months after the warranty expires, the washers starts malfunctioning. When it completes a load of wash and the complete light is on and the lid is unlocked, it takes about 3 minutes before it jumps back to the sensing light and tries to start washing a new load all by itself! It seems to wash clothes and spin out fine. But if youre not paying attention its going to wash your clothes all over again! I will never ever buy a Kenmore washer again. Their quality and dependability has become non-existent.

They always work well and will run forever. Easy to get parts and to have repaired. Very economical to run and the clothes are clean. I would recommend them and would purchase another one in a heartbeat. Great appliance. I have owned 2 and they have always worked well and lasted a long time. My clothes are always clean and smell fresh. Local company, made in America. Sears carries parts and will service them.

I bought this Kenmore 800 series washer in December 2009. I have had repairmen here 3 times. The parts are made in Mexico and they are cheap plastic. Someone needs to do a printout of all these complaints and send them to their congressman to present to Consumer Affairs (Mr. Cordray) in Washington. Its bad enough that most of our manufacturing is outsourced to foreign countries, and it is time that someone starts demanding quality control. These CEOs make millions and it’s time to demand that we, the consumer, get a better quality product.

Dependable and seemed to hold up to anything that I washed in it from a light load of delicate to a large heavy load of winter snow boots and thick quilts. It also came in enough style and color that it would be impossible to say that someone could not find the right one for their home. So I guess that I would have to say that owning one has been a good experience for me.

My Kenmore has ran flawlessly for 10 years. Washes clothes clean each and every time. Little or no noises, or rocking. Has multiple setting for all types of clothes, including easy and delicate clothes.

I highly recommend this machine. Clean design and lines, will fit with any decor, is versatile. The white color cleans up nicely. I’ve had other washer that got dirty easily but not this baby. All clothes come out clean, enough settings to clean anything, easy to use and clean, very reliable and has a small electrical footprint. This machine is great for the money, doesnt have all the bells and whistles but it looks nice and has worked great from day one. Had washer over 2 years now and hasnt needed any servicing or maintenance. I think it would be hard to find a better machine.

Where can I sign up for a class action lawsuit. I dont want a $50 gift certificate, I want Kenmore to replace the washing machine (Series 700 washer) with something that works as advertised. Save me some water? How about cleaning my clothing properly??? Ive had this machine for 1 year and 10 months and I am FED UP with this. Kenmore fix your problem or LOSE A CUSTOMER FOREVER!!!

Bought a front loader and clothes smelled awful if not dried for 2 cycles. Also the front loaders get mildewy and are hard to keep clean. Once I realized to keep door open when not in use and to wash smaller loads it worked fine.

Kenmore Dishwasher machine does a great job. Comes from a well respected product line that has been around since my grandmother’s time and has never failed to perform its assigned with efficiency. This product line brings back fond recollections of the machines I used as a child. Handles reasonable loads, simple to use, load & clean. Reliable operation without an overabundance of functions that I neither use or need. Handles all the capacity I need in my day to day life with conservative use of water, soap and power. My main concern with any unit is that it easy to load, and handles the washing with as little trouble as possible. Easy to clean, with a spartan appearance that lends itself to my lifestyle and sensibilities. I especially like the clean lines and simple control features without an attempt at being overly stylish or trendy. Simplicity is my driving concern.

I purchased my Kenmore front load washer in 2009. All was good until I need it fixed! A technician came out and told me what was wrong...and charged me for that visit! Now a part is on back order and has been for OVER 2 MONTHS!!! This is ridiculous! Sears repair service sucks! I will never purchase another product from them and I will definitely pass my experience along so that others do the same!!!

The washer constantly smells like mildew, even after cleaning the gasket with bleach, and running an empty load with hot water and bleach. I have heard from several other friends that they have the same issue with this washer. My laundry room always smells like mildew, and clothes have to be removed immediately, or they will need to be re-washed.

Never fails me. No matter how dirty kids clothes are always come out clean. I never have to rewash anything. Sturdy. Will never use another type of washer. This washer is extremely dependable. Have never had any mechanical problems. Does not make a great deal of noise. Clothes always come out clean. Sleek appearance. Very modern looking. Very streamlined and never rusts and I have a damp basement. I have even had friends say what a nice appearance it makes. I love it. This washer was worth every penny I spent. It was very expensive but I am a perfectionist about my clothes and this washer answers every need I have. Has never disappointed me.

I think this is one of the best units I have ever had. It was very surprising how quick and efficient it is. I am very satisfied with all of the options that are available and how quickly it handles each cycle. This is the best washer that I have ever owned and does a great job on both my husbands filthy work clothes and my more delicate items. Definitely very reliable. I have yet to have to stop the load because of any problems. I can count on it getting my clothes clean the first time. It has never destroyed any of my delicate items that I wash. I have had no problems with it leaking or anything else going wrong.While it is a simple design, I think that the simple color fits quite well in my laundry room. It is a good looking washer, and the display is easy to read. I would say that this washer is an excellent value. It does a great job which means I dont find myself rewashing certain items. It seems to be very energy efficient which really helps out in the long run. It was definitely worth paying more for this washer than trying to save a few dollars getting a discount washer. I certainly feel like I have gotten my moneys worth.

We purchased the Kenmore water/energy efficient washer and we wash on either room temperature or warm water. Laundry most of the time come out not as expected with unclean chocolate stains as an example. Also, we were told by Kenmore that we have to run the express cycle (Very hot water) with vinegar in the detergent pocket to remove residual detergent and to improve the washer ability to clean even normal day to day stains. We are not happy with our purchase. Another aspect that made us unhappy is the annual PM included in a 5 year warranty (paid extra) that often the subcontractor is sending washer-untrained technicians to perform the PM.

Last a long time. Washes and rinses acceptable. Has different water levels. Different wash cycles. Fits in a small area. Looks good. Best washer I have ever used. Reliable, runs forever. I have had mine for over 20 years and it has not broken down even one time. Easy to set up, powerful. Appearance was a basic white, top loader, slot for soap in two places, easy to move if needed, not too big so it does not take up too much space. Nice. Considering how long I have been using the washer I say it was a great bargain, thought it was too pricey at first but when you are still using 20 years later it was a steal.

My Sears Kenmore Elite washer will not get out stains. To be fair the unit is out of warranty but is only a year and a half old. Because of health issues, I didnt start getting clothes dirty until this spring. It will not remove simple stains like dirt and when I started started to smell some clothes, they didnt smell clean coming right out of the machine. For example my socks smelled as bad coming out of the wash as they did going in. I would think it would be unsanitary to wear clothes that are not clean. When I purchased the the set online in September 2012, they were giving it a 5 star rating. I looked at past models and they only showed 3 stars but this was a new model and I assumed improvements had been made. Looking online today, Consumer Reports gives it a 53 rating out of 100 and others rate it 3.2 out of 10 and even Sears rates it low and the biggest complaint was that it didnt get out stains or get clothes clean in general. I first called the 800 number Customer Service number in the book and the person that I spoke too suggested that I try to purchase an extended warranty then break the machine on purpose and see if they replace it. As bad as this sounds I do think she was trying to help knowing they would not do anything with it being out of warranty. Then I called Sears the first thing that they said is that is was a LG machine, and the second thing was that it was out of warranty and they would do nothing to help me. I then called customer service who said the same until I told them I would cancel my Sears Card. At that point, I was transferred to Customer Retention who eventually decided to send a technician to my house and some negotiation waved the service charge. I did ask him to speak with the service technician on the phone before he made the appointment because I thought he would be wasting him time after reading all the online information that says it just doesnt clean. The conversation didnt happen and the next morning about 8:45, the service technician called and asked me what was wrong with the washer. I told him it didnt get clothes clean. Then he started to say that I needed special laundry soap and that I shouldnt use fabric softener. Anyhow he declined to come because like me, I thought the machine was working as designed but wouldnt get all clothes clean. He eventually told me thank and added it was because the washer didnt use enough water to clean clothes. I called Sears later and told them what had happened and they would not help me and that case # ** would be closed. I did at that point close my Sears account. I did call Sears again to get an address to send information from Small Claims Court. I then decided to send an email to LG to see if they might help since it is manufactured by them and it is their design. The very first thing they said was that it was a Kenmore and that it was a Sears. I sent them back a reply asking them several questions including who did the design, hold the pattern, and the drawings. I didnt receive a response. I did call an 800 number and talk to someone who did give me an address so that the court could get them information. So I am looking into taking both companies to Small Claims Court together so that a Judge may decide who should lose $1029 for a product that doesnt clean.

Its been a great machine. My family has used these products for generations. I love the ease of using the washer. I plan on buying my kids the same brand when they get homes of their own.

I love my washing machine, it has been very dependable. In the future I probably would not buy a front loader again because of having to leave it open always. Sadly to say I do not even know if a person is still able to purchase a Kenmore machine.

Our machine is an older model, but it handles everything I pack it with! When its time to replace it, I will definitely consider the company. My clothing comes out clean, and the songs are straightforward.

Affordability, simplicity, and maintenance, all add to the experience of ownership. Works great. Really gets clothes clean. Energy efficient and durable, all the things I expect in such a important home essential.

It is good enough. Kenmores they are like Maytag washers. They last forever. It is a good washer for me. It is a very reliable washer and it does the job. Could be a little bigger and I increased my family recently and with an increase has more clothes to wash. It is just like any washer, white and functional cycles that I needed a degree to learn how to work. It is a good washer and I am glad I got it and it should be very good to me. Well when I bought my washer it was on sale and it was a good deal at the time. I paid the right price.

I have had this washer fixed twice. It doesn’t clean as well. I get frustrated...no more insurance for machine. Will check which wash is better next time. I bought the soap which is recommended for the washer and still get frustrated.

I love my Kenmore washer but after 5 years it Started to have problems so I was thinking of getting another kenmore washer. My mother had one and she loved it so that’s where I got my idea of getting mine.

My top load Kenmore Elite Washing machine is 4 years old and has been rusting for the last 2 years. I finally decided to check into replacing the top and I found out it will cost over $350. This is absolutely ridiculous!! In 40 years I have NEVER had a washing machine rust! I will never buy a Kenmore product again!

It is a very good brand and I personally love it. It helps me when I need washing my clothes and its really fast. I would recommend this to anyone.

Just stops working in middle of cycle. Does not get my clothes clean at all. And wont rinse or spin. Worst washer Ive ever had. Dont buy it.

First experience at the newest kind of front load washer. Couldnt believe it was so quiet. However, it took me a while to accept the fact that I saw no water or sloshing in the window of the machine. Somehow it gets the clothes clean but it is still magic as to how.

This performance of the washer was great. It was the size of an apartment washer and I loved it and it got the clothes really clean and it was great. This model was very reliable and I would recommend this washer to anyone. It worked really well. People who live in an apartment would do very well with this model. The appearance of this model was just the right size for what I needed it for. People who want to buy, this is really a good buy and it will work for everyone. The value of this product is awesome and I think it had a very good value for me. I think that people will feel the same way if they want to buy this model.

Absolutely the worst customer service experience in my 66 years on this earth. Bought a new Kenmore washer which arrived damaged. Was told we had to report damage in 3 days and they would not do anything. Turned on the machine and it sounded like metal on metal grinding. Called Sears again and they sent out the repairman who says the bottom of the machine is crushed and missing a suspension rod and not worth repairing. Just trying to get service from Sears has been such a nightmare. I cannot imagine trying to get a replacement washing machine. What a goat rope this has been. I expect we will be buying a new washing machine and I guarantee you it will not be a Kenmore!!! WORST SERVICE EVER!!!

Cleaned clothes well, was not loud and did not rattle. It has several options for washing and they all worked well. The spin cycle was quiet, and the machine did not move around. The machine was reliable and had no problems with starting or stopping. There was never any water left in machine and clothes were never torn. The machine was white and easy to clean. No special cleaning agents were needed. The color never faded or discolored, and it did not show signs of any rust. When compared to other machines with the same features it was more of a great value at a good price. The load capacity was even larger than some of the others at a greater price.

The Kenmore Washer Elite Oasis works fine till the ending number 6 rinse. Last couple of years, the problems are way too many with the machine. It cost good money. Please help me!

I have owned my front loader for 18 years and it’s still running strong, I have never had an issue with it and will definitely buy this brand again. It is very user friendly and I can only imagine how the new models are.

It would take the dirtiest of clothes and get them cleaner than expected. It was very quiet, fast and reliable. I would recommend this to anyone. Worked great and never had issues. I was comforted by the fact it came with a 1 year warranty and never needed to use it. Very clean and modern looking machine. It doesnt look tacky but looks nice enough to want to show it off. Many people have commented on how nice it looks. The price for what you get is steep. There are a lot of other models that will work just as well for a better price but they dont have the Kenmore name.

Kenmore does NOT participate to monitor feedback on ConsumerAffairs and resolve your issues. Sears should monitor feedback on ConsumerAffairs. My 2 year old top washer sounds like a jet engine on spin cycle and is tearing small holes in my t-shirts. Now it stopped pumping water out of the drain cycle. I am done with Sears and their crappy quality. I was brought up on Sears. No wonder they are fighting for survival. Selling junk to cut corners for profit will eventually catch up with them.

The Kenmore washer gave me great, dependable service for the 8 years I owned it. We were a family with 3 children so it definitely got a good workout thru those years. This brand has been recommended in our extended family for many years. The appliances are very durable and reliable, providing excellent service for a very active family! We have found that Kenmore appliances are also very reasonably priced for the quality and service that they provide.

Kenmore Elite Oasis washer model 11028032701 is leaking from the bottom and making noise. It also has oil or grease coming out from the bottom. Never buy this washer. My mother and I both bought the washer from Sears and they broke after one year and four days. They refused to fix or replace because its four days over warranty. Then mothers washer broke the same way as mine, oil leak and water at bottom two weeks after mine. Sears was totally not helpful. She paid for a repairman and had it fixed. Then a week later, it was leaking water from bottom again. Im not pleased at all.

We have a Kenmore Series 600 Auto Load Sensing High Efficiency (HE) Low water washer which I am really not liking. It doesnt have a bar up the middle to move the clothes around and the water does not cover and soak the clothes. So there are only parts of the clothes that are getting washed. We have to rewash our clothes 3 and 4 different times to get them fully clean. I am NOT A FAN of HE Washers. I like Traditional ones better where the water flows and I can push the clothes down in the water....the middle agitator has always worked well. Why change something that works well all b/c it uses more water? More water, middle agitator bar, less secrecy is what I like.

It is the Series 500 High Efficiency model. I bought it 3 years ago. It took forever to run a load. Shook during the spin cycle. Call to have it repaired and the service man said that is just how it operates. It shook so badly that the spin cycle completely stopped working. I had to buy a replacement 2 months ago.

I did a lot of research and found that Kenmore was a trusted brand. My husband is very particular about anything we buy and this was no different. It took what seems like forever to buy one but I am glad we took our time. It had a very powerful wash cycle and didnt leave spots on my glassware. It washes very quick and is careful not to harm any of my delicates or top rack only items. Although I wish I had chosen a different color. Also, it could be a little bit quieter but all in all it is almost perfect.

Fix the washer over 20 times since purchase in 08. Replacing mother board again in 6 months. Repair teaches different things then the sells guys. I use to rave about Kenmore. Not anymore. I could have bought a new washer every year for the amount of money I have used to repair washers in the past 10 years. All Kenmores with Sears repair men.

New owner of a Kenmore High Efficiency Top-Loading Washer. Little different than conventional washers so following instructions as always, seems very important. Our issue is that our clothes come out VERY wrinkled. This possibly wouldnt be a problem but my wife hangs our clothes outside on a clothesline. Therefore she has to iron everything. Being under the 30-day warranty a service tech is coming out to determine whether there is a problem with the washer or a correction can be made in doing our laundry which we hope happens. At this point, Im not entirely certain I want a tech determining what course of action needs to be taken. Sticking with the washer or replacing it which is a warranty option.Updated on 03/06/2015Called Sears within 30 days of purchase to address extremely wrinkled clothing and annoyingly loud machine. Part was ordered and replaced but the tech wasnt interested in seeing a video of our machine bouncing in place even though he checked it for balance. Distressing seeing as how the tech has the authority on the next steps taken as to replacing this brand new machine.This is a purchase I deeply regret!

During the time we used this washer, I was completely happy with its performance. It got my clothes clean and I had no issues whatsoever. It didnt have all the bells and whistles that todays washers have, but I feel like they werent necessary. The washer was reliable and got the job done! Our old washer lasted for years. I dont remember ever having to call the repairman. I never had a minutes stress at having to find somewhere else to wash my clothes. Id put in the clothes, detergent, press the buttons and the washer did its job! The washer had a quality look to it. It was simple, without a lot of dashboard buttons, and I liked the clean, white finish and simplicity of the machine. I definitely was proud to own this washer. The Kenmore washer we owned was a great value for the purchase price. It wasnt a high end purchase, but suited to our budget, and because of the way it performed, I would not have needed to spend any extra money to get what I wanted.

I have always had a Kenmore washer. They are very reliable & durable. Service from Sears is also reliable plus trustworthy. Prices are good, compared to Maytag or GE. I prefer Kenmore over all other brands. Kenmore offers top loading, front loading & compact units for smaller spaces. Sears stores are available in many areas, that carry Kenmore products.

Its good, it gets the job done. My clothes fresh and clean. Never had any technical problems with it or anything like that. Very good. I would recommend it personally to others. It works great. Its appearance is good, I like it. The value is perfectly fine, the cost was reasonable.

I signed up for ConsumerAffairs to be able to ventilate my frustration about this washing machine. There is nothing wrong with the mechanics of this machine. It turns the front loading drum, like it should, adds water, removes water, etc. But the program-cycles it offers make the whole washing affair completely idiotic. All the cycles are way too short for good cleaning. (None takes longer than 1/2 hour.) Also, there is no cycle without a final spin option. I come from Europe where eco machines turn slow and long, in order to enable good soaking and cleaning. I have to add programs cycles in order to get anything clean with this machine. Meanwhile I cannot put off the spin session, so I end up using a lot of energy to get my wash done with this machine (while ruining my clothes with the spinning). My husband ordered this machine after thoroughly reading consumers reports. Makes no sense to me.

Bought a Kenmore washer in 2017. Installed by Sears staff. Washer made noise and bounced around since day 1. Called Sears service several times and the repair person came out and looked at it and said the problem was probably the floor so on both occasions they put pads under the feet of the washer. Last time I provided the pads as the man did not have any so he said maybe a jar gripper would do. So he inserted them under the washer. Never did he use a leveler to see if the washer was level or check anything inside the washer. So it seemed the pads made a little difference but the shaking and moving continued but not as bad. And I got used to the noise. But now here in 2019 it started getting more noisy and continued to shake and move more. Since I had a family member ill and then died I had no time in the beginning of the year to have someone come out. So I called them last week and they said they would charge me so much. I then decided to call another company (which I should have done before). The repair person came out and checked everything and said all 3 shocks were blown and leaking oil and that the washer was not level and was off by quite a bit. This was all from the washer not being installed correctly and off level. When I called Sears re this they said my warranty is expired and that I would have to pay for them to send a repair person to check it. They were not helpful in any way. I am a senior citizen and do not have the $700 + to repair this washer. Especially since the problem is because of faulty installation. Is there no justice anymore. Stay away from Sears and Kenmore and LG who apparently made this washer for Sears!!!

The washer works very well. Its energy efficient & gets your clothes very clean. Uses less water but still gives you a good clean. It is very quiet as well which I like. It is not reliable. I have had to have multiple repairs in the 2 1/2 years that I had it. The repairs took multiple services to even find the problem. I also had to get the panel repaired because of a shortage. It look very cute. It has a glass window so it look very modern and new age. It has a large look but it fits well in my wash room. I like the white finish on it. The value of the washer is good as long as I can get it to work. I had a warranty so it paid for the repairs but the quality is not very dependable so it takes the value down.

I put a twin sized comforter in the Kenmore Elite Series 700 washer by itself because it had throw up on it. I washed it under the bulky/bedding option and selected all of the options it would allow me to (prewash, fabric softener, rinse twice, and stain boost- I would have selected deep fill as well but it wont allow you to when you are running the bulky/bedding setting) and it still had throw up caked up on it when I took it out!!! ALL OF MY CLOTHES HAVE STAINS ON THEM NOW BECAUSE THIS WASHER DOES NOT WASH! I talked to the people at SEARS about this and they agreed that something must be wrong with it since it came out with throw up still on it and told me to have a service guy come look at it. So I did and the guy told me himself that he agrees that the top load agitator-less washers dont clean worth crap. He said this model here is not made for washing blankets or comforters or rugs or pillows- its just not made for that- it wont get them clean so I asked him if it says that it doesnt wash blankets (...etc.) anywhere in the description of the product because had it said that we would not have bought it (for 650$!) because we wash a lot of those things and need them to actually get clean!!! And you know what he had the audacity to say to me?!? He said well ya- just like it doesnt specifically say that you cant wash concrete blocks in it neither. So I said ok but who would even try to wash concrete blocks? He then said its just a common sense thing. CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?!? Instead of admitting that they have been selling a less than perfect appliance and showing some integrity by making things right, they are getting over on us all and will Im sure go out of business soon here. I will be suing.

I was impressed with how clean my clothes were with my new washer. My old one, sometimes the detergent wouldnt release so my clothes would still be dirty when I took them out. It can fit pretty large loads even a lot of towels. I also wash my comforter in there when Im too lazy to go to the cleaners. And Im usually pretty happy with how it comes out. When I bought it I was satisfied with the appearance but then shortly after they made more washers with a side opening door and I started to realize that that would make things a lot easier and thats what I will get for my next one.

It cleans very good. Easy to work. Buttons are easy to press and Works really well. Very pleased. I have not had a problem. I wash clothes at least 3 times a week cause I have a newborn. Washes really good. Its small and fits right in the corner of the basement. I really like this model. Its lightweight. I can move it if I need to. I got this on sale but would of paid full price. Was not expensive at all. And it was worth every penny I paid for it. I really recommend this one.

Worked well enough for the price. Both were basic models with no bells nor whistles and they performed their jobs well. Neither were energy efficient but lasted many years and showed no sign of breaking down. They performed their jobs well. Got clothes clean and dry. Couldnt ask for much else considering the price.

The front load washing machine is hard to keep clean. Lint and other debris gets trapped in the door seal and smells. Even though the door is wiped every time and the magnet is used (so the door doesn’t close fully) it still stinks. My towels always smell sour once they get wet again. I don’t think this is a Kenmore issue. I think it’s front loaders in general. My next washer will not be a front loader.

Gets extremely dirty clothes clean in one wash. Low energy so my utility bills arent high. Great look, and easy to use buttons. Not extremely loud like my previous washer. Definitely big enough to fit all my standard washes. Sometimes my king size comforter can feel like a tight squeeze and the wash isnt the absolute best but it definitely works. Definitely looks great. People always notice it when they see my laundry room. Definitely a nice looking unit not a dated look of some washers. For the cost with the energy costs, its look, and how good the washes are this washer is definitely worth the buy. For its price its hard to beat the combination of looks and features.

I called about my Kenmore Elite HE5t Steam Washer. It keeps going into a SUD, then within a few minutes it goes into an F35 error. I talked with Sears and they told me the only thing they could do is send a repairman to my house to look at it. The cost is $129 plus the part. The part is a water level switch, it costs $85 dollars. It was on back order at the time I looked it up and I will have to wait one week for the part. When it came in, they then told me to call Whirpool. I did, they reconnected me to Sears. It was no surprise since it is an ongoing problem with this model and I have seen it on a few websites already, including this one. They need to recall this product.

Worked fine for years until the clothes started getting stuck in the rotating drum and ripped and stained the clothes. It worked good and we gave it away because we wanted a more modern unit. It was a simple control system, not fancy or high tech, Just had like 4 settings and was easy to use. It was just plain white in color and a standard appearance. It was a really good value for all the years we had it. It only need one or two minor repairs for a broken belt and something else. Otherwise the money spent on it gave me good value for the dollar.

It cleans my clothes amazingly and never makes weird noises. I never had to have it repaired.. As long as this washer is working it will be the one I have and I will always use Kenmore. Theyre absolutely fantastic. Its a nice style washer, very convenient and clean and proper looking. I value this washer so much. Its such a amazing piece of machinery. Hands down the best washer I could ask for.

Do not purchase this Kenmore Elite washer. The washer constantly stops due to uneven loads. Customer service is worse than the washer. Saw several reviews where its obviously a problem and have even had recalls on several models, but more concerned about selling home warranty than fixing the problem. Dryer is great though.

This is the worst washer I have ever owned, it is always going unlevel. I have had it four or five years and the tub has already been replaced once. I dont think any of the new washers with this type of tub and ball as a ringer are any count. They need to go back to the old washers.

The washer looks like a typical model: white, top-loading, knobs located on the top panel. Nothing really special overall in the design aspect. But for what I need the washer to do, it works very well. Up to this point, I havent had to have any maintenance on the washer, even after 5 years of use. For people who dont need anything fancy, this model will be a great choice. I can fill quite a large load of laundry and not have any issues with agitation or something not coming out clean. I consistently wash large items, such as towels and sheets, and every item comes out clean. Washer times are fairly short compared to other washers Ive had in the past and the machine is fairly quiet overall when Im on the same floor. But when Im downstairs I can sometimes hear it.

I have had bad experiences with Whirlpool washers in the past. Less than five years ago, we decided to purchase a new washer since our two-year old Whirlpool washer was giving us endless problems. We purchased a Kenmore Elite from Sears. We did not know that our washer was actually a Whirlpool washer. We have started with the same problems with this washer as we did with our Whirlpool washer. I just learned that our machine was actually manufactured by Whirlpool. I was told by Kenmore that other Kenmore Elite washing machines were recalled with the same problem, but does not include my model.I was transferred to so many different places, including Maytag (why Maytag?) to try to resolve my problem. If my machine is having the same problem as those other models that were recalled, there is a great chance that mine should be included in the recall. I never got to speak to the right department. The repair is costing me half of what I would have to pay for a new one. Now, I dont know where to go to get a reliable washing machine. I thought that paying a descent amount was going to give me a descent working machine. I believe that disclosing the manufacturer on appliances should be required because not everything that shines is gold. A reliable brand on the outside is not always what you get on the inside!

It works great, dont make loud noise. It fits very well into the kitchen and beeps when it stops. When I first saw it I knew it would be a good washer for me. Doesnt have to pack a lot of clothes in the wash to wash my clothes. I can even put 3 or 4 comforter in the washer and clean my clothes. I can use gain washing machine and bounce to dry my clothes and leave a great smell in the clothes. I set up the dial according to the load of clothes that Im going to wash. Good for washing my clothes and leave the clothes clean and dont have to worry about washing. I wash about 7 to 8 load a week.

This is the best washer ever. It runs all day and night without an issue. Even heavy loads seems to get really clean. Dirt comes out and everything is shiny and white. The washer is very reliable and has lasted a long time for me and my family. I suggest anyone who wants this washer to buy one. The gears are really nice. I wish there were other models which were not so white and shiny because it makes everything else look dirty. Please make a duet colored washer. Id pay a little over $100 for this washer again if I wasnt flat broke.

I really like the Kenmore washer that I purchased several years ago. We wash a couple of loads a day and it has given me no problems. I will recommend Kenmore to anyone. Kenmore washers are the only brand that will be in my home. My Kenmore washer is not much to look at. It is the old style top open style. But it works great and still looks great. Even though its not one of those fancy front open models. The value of my Kenmore washer is great. If you take the ten years that Ive owned it and divide it by the six hundred dollars I paid for it, it is only about $55.00 a year.

We bought 2 Kenmore Stacked Washer/Dryer units (Gas) for our newly remodeled laundry room 3 1/2 years ago. One washer unit needed to be repaired after 2 years and now has broken down completely. The other washer unit is now having issues and the repair company told us it would be too expensive to repair and we’d be better off buying a new unit. So after 3 1/2 short years, we are forced to buy 2 new units!! We definitely will not be buying Kenmore but are going to try Whirlpool brand and pay $195 extra for the five year extended warranty since it seems things aren’t made to last anymore!! I will never buy Kenmore again!!

The Kenmore washer had very good reviews and a 90 percent approval rating. I ordered it online and received free shipping and free installation. This was also at a deep discount with me only paying $350 for it and in the whole time I have had I can see why it received such good reviews. I like that it has something of a touchscreen on it. There are about a dozen different wash cycles to choose from like whites, colors, heavy, delicate and normal. There are also an option to have it chime and a fabric softener button and a dispenser for bleach. However, the tub is not very secure in the washer or at least it seems so. You can reach in and grab on to the edge of the tub and move and shake it around. It is also very deep and it is hard to reach all the clothes since I am so short.

My clothes come out clean and the stains are removed. Its easy to use and is fairly quiet. The knobs come off on the unit and sometimes I need to use pliers to turn the handle. Im pleased with how reliable it is. It just happened to be a problem with the handles and knobs that fall off. Its not overused as there are only two people in this house. Its very stylish as washers go. Equally distributed buttons and knobby. Its easy to keep clean and is appealing. Its very quiet and seems to make very little movement.The value of a washing machine is the way it cleans the clothing. It seems that this units such as this have a great value because they seem to work very well.
