Time to replace our 16 yr old washer and dryer. So many bad reviews out there... We felt we had to choose the lesser of the evils because there was no overall good washer/dryer out there! We found a good deal on the Kenmore Elite top load washer model 31512 and the matching dryer model 61512. I expected problems to arise from all the complaints about electronics and washer stopping.... Been using it for 2 months now and I have to say I am pleasantly surprised! The errors that did occur were normal occurring errors w/ any washer. Got excited about the extra large tub and I loaded it up! (We are a family of 6!) Of course it didnt clean well. (Had to try it anyways! lol!) The 2 times it shut off was due to imbalance. My old washer would have shut off too. It appears that if you keep opening and shutting the lid while its filling up it will add more water too. Wanted to keep peeking inside and was alarmed at all the water usage! Then I figured out it was every time I opened the door it would add more water. My FAVORITE is the quick wash cycle!! Not only does the larger tub allow me to do more laundry, but I can pick Quick cycle and itll be done in 35 minutes not an hour!! Whoooo Hoooo!! (Of course real dirty stuff I stay on the normal cycle.) The dryer is great. Because the washer spins the heck out of the clothes, the dryer doesnt take as long to dry. Also, lots of complaints about it not cleaning..... I honestly think it may be an overloading issue. You cant stuff it. 3/4 the way up the wall is enough to load it and if you want to add more water, you just push a button. I really do like this so far. Oh....if you are wanting the dryer rack to go inside the dryer for shoes and sweaters I have battled the giant on this for you... They sent me the wrong rack twice and insisted that it was the right one. I had to send photos to the consumer affairs dept and such to prove the rack they were sending was wrong! Come to find out the warehouse was pulling the incorrect rack because the manufacturer was out of the correct one. One size does not fit all! This has been going on over a month to get the correct rack. Make sure you get rack 3751EL1001B. It is NOT symmetrical like the 3750 version. Hope this helps some of you out there and you are pleased with it like I am. :)

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...

I hate my Sears Kenmore Elite Washer and Dryer.The washer constantly goes off balance - even with small loads of two pairs of jeans and a polo shirt. I spread the clothes out at the beginning of a wash. On average, I have to stop the washer 2-3 times per load as it throws an error code because it is off balance. It finally broke down and decided to call Sears to schedule an appointment to have it looked at and repair it. The dryer also will not stop even if the clothes are brittle dry as it can only be set at 40 minutes. The representative asked if I also wanted that looked at. Obviously, I said, Yes. The appointment I maid was to be this Monday at 1pm - 5pm. I checked my email and one is at 8am - 12pm and the other is 1pm - 5pm. I am not sitting around all day waiting on Sears! I called to have both fixed between 1pm - 5pm. The representative said they cannot move the one to the afternoon. I asked for a supervisor but never got one even after calling back and waiting for more than 10 minutes listening to music.Boy wish I was strong enough to haul these back to Sears and leave them at their store. I only selected 1 star because there was no lesser option.

Had them for 18 to 20 years and only 1 minor problem between both washer and dryer. I do 4 to 5 loads a week. The washer has no surface rust even though it is located in a somewhat, sometimes damp basement.

It gets my familys clothes clean whether it is a large or small load. I have had a family of six and now there are just two of us left at home. It just keeps working. This washing machine has been working for over ten years with no service problems. I can fit larger items like blankets in it or do my finest washable on the hand washing cycle. It still looks great! In fact, it is older than my dryer but it looks better because the paint has lasted well and it still looks relatively modern considering it was bought before the famous front-load look came into style. This purchase has been well worth it. Any washing machine that has done the amount of laundry I have done that has lasted over ten years is worth its weight in gold.

Always been a fan of this brand washer/dryer combination. My parents and grandparents supported this brand. The load capacity of the washer is substantial, and the dryer holds ample sizes of laundry. Each has a very low repair cycle, and noise level is minimal. As previously stated, reliability and low repair needs is a huge plus for these machines. Drying time is seemingly shorter to achieve maximum results. These products are very smartly designed and look good in any laundry room facility. Various color schema is available and appealing. Easy access and loading qualities are helpful to all using the machines. These machines are a great economic deal. The value certainly matches any reasonable price accorded. We have always found these products comparable if not less expensive than rival brands.

It dries my clothes nicely and has the room I need to fit everything I need in it. Quick dry time also and leaves clothes static and wrinkle free. The dryer has been a long lasting appliance and I havent ever had any problems using it. It leaves my clothes dry and wrinkle free without all the static involved also. The dryer is nice and has a great appearance and overall I like to show it off to guests and family when they come over. It has clean fresh appearance. Overall the value is great and well worth what you pay for. I would recommend the product for the money you pay. It performs at a high level and I like that a lot.

I have an old model but it still work and does the job, it is still up to date modern, performs as it did the day I bought it. When I purchased it the products only came in white. I own washer and dryer top and bottom load and I own or purchased a freezer for the garage. Didnt need anything high fashion. Both product was purchase from Sears, a company that I have trusted for years.

The washer worked for a good 7 years then just started having little glitches during the wash cycle. We were offered a brand new set for free from a family member so thats the main reason we got rid of our Kenmore washer and dryer.

This dryer always returns clothes fully dry as long as you dont overfill it. Lighter settings are excellent for more delicate clothes and all of my elastic clothes have been fine on the lowest setting. I can usually fit everything I need in one load. Works well for single large items like comforters in a pinch (when I cant get to a laundromat). Easier if you dont do a load of all bulky items. It doesnt take up too much space in my garage and its appearance is fine. Plain white isnt my preference but this was on sale, and its decent-looking as far as basic dryers come. I got this item on sale so Id say the value is very good for the price I got it at. Dries my clothes fine. Doesnt ruin anything as long as you pick the right level before running it.

It works great and efficiently. Have had no problems. Does what it should do and runs well. It also lasted a really long time. It can hold a lot of clothes. It is able to handle large clothing loads and it has lasted many years. It works well and runs as promised. No complaints, has not given me any trouble. Its a simple appearance. Nothing special just white and what you would expect a typical standard machine to look like. It wont impress you but it does the job. It was priced reasonably. You can get washer and dryers for less expensive but you may be compromising the quality of the machine. Sometimes it pays more to spend a little extra and get something that will last.

I love this washer and dryer, its always dependable and reliable for the toughest loads. Makes my laundry smell clean and look even cleaner. Not only that, I cannot believe how quickly it gets everything done. Its always reliable, even when the tags say to hand wash or even dry clean it has never ruined my clothes. I even love my dryer be cause it has never shrunk my clothing before. I think it looks so nice that I keep it as clean as the day that I purchased it from the stores. This was more than a great buy. I am so pleased that I chose this brand of washer and dryer instead of the other washer and dryer that I was considering buying.

This is a great dryer that has outlasted every one that I have seen. Good quality is more expensive but worth it. This has never failed to do its job every time... Its high quality. It always gets hot quick and dries my clothes quickly. And it will cool down when it detects the clothes are dry. A signal will let you know its done also. I can always count on it to work right. I had a white one... It went well with everything I had. Regardless of the color, it did the job well. I wouldnt care what color it was if it was by the same brand. Like I said it was a little more expensive than the others but worth it. You get what you pay for... Thats the truth. This was a good value for the good job it does.

Looked nice, thought it would be good being it was a Kenmore. Bought it about one year ago. This is the very worst washer and dryer I have ever had. I will not buy another one. Kenmores in the past were the best. I am buying another one, it will not be a Kenmore. Tried to give it back and a refund, Sears told me I was too late. Not a happy person with this washer and dryer at all... I will be looking for a old fashion washer and dryer, not a sincer kind. One that I can control the level of water, control my options of heat on my dryer. Washer and dryer that is easy to understand instructions. A washer that I dont have to buy a washer cleaner so my clothes dont stink, and so many more not good things... Deal breaker would be a washer and dryer like I have now. One that doesnt twist everything into a knot. One that gets clothes clean. One that I can control whenever I want to repeat a function and more...

The washer and dryer are a matching set green in color. Theyre working perfectly and they do as they are expected to do. Also, the wash loads are perfect for my amount of laundry and it doesnt take too long to wash or dry. I havent had to have any service to them at all and havent had any problems. I wash and dry 3 or more loads a week for over 6 1/2 years since I purchased them used and for $150 it was a very well investment.

This dryer is spacious and keeps the clothes wrinkle-free. There is an alarm that sounds when the load is dry. It runs quietly and efficiently. Its very reliable. This dryer has been a real workhorse, drying queen-sized comforters, large loads of bath towels and full loads of hockey equipment. Yet it still turns out a small load of delicates as fresh and wrinkle-free. It is pretty standard as far as appearances go. Its the typical white color and has just the right amount of knobs needed to give load options. This has been a great deal for the money. We have gotten a lot of use of this for years now and we plan to have many more years of service yet to go.

The dryer performed as expected, and generally got all of the clothes dry. Occasionally if there was more than a standard load or a heavy item, I had to put some things back for 10 or 15 minutes. I bought scratch and dent at an outlet, but it didnt affect performance and really looked good too as the dents werent readily visible. I was happy with the purchase. Most of the time, it fit everything I needed it to. I found it to be very reliable. I never had any problems with it as there were no maintenance issues. I would recommend it to others. Considering it was scratch and dent, it looked very good and would have looked good if bought at the regular store too. The dents were located where you wouldnt notice them unless you were specifically looking for them. It had the appearance of a normal dryer. While it didnt have all the bells and whistles, I felt that its performance was at least as good as the higher end machines. It was a great value as it got the clothes dry, but didnt cost an arm and a leg.

I had a Kenmore washer and dryer that worked great. They washed and dried my clothes fast. They never left a stingy odor in the clothes. They were easy to use and they lasted a very long time. We are a family of 6 so there is always clothes to wash. We wash every other day. There is uniforms and regular clothes, my husbands worked clothes and every time we washed we had the same great results - clean clothes with a fresh scent. This brand is innovative, smart, energy efficient. Its a brand that I have recommended to my family and they got it and liked it also.

I owned a Kenmore washer and dryer 20 years ago. They were adequate. I really dont remember any specifics although I dont think we had any major problems with them. There is nothing else I can tell you.

Good size and works great. Have not had any issues yet except the one time a shirt got caught in the door. It ruined it when it started spinning. Its been very reliable so far. I think we bought the warranty but no need to use it yet for either washer or dryer. It looks like all the other front load machines. Looks nice. No issues. Can stack to save space. Ours is white and it looks very good. I dont remember the exact price but I think it was fairly reasonable to buy. We didnt buy the most expensive machine but it does everything that we need.

I have owned my washer and dryer set for 3 years now and love it. My parents have owned Kenmore products since I can remember. When me and my husband bought our first home, of course all our appliances had to be Kenmore. My parents trust Kenmore and so do I.

It was the first washer I bought and used it for many years. In the market to buy another one. Great product. Bought a different brand that didnt hold up as well. Definitely prefer the Kenmore brand to the last washer I had. My Kenmore dryer is very old but it still works. May have to get a set.

Upon installation by the delivery crew this dryer (Kenmore 67132 Electric) gave them a PF error message and would not start. They replaced the power cord and said it was fine. Ten minutes after they left it failed to start again and gave us the PF error. Sears replaced the dryer with a new one and after a few weeks it started giving us the PF error again leaving us with an unusable dryer. We also ordered the Kenmore washer 26132 4.8 cu. ft top loader and were dissatisfied with that as well. It look a very long time for a cycle to complete and most times our clothes ended up still dirty, still stinky, some areas were not even wet and some clothes had a white residue on them. Both appliances were returned.

The deliverymen/installers didnt know how to vent the dryer with equipment I was required to purchase. My son actually vented the dryer with equipment I had on hand. To be fair, when I complained, they offered to buy back the equipment from me.

My Kenmore fridge did everything it was made to do, awesome performance, it kept things good and cold. I would recommend to anyone. Size of my Kenmore was perfect for my house, it fit right in place. It was not too wide, or too tall. It was just right for what I needed. Size is everything when purchasing a Kenmore refrigerator. Appearance is everything, I had a white one. Love Kenmore products because they last a long time. Like the dryers do too. The costs is very satisfying for the Kenmore refrigerator, considering I bought mine about 10 years ago, costs is very important also but theyre well worth the money you pay for them.

I love my Kenmore dryer and washer and I have not had any major issues such as repair issues. Its one of the best things Ive ever used as a matter of fact. It is very reliable and does a great job. Its exterior is simply nothing fancy. It fits in place without needing any extra space and once you get it running it does the washing and drying without a hitch and it does not need a whole lot of maintenance. I like it a lot. You will get your moneys worth for what you pay for and it works, no gimmicks. Everything is absolutely perfect with this product and I rate it very highly. I will recommend it to anyone who wants a good wash and dryer.

My Kemore has never let me down. It is the go to brand that I would buy again. They are up to date and well made. I have owned other brands and they have not compared to my Kenmore. The tub size is good and the programming dials are easy to read and use, with plenty of options for which every type of loads you are doing. The dryer is also big enough to do many pairs of jeans & towels without worrying that they wont dry.

They were both extremely reliable. They were both spacious. I could do all my clothes in one afternoon. Ive never had a problem with them breaking down. I expect them to last for at least 5 more years. I believe this to last for many more years. The reliability of Kenmore is astounding. I could work these to the bone and have, and they have stood up to multiple loads a day. The Kenmore washer and dryer are simple yet sleek with their design. They will go with whatever visual design you have for your home while outperforming any other washer dryer combo you have owned in the past. Because of the simplistic and sleek design, added with the reliability and performance, the Kenmore washer dryer combo will bring exactly what you need to your home for many years to come. Kenmore has the best value you will find anywhere.

Very dependable and washes the clothes thoroughly. The rinse cycle of my machine is quiet and each load stays perfectly balanced. Each load of laundry comes out perfectly ready for the dryer. My wife and I agree that the amount of clothes needed is met by our washer. The washer has never failed on any of the cycles. This includes the final spin cycle which has never been out of balanced. First impression of the machine boasts simplicity and easy to operate for beginners. The machiness instructions for cycles around the knob is the right size to see. The washer was reasonably priced. Fact is it fit our budget and the quality of the washer was amazing. Plus the warranty attached to the washer cost was minimal and covered repairs if needed.

I was drying my clothes in my Kenmore dryer and was fixing to go to bed. When I walked in my kitchen, I heard a loud noise and smelled something burning. I realized that my dryer was on fire. I quickly unplugged it and realized that the side panel was burnt, my clothes smelled like smoke. I have had this dryer, approximately 5 years. I just did not realize how dangerous the malfunction of a dryer could be. The worry that I have is what would have happened if I had not walked back in there before retiring for the night. Shouldnt there be a safety switch, in which it turns itself off in the event of an incident like this.

It did not require as much maintenance as some other brands Ive owned with the amount of use I put a dryer through. Also it seemed to dry clothes with less lint. I put dryers as well as washers through a lot of use. Typically doing a few loads of laundry per day. I was always able to rely on the dryer working without fail. While this has not been the prettiest appliance Ive ever owned it did the job. Besides appearance is one of the lesser requirements when Im searching for appliances. I felt this dryer was of exceptional quality for the price. I had a front load Maytag before purchasing the Kenmore. I have to say the Kenmore lasted much longer and did equally if not a better job.

Bought both washer and dryer. Have lasted 5 years. So far no major problems. Very happy with my decision to buy new. I believe that is why they have lasted so long but I also only have a household of 2 so not much wear and tear in that area.

My Kenmore washer and dryer last for very long time because they are in America where they should be and they all this time never broken down and in need of repair because they are made by American workers who know how make things right in the first place.

It performs as normally as any other washer. I like the different options and settings when washing and the fact that it is a front load instead of a top load. I have had this washer for about five or seven years now and it still works very well and washes my clothes as if we just bought it yesterday. It is a front load washer and it is white. One thing that I like about the washer is the different settings when washing and it also comes with a display as well. Im not really sure about the value of the product for the money it is worth because my parents bought the washer a while ago for themselves and then gave us the washer and dryer for me and my fiance when we moved into our new house. Overall my best guess would be that it is very valuable for the price.

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.

I have bought several reconditioned Kenmore washer and dryer and they seem to perform efficiently and they are very dependable. My washing area is in the garage and they seem to be able to withstand the cold and dont freeze up.

Kenmore Elite Oasis gas dryer - We bought this dryer in 2006. We got it home and hooked up and it would not work. Call Sears had to fight to get them to bring us another one. Within the first years they had to come fix it. Then They say I only bought 2 protection plans on it. I know it was more. It flashes from 40 on normal cycle to F and keeps doing it. Do not buy this dryer. Everything in my house is from Sears. No more Im done with them. They lost a loyal customer. Its model # 110. The flashing F must mean its over heating cause now that it has cooled down its not doing it. But not drying clothes either. Like I said never again buying from Sears. Its buyer beware.

It dries really fast, just gets noisy when it goes really fast, but overall its one of the best dryers I have ever had - and had quite a few I went through. And so far has lasted. The dryers reliability has been great. And it has been through some rigorous daily grind. Its still like new. The clothes come out fresh, nice and hot right out of the dryer, and we have a very big family to test the reliability. The dryers appearance at first seem like it looks like the rest but when you look at the features, you will be amazed at the potential to never take your eyes off of it when you do your laundry. The perceived value I got was spectacular. With what you all get for the durability, stability of this dryer, you would pay more for a different name to get this all in one dryer you will ever need.

I bought my washer and dryer about 9 yrs ago. They were working fine until last year. I needed a new heating coil on the dryer and a great service man came and fixed it. I got a service contract after that and had some issues with the washer but because of the contract it was fixed with no additional cost. I’m trying to keep them as I’m worried about how the new ones are made.

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!.

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 dryer is amazing because it cut down tremendously on my drying time, saving me both time and energy and also money on my electricity bill. It also efficiently dries everything without me having to run the dryer more than once. Very reliable, no matter what Im drying, even very large loads of laundry. This is the dryer to get it done gently, quickly, and successfully. Totally happy with the way this dryer looks. Clean, white, and controls and switches are easy to see and operate. Totally aesthetically pleasing. This dryer is worth its value and then some, considering I plan on having this dryer for many years to come, and it hasnt given me a single problem yet.

All clothes were not shrink by using Kenmore. Have features I want and easy to use. The most important thing is save water and electricity. I am very happy when I change my washer and dryer to Kenmore.

After using top load washers all my life. My wife and I decided to upgrade to a new set of Kenmore front loader, and matching dryer. This has to be slowest washer ever, with an average load size being an hour or more. Stinks like mildew all the, and we follow manufacturer cleaning instructions. We even leave the door fully open when not in use. Does not get the clothes clean, even at tiny load sizes. We have never loaded it over half full, and not compressed. Weve had them for about 4 months now and I wish we still had our old worn out top loader back. Even though the dryer does fine, I would never recommend this washer to anyone.

I purchased a new Kenmore Elite Oasis washer and dryer and it has been the worst purchase of my life. The washer always displays LF and I have to re-position the clothes. The bleach stays full in the dispenser. The dryer is defective and always says the lint is full when it is NOT. My check did not bounce, but their product did! I want a refund!!! I will NEVER EVER purchase another Kenmore. They suck!

Clothes come out very clean, never backs up or becomes uneven. Doesnt use an abundance of electricity or water. Large enough to wash comforters and bedspreads in easily. Can do a couple sets of sheets, whole load of towels. I wash a lot of clothes and usually have an overloaded clothes basket but never have a problem with fitting anything in it. White machines can get dusty very easily, especially with the dryer right next to it but it is very easy to clean inside and out. No rust whatsoever. Didnt have to pay an arm and a leg for a good washing machine. Have had it for quite a while and have never had any issues with it, which is amazing considering how much it gets used (which is daily, if not twice a day).

It was a clothes washer and I liked that it had a large capacity, also various settings according to the clothes materials. I particularly liked the fact that when the cycle was completed it buzzed and continued to buzz every ten minutes until the door was opened. I also liked that when the cycle was on it was quiet, did not make much noise while running. The dryer supplied all the features that I needed and I was satisfied with the drying cycles. The dryer machine was included in my house purchase and I felt that the quality and ease of using the machine was good. It met my expectations. The replacement dryer that I have was a gift to me and is a GE, but if I were to purchase a new dryer I definitely would consider Kenmore.

The Kenmore brand has been a good brand for me. Ive had my washer and dryer for over 10 years and have only had to make a service call one time under warranty. Since the warranty has been up, I have not had to make any service calls. The only thing that has bothered me is the odor which smells like mildew coming from the washer after the lid has been closed for a while. I solved this odor problem by sprinkling baking soda over the bottom of the washer tub. The clothing that gets washed in the machine does not smell like mildew. My parents had Kenmore appliances for years. They owned their own home so it was possible for them to buy appliances as they were needed. As a renter, I have to abide by landlord rules and get permission for the purchase of some appliances. It wasnt until I moved here early in the 2000s that I even had a washer and dryer hookup in a rental unit. Since my parents had good luck with Kenmore appliances, I decided that my washer and dryer would be Kenmore.

Washer and dryer works very well. I was extremely pleased in its performance and longevity. They were very quiet, energy efficient. Also I like the color and durability of the machine. The washer and dryer were very reliable I never had a problem turning it on and it working just the way it was supposed to. Nice. The energy saving feature was good and saving energy. Theyre very colorful. The dials are easy to read and easy to adjust. The doors are wide enough to put in the larger loads and comforters. Theyre very aerodynamic. Can fit in a confined area without it being crowded. They performed up to their standards making laundry very easy and enjoy to do.

Kenmore front loading washer, Kenmore dryer model 6800. I bought them because they were highly rated by Consumers Reports. Also, the washer was on sale. The price was good. Washer rubber gasket around the door had to be replaced after 3 years of use. Ive had the washer 7 years and the dryer 5 years. This is the third Kenmore dryer I have owned. Both machines are mid line. Both are high capacity and energy efficient.

I was pleased with my Kenmore washer and dryer. I had to replace a motor on the washing machine after three years, which I felt was a little early but otherwise it worked fine. The Dryer worked fine and never gave us any trouble.

I love love love my Kenmore washing machine and dryer. I got a great deal for the set and could not have got a better deal. They work so well and are also quiet and quick. I never have to question their reliability. I always know when I go to wash and dry my family’s clothes that my washer and dryer are going to work. They fit well in their space too and I am happy with how they look in my home. These are beautiful and stylish machines anyone would be proud to have in their home. Would definitely recommend.

Kenmore appliances have worked very well for our family. They last long and do what their intent is. Our washer and dryer is my favorite. It has been so convenient to use. I love it! I have a family of 5 and there is always so much laundry to do. It has held up extremely well.

Purchased July 2011. Motor died March 2012. Rotary belt needed service January 2013. Now with lid open machine with begin new wash cycle on its on for the past week or so. There is a short in the electronics. We need to unplug the machine and then plug it back in between loads. There are 2 of us and do about 3 to 4 loads of easy laundry a week. So now after 4 years our efficient washer will be added to the local landfill. We grew on Kenmore and will never buy another. The heating element in the dryer purchased at the same time is fading. After reading reviews were not alone.

When I wash my sheets and pillow cases I end up with brown feather-like marks on them. This has happened on brand new sheets. Ive attached a picture so you can see what I mean. The sheets arent ripped but these marks keep appearing - not sure if its the washer or dryer that causes this. I have Kenmore Elite machines purchased in 1999. These marks dont appear on my clothes. They appear on all different brands of sheets.

I put Kenmore appliances up there with Maytag and Whirlpool, but usually for a better price and they have good sales often too. I had my Kenmore heavy duty washer for 11 years and the dryer lasted 13 years. Exceptional.

Its an easy to use appliance, and in all the years Ive had it and used it there have been no problems with its operation! It does need to be cleaned to keep working well, but its worth it to have such a great washer and dryer. It also had a lot of settings so you can safely wash delicate items or avoid shrinking your favorite shirt! Its an incredibly reliable washer and dryer system. Ive had to clean it out a few times, but its normal. Its also great at washing all size loads. Ive had large loads of towels, and each one had come out clean and then were able to dry easily.They can sit side by side or they can be stacked on top of one another. I have mine sitting side by side and arent too bulky and certainly arent an eyesore. Overall they look sleek, modern, and simple. My washer and dryer systems were an excellent value. For how well they work, how it looks, and how long they have lasted me I got a great value. It also was a good price for all the features they have like being front loading & having multiple washing and drying options.

After 52 years of great performing Maytag sets, we decided to buy into the HE type washer. The $1400.00 combined price for the Kenmore Elite top-of-the-line set was an immediate disaster (Jan.1911). From day one, both the washer AND the dryer left clothes with a nasty odor. We wiped the washer dry, left washer and dryer doors open when finished, tried bleach, vinegar, baking soda, Tide and Affresh washing machine cleaners to no avail, for (3) years.Fortunately, we bought the extended warranty for the washer ONLY and after the first year, the clutch went out. Then we had the infamous recall to fix spinning problems which resulted in increasing an already unbearable cycle time. Service Calls could not help with the odor situation and we could no longer put up with barely washed and dried smelly laundry and pitched a brand new beautiful looking washer and dryer set out the door. Replaced with a wonderful Speed Queen, American-made set.

I have had this washer and dryer for like 20 years and it is still working!! I have had to replace the heating element a couple of times in the dryer, but that is of course to be expected because they do not last forever. Kenmore is a great brand and I am very happy!! When I do need to purchase another set it will be another Kenmore from Sears for sure!! Very happy customer!!! I would very highly recommend anyone who may be in the market for one to purchase a Kenmore washer and dryer from your local Sears or a sears online.

My Kenmore washer and dryer are well built and reliable and it is great to know that these are American-made products. Im glad that this iconic brand is still available in the USA!!!

I am a mother of 5 and grandmother so our washer and dryer has gone thru a lot. We have had them for over 35 years and other than a few minor repairs, have had no problems with them. Our daughters come over to visit and at times the little ones have an accident and bingo--they are needed again. If we have to get another set, it would definitely be a Kenmore.

Was used but last for some years and I sold it in a garage sale. I wanted to buy a new model and a pair for my new home. I dont remember the exact model. But worked well and never have a problem. The washer was big and I used for my husbands working clothes. He was working in construction later as a metal welder. Worked great. I washed covers, jeans, not a problem. My washer was a top loader, white, has 4/5 cycles, since was used when we bought it had some scratches but panel was fine. Nothing out of ordinary for a regular washer. We bought the pair washer and dryer as a pair, from a paper classified, so was a real bargain and last more than expected. Since that time sometimes regret spending money for new ones. But the new models are really good too.

Honestly cleaned my clothes very well. Wasnt wet when spin cycle was done. Practically dried before putting them into the dryer. With dryer by the way you dont need to leave in the whole time. Will be hot coming out.

The washer is nice sized and cleans clothes efficiently. I just set and go. The dryer dries really well. Most of my past experience with dryers I need to go down to the basement 2 times to dry a load. Very satisfied with my set.

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.

Dryer worked great for a little over 2 yrs. Right after the warranty was up the heat quit working. We thought it was the heating element. But it turned out to be the computer board. I bought a new dryer for what it would have cost to put a new computer board in it. I really liked the appearance of this dryer. Thats why I bought this style of dryer. But never again. I went back to the old style. Just because they come up with a newer style dryer dont mean its better than the old style. The value of this style dryer was not good at all. The very first dryer I bought which was an old style dryer lasted over 20 yrs. But the new style dryer didnt last 30 months.

Dependable, long lasting, power saving. The washer I had was given to me used and lasted for at least 10 years. The dryer saved me on time and money and also lasted at least 10 years. The washer was great as far as large loads of clothes. It did at least 3 pair of pants, 3 shirts and a few weeks worth of underwear in one load. I had a mobile home and the washer and dryer fit like a glove in the area that was made in the hall and it made the space look a lot brighter and more modern. The washing machine and dryer saved me a lot of money a month. It cost about 35 dollars a month to run both of them and saved me twenty bucks a month on gasoline for the car and it usually cost 60-70$ a month going to a laundry mat.

We purchased this in April 2016. We used it about 5 times before troubles began. The machine would stop mid cycle, would not drain. Unless I stood there and watched it, there was no telling when it had stopped. A Sears repairman came out to fix it. He did a reset on it, suggested I unplug it after every wash in case a power outage happened, and told me he would definitely be back for future repairs. Now it is January 2017. We use the machine for maybe three washes a week, since its a second home. The washer stops mid cycle. Doesnt drain. The sensor clicks on and off. Its super fun. I start it, optimistically, on a normal cycle. I hear it stop working, find it full of water. I do a drain/spin. Seems logical - its full of water! It doesnt usually work. I unplug/restart again, do a rinse/spin. Works! But my clothes havent been washed. Unplug/restart express wash a few times. Tonight I actually handwashes my kids clothes. Thank god the dryer works every time. I dont think we will even waste the $75 on the repairman. Never again, Kenmore. Hard to believe this machine hasnt been recalled.

Our machines so far have lasted for 18 years with no problems. They have done the job, worked well and have not required any repairs. What more can you ask from a washer and dryer.

Our washer is great! We love it! I would definitely recommend this washer and dryer to others. We fit a full-size comforter in it no problem and it continues to run great too! I can do large loads in it that include towels and blankets as well! Our washer and dryer fits perfectly in our basement and is attractive enough to not hide. Its sleek but practical design is also what I love about it. It just looks great! The value is great because the cost is perfect and lasts years without any maintenance. It was well worth to buy this washer and dryer because it is cost efficient and lasts years without any problems. Now that eases the mind!

My Washer and Dryer worked great with just the right functions, with a big family and busy schedule, needed a great working washer and dryer that was very reliable and great performance. Im a short person and this machines were just the right height for me, so my laundry was always so easy to do. I bought both washer and dryer at a great value, from the appliance store, these machines lasted me a good 8 years with constant use, normal wear and tear. These machines are very durable. I recommend this product to all families.

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.

Its been an amazing washer and dryer. Lasted well longer than expected. I put huge loads in and am very rough on washers and its still never gave me a bit of trouble. It has strength of no other. Sturdy and durable. No load noises or roughness. Just plain amazing.

I have had my Kenmore washer and dryer for over 10 years and have never had a problem. I am thoroughly happy with these appliances and would highly recommend Kenmore products. The washer was quiet and efficient and the dryer completed the cycles without leaving any clothes damp.

We purchased a 795-783402.804 under the Kenmore name for our summer home in May 31, 2010. We only use the refrigerator/freezer from May to October. The first year that we came back and opened up, we could not get the refrigerator to work. ERR was the reading where the temperature should have been displayed. I contacted Sears and they informed me that my warranty had just run out. In my defense, it took several weeks to have the repairman come to our area. Then after both my husband and I took off from work and drove the two hours so that we could be here when he arrived, he never showed. We had to again set up another appt. and that is when the repairman said the design of the bottom drawer freezer was a bad design and we had to make sure we closed it from the exact center or the fan would not work properly. This lasted about one month before the same thing happened. Sears sold us the extended warranty (another $300) and after limping through the summer, we arrived this year to the same problem and again our extended warranty had expired. So far this summer, we have had the coils freeze up 4 times. My husband has to take off the back of the freezer after removing the drawer and use a hair dryer to defrost the coils. The amount of food that I have had to throw away is a crime. Not only was this refrigerator/freezer expensive but the customer service was horrible and the problem still exists. Bad design or not, it is not the fault of the consumer. What rights does this consumer have? All I have had offered to me was to purchase another extended warranty! One star rating = angry. That doesnt begin to reflect the feeling I have towards Sears!

Price was good, has a large tub so will hold a large load. Dries very well, no need for the restart on large loads to make sure all is dry. My electric bill went down once I got this dryer. Runs very quiet. Good airflow, does not heat up the laundry room.

I buy exclusively Kenmore for all my kitchen and vacuum needs, they run good and I even have a 30 year old washer and dryer still working. I love Kenmore products and this frig is perfect, cools very well and its big enough for my family size. I love the lower vegetable bins. I line them with white garbage bags so when they get dirty I change the bag. But when its running the motor is somewhat louder than I would like since our kitchen is one room with living room and I have to turn up the TV to hear it.

We bought our Kenmore washer/dryer in 1980. We replaced them in 2013. For 33 years, they worked very well. There were small problems which my husband was able to buy parts from Sears and fix himself. We never had a major problem with either appliance. We replaced them with a different brand, and we wish we had keep the old appliances. Our clothes do not get as clean, even with using special detergent pods with cleaning boosters. The new dryer goes crazy and either doesnt dry the clothes thoroughly or runs too long. I cannot say it enough -- WE SHOULD HAVE STUCK WITH KENMORE!

The washer and dryer are several years old but still work well. I would feel comfortable buying another set because I know they would last through whatever my family puts them through.

Durable, reliable, efficient, love to use these. My washer washes really well and my dryer is phenomenal. I have had them for 3 years and are still going strong. I would recommend Kenmore to everyone. I am pleased so much by this brand.

Top-notch. Has worked very well without problems and we feel that we have been very lucky. Easy to use as long as follow instructions and do not overload with too many clothes. We have followed the instructions very carefully and because of that we have been lucky and can count the problems we have had on one hand. Has been very reliable on a consistent basis. It is very plain looking, not too much to make it any different than any other washer or dryer. Easy to get into and get clothes out. Value has been incredible as we have only had to use service people a few times. Price we paid so long ago would be impossible to replace for half the price we paid.

The washer has a problem with balance and a load often needs to be distributed manually during the cycle; the dryer is not very effective when multiple towels are included in the load. The performance is pretty consistent from load to load = the need for rebalancing of the wash happens routinely, and having wet towels at the end of a drying cycle recurs pretty often. The washer and dryer were not bought at the same time, so one is white and one is beige; other than that, they fit my laundry room well and are not too obtrusive. Considering I have had the washer and dryer for 10 and 8 years, respectively, they have been great values. But given the improved current technologies, if I were in the market today, they would not be considered good values based on their performance.

This dryer dries clothes very fast. When compared to previous dryers I had this one is by far the best. I would recommend this dryer to family and friends. Since this dryer never broke and I have had it for at least 3 years, I can surely say that this washer or dryer is very reliable and durable, as far as I can tell. Appearance is something I take in consideration when choosing an appliance and I say that this washer or dryer looks nice in my apartment. Very modern. Even though this is a very good washer or dryer, the price is not so competitive. It is usually a little more expensive than its competitors but I would still go for it again.

I use my washer and dryer at least 3 times a week, and I love the fact that both machines work as they should, every time without a hitch. Further, they get my clothes completely clean and dry them exactly as I want -- totally dry for most things and slightly damp for the items I want to iron. I would never buy another brand.

Sometimes I wish I had a little bigger washing tub but it is a brand I never had a problem with. So I would always purchase this brand because of its reputation. The brand appearance is fine, I dont need all the bells and whistles like some people. Regular washer and dryer are fine for me. It has all the recommended settings that are really reliable as well as having a wonderful warranty. Kenmore has been around for a really long time and it is a great brand at a great price so I would recommend it to everyone.

Both washer and dryer are large capacity loaders, energy efficient, they have multiple heat settings, affordable priced. I would recommend them. I can load this washing machine and dryer to the max and the clothes come out clean and bright, they dont take long to dry. I can dry on low as efficiently as if it were on regular and save money. Plain white enamel, they have simple knobs with 3-4 different laundry and dry settings. They both hold large capacity laundry batches. They are valuable to me as they were not expensive and they keep the cost down per load because they are both energy efficient. They both have special features as far as bleach dispenser and fabric softener dispensers go.

I could put a load of jeans in for anywhere between 35-40 minutes and the jeans would be completely dry. I absolutely loved this dryers performance. This dryer worked wonderfully especially when drying sweaters and jeans, usually I would put a load of 10 pair of jeans and two sweaters and set it on 35-40 minutes and bam! the whole load was dry. I loved how fast this dryer dried clothes. A white dryer top load, with two knobs, one for time setting and one knob for dryer load setting. There is a timer that goes off making a buzzer sound when the dryer is finished. The lint catcher is easily accessed from the top of the dryer. The value of this dryer is well worth the price I paid. I bought this dyer at a used electronics store for 150.00$, whereas in stores brand new they are priced around 300$ to 400$. If I had to buy the dryer brand new I most likely would.

I always used a liquid detergent. I never used powders. I always kept the dryer vents cleaned out to prevent fires and to help the dryer be more efficient. Both my washer and dryer lasted more than 15 years. I think the secret is to use liquid detergents and to keep the dryer vent clean especially to the outside. Neither of my appliances had to have any service other than what I just described. Even though I purchased the cheaper or plain models I found that they were easy to keep clean and that their finish held up very well over the fifteen plus years I used them. For the monies I invested and the usage I received for my fifteen years of usage I think I came out very well and not having to spend monies for service or repairs especially speaks to the quality of both machines.

We like that it is a frontload washer and dryer. Also, you can stack the washer and dryer if you chose to. The amount of detergent we save is amazing. Kenmore is a name that you can depend on. We havent had any problems with either the washer or dryer.

Dries fine, however it gets a musty odor. I would not suggest this dryer based on that alone. It is impossible to clean it or get the smell out! I am disappointed as I have used Kenmore brands in the past and never had an issue until now. Odor aside, the machine dries well and has not really given me any problems over the years that I have owned it. I have not had to call maintenance. I tend to keep the lint vent clean after every use and I believe that helps.Very sturdy looking machine, visually appealing. The brand comes in many different colors. Mine is white and I have no issues keeping it looking clean. I like the window on the front for seeing the clothes spinning inside the dryer. The value is just ok. It dries well but the odor takes away from the usefulness. Sometimes I think it is better to line dry or not use this machine at all! It is pointless to wash clothes and then have them get smelly in the dryer.

I bought a top of the line front loading Kenmore washer with Steam. I had it exactly a year and two days when I had to call a repairman because it was leaking water all over my basement. He said it was because the door was not closing completely and sealing; so, the water is leaking out. I told him that it was not coming from the front of the washer. He did not agree. The clothes that remain in the machine overnight come out smelling like mold wicked bad! The water is now pouring out of the washer and causing mold to grow all over my basement! I called for repair and they want to charge me $89 to come to my home and more for parts and labor! This machine is the biggest piece of junk I have ever owned and that is saying something! I stupidly trust that the companies that my parents believed in are the same today as they were when I was a kid. We had Kenmore washers and dryers for 10 years before having a problem with 8 people living in the home and doing their laundry!! UNBELIEVABLE!! Never, Never Again!!

I got my dryer at a furniture store and paid around eight hundred dollars. The value was definitely too high to me! But if youre gonna use any brand this is it! My dryer was white. The front loader has plenty of room on top! Its so easy to use & hook up was simple. I loved it. Its very clean and nice designed. Knobs were very easy to use. Only problem I had was my lint kept getting clogged after one load. But I washed rugs, covers, and a lot of items. Everything was done quick, nice & warm. I had it for four years before replacing it.

We have had no problem with the Kenmore washer or dryer that we have had for over 8 years. We even had my children and grandchildren living with us at one point. This meant multiple loads of laundry since the children were in diapers and they were cloth diapering.

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.

My dryers performance is very good. I must say its very energetic and runs good. I love my high performance dryer. It also was on sale and I got it at a good price. My dryers reliability is very high standard. ITS A VERY GOOD PRODUCT. I LOVE IT VERY MUCH. I would always buy a high efficient dryer or washer especially if they have a good deal. My washer and dryer appearance I think is lovely. Have a set of black stainless steel dryer and washer. They can handle any size load of clothes that you have. The prices and location is good. They also have a expandable warehouse loaded with good products.

The dryer has had a problem lately, but after over twenty-five years it is expected, although the washer is STILL going strong no matter what I throw at it or many loads of different sizes during the week.

Long lasting dryer that completed dried load in one cycle. Easy to use and minimal upkeep. Would recommend to anyone as a starter dryer. Also owned the corresponding top load washer. Large enough capacity for towels, clothes, etc. Basic white dryer. Nothing too fancy or out of the ordinary. Simplistic. All in all a great value. Low cost and low maintenance, reasonable energy usage.

This dryer works really well. It has tons of settings for various kinds of clothes, is easy to load and use. I was able to reduce my laundry time with this. It hasnt broken down at all on me yet, and I use it at least once every week. I would say this dryer is really built to last, and it shows. Solid and sturdy! Sleek, pretty and fits in with the other appliances I have. It is easy to see the status of your laundry, and I really prefer the look over the look of a top loader. Absolutely a good investment. Im really happy I saved up for this. Its energy efficiency has saved me a lot of money. My old dryer used way more electricity!

Washer thoroughly cleans clothes, and dryer makes clothes wrinkle free. I like how the washer and dryer are high efficiency. This washer and dryer combo always do a really great job of getting the the laundry done and smelling fresh. It is an added bonus that it is fast. I am happy with the appearance of the washer and dryer, they are very powerful, but do not take up anymore space than a usual washer and dryer. The value of this washer and dryer are great. I am happy that these came with my house when I purchased them.

I have never had a problem with either my washer or dryer. Clothes are always properly washed and come out of the dryer so warm and cozy! Ive had both (purchased together) for about 5 years now and have never had a problem with either. Sometimes the washer can get a little loud, but really there are no problems! Would buy again!
