It works great when you have a full load and super easy to apply the settings you want. My clothes always end up wonderfully clean as well as amazingly fresh before I put it into the dryer or hang my clothes out to clothes dry. I find that this type of washer that I own is really reliable because I can wash whatever I want whenever I need to without worrying if it will break down on me just like my last washer. I all around love using it. I will admit that the appearance brings me to be satisfied with the product however I would like the appliance to have more color. White and black are such dull colors these days. Its drab. When I first got this washer I though the price was too good to be true. Fortunately when the manager to the store confirmed that the price that was posted was certainly true, I decided to buy it right away.

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!

Its a Kenmore elite - w/ small, short agitator in the bottom of the machine; top loader. Works well except for the fact that lint collects at the top of the machine where the tub meets a metal rim. Its as if there should be a filter bag at this point to catch the lint.

I had a Kenmore Washer & Dryer for 13 years and only had to replace 1 part on the washer and my husband did it. So we thought it was time to purchase a new set that might be more energy efficient and thought we would go with the Kenmore brand again. July 2013 we purchased the Kenmore Elite top loading washer and matching dryer, for a lot of money, not bottom of the line. My husband was not happy with the washer right away, he felt his work clothes were not getting clean. I thought it might be the setting they were getting washed on so I tried different combinations. I also realized that I couldnt let items soak in the water overnight, it would drain out. We continued to use them since they were not broken and we had given away our other set. In the last 1-2 months I cant wash a load of anything (it first was only blankets) it stops and says unbalanced load. I had them installed by the company who brought them but I double checked that the washer was level, and it was. I cant get through washing a load of 4 items, same weight without it taking all day, and stopping at the minimum of 4 times. I go and rebalance the clothes and start it again. I called and it is $79 to come out and look, if nothing is wrong, I lose the money. If they find something I get it back but pay for the parts & labor. Or I can purchase a new warranty for $229 for a year which covers certain items. I cant sell it without feeling guilty but it was not a couple of hundred dollars, I even feel guilty giving it to anybody but I dont even want to deal with it anymore. Friends have washers and Love them! The dryer is fine, no complaints. Trying to figure out if I should choose plan A or plan B... My luck is bad.

The washer and dryer are very reliable, warranty is awesome. The features are great! Never had an issue and I have owned them for a couple years now. Still going strong. I would recommend this brand to anyone.

Broke soon after warranty expired then started to leak. Just ended up replacing the unit with an LG. I will not buy Kenmore ever again. The washer started out working very well. Unfortunately the machine did not last as long as I hoped it would. The dryer has worked fine. The design and aesthetics of these machines is very pleasing and attractive. I have been very happy with the way these machines look. Since I just had to buy a new washer three years before I was planning I dont feel as if the value of the washer is that great considering.

I am satisfied with how my washer and dryer works. It gets our clothes clean, and we dont need to use as much laundry detergent. Its Energy Star, so it helps save us money. I would recommend these appliance with friends and family.

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.

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

I had a Kenmore set when I was raising my kids. I thought the large size and particularly the durability were great with five kids; I gave the pair a workout. I should also mention living in a rural area, Kenmores are a more convenient brand to service. I believe my pair lasted some 15-20 years, the dryer going first.

This washer/dryer set has operated without a repair for 18 years; it washes heavy and light loads satisfactorily. Routine maintenance such as cleaning the dryer filter is important to keeping it functioning at maximum efficiency!

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.

I have been very happy with my Kenmore washer and dryer. I havent had any major problems with them and they have held up well. I have had them for years and they still work great even after washing clothes for 4 people everyday. Im very impressed with this brand. Its the best brand Ive had.

I have had this Kenmore gas (Whirlpool) dryer since 1986! 3 years ago I had to replace the motor, so along with that I replaced the drum belt, rollers and igniter. Parts are readily available and being handy I did all the work. People seem to discard large appliances without even seeing if they can be repaired.

In my opinion this product was very efficient at its job. It hasnt broken yet after 5+ years of use. This company is great! Also Id recommend getting the washer/dryer both from Kenmore. This product has a very good capacity and almost never gets filled up. It is very efficient and doesnt take long to get the job done. In general it is a very reliable machine. The appearance of the product is very modern and goes with almost any setting. The sound it makes when its finished isnt annoying like other products. In my opinion, this machines value is priceless. It never breaks. Has a large load capacity. It has a cool design and is overall my favorite appliance.

This washer is very good. It gets the job done and my clothes come out clean. Thats all I look for in a washer. It doesnt have to be super fancy just as long as my clothes are being cleaned. It has never given me any problems. It has simple instructions on how to use it and it will be a reliable washer if you follow those instructions. It is just a regular washer nothing fancy. But it gets your clothes clean and it does it in a timely manner. I like a plain look to a washer and dryer anyway. I dont care too much for super fancy. I got this at such a good price. I couldnt pass it up. I bought it as a set and together they make the best washer/dryer investment Ive ever made. I would totally recommend the washer and dryer.

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 was stainless steel looking and I loved the ice maker on the freezer door. The freezer door had many shelves and was spacious. The ability to move the shelves in the refrigerator part was most appealing because I buy different sized containers. Also the dimensions fit perfectly in my kitchen. I have owned Kenmore previously and the company has never let me down. Ive bought different refrigerators on the cheaper side and I can honestly say Id rather pay more for a Kenmore. I have a Kenmore washer and dryer too, with stainless steel look to it too. So I wanted everything to be made from the same manufacturer.

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!!

Kenmore devices seem to last longer and I have less problems with them. They are worth the money you pay for them and are reasonably rated with other types of washers and dryers. They dont break down a lot and when they do the parts are easy to get and it easy to get them worked on. Thankfully my fiancé has a lot of experience with plumbing so he usually fixes things himself.

I purchased a Kenmore Elite Dryer from Sears at Southpark Mall, Strongsville, Ohio.This dryer was not cheap. Although I am very sorry I did not purchase the warranty plan. I did not, because in past years I never had trouble with Kenmore appliances.This dryer is so loud! I did call a few times to complain about it. I recommend that no one purchases this dryer. It has gotten to the point where it sounds like someone is beating it with a baseball bat! Unbearable. And finally it came to the point that I dont feel safe with it running. I am forced to purchase another new dryer! This one is only 5 yrs old now. This is a gas dryer and I am afraid of the thing actually blowing up in the house because the shaking and banging is so rough and loud. I feel it has already affected the gas line. Dont buy a Sears Kenmore Elite! An employee actually hung up on me 3 years ago when I complained about this dryer!This dryer is a safety issue in your home!

Kenmore appliances are excellent. Ive had my Kenmore dryer for 15 years and its still running fine. Never had any problems with it. I also had a Kenmore washer that lasted for 12 years and it was running fine when we decided to replace it for a newer model with more features.

Kenmore has a long-standing great reputation for appliances. I purchased my first Kenmore washer and dryer over 20 years ago and continue to stand by the brand today. The machines are easy to upkeep, and if one regularly maintains them, they will outlast any other machine out there. They are also easy to use, with no user-unfriendly parts or mechanisms. I love my Kenmores!

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.

Good washer and cleans clothes great and is pretty quiet and energy saver too. Washes great and dependable, washes and spins clothes dry so less dryer time which saves money too Looks good. You cannot go wrong with this washer. You will be happy to use it and have it.

I thought I was going to get better performance from the cleaner. It was average. The dryer was ok. But expecting the cleaner to do above average of its function. It did clean the clothes but not in a above average kind of way. It lasted me for few years, except the washer had a problem in the second year of purchasing it. Good thing I had a warranty so the washer was replaced but the hassle of customer service people it was a nightmare but eventually I got a washer. Personally I like newer digital models, and the washers with doors opening from the side but those were too expensive but for my budget and my choice within my budget I was ok with the appearance of the washer and dryer. I wasnt happy with price tag for both washer and dryer, but I needed a washer and a dryer for the house. The price was steep when I purchased it but it seemed really steep when the washer broke down after two years of purchasing it.

It was really good and I enjoyed using the dryer because it made me feel like I was in control with the warmth and speed. I would recommend this to anyone. It came with a great warranty and a service report, which made me feel at ease. I liked how it dried the clothes and didnt make it pill a lot. The design was sleek, shiny, and wonderful. It caught my eyes because of its size and design, making my decision easy in terms of picking this first. I paid a good price for it, and I was surprised at how low it was. Everyone elses dryer was so expensive but this was really good and I was impressed.

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.

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.

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

It was broken down more than it was working. Lots of service calls over & over again. Did not clean clothes like it should have. Most of the time we had to re-wash the clothes a second time. It was not at all dependable. When it did work you had to wash the clothes a second time as it did not always get them clean. It was so loud you thought it was an airplane taking off. It was just a regular top loading washer and a normal electric dryer. It was about 35 years ago when we had these units. It was nothing fancy. Just a basic top load model. Would not recommend the Kenmore brand at all. We just did not have good luck with purchasing their brands at all. We know other people who had good luck with them but for us unfortunately it was the total opposite.

I absolutely love the see thru top.In all my years I have not owned a washer that works so good ever. Im so glad I bought it. Best ever. Ive owned it now for almost 2 years and it runs like it did the first time I used it. I have 2 grown daughters that bring their laundry over (1 has a 4-year-old and her boyfriend. The other is her and her husband) to use it and both were tickled with it. I LOVE the see-through lid! Its the first thing that drew me in to consider it. When I saw it was a Kenmore, I was sold. Ive owned several Kenmore in the past and they have always outlasted other brands. I bought mine from Lowes and it was on a good sale. The price was a little high for me but the sale helped a lot. I also bought the matching dryer. The set was on sale.

I received my washer and dryer last year and I love everything about them. Drying time is quick, washing is a breeze. I love these products and I would recommend to family and friends. My washer and dryer are very reliable, I have no complaints about either of them. The dryer dries perfectly and the washer washes beautifully. My washer and dryer are both white, the knobs are at the top on the washer, the dryer is a front loading machine. They complement my laundry room very well, and I love these products. It was a great purchase. The perceived value is 600 for the pair, it was a good deal for the pair and I havent had any complaints about them. Its a great value for the money. I would recommend to anyone looking to purchase these items.

When I purchased this washer, I held it to the utmost standard of washer and dryers and expected it to be extremely proficient. The appearance of the washer wasnt all that to me. Ive had and seen better washers. But I didnt choose this washer because of its appearance and if I have to choose between performance and appearance, Ill choose performance all day. This washing machine was amazing and didnt leave the clothes drenched in water. Washed like its supposed to and was long lasting. Had washer for 8 years but I wouldve liked for it to last me at least 10 years. This washer is a very dependable washer and would not disappoint. It washed like I expected it to wash.

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

I have owned many sets of washers and dryers but this set happens to be the best. I can wash and dry extra large loads like a comforter or 15 pairs of jeans or I can wash very small loads of gentles and not hurt my delicates.

My dryer is easy to use. It has a dial to turn to what setting the dryer needs to be on for your load of clothing. It is simple to use. It is a straightforward dryer. I dont like the lint trap because if it gets overly full the material will drop down into the machine, and the material is hard to get out of the dryer. Currently I need to clean the lint out of the machine because the dryer is not drying as effectively, and that is my only complaint about the dryer. Otherwise it is a great dryer.

I moved into my new home and the previous owner had left the washer and dryer. I was very happy to know I didnt have to purchase them. To my surprise they were both Kenmore... kind of old, but they worked so good! I love them. I am very satisfied with this product, and very happy to have the opportunity to use them and find out how good these machines are.

Easy to use and understand for my parents who dont speak English. The instructions that came with the appliances were super easy to use. The washer is very good and fast. We havent had issues with clothes shrinking in the dryer.

Efficient, economical quality value and dependability! I would recommend this mfg. to all who need a washing machine or a dryer. I would recommend the dryer also for the same reasons as the washing machine.

After two years of use it would not spin right and clothes stayed wet and had to wring clothes before putting in dryer. We had to call someone to fix problem then it started working alright.

I have had no problems with the Kenmore washer. I believe I paid around 600 bucks and that included delivery and set up costs. Pretty economical in my opinion. Few dents and scratches due to user error and durable in parts and appearance. I use this washer daily and have washed a lot of loads in it. Good size for larger loads and quiet. A front loader gives easy access to removing clothes. It keeps on kicking and other than the occasional belt service calls have been minimum. Also, minimum problems with no switched cycles and various cycles fits my needs. I would consider purchasing a Kenmore washer in the future and have recommended it to others. Dependable and easy to load and control. I really love it. Thinking about purchasing a Kenmore dryer now that I know it is a quality product which seems easy to service by a qualified technician.

I owned a Kenmore washer and dryer years ago (at least thirty years ago). They performed beautifully. I dont remember but three occasions that I needed repair service. The third time I called for service it took a week or more to get it fixed. I decided then that when I needed to buy a new appliance it would not be a Kenmore.

I enjoyed my Kenmore washer and dryer. I have it for over ten years and never had a problem with it. Even to this day my sister now owns it and uses it on a daily basis. Kenmore is reliable and a brand that you can count on.

2 years without a problem. Simple controls. Have dials so push buttons dont go bad. All I have to do is select the soil, water temp, and fill the tub. The machine even knows how much water to put in by how full the basket is. I had been shopping for a new set for some time. Most brands nowadays you have to have a degree in engineering to operate them. I needed something I could hook up and go. I dont want to spend a lot of time figuring out how to run the appliance. My set is so simple to use. No electronic parts/push buttons. Just turn the dial to your preferred setting and water temp. The water level in the machine is determined in the machine by the amount of clothes put in. So simple. Clothes come out clean. The dryer is just as simple and the clothes come out almost wrinkle free. No fuss. Able to get all the weekly laundry done in one day.

Great products. Clothes came out fresh and clean and dryer has wrinkle guard and automatic sensor. Can handle large loads including queen size comforters. Never have had any problems or needed service.

Hundreds of people have gone online to complain about oil spots on clothes from Kenmore Elite washers. Their strategy is to deny the problem as their path of damage control. Owners are told its fabric softener, the wrong soap, their water softener, overloading. They know this is bull. They have made a conscious decision to buffalo the public by acting like this is always a surprise at every service call. Hey Sears! Pick up a few offending machines and troubleshoot them until you find the offending part(s). You replace a part at a time until the spots are gone...duh! This absolutely needs to be a class action suit. Dont tell me Sears isnt playing dumb. Anyone can get on the Internet and read hundreds of complaints. And you will see these posts followed up by carefully scripted responses from Sears Service Dept. This is a skillfully choreographed response to stonewall owners of these washers. Even their own service technicians say Sears wont even tell them anything until a recall is announced. Until then, the word is out, Everybody play dumb while we decide what to do. Dont sit home day after day waiting for repairmen to tell you its your detergent, your water softener, your fabric softener. Their own technicians tell me, anonymously, that the overdone technology washes clothes with too little water. Owners are being told to use as little as a tablespoon of HE detergent. Then youre left with too little water + too little detergent = clothes that dont get washed. If you havent gotten the drift of this post yet, Ill spell it out. This is a design and engineering problem. Unless you plan to redesign how your Kenmore Elite washes clothes, you arent going to fix this problem. My washer and dryer combo is going back to Sears. If they refuse, my next step will be an attorney who isnt shy about filing class action suits. It would look a lot better for Sears if theyd stop playing dumb and step up to the plate. If not, well drag Sears up to the plate.

This dryer does a fairly good job of drying clothes, however it does not take lint out of the clothes very well at all and the seal on the dryer door was not put on very well so I had water dripping out of my dryer which certainly was a first! It is definitely not a top of the line dryer, but overall it isnt too bad. It is pretty reliable with getting clothes dry and has a large capacity drum which is really nice. You can easily fit a very large load in it and unless it is something bulky like bedding it will be dry in an hour. The appearance is very appealing. And it was one of a very few dry dryers we saw when we were shopping for dryers that would fit into the space we needed it to fit into. While I am dissatisfied with the fact that it does not remove lint from the clothes very well, I think it is a fairly good buy for what it cost us. Especially because it uses so little energy it is saving us a lot on our power bill.

I love this Kenmore washer and dryer. Ive had them going on six years and they NEVER gave me a problem. Ive had these for 6 years. Ive washed large and small loads. They come clean with just one wash. When drying clothes, it dries clothes within minutes. They are white with a large wash load. The washer door is on top. The dryer door is on the front. The knobs are easy to reach and simple to set. Every washer and dryer is expensive. This set was very affordable and at a great price. I bought the set at Sears. I was able to catch it on sale.

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

The Kenmore washer and dryer were well made and did not give me any problems. I kept both machines until I was looking for a larger capacity washer and dryer, but up until that point both machines worked very well.

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.

It was a white washer and dryer. The controls were all very easy to interpret and the workings of it were easy. Other than that it was decent. We never needed any maintenance on our washer and dryer. As long as we kept the lint screen clean it worked just fine. Also, not as much bubbling because of soap like some of the earlier top loaders and the clothes came out great. The washer and dryer did very well for us for the price we paid for it and lasted us years! They were both a good value and Id recommend them to anyone looking for a good deal.

I contacted Kenmore right away. I got no response at all! Washer model number 110.5072011. Date of production is 3/16/14. This washer is JUNK! It senses, fills, drains a little, refills, sits for hours on end. Its now a month old and I baby-sit the piece of junk otherwise it does nothing. Ive never hated anything more. It should not take hours for a load. I wanted new because the old one at least 35 years old was taking what I felt was a long time to wash. This is what I get for thinking. At least the old one ran, washed the clothes faster, I could open the lid anytime I felt like it. It actually switched cycles! I hate Kenmore, will never buy anything made by them again. Im going to buy another Brand new washer but it will not be a Kenmore! Im not scamming anyone else into this pile of garbage either. Im using it for target practice! (I live in the country so I can do that) Im recording it, sending it to Kenmore! They are the worst company out there! Bad products. Horrible customer service. Ignoring consumers just makes them angry. So good-bye Kenmore. I hate you, will post reviews about you, your horrible product everywhere. Avoid this washer! The dryer I bought with it is fine but this washer will make you angry every time you touch it.

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.

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 Kenmore washer lasted over 15 years with no problems. I still have the dryer. I never has to call a repair man. The next washer I purchased lasted 8 years and I had to call the repair man several times. It was not a Kenmore.

This is an easy to use dryer. It is easy to figure out the controls and it runs very smoothly. I would recommend this dryer to someone who is looking to buy one. The dryer fits quite a bit of laundry. It definitely fits more than the previous dryer I owned. I can easily dry all my clothes in two dry cycles, sometimes one. The appearance of this dryer is very nice. It is not too bulky and it fits in well with the washer I own. I think this dryer is a great value for the money. For the price I paid, I am very happy with it.

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

We purchased Kenmore 600s series W&D March 2016. This is the most inefficient large product I ever purchased. Where do I begin. The first thing I did was change my mindset about how a High Efficiency washer operates. I got rid of the old way of thinking with the beloved Kenmore washers & dryers of years ago. Well, there is no comparison. The first problem was low water level and white streaks on dark clothing. I switched from powder detergent to liquid and that fixed the streaking issue. Now, as for water level. My first reaction was, why such a huge tub if it really cannot be used? I used deep fill on occasion and I noticed the rinse cycle repeated itself 3 times before I realized what was happening. No more. I had to manipulate the controls to end that nonsense. The water levels were inconsistent even with same chosen options. I wont mention all the variations but this is what I found works best: I use the Delicates cycle w/ normal Soil. Unfortunately it doesnt spin well so I then use Rinse & Spin option but eliminate two rinses. Ugh! I hate this BS. Dont like that I cant lift the lid while its filling. My friend has the same series and hates it! I heard these have a 10 yr lifespan. I cant wait for mine to kick! Never again... Buh Bye... Kenmore.

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.

One of the things I love about my washer and dryer is how easy it is to use it. It is not rocket science like some brands are. You really dont need the instructions. My twelve year old loves to help out.

The clothes were clean and the machine uses very little detergent. When I spotted treated something it came clean. Also the clothes were spun dry as well. It never broke down. Worked as well as the first day to 3 years later. The washer is very attractive and it doesnt take up too much space and where it is a front load you can store your detergent and spot treatment on top. The price was very reasonable because its such a good size you can do less loads of clothes so you use less water and detergents and because it spins out so well you use less dryer time.

My washers performance really amazed me. Best result clean feel. Never thought a washer could do that. Washer had great settings for every load and did what I wanted. My dryer worked and dried quick and easy to use. Never had to run clothes through more than once unlike my old one. The appearance of the washer and dryer are amazing. I loved the glass look as it gave it an extra sophisticated look. Comfort of seeing your clothes become clean. The value for the pair at first I thought was a bit much, but then after using them and becoming familiar with them, I understood why they were priced that much.

I like the way it gets my clothes clean. It is very efficient and does not use a whole lot of water when washing. If I had to make another purchase for a washer or dryer I know that I would choose the same one as I have. I have had my current washer and dryer for about two months and so far I must say that I am very happy. I would recommend this product to my friends and family and the cost is still reasonable. The whole set that I have is white. The washer is loaded from the top and so is the dryer. I love the way that the combination works out with the color of my home. I did a little shopping around and a few different stores before I made a final decision on the set that I have now. I found it for various prices in each store but I ended up paying about six hundred for the whole set.

I owned a Kenmore washer and dryer many many years ago. The first set lasted over 20 years with only a few minor repairs. I was impressed and replaced these with a 2nd set. These lasted less than 10 years. The quality isnt what it used to be. Kenmore is not alone in this as few things are made to last these days. My Kenmore appliances were new over 40 years ago and they were your basic avocado green which by todays standards would be ugly. At the time they were purchased this was very nice. The set I owned so long ago were a great value. I purchased Whirlpool approximately 10-15 years ago because I felt they were a better value.

Kenmore Elite HE 4 - Since 2004 I bought the pair. It cost a lot over 2000 but worth every penny. I put a long term warranty on it. Worth every penny. My first front loader in over 20 years and I cant say enough about it. I have it serviced every year to be sure it is running right. I love this machine. I had the matching dryer but it was gas and when I sold my home I moved into an all electric apt. Would love to find that dryer. I had the stand for it. I carry a long term warranty on it. A great machine.

They were separate. They were white. We moved from the property and left the washer and dryer. It worked fine while we lived at the residence. My parents both have Kenmore washers and dryers and they also have had good results with them.

We were very happy with our Kenmore washer and our Kenmore dryer. We had the washer for about six years and the dryer for about eight years. I think we might have had work done on the washing machine once, and never had to have work done on the clothes dryer. We had two children, both girls, and they would change clothes two to three times a day. I also washed and dried all my work clothes. I worked at a machine shop, so my clothes got really dirty. I was very happy that the washer and dryer lasted as long as they did. They were both worth the money we paid for them!

I got a Sears Kenmore model 92702 due to space limits. This model is a space saver in that the dryer is stacked on top of the washer. It has been many years since purchase, so price is not remembered, but I got it because it was the model that fit my needs. One of the most important reason for getting this is space and where it would fit, next is the various different wash and dry options. It has worked very well over the years. I have had it 15+ years. My next unit if and when, I will be looking for the energy efficiency factor, then at what it has to offer in load capacity. This model I got has five wash cycles, three load levels, and three water temps to use. The dryer part has three drying cycles, which is great for my needs.

Kenmore has always been a top brand when it comes to washer and dryers. Every home that I have had I made sure that Kenmore was installed. They are big enough on the inside and yet still compact to fit in any space.

The Kenmore washer was highlighted by the store and had a wonderful rebate incentive and reviews on them. Said it was one of the best on the market. The washer and dryer work extremely effective by drying my washables very fast and very dry and by saving power and being energy friendly. It is very durable and has endured a lot of usage by my family and me. It could be a bit more energy friendly and energy-efficient by saving me money on my power bill and saving energy being eco-saver/friendly. The filter system could be a bit stronger as well.

I purchased a Kenmore Elite top load washing machine. Luckily, I did purchase the warranty at that time. Shortly after the purchase, the control board went out and needed to be replaced. If I hadnt had the warranty, it would have cost me which is seriously ridiculous, that a new washer should only last a few weeks. The machine continued to have this error code to come up. We would turn it off and restart it. It would work for a little while, then the code would appear again. I finally ordered another control board in December 2011. This one worked for a month or so, then it again started having the error again. The Washer at this time continues to get an error code, although now it will not go into the spin mode no matter how many times we turn it off and on, or unplug it.This has been a learning experience for me. This washer has been the worst major purchase I have ever made. I will not buy another Kenmore product. Its sad, because I thought they were a good name. I actually had purchased the washer, dryer, and the refrigerator at the same time. I havent had a problem with my dryer but had a major water problem with the water line to the refrigerator. I had to replace the water line twice to the refrigerator. It had leaked and flooded through the floor to the ceiling below.Needless to say, I havent been back to Sears in a a number of years, other than to buy the filters for my refrigerator. At this point, I cannot wait for them to get back to me regarding this stupid washing machine. I feel that if you spend that much money on a machine, it should last for more than 5 years without needing major repairs.

I have a Kenmore washer 11045986 400 and dryer that matches. Washer has broke for the third time and the dryer has a short in circuit board. I cannot wash clothes and these machines were very expensive and sears wants to charge me over 300 dollars for a service call when I already paid for the same problem.

It is a really good washer. It really gets the stains out especially from white clothes and its very good with color clothes as well. It doesnt rip the clothes or damages them. It is really reliable. It hasnt broken down or anything. It keeps the clothes looking like new. Its really good quality for a washer. I would recommend this brand and washer to people. It has a nice appearance. Since its white you might just have to clean it every once in a while so it doesnt get scratches or really dirty. The buttons are easy to control bits and outstanding appearance. The value of the washer is pretty good. I could just imagine the value of the dryer. I would really recommend the washer. It is really good with the clothes. Im hoping to have the dryer pretty soon as well.

Kenmore Series 100 HE, Worse washer ever! It doesnt get your clothes clean, sometimes not even getting them all wet! Rugs, blankets, etc, dont even think about it. The tub is supposed to fill by sensing your load size, but it never gets full enough, you cant do a full load at one time, the clothes are still dirty, there are dry spots that havent even seen the water. You have to put your detergent in the bottom because if you throw it on top, guess what? Its still there in all its soggy streaky glory when the washer stops, along with all the lint, hair and whatever was on your clothes when you tossed them into the washer. I could do a better job pounding my clothes with a rock...

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

All of my washers and dryers are front load and have multiple selections on each one like the washer, hand washable, delicate, normal, casual, heavy duty, sanitary. The dryer has multiple selections also as delicate, casual, normal, bulky items, heavy duty and you can breeze the level of heat on the dryer. These have both lasted me 5 years and still going, so the quality and the reliability are very excellent. I have not had any problems with any overloading on water or breaking down on the dryer. Neither one has had any problems at all.The way both of them look they are both front-loaders and it helps with easy access of the clothes and it doesnt make noise like the top loaders when they end up going out. Theyre white, got a clear window that you can look through to see if its being overloaded or if its done or whatever. These washers have been very helpful. The price cost was not much at all. It did cost a little but it was not enough to make it to where I would not want to buy it.

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

In over 14 years of usage of approximately 4-5 loads per week, the door latch gizmo went out twice and the control panel twice. Washer washes really well. Being the HT model must not use too much detergent. Gas dryer dries great. Overall the brand (Kenmore) is not bad. I know there are newer ones out with lots of gadgets but Im not a fan of these. I need a few cycles to cover most typical usage and these are great for that.

Never a problem. Works quick as well and is easy to use. Probably one of the leading brands in the country. I do about seven loads a week. Works efficiently and never gives any problems. Seems priceless. Would recommend to anyone considering of getting a new one and is very valuable. Not so big, fits greatly and doesnt get dirty, real easy to clean, and love white as a color goes with everything. I have my dryer and washer side by side with not a lot of space. Very good pricing for this brand and is worth every penny. We all know repairs can be expensive so I would recommend this brand.

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

I purchased a Kenmore Elite Oasis HE washer and dryer in 2006. I would never buy another one. They are the worst pair I have ever owned. There always seems to be a problem. Just a little frustrating like getting off balance multiple times during each wash, even if I carefully place the clothes around the sides. It is perfectly level also. The sensor of the dryer quit years ago. I cant leave the washer and dryer on without being in the house to try to fix the problem when it occurs, or to check the clothes, to see if they are dry. The pair cost me $1,948.92 in 2006. I had just retired, and hoped this pair would last. I want to be reimbursed, so I can purchase a different pair. I wouldnt even feel honest, if I give them to goodwill.

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.

Bought a new very expensive Kenmore Elite washer and dryer. Excited, consumer reports said great washer, good buy. Absolutely wrong! Clothes are not clean. Wash a load of socks, put in dryer, open dryer, smell dirty socks. Nasty! Wash underwear, same thing when dry, smell like dirty underwear. Nasty! Nasty! Stains do not come out of clothes; dry spots on parts of clothes where they never got wet during wash cycle; clothes come out so wrinkled on heavy duty and normal cycle, the dryer nor an iron can get the wrinkles out, have to wash on hand wash cycle. Towels smell of mildew after one days use. This means they were never got clean in wash cycle. Have to completely fill detergent container with detergent to get even a small load clean. In order to get enough water in the machine, I have to soak the clothes in a bucket and trick the machine so it thinks there are a lot more clothes than there are so it will fill with water. I dont dare leave a load of washed clothes in the washer because they will mildew. Called Sears to complain and ask what could do, Salesman said those machines dont work! Warranty expired. Sell it to someone else at a loss and get a different model. Thats what I did. A doctor and his family bought same model. Saw them at a soccer game! Every one of them smelled of mildewed clothes. I knew exactly what had happened. I was embarrassed for them. I am so frustrated I am at a loss. Sears wont stand behind their product, are rude and basically say it is not their problem. We need a class action attorney! Every one of us needs to join in that lawsuit. I paid almost $2,000 for my washer and dryer and I havent told you about the dryer yet.

My Kenmore dryer is great. I have had it for over 5 years and it still dries clothes super quick. Would definitely recommend that other people purchase Kenmore appliances. Thank you so much Kenmore for the quality products you have that make my life so much easier.

I find the looks of the washer quite appealing, of course its just a standard white washer, sitting in my laundry room, but I do like its looks. My wash has never looked cleaner since I got this washer. I love the washer, works great, clothing is cleaner, very little noise. It is a HE dryer, but the detergent is very easy to find. I find the value very good. Before buying the washer we priced many different brands. But felt this was the best washer with the best price. It gave us the best bang for our buck! I have had the washer over two years. I do a lot of laundry and so far it has never failed me. Works as good today as the first day I got it.

I have a stackable washer and dryer from Kenmore and just love it. Both the washer and dryer work perfectly every time. I have had no problems in 4 years of owning them. I trust the quality that Kenmore puts into their products. The dials on the machines are very straightforward and not confusing. I am very pleased with the product.

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

My daughter gave me her brand new Kenmore Elite Oasis washer and dryer. The appliances were reinstalled by professional tradesman who has installed hundreds of appliances. Right from the beginning the washer did not clean clothes properly. There were clumps of dirt and pints on the clothes, requiring repeated washings. The spin cycle would show unbalanced sign and stop. It did not matter if the clothes were redistributed or some or most taken out, the machine was just hung and it took most of the day to spin one load dry. I had to wring my clothes by hand on many occasions and put it in the dryer half wet. Not long after it was not spinning, it started to make clucking sounds as if someone was changing gears improperly. Then it started to leak. All over the laundry room. I cleaned all connections, replaced the hose screens, had it balanced etc. It would leak a little, but on second wash it leaked all out again. Called Sears and was told I was on my own as they did not honor any defects and warranty was past. This in my opinion is criminal. Selling defective products and doing nothing to fix the problems. Shame on you Sears! Needless to say I wont be fixing this washer, as I have also been told it is futile to do so.

I bought a Kenmore Elite in 2011. Within 3 months, a board went bad and it kept saying SUD - no biggie; it was under warranty. Now, its 2 years and 2 months old. I called Sears for another problem. The drum has gone bad and needs replacing; the drum and other parts are warrantied but the $665 in labor is not. Really??? Do you think they would think about giving you a labor price that is higher than most new washers in their store? Do they expect people to logically agree to these labor prices instead of buying a new washer? This front loading washer with all the bells and whistles was on sale and did not even cost that much to buy!!! I have never had an issue with a washer or dryer. Growing up, we had one for 15 years with no problems. Luckily, I found out my home warranty will pick up the costs but this is a per occurrence thing so if it breaks again, I have no backup to pay for it. What a piece of junk - 2 years old and all these problems. If I have any more problems, I am going out to buy a new non-Sears product washer since it will be cheaper than fixing this junker which will probably have another problem in the next two years. Do not buy Kenmore!!!!! You are wasting your money and it will waste your time constantly having to get it repaired. Im SO Sorry that Sears has gone so downhill and that their service is horrible.

Very easy to use, easy to keep clean, works very well. The washer almost 15 years and it went through two families. And even a few children showing up from college to do their laundry, so I am very pleased with these product, and the next one I bought was the same product also. I own a washer and a dryer for years, I had very little repair done to either one of them, then I needed repair. They came out very quickly, done a very nice and fast job, clean up any messes that they did, made sure the machine was up and running right before the repair man left which I always really like, cause a lot just say it is fixed and leave, so I will always be please with this product. I have always thought that this product was a good looking, even though it was in my basement and really no one ever seen it unless they did laundry, but I feel if the machine set out where anyone could see it I would be proud of the machine, cause it is a nice looking machine. These machine I found when I had to buy a new one was the best value around. And of course they were one only ones I really looked at because they are a well working machine and (if) it broke down, it wasnt a problem to find someone to fix anything that was wrong, and usually it could be fixed which I like a lot.

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

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.

Sears makes a good product in Kenmore washers and dryers. They clean and dry well without being overly expensive. Quiet. Lasts a long time without many repairs. Very reliable. Does not need many repairs. Good size. Can wash good sized loads with no problem. Very seldom breaks. Tough, hard working washers and dryers. Looks like normal washers, tough, clean lines. Comes in several choices of colors and finishes, and comes in several styles and sizes. Washes clothes very well.

Dries a full load of clothes in 45 minutes or less. Also has wrinkle guard capability that surpasses any other that I have seen. Plus it bears the Kenmore name which means quality! Have not had a single problem with this dryer. It works consistently every single time no matter what size load is put in it. Would recommend to anyone interested in the older, front load style dryer. I cant say that it is pretty or even attractive but it looks way better than the rusty piece of junk that I had before I purchased this one. It does have a sleek updated design and is comparable to newer models. Good value for the price. Would recommend to anyone looking for a quality, reasonably priced appliance of this kind. Again, Kenmore is synonymous with quality and value, even in todays market.

This washer is promoted as a large load, energy-efficient design. If you put more than half a load the washer spins so out of control that it shakes my whole 2 story house. Then it starts the rinse cycle again and drains in an attempt to even out the load. One time I let it progress to 10 extra cycles until I could not take it anymore and had to unplug, empty clothes wet, ring out by hand and then put in the dryer. The fact there has not been a recall or a buyback program is a joke. Whatever engineer designed, tested and put this to market should be ashamed of themselves.

My last washer/dryer set was Maytag. Had it 13 yrs, never a service call. Left it in our house when we sold it. Went & bought new Kenmore set. After reading some of these reviews about Kenmore...always reliable, run forever etc. Thats what I thought. Had Kenmore in past & was happy. Well...times have changed!! Im not a top of the line person...paying for bells & whistles Im not even going to use. This model 25132 is mid-line but doesnt have the big agitator, but 4.3 capacity for BIG loads.1st mth I hated it...noisy, walking all over when it spun. Called them out. Serviceman said nothing wrong with it...was I using proper detergent. HE!! What!!! Detergent makes it vibrate. I think not. Married 50 yrs. Have never had a new washer do this. BTW was using proper detergent. 3 yr mark agitator plate went out...stripped. Replaced that. Im sure all the shaking & vibrating had something to do with that. Now 3 mths later, vibrating sooo BAD hits the walls, turns sideways etc. Called out service again. Drum is bent again, Im sure from all the banging around. Costly repair. So am just going to take repair money & buy new washer. But reading reviews, seems like every brand has some of the same issues. Repairman said Whirlpool has bought Maytag & other brands therefore everything has gone downhill. Really disappointing!!!

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!

Have these units (Kenmore Washers) for over 10 years. Have Sears protection policy. In year 2 dryer failed. They could not fix and gave me a brand new dryer! Covered under Sears Cap 10 protection agreement. Cost is about $500 a year. If they can not repair in 4 tries they give you a new unit!
