I was turning on the simmer select burner, and heard a gun shot like noise coming from range. It was terrifying and boiling water from the other burner splashed on my hand. Everything went dead on the stove. It tripped the circuit breaker. I called customer service and product recalls 5 times and kept getting transferred. No one seemed to care, other than to tell me our stove is not subject to recall. I consider this not only a waste of money, but a safety issue.

I purchased a water heater from Sears in 2002 and it began leaking in 2008. That water heater had a 9 year warranty. I had it replaced with a Power Miser 12, with a 12 year warranty. This water heater is now leaking 7 years later. When I called to arrange a replacement, I was told that this warranty is no good since I did not pay extra when it was replace in 2008. I was never told this in all my phone calls to Sears in 2008 and during the horrific process I experienced, in 2008, where I had to find the plumber myself and make all the phone calls and arrangements myself since everything Sears was supposed to be doing and they were not.Now I am told there is no warranty on this Power Miser 12 which is 9 years old. I will never get another appliance from Sears again. In my conversation with the representative he just ended it with I hope the rest of your day goes better. If you are planning on buying a water heater, I suggest you run away from Sears. They are not the company they used to be. They just dont care anymore about reputation. I will be shopping for a new water heater from Home Depot or some big box store.

Kenmore 790 electric range - I have seen many complaints online and on this site about the glass door of the oven door shattering. Mine did just that, last night when the oven was not in use. I have tried to make Sears aware of the problem. A technician is coming to repair it for an $89 dollar fee. I feel it should be recalled, but at least repaired for free.

I purchased a Kenmore range on June 15, 2012. A small amount of tomato sauce dripped into the space between the two pieces of glass on the door. I called Sears repair and they do not cover that in the warranty. It will cost me around $150 to have it fixed. I feel that this is a flaw in the design of the oven. I have cooked for 50 years and never ever had this problem. I realize there needs to be a vent to allow hot air to escape. How are they designing the ranges differently now than decades ago? I will have to look at the smeared glass for the next 10 years.

Kenmore Ultra Wash dishwasher 1 year ago. We spoke to the salesman about family needs and washing dishes multiple times a day. He sold us on this make and model 665.1354. Since the purchase the washer has proven to disappoint, top rack dishes are never clean and leaves dried on debris in glasses after being rinsed that has to be soaked off. Silverware also are always dirty still. On top of all of that the top rack will no longer stay attached to the wheels on the sliding track, all four attachments are now broke making it impossible to use the top rack. When I called customer service and the parts department both departments gave me the runaround and will not replace the part stating it is out of warranty. I am extremely disappointed. After one year to have a machine that is falling apart after the money spent! Sears customer service is terrible! They also use the fact that we did not buy the extended service plan against the consumer. The truth is no 1 year dishwasher should have these issues very poor quality!

Stops working if we shut off the oven and restart it, to adjust temp or if we need to put something back in because it was not done as we thought, only way to fix it is to pull the heavy oven away from the wall to get to the plug, unplug it, plug it back in, which is a disaster as its too heavy for me!

We have had this oven for 5 years. In the 5 years that we have had it it has had a minimum of 2 repairs. I clean it with the automatic cleaner and something burns out in the oven. The last time I needed to wait several weeks for the part and make a second appointment for 2 servicemen to come out to pull the oven out of the wall. It is so obvious that there is a flaw with this oven. Again, I made the mistake of using the automatic oven cleaner and I am again without an oven!! It is so frustrating and Sears suggested that I google it. Not the kind of service I expect. I will never buy a Sears product again. Very disappointing.

I bought all 4 appliances at one time, Kenmore elite top of line bottom freezer/ref, dishwasher, microwave and electric stove. Ive owned them for at least 4 years and had problems with all of them. I paid top dollar for junk. What put me to post my displeasure was the refrigerator. About 1 month after warranty expired I began to receive Er 1F messages. I read on internet to pull the plug and it will resolve problems. I did it several times a year since then and problem would resolve and come back again. Now its becoming more frequent and water is now leaking from ice-maker. Going to change fan and motherboard to see if it solves the problem. Dishwasher also top of the line which I had to change major part that failed which caused major flood/water damage to house. Lucky that was still under warranty at the time. I would not recommend this product to anyone. Buyers beware. I signed up to a class action suit regarding refrigerator problems couple years back but did not hear back from group filing lawsuit. Sears and Kenmore should stop selling these inferior products with the elite tag. I had a GE appliances that lasted for 10 years or more which was much cheaper and more reliable than these terrible products. No wonder they were pushing me to purchase extended warranty cause there was known problems with these awful appliances.

Nice range and stove top, but the electronic controller failed, and replacing a couple of circuit boards cost two thirds of the cost of a new range.

I CAN LOAD IT FULL. EVERY DISH INSIDE COMES OUT SPARKLING AND VERY CLEAN AND SPOTLESS. GLASSES NOT STAIN ON ANYTHING. CLEAN. No residue with the sprayer. Is very good too. It is big enough to put all my dishes and pots and pans silver wares, glasses. It very good on doing the complete job so I would recommend this dishwasher to family and friends. This machine has a sleek color that goes with all your appliances, stove, refrigerator, microwave, even tile. It would be a very good choice for anyone. The value is money well spent. All the extras you will need, so dont hesitate get one. Best value.

The door handle fell off the oven and the oven door fell open in pieces. The product is defective. I have tried reattaching it and it has fallen apart again numerous times. The screws are not long enough. I could easily have been burned or injured if the door fell on me. The outer piece of glass inside the door slipped down. This could have shattered. Called Sears. They offered to send a tech at my expense.

On September 17, 2016, I was baking a batch of cookies in my Kenmore range/induction stove/convection oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit. When I went to open the door to check the consistency, the oven door exploded, sending shards of glass everywhere in my kitchen/dining room. I have taken pictures of the aftermath, along with replacing the range that exploded. I have kept the Kenmore range for further investigation.

ANOTHER KENMORE 790 SERIES FRONT GLASS PANEL EXPLOSION! I have twice, in an approximately two-year period, had the same disturbing incident many others here have described. Twice, the entire glass front of the oven surface forcefully shattered all over the kitchen floor and adjacent room. When the first incident occurred, the company promptly replaced the glass front and assured us that this was an isolated incident. When the second incident occurred, the representative reported that someone would come to our home to replace the glass, but that we were twenty days out of warranty. Any expense would be ours. It is clear to me, a non-engineer, that the nature of the design is hugely flawed and very dangerous. Others of my friends have Kenmore ovens. While their handles meet a secure oven metal piece, our handle meets glass front surfacing. A heating temperature of as little as 350 degrees resulted in this near tragedy. I would not dare to try the self cleaning feature. While I have always been satisfied with Kenmore products, THIS OVEN IS A RISK TO YOU, YOUR FAMILY AND YOUR COMPANION ANIMALS. IT MUST BE RECALLED. Seeing the consistent number of unresolved complaints, we, the consumers, need to consider a class-action-suit. I NEED TO HEAR FROM AS MANY OF YOU WITH SIMILAR NEAR TRAGIC INCIDENTS AS POSSIBLE. I cant guarantee results, but it is clear that the Kenmore brand has callously ignored this risk to our health and safety.

We remodeled our kitchen may of 2013, and purchased new elite, stove, refrigerator, microwave. 3 months after purchase, after using oven and turning it off, it was discovered that not only did it not switch off, it was super heating! We shut off the breaker. Called Kenmore, they sent a repair man out, who looked at it, and decided to replace the control panel. Took about 5 days for the part to come in, so I was without my stove for About 7 days. He replaced the part and we hoped all was well, but then, last week, it did it again. This is very scary! If we hadnt noticed, our house could burn down...again Kenmore wants to repair it, Im done with this lemon! I will never trust it again! Obviously, there is a piece in there that is blowing out this control panel. I paid a lot of money for this range, all I want is what I payed for. Kenmore was useless, but Sears is working with me. So hopefully, they will be replacing it for us....we will see over the next couple days...

Twice now coming home my Kenmore stove has turned itself on by the handle. Nobody was home. I could not figure out how it could happen until I read this happened to others. Very dangerous gas smell. I felt like I would pass out. BEWARE!

We had both the washer and dryer and they were, although basic, very efficient. The pair was relatively quiet, and the washer had an automatic bleach dispenser. The dryer did a fair job. I believe these were near bottom of the cost curve. Even though we replaced both units, they were both in good operating condition after ten years. We gave them to a neighbor who had rental properties and they are still going strong there. There were some options that we did not have, and that we wanted, so we upgraded and looked quite awhile before deciding. We wanted an HE unit, and we wanted the bells and whistles that tell you when stuff is done. We wanted more settings on the dryer. So we went to Sears and actually found something that suited us very well. We ended up, however, purchasing Whirlpool, because of the customer service at Lowes.The units were white. Dirt tended to accumulate under the lid of the washer and it needed wiped out regularly (which probably should be done at any rate). They were, as I said, pretty basic. White, utilitarian. Kenmore appliances, of any type (and weve had several so I can say this from first-hand experience) are some of the best appliances available anywhere. The units range from basic to sophisticated, and the price tag increases as the options are added. In the long run the value is, in my opinion, excellent. I would highly recommend any Kenmore appliance.

Oven exceeded expectations. Meat roasts beautifully. Rolls brown to perfection. Cakes and breads bake uniformly. Potatoes tender inside and crispy outside. Vegetables roast well. Oven cleans well. Stove top performs well. Kenmore is a trusted brand. I have a Kenmore microwave oven that’s lasted for four years. I highly recommend Kenmore ovens and microwaves.

Great working gas stove and oven. It has been good to me and bakes very well. I have owned it for over 9 years and only had to replace the control panel one time. It seems very solidly built and visually appealing.

Unhappy with the vent design on door of oven. Difficult to clean and when something is spilled, it runs inside door rather than out.

Purchased Kenmore Stainless Steel Cooktop Stove Sept 2015, now 5 months old, noticed rust bubbling up on the front door and lower draw panel about two months ago. At first I thought it was just a food stain but it would never clean up. Contact Sears repair, repairman sent and I was told not covered under their one year warranty because it is a cosmetic issue. I was then told that the stove is not really all stainless steel but partial and has other alloys mixed into it which is probably why it is rusting. I said that nowhere did it say this is not a 100% stainless steel and this is a definite consumer fraud, and misrepresenting the product as stainless. He said that is the way they all are at the $500 price you paid. Pure stainless steel stove would cost $4,000-$5,000. I was mislead to believe this was a stainless steel product, I am left with a new rusting 5 month old stove that no one will do anything about. BEWARE OF YOUR NEXT RUSTING KENMORE PRODUCT!!

It worked wonderfully. It is high quality. People really enjoyed their Kenmore refrigerator. It is an upright freezer, it is good for a small to large family, it is good to put in pantry or cellar. It has one door, 3 or 4 shelves. It has shelf on doors, plenty of room for extra meat or vegetables. You could place just about anywhere. Its energy efficient, too. The price range would be about 600.00 to about 2,000 dollars with 5 year warranty which would replacement parts and labor to fix it or a refund or replace with same make and model. I would recommend, it was a great idea to buy and use.

This was a brand new unit in my brand new house. From day one I had problems with both the oven and microwave. First-after using the microwave for a couple weeks, I noticed the handle had become loose. No problem I thought, Ill just tighten the screws-nope. The screws are not accessible. They are hidden under the plastic frame and are not able to get to. I called Sears authorized service, they came out, and because of the poor design flaw, they had to replace the entire door=$500.00, which was covered. Now the oven, it never has heated properly and when I went to use it, it made a loud humming noise, then when I went to use the broiler, the cooling fan you could hear, was scraping against the sides of something inside. Once again, Sears service was called, came out, had to order a new fan/motor. To access the fan/motor, they had to pull the unit from the wall, and in doing so, tore my wall up a little bit.When they sat it on the floor to work on it, they didnt put anything under it and there were major dents in my new luxury vinyl flooring. They got it repaired, re-installed it and it worked fine until yesterday. The microwave door handle is loose again also. I called Sears service yesterday and explained to them its doing the exact same thing it was when they were here before. The representative informed me it would be a service charge of something like $250.00/hr. I couldnt believe it-I told him its doing the same thing it did before. Their response- their repairs only have a 90 day warranty. I told him I wasnt paying for what obviously is a poorly designed appliance. I informed him I would contact my attorney. Bottom line- every mechanical and electrical device will have its issues over time, to me, its about how the manufacturer stands behind their product. Will not buy a Sears product again.

Very good product. The refrigerator was a plain Jane white and it looked clean. It was just right for our little family but our family got larger and it started to get cramped and thats part of the reason we bought another one. But its performance stood up. For over 6 years it was time for an upgrade but it has done a good job. It was a fair value for the time most refrigerators were in that price range at the time and it was a reputable company with a good name.

I purchased a Kenmore oven (model 92703, stainless steel, 5 burner, one rapid boil, convection, self cleaning) from a local Sears appliance store in June 2011 for $850. In December 2015, it stopped working, and the repair guy showed us the electrical panel was burned. We decided to be on the safe side and replaced the whole thing for $330 (plus the $100 service call fee). Almost exactly one year later the broiler element is out, we pulled off the back panel yesterday and sure enough, the electrical panel is burned again. So its a poorly made product, and its cost me over $1000 to own this oven for just over 5 years. It was nowhere near worth that amount of money. Dont ever buy a Kenmore range.

After building a new house, we decided to get a nice stove and bought the Kenmore Elite 790, plus Kenmore microwave, dishwasher, refrigerator (all stainless). The stove has been a disappointment ever since. Top burners seem to have very little control. Oven has never worked right. Sometimes when baking, it switches to broil and burns food. Sometimes when it switches, it overheats and an error code displays. Sometimes, you put on bake, and the broiler comes on. Yesterday, the inner burner of the triple burner quit working. Besides that, we have only had to replace the control panel on the dishwasher. I think I would prefer non-electronic controls on stoves and dishwashers; older stove controls lasted forever. Anyway, my next stove will not be a Kenmore. Spend all that money on that piece of junk.

Its louder than we expected (partly because it resonates within the cupboards its next to) and recently has started to leak -- not from mechanical issues that we can observe, but based on the type of detergent we use in it. Ball/pod detergents seem to be incomparable with it. Otherwise its performed reliably and done its job. We knew what we were buying and were already assuming wed replace it a few years into owning the home. Fits enough items that we can usually clear one side of the sink if not both; for larger pots and pans we sometimes cant fit everything in one cycle. Very nice looking for a mid-range model; matches well with our other appliances and isnt as susceptible to fingerprints as other stainless items weve owned. We got what we paid for -- not saying its not a fair value for a builder model but rather that we knew the level of quality we were getting and assumed wed need to upgrade in a few years. Cheaper to do that ourselves than through the home studio/builder.

My mother is a veteran of WWII but may be defeated by her Sears Kenmore oven. She has a model 790 in wall oven which is an obvious lemon. It will frequently fail to complete a cycle (shuts off before cooking is done) and has ruined several batches of food. The problem appears to be a computer control module. While I was there over the thanksgiving holiday it abruptly locked up (as though about to go into self clean mode) with the holiday turkey inside. Fortunately we were able to locate the plug and unplug the thing (which still did not unlock the oven, but at least the dinner was not incinerated). We were worried about a fire and are grateful that it did not happen while we were out of the room. She has had at least four failures in the last year, but since the problem is intermittent (only once was it still malfunctioning when the tech arrived) it cant be verified for warranty replacement. The available service calls are limited to two days a week by the company Sears contracted with, so almost impossible to get the problem solved. Calls to Sears for repairs are often unreturned. Parts are apparently hard to come by (the control module was replaced, for example, but the part was ordered in February, arrived in August). Really disappointed in Sears... I was raised as a Sears customer, but am alienated by the way they treated my mom and disgusted by the drop in reliability. Used to think I could count on them, but no more.

Have had difficulty removing door for cleaning since the purchase of the stove... Kenmore! I sure have had problems with this unit!

Purchased the Kenmore Electric Range Model #790-94182310 in March of 2015. Used mostly the top, some baking but no more than 10 times a month. Babied this range! Wiped up any spills myself. However had a spillover and decided to do the first self-clean. Range is 1 year and 8 months old. The error code came on flashing F-10 on the display. I hit the off button but the F-10 continued to flash. Turned off electric supply at the breaker. Never had a ring or anything other than the F-10 to alert me. By the time it cooled, I had done the research for troubleshooting which was very helpful through YouTube by a Sears technician. We learned there was probably a temperature sensor problem. We also learned how to test it and the control panel. After removing the back panel, we discovered they both were heat-damaged. Part of the control panel was blackened by fire. The odor that I smelled and thought was the cleaning, was the plastic around the panel and the elements within the control panel. Called Sears - they offered to send a technician that would cost $89, then of course it would need the parts. Didnt bother finding out what that would cost. Did not buy the extended warranty. Who would have thought that the first time you self-cleaned an oven it would catch something on fire!!! Very unsatisfied. We are going to attempt to fix it ourselves but we do not intend to ever purchase Kenmore again. Loved my KitchenAid that I had for years and only got rid of it because it was black and I wanted to change to white. Needless to say, we are angry. Also said they could not find where there was a recall on the range. Gave me another to call which I will do. Now to hope for a recall which I feel is necessary!!! I have pictures but for some reason says file type not accepted???

My Kenmore Built-in oven is a workhorse. I have had one service call in 16 years of using it, and that was due to something I did wrong. I dont know how old it is, but it was built in when we bought the house in 1999. They may no longer be as good, but one can hope.

The washer and dryer works perfect and I would recommend it by the company. Its easy to use and they last for a very long time. Other people has bought it and was happy too. It spins really fast when clothes are in it, cleans clothes fast and takes the stains out of clothes. And Im happy with the cycles spin on it. The cycle spins are fast on it. My washer and dryer are both white. I use both of them and got them for a good price. And the company is a great company. The value is great, the price range is great. Youll be happy with it, so will the customers on the face of the planet.

Kenmore Double Oven Electric Range: The bottom oven is 50 degrees hotter than what the oven is set at. The owners manual has a section on how you lower or higher the temperature by 35 degrees, but when going through the steps, it appears that the instructions are to change the setting from Fahrenheit to Celsius. So I am unable to use this workaround. It would have only changed it 35 degrees, and I needed it to change 50 degrees. I bought this oven for baking. So it is essentially useless to me.

This dishwasher is much better than my previous one. It uses less detergent and is more energy efficient. It is also much quieter than my last model. The interior racks also provide better loading arrangements. This model fit perfectly into my previous dishwashers slot. It seems to have more interior space and better design of the racks permitting better organization of dishes. I really like the streamlined appearance of this dishwasher. It has that fingerprint resistant stainless steel finish and is easy to keep clean. I am very satisfied with this unit. I felt that the price on this unit was a little high at first but after deciding on it and having used it I found it was totally worth it. Its efficiency and ease of use was totally worth the price.

The range is absolutely awesome from its sleek design down to its performance. It has never let me down and has always been up to the task that I present it everyday. The 15000 BTU burner gets water boiling quickly while the smaller eyes keep sauces simmering and other food warm.

I find my Kenmore to be generally reliable and efficient. I dont believe that it gives the best wash results but I find them satisfactory. For the money I think it is acceptable. My primary concern is that even when I pre-treat different articles of clothing it doesnt seem to make much difference. I suspect that there are washers that would produce better results but are out of my price range to purchase.

This dishwasher has provided a good dishwashing experience and has performed as expected. It cleans and dries the dishes dependably, with only rare missteps. It runs efficiently and saves energy and water. It is perfectly sized for the space in our counter area, and fits snugly with no gaps. The dishwasher interior easily holds a large amount of dishes, if properly arranged. It has a nice, simple, clean design. The sterling silver and black complement other appliances of similar design, even those made by other manufacturers. When considering the performance in relation to its cost, its a great value.

Kenmore glass top electric stove model 790 purchased 2011 - I used the broiler to cook a burger. When it was done, I turned off the oven and left the door ajar. After 15 minutes I heard the oven door fall off, first one side then the other. While screwing the handle screw back on, the whole tempered glass oven window exploded. Thank goodness I had glasses on, a thick shirt, pants and socks or I would have been cut up. My little dog was just behind me but I blocked the flying glass that flew onto counters and into the next room.When I checked the model no. online I found out that so many of this model have had the glass door explode, that pressure was put on Sears to recall this model. Those who got new glass doors had them explode again and some people had them explode a third time. Also luckily the oven had cooled down when it exploded but many people had hot glass shot at them. This model shouldnt even be on a showroom anymore.

Looks good but performs poorly. Difficulty coming to and staying at desired temperature (figure at least 20 minutes). The oven fans are very noisy and the oven takes a long time to cool down. Called service out twice to fix and they found nothing wrong. If you like to bake this is not the oven you would want.

Only had this piece of junk about a month when grease got between the glass panels on the oven door. The thing was under warranty so a man from Sears came out to fix it. He got the door disassembled, but was unable to put it back together. Days later, another guy came out to finish the job. The grease between the glass panels is still there! Later, upon hitting the BAKE and START buttons, the LED readout would read PRE HEATING, but unknown to us, the oven would arbitrarily refuse to light - no rhyme, no reason! A lot of meals were lost. We were STILL under warranty, so another Sears man came out. He replaced a part, but a couple of weeks later, the problem returned. He came out again with yet another part (more of this cheesy circuit board crap). Oven still wouldnt work. He returned again with yet another new part (expensive), couldnt fix the problem, left the part with us and went back to Sears, never to return. To this day the problem still whimsically comes and goes.Adding insult to injury, the oven has now begun to shut off in the middle of operation. The display panel reads E2 F3. It might just as well read, Tough luck, loser! Breads, pies, chicken, turkey, roasts. There wasnt anything my mother couldnt bake or broil with her gas range, and the thing didnt have a single circuit board, transistor, diode, capacitor or resistor in it. My Kenmore Ultra Bake Self Cleaning Super Capacity Gas Range is loaded with space-age electronic components and now it cant even bake a ** cookie!

Purchased a complete suite of appliances for my new kitchen 4 years ago. Major failure on the $3,800 fridge after 13 months, water pump, (2) door hinges and silverware basket on dishwasher, complete replacement of microwave and 5 repairs on the double wall oven. COMPLETE GARBAGE. WILL NEVER BUY KENMORE AGAIN!

Power went out due to windstorm and when it came back on I realized my Kenmore Elite 42562 4.6 cu. ft. Slide in Electric Range wouldnt work. Sears sent a repairman and it was about $900.00 to repair since it was the electronic controls. The range cost $2000.00 and I had it for just over a year so I wanted it fixed. They said I needed 4 parts, but after almost 2 months I had only received 1 part. Eating out is expensive so it was frustrating. Then I received a call from customer service saying they cant get the parts. Customer service is having the part picked up tomorrow by UPS and will then credit me, but I assume I will be out the cost of my range. I am beyond frustrated and when I looked online tonight the range is still for sale. Do not buy this range!

I have owned a 2005 model Kenmore washer and dryer. They had several convenient settings for any size load, timing, heating/cooling on both the washer and the dryer. Size efficiency for smaller areas. Decent price range. And especially the warranty.

Apparently my problem of the oven racks falling is quite common with Kenmore Elite ovens because the walls are too thin. If this is a design flaw or intentional to generated more revenue, we will not know unless the government gets involved and requires a recall. This was the answer I got after several days of the run around with Sears saying it is a Kenmore problem and Kenmore telling me they are owned by Sears and it is a Sears problem. All the while denying there is even a problem and the only way they would acknowledge the problem is if the government had enough complaints. This is a $500.00 fix and they use the same defective walls to replace the existing. Im completely exasperated and hope this complaint will add to the many I have seen and something will be done. It is a Safety issue most of all and people can easily get burned with falling hot racks.

Model 790.7323 - Last year, after the Kenmore stove that had been in the condo since 1982 had a meltdown and I went and replaced it. I do not cook. Use the microwave or toaster oven. I recently gave the toaster oven away to clear up counter space. Decided to heat up some Publix side dressing. Tried it again around Thanksgiving and it was dead. I got the oven in April 2014, and believe it or not, I am not I do not cook. It is just two aging dogs and me. I work, so it is usually a microwave meal. It still looks showroom new. I called Sears, and they will do nothing. They want to send me an outrageous warranty for a year, which will cost more than the stove and send out a tech at 60 a pop until they fix it. One time and it quit working! I think they should take the stove back and replace it! I was not even cooking -- just reheating! Sears used to mean Quality! Go elsewhere next time. I will never ever step in a Sears Store!!!

I spent two hours trying to talk with someone that would help me find out if there is a recall on my range. The outside glass of my oven shattered in the middle of the night. Luckily no one was near the range. I had glass everywhere. I did notice on this site that there was a similar case on Aug 2, 2016, so I wanted to talk with someone to investigate this problem. After spending much time trying to talk to a real person then finally talking with a person that wanted to send a technician to diagnose what my range needed and the cost to have a technician come to my home would start at $89.00, I gave up and just ordered the glass. I am very worried that this has happened more than two times and someone could seriously get hurt.

Kenmore Elite oven model#: 790.4107 - We broke the glass top and a serviceman just finished replacing the glass top and we noticed the glass door handle was loose. So he then begin tightening the oven door handle at the screws when the entire outside glass door cover exploded throwing glass on both of us and all across the room. It was obvious from looking at how the door was constructed that a design flaw was the cause BUT neither the manufacturer or Sears would accept responsibility And both said the other designed the oven and passed the blame on the other. Because we had no warranty or a Sears serviceman doing the job at $175.00 more, Sears refused accepting any fault but our own.

Not satisfied with Kenmore products. I bought dishwasher, stove washer, and dryer from them. All my appliances have had issues. Thankful I bought outsource warranty company. Only they cannot cover refrigerator compressor. Said that it was covered by Sears. Now dealing with Sears warranty they want to charge 89.00 for service call. If they find more wrong they will charge me for the parts. Never will I buy from Sears ever again. When you call them you can barely understand what they are saying. They hung up on me because I want to talk with manager. After reading all the reviews I struggle what to do.

The Kenmore Gas Range 7290 we bought from Sears has been a real letdown. The Electronic oven control board continues to need replacing. Even the last one we ordered from Sears didnt even work when we installed it. They have to send us another one to replace it. There needs to be a recall on this gas range. Its a dud and a waste of a lot of $$.

Well built and designed to work for a long time. My family loves ours. Had it for over 10 years. Would recommend one to anyone, small or big family. The size and space inside and out fits our lifestyle, plenty of storage space in lunch meat and vegetables drawers, lots of shelf space. Sits tall and straight and very level, built solid to withstand the family who opens and shuts it often. Easy to keep clean. Just wipe and go. The price range fit nicely within our budget, very affordable. You get what you pay for. Very competitive price, cant beat it. Very nice.

We have a Sears Kenmore self-cleaning oven. Last week the broiler came on, when the oven was off! I thought I smelled something hot in the house and found the oven extremely hot, on the verge of being on fire. After shutting off the breaker and allowing the oven to cool, my husband turned the breaker back on. Oven is still off. The broiler came on. We allowed the oven to cool again. My husband removed the back panel and disconnected the broiler. However, we are not comfortable with the stove and will be replacing it - but Not with a Sears product. My daughter had the same range. Two years ago my granddaughter (age 16) was baking cookies. She put a tray of cookies in the oven, left the room and the self-cleaning came on. The cookies started on fire and she could not open the oven because the self-cleaning lock was on. Stove was a total loss. Lousy product.

We bought an over the range microwave because it matched all the rest of the appliances in our newly remodeled kitchen. Weve been very pleased with it. It has a soften function, which Ive not seen on a lot of other models.

Bought the Kenmore double oven (top a microwave, bottom an oven). Oven racks kept falling. Sears replaced racks, oven interior, and wound up replacing oven. This time we got bottom and top ovens. Racks in both oven still fall. Very dangerous.

The product in which I have purchased and used for the past 4 years works great. I have no issues with them at all. Kenmore is a great product that continues to innovate and produce fantastic product of all price range.

I purchased a Kenmore Power Miser 12 Model #153.331414HA water heater six years ago. The heater was rated as a 15 year heater. In the last six years, I have replaced the pilot light assembly three times and cleaned it countless others and for the last year I have had to manually light the pilot everyday in order to get hot water. I order a replacement pilot assembly and installed it. The replacement unit failed after two days. It was obvious to even me who is not a mechanical whiz that the thermocoupler on the pilot unit was not shielded from the open burner flames thus causing it to overheat and shut off. At the same time I purchased a gas range. The ignitors for the stove top have not worked properly since about one year after purchase. Only one burner will ignite and you have to manually light the others to cook. Also for the last two years, the oven will not heat to the proper temperature (i.e., about 200 degrees lower than the setting on the control unit). I too have experienced poor customer service from SEARS including having to pay $75 dollars for warranty repairs, customer support staff obviously located in Mumbai, India not being able to answer questions about parts or service, delays in scheduling repair times, and my wife was put on hold off and on for over four hours trying to get her questions answered and to get a repair time scheduled even though she asked repeatedly to be transferred to a supervisor. The supervisor was no greater help than the customer service representative. I have since bought a competitors brand of hot water heater because it is made in American and their customer support staff are located in the United States. I also filed a complaint with the Chicago Office of the Better Business Bureau about these appliances. SEARS has responded that their records only show one service call to them and I informed them that their records are inaccurate because there were two repair calls for the same issue. SEARS has informed the BBB that they will not reimburse me for the cost of the hot water heater or even for the cost of the replacement pilot light unit I recently purchased which failed nor have they addressed the issue with the gas range. I have asked the BBB to inquire as to how many service calls SEARS has received nationally regarding replacement of the pilot light unit on this model of hot water heater and the number or percentage of these calls which were repeat service calls to replace the pilot light unit. I also asked why I cannot be reimbursed for replacement pilot light unit I just recently purchased that failed since there should be some limited warranty of 30 or 60 days on even parts. We will see how they respond. If anyone else out there has had similar issues with either this model hot water heater or with their gas range I would like to know.

I have had my Kenmore Range and Self Cleaning Oven for 16 years. The oven has convection and it’s so wonderful to be able to rapidly cook things fast and have them ready for my hungry family to eat. My stovetop works wonders to cook on. I am a Self proclaimed Chef. My friends and family are amazed at the food I prepare on my 16 year old Range and Oven.

I wanted to get the stainless steel to match the rest of my appliances. Its beautiful and sleek and it looks great with the oven, the microwave and the refrigerator. In this washer I am able to pack everything - plates, cups, and even pots and pans. I only have to do one load and I am done. I put the kids cups as well as the glass cups, fork, knives and spoons, even the ones I use for cooking. Even when I forget to clean thoroughly, it leaves dishes real clean and it dries them real good. The dish its still spic and span. This dishwasher was very expensive but well worth it. I would recommend it to anyone.

Controls are not confusing and are easy to understand. There are enough settings for all my needs and uses. Unit is just the right size for the over the stove use and easy to reach. It is easy to clean, the tray is a good quality glass and not too heavy.

My washers performance has been great. It gets the job done. It has lasted longer than any other brand. It cleans the biggest material, which would be my comforter. It had endured one of my king size comforter and a number of occasions. Also has endure tons of clothes piled on high without ever messing up. It is white with easy to read settings. I like how the controls are easy to read and adjust if needed to be changed on a different setting, due to the clothing difference. It was/is my price range for the right amount of size and settings for my family. It has held up to its value so many times and I see a few more years with it as well.

We purchased Kenmore washing machine 110.26132410 in March 2016. It has been the “washing machine from hell.” First I noticed the huge amount of lint in the filter of the dryer (same dryer I had with the old washer) when I laundered towels, and these towels were becoming frayed and worn. Then I noticed that there were holes in some towels, as if eaten out by bleach. I had used only as much bleach as indicated in the manual and put it in the bleach dispenser. Finally before my one year warranty ran out, I called for a technician. He found nothing wrong, but noticed that the bleach on my shelf was the “splash-less” type. He said that the bleach just goes to the bottom of the tub and could just stay there and not mix with the water enough and therefore get on the towels. He suggested that I use the “liquid” type bleach. There was no mention in the manual to use only the liquid bleach. I will say that there have been no new holes in my towels, but my towels have continued to wear out at an unusually high rate, and the lint filter on the dryer is still completely full after each load. I also noticed that this washer did not clean well and sometimes noticed that some clothes were not even wet. When I bought this, I had thought that the feature of “deep fill” would be useful, but found that it could only be used with “heavy duty” setting or above, not for “normal” or below. This washer has proven to be very unsatisfactory, and I will buy a new washer when I can afford to do so.

This oven cost $1,400. In the fall of 2009, the motherboard crashed. In 2010, it was only used for 8 months. I returned it sometime in November of 2012 because the motherboard completely went down. The manager at Sears, Sarasota, said nothing can be done, but they can give me a 10% discount on a new stove. Talk about not standing behind your sales. My advice to everyone is to buy from a small store so that owner has a commitment to you and the community. I’m taking it back to Sears and dumping it on their doorstep, with sign that says “New stove. No support” and my email on it. What more can I do?

My Kenmore stove is not two years old and has an area where the oven vents on the upper left side that burned the paint and it is now peeling away. It burned the first time I used the self cleaning oven and is now peeling. I will not pay the $80 fee just to have them come and look at it when it is something that is obviously wrong with the manufacturing. Also one side of the oven gets hotter than the other. Dont buy their refrigerators either.

I purchased my refrigerator from Sears in 2009. In the first year, I experienced the inside light not turning off and melting the cover to the lights. I am well out of warranty now, and my fridge stopped making anything cold. No error codes or signals, opened my fridge and freezer to puddles of cesspool of muck. It appears as though everything is fine from the outside. Apparently I need a new condenser. I have had nothing but countless strange problems with my fridge, hindsight is 20/20 now. I would NEVER purchase another from Sears or Kenmore. Expensive pile of chrome junk, paperweight at best.

The performance is to die for, just a bug load. It clean so deep you can smell even if its just water. But the performance is one of a kind and will stick to Kenmore product from now on. I have had plenty of Whirlpool washers and dryers but this Kenmore is one of a kind machine. I have had it for a couple years where my Whirlpool pool last less than a year. The appearance comes to mind when you get home and have extra space. Looks small but the big deep drum holds a lot of clothes for that big load you got just sitting around. The values of the washer and dryer is outstanding. I prefer Kenmore over any other companies. The value of the performance and the price range is up anyones alley.

I have had this refrigerator for several years and I have never had a problems with it. The seals are extremely tight and the insulation is great as I never have to turn it up very high. I have a family of 6 and there is plenty of room for storage. I do have extra drawers that I put on the shelves because with 4 teenagers it makes no difference how big your fridge is, there is never enough room. Mine is the color bisque, it matches my stove and my washer and dryer. I prefer this as it does not show prints and spots as easy as as white one does. Mine has a left opening as that is the way my kitchen is designed. I bought it on sale and it was extremely well priced. I would have bought it whether it was on sale or not as it was the only one I could find that completely met all of the things I wanted.

I have had the Kenmore range 7909622240B more than a couple years and this is the first time this has happened to me. I have a 254 pound ham on the rack one slot lower than the middle. I was pulling the rack out to drizzle sauce on it and halfway out the rack fell out of the slot, luckily the ham was not on a higher slot or it would have dumped over. I did however get splattered with melted brown sugar and hit my hand against the side of the oven trying to get out of the way of the falling ham. The brown sugar and grease spilled onto the bottom of the oven smoked and burned! What a mess!

Kenmore Range model 970-67843 - Hello, We are hoping that you can help us resolve our defective Kenmore range, which we purchased new from Sears in Kelowna, BC 4 years ago. We have always purchased Kenmore appliances, and have always been happy with them. So when we lost our home to a fire in 2009, and rebuilt it, we once again, purchased all Kenmore appliances including Frigidaire manufactured range and fridge. We felt confident that we were buying a quality product, but did purchase the 3 year extended warranty as well, which has of course, expired. Then this Thanksgiving, Oct 2014, we had just about finished cooking our Thanksgiving dinner when we heard a buzzing noise and saw black smoke coming from the back to the range. We turned it off and the next day, turned the oven on, only to find that it did not work at all. The cooktop does work still. We called Sears only to be told that the warranty was expired and we were out of luck. So we took the range to a repair service, who told us that it would cost us at least $500.00 to fix the oven. This does not seem right, when our appliance is only four years old. Clearly there was a manufacturing defect. We cannot afford to buy a new range, or pay hundreds of dollars to fix this one, and we are asking Frigidaire, as the manufacturer, to stand behind your product. We have been without an oven for two months now, and that is not an easy thing at this time of year. Please respond and let us know that we can feel confident in our purchase. This stove is not only defective, but dangerous, and should be recalled.

Defective and dangerous. Stove five years old. Walls of the oven suddenly retracted. Racks dont fit and they fall. It cannot be repaired, unless the oven is replaced at a big cost. I wont buy a Kenmore stove again, and wont recover to anybody. They are dangerous. There are a lot of people with the same complaint and Sears wont do anything about it.

Kenmore 3.6 cu. ft. HE Top-Load Washer Item# 26-26002 - I purchased this washer along with a whole new kitchen remodel June 2013. The computer on the washer is not working and has to be replaced and it is August 2014. I took out a 30 year old Maytag that was still working fine (never once repaired) and now a little over a year later I am hit with a bill that is close to what I could go buy a cheap washer with. I have gotten no satisfaction from the company. They say I have to have an order number so they can make sure that was purchased when I said. Well they found it when I called about the cracked glass top on the stove I got at the same time... which has been replaced twice already. These items should come with a longer warranty or they should at least back their products longer. Will never purchase or recommend Kenmore again.

We purchased this washer/dryer combo about 2 years ago and I have never been happy. MY clothes do not come out clean, only refreshed. The tank never fills with enough water to clean anything. The clothes get wet and flop around. I wash very small loads and I have to wash dishcloths and kitchen towels 2 or 3 times. This is not saving water. Every few weeks, I boil my dishcloths and kitchen on the stove to get them clean. I called for service and was told that this was the way this washer worked. I have been happy in the past with Kenmore appliances, but not this time. I am going to replace this 2 year old washer soon.

We are a family of six and this dishwasher fits all our dishes nicely. It has plenty of room for pots and pans, and the size goes great with our kitchen. Its tough on food residue and cleans great. It has a sleek appearance and its white so it goes perfectly with my range and other appliances. Also, its easy to wipe the outside clean which I love. Since Ive had this particular dishwasher for 8 years now I would definitely say it has a good value for this item, and its built to last. I would highly recommend this dishwasher.

I had a Kenmore Range MOD# 790.9611. It turned on while my child and I were not home and burned our apartment down to the stud, leaving us homeless and with absolutely nothing. Everything we had is gone and Kenmore doesnt want to take responsibility for their product. Mind you I have not used the stove in several months because we do not eat at home during the summer.

I purchased my piece of junk Kenmore range Model 790.9745 in 11/09. I have had a reoccurring issue since the glass exploding and shattering for no apparent reason. The glass in the door has slipped on 3 separate occasions, requiring a service call and time waiting for repairs. On 12/13/2012, the glass was replaced after exploding. On 3/2/2013, the glass was replaced after having slipped, revealing the hardware which was holding it in place. On 6/8/2013, the glass was replaced once again due to slipping and revealing the hardware. Today, I have phoned customer service once again and have received no satisfaction from the numerous phone conversations. Each time the supervisor has been less than helpful in their ability to satisfy the customer. I would think that Sears would be a bit more concerned about rectifying this situation and stand behind what they sell and repair this problem. I will not buy another thing from Sears and I will be sure to share my poor experience with Everyone I know! I am disgusted!

When opening oven door on Kenmore wall oven, handle fell off one side and glass door exploded into me. There were shards of glass everywhere, even countertops, and I had a small cut on my foot. The company is sending a repairman who we have to pay $250, despite all the phone calls and emails to corporate. We feel this was a defective piece of equipment, and seeing several other complaints of similar happenings, I feel we should not have to pay for service call or the repair/replacement. I will never buy Kenmore products again after this incident. And will do my best to spread the word.

Love my Kenmore gas range w/ convection oven. It has five burners and the one in the center I can use with a flat grill pan. I bake a lot and the oven works and holds the temp great. The oven has a self-clean cycle that works great.

Pizza oven (721.66993 011) still works but the microwave turntable will not turn and will not heat. I also bought a Kenmore washer and dryer from Sears and got the extended warranty. I was told after they have been to my house more than 4 times they could not give me a new set because they switched companies that handled their warranty work and they could only see where they have been to my house once. Its takes 4 times to be able to get a new set. So now Im stuck with a piece of junk that doesnt clean well or dry well.

I purchased a Kenmore gas range from Sears in July 2010 based on good experience with a previous Kenmore stove. From the start the Kenmore model 790 made loud booming noises when using the oven. No explosions just a noise that made me fearful of using the oven and definitely reduced my use of it. I returned from holiday vacation to a stove leaking gas with the eyes turned off. The local gas company conducted an inspection and declared the stove dangerous and unsafe. Now the stove sits in my kitchen with a red tag labeled dangerous. I do not plan to repair the four-year old stove. It will be replaced with a new stove and different manufacturer. Thank you to everyone for sharing your experience with Kenmore stoves.

Very cold and insulated well. I have this unit outdoors and it stays cold. I also like the rack height. The frost free feature is important to me and provides easy maintenance. You can fit a lot in this unit. The space is better than the chest freezer I replaced. I like how every area keeps the same temperature as well. Very nice unit. The outside is white which matches my other outdoor appliances. The style is also plain and easy to clean. I wanted something simple in design and not hard to keep up. This unit fits that need. For the price I was very happy. It blew me away compared to something I was looking at from Costco. I knew what I wanted and this fit that expectation but at first avoided it because I thought it might have been out of my price range.

This evening my elder father called to tell me that my mom set the oven to self-clean the day after Thanksgiving. She set the oven to self-clean and they went to bed. When they woke the next morning, the oven was very clean but now the stove top will not heat. I told them to unplug the thing until they can make sure that is not a hazard to operate. After all these complaints I am shocked to see so many customers having problems with the Kenmore ranges. My mother always bought Kenmore and when I bought my first and all homes since have been furnished with Kenmore and Whirlpool appliances. So sad to see that Sears is losing their special touch! Sears was always known for their customer service and customer satisfaction! Now with my parents thousands of miles away, I have to worry about their appliances blowing up.

I have an electric range from Kenmore. This stove/oven does a wonderful job with its cooking temps. Some electric stoves overheat and does not cook properly but Ive never had that issue with my Kenmore. I trust my stove to cook at the proper temps that I put it on. I really have no complaints as far as I can think of and Im happy with my ownership of Kenmore products.

Ive had this refrigerator for just over a year and the motor in the defrost went out, ice maker was not working correctly. Had to have Sears in 4 times to get it fixed. Once to diagnose the defrost motor not working. Second to put in the defrost motor and put in a rebuilt ice maker which did not work. The last time the tech put in a new ice maker and it is finally working fine. This refrigerator was manufactured by Frigidaire which is usually a very reliable brand. They are make appliances to be throw away just like other products. Sears service can be a problem getting someone in to service appliances. I finally had a couple of good tech who took care of refrigerator, dishwasher and stove. I will never buy another Sears product again.

Our experience with all Kenmore brand appliances is so great that Kenmore has proven to be one of our choice and go-to brands. We will and have recommended Kenmore and will continue to shop this brand for future needs. Kenmore offers very competitive pricing especially for such a high quality brand. This is a good advantage to save money especially with a large family to support. Having a large family we have always needed quite a bit of room to store our groceries. Our Kenmore refrigerator is big enough to fit what we need it to. The shelves being adjustable has also held significant advantages. Our Kenmore refrigerator is white inside and out and is so easy to keep clean or to wipe away with a gentle swipe when the inevitable spills have occurred.

Kenmore Elite model 790.9912 - We purchased this electric range from Sears almost 10 years ago. A few years back, the computer panel malfunctioned, and had to be replaced. Yesterday while making dinner, I had the oven set at 300 degrees, and I had one of the burners set at 5.5. Suddenly I heard a noise like a buzzing sound and then a pop, and the entire width of the back of the range went up in flames. I shut the burner off, and the fire went out. The oven got so hot that the door locked as it does in the self-cleaning mode, and we are unable to open it. The wall behind the range is charred, and the wiring behind the range is entirely burned. We called Sears and explained what happened. The sales representative said “Well it is almost ten years old.”

Purchased about 13 years ago so I realize things can start going wrong. This was my first (and last) glass top range as I had always wanted one. The heating is not stable. Of course being electric, it does turn itself on and off but that just regulates the temp of the element not your pan. Hard to keep clean especially if you spill something that has sugar in it, like bbq sauce, and it burns on as you still have to cook and burner takes a while to cool. I grew up using gas stove/oven at home. Upon moving around, I have come to get used to electric and when glass tops came along, I really wanted one. I am over it now. Ready to get gas back.

I purchased a Kenmore electric stove because in the past they were reliable and good. However now I wish I had kept my old stove. The oven takes 15 minutes to heat up to temperature. This is a waste of electricity. The temperature is not accurate - 360 degrees is 350 and the left side of the oven is hotter than the right side. The elements do not heat quickly - another waste of electricity. This is the last time I purchase Kenmore. It is frustrating and disappointing.

Please dont buy Kenmore, or from Sears. My stove caught on fire last night (11/21/14). Sears wont replace it they want me to pay for the repair....NOT, so here is what happened: We cut the oven to warm up then walked away. We heard a popping then a smell of wires burning. If we had not been in the kitchen this would be a different story. I call Sears, oh they want me to pay to have them come look at it, I dont think so! The earliest they can come to look at it is DECEMBER 2nd, Wait that is a week and a half! They told me that I cant get it replaced without me paying for it even if it is faulty wires. I AM SO MAD right now! If you have a Kenmore range in your house unplug it NOW, wishing I had never bought this thing!

The washer is by Kenmore and I have not had any repairs in the time I have owned the machine. This washer does the job. Happy with its performance. Clothes are clean. Not looking to replace. Will keep this washer for the long term. This washer is white and is a standard washer with a top load. It has an agitator and a lot of buttons. I use warm for my whites and cold for my colors. I looked at a lot of machines. It was not at the top or at the bottom of the range. I therefore felt I got good value.

My 40 stainless steel Elite Kenmore range/glass top looks impressive on first notice. But the design of the rim around the top has caused it to get really scratched in a short period of time (1 year). The drawer below the ovens is very flimsy. The digital oven works great. But the smaller analog ovens thermostat can never be relied on. I love the five burners on the cooktop, two of them having the capability to be two different sizes. I am unhappy with the stainless steel finish... Very hard to clean without streaks. Ive tried everything! I needed the 40 size because I live in a 1960s house that requires 40 stove, or a lot of cabinet rehab. I thought the price was too high. But there are very few ranges available in that size.

Large oven, heavy iron burner grills, timer, electronic lighters. Like it all except the push button controls for the oven etc. were not very sturdy and the mounts broke and had to re-enforce and remount the panel from the inside. Only one problem... That of the control panel mounting weakness. Have had a great experience with all my Kenmore products and see no reason not to continue buying them in the future when needed. The products are solid and the prices are very reasonable for a great dependable product.

Kenmore Electric Range Model 790. Do not purchase this product!! The past few years we have been dealing with this range going directly to broil while baking. Almost started a house fire when it first happened. After calling and writing Sears I have gotten no response, no help or assistance with repair and there has been no recall even though I have read hundreds of similar incidents. I have unplugged it, reset breaker, and it works for a week or two then does it again. I have learned to cook using broil but it gets too hot and code error F10 flashes. Absolute terrible product and I am disappointed in Sears for not helping people out and for safety reasons, getting these ranges out of peoples homes. No wonder Sears is all but going out of business. You cannot run a successful business selling this kind of appliance. PLEASE RECALL THIS ELECTRIC RANGE!!

We purchased our house from the original owner and have had nothing but problems with the oven racks. They never used the oven, so were unaware of the problem. It is Model # C 970-418232, Serial # NF70817966. We have had the racks fall in the middle of baking something NUMEROUS times, finally with one incidence causing a serious burn. This is unacceptable! I have read that others have had the same issues, but there have been no resolutions as of yet. It is not under warranty anymore, and I dont think that this should be called a warranty issue, but should be recalled due to the risk of VERY SERIOUS burns, items breaking when rack falls, etc!!! We should be able to SAFELY use ANY of our oven racks on ANY of the shelf levels! My mother has also been burned by our oven, and my children are forbidden to use it! Has ANYONE been compensated for this problem? Has Sears ever replaced any of the racks and given the owner the correct size? I look forward to hearing more about this from other owners, and would love to hear back from Sears! This is an EXTREMELY DANGEROUS problem that needs to be fixed!

I never had to make a repair after 15 years. I was able to sell it to someone else when I bought my new one. I would highly recommend it to a friend. The freezer was often full and had to be rearranged. We needed more freezer space but the fridge was large enough to accommodate everything. It was a 18 cu ft off white fridge with the freezer on top. It opened on the right with the fridge and freezer separate. In the fifteen years the paint never chipped and there were no scratches. As I stated. I was able to sell it when I decided to buy a new one. It was still in good working order and when I did a good cleaning it looked very nice.

Kenmore makes some really great products. I own a Kenmore microwave and I couldnt ask for better it has a wide range of options. It heats food up quickly and its quiet. I recommend a Kenmore microwave.

We bought top loading high efficiency low water washer SN C54547545 in July 2016. It took a lot longer to wash a load. This year 2019 it started acting strange. The clothes were too wet and I’d drain/spin again. Checked the troubleshooting section-nothing worked. My husband put clothes in dryer while I was out and the load was too heavy, causing my dryer to burn up. Now I’m looking to buy both. Washers should last longer than 3 years!

Are these just throw away stoves? Bought a house with Kenmore appliances. Lucky then we had home warranty. First the refrigerator kept freezing up, so warranty sent out Sears to fix it. It was the timer bad. Model 10657368702- 2009 model. Then the stove/oven start burning everything we baked. It was stuck on broil. Warranty company again sent out Sears, said control panel was bad. A week later same thing, Sears was sent back out, control panel, diff. service tech. Ok its working again. Keep in mind, we were starting on pies for the holidays when it chard them to a crisp. Now less than year later, its control panel again. Stuck on broil and smoke you out. Home warranty has now expired. This part is over a $100! No dreaming way. How much is this stove going to cost us in the end? Under home warranty I was paying a copay, now this. The model # is 79096018502. Its now sitting in our kitchen and useless. Gotta pay to haul this thing off now. Its not that far from new. Come on now, three control panels in less than a year at over $100 a pop. So, do we as a Kenmore customer keep buying this control panel at that $100 or would you risk buying another Kenmore and most likely have same expense happen again?

Purchased new Kenmore/LG dishwasher 3/2012. Within 90 days, the pump went out of it and dumped all the water out. The water ran into my bedroom located directly below the kitchen. Sears ordered a new pump but in the mean time I complained to the local store and they took it back. They ordered another dishwasher which I picked up 7/2012. I then hired a contractor 5/2013 to replace the drywall ceiling and re-stucco it. We removed all items from the room, but still ended up with drywall dust allover the house. Tonight 8/23/2013 my wife calls me at work to tell me the dishwasher did it again. My bedroom ceiling is like a shower. The water is dropping the tape seams and stucco. The new floor is covered in water as well. I want Sears to buyback the dishwasher and replace it with a Bosch, KitchenAid, or Whirlpool. (My wife wants to match the stainless from the refrigerator & stove as close as possible.) Hopefully Sears will stand behind this piece of junk. Dont buy a Kenmore dishwasher if it is built by LG. The model number is 66513973K010. Just dont buy anything LG makes....

My new Kenmore range with convection oven ha aint peeling off where the oven vents. They say its cosmetic, not covered under warranty. Suggestions?

Kenmore washer set is a very good product to use. Doesnt take long to get the job done and it has a great spin cycle. I would recommend it to any customer that is looking to purchase a new washer set. They were able to deliver it on time. It comes with a warranty and offers a great deal of thing. Its comes as new and out of 4 month I never encountered a problem with it so I would recommend this product to any customer that is looking to purchase. When it arrives it was brand new. It had no marks no scratches on i. All the knob were and still are working properly. It was very well in my price range of things to choose and I really like how they gave me a discount consider information I was the new customer. I would recommend this to anyone that is looking to buy it.

My Kenmore Self Cleaning Oven is just over 30 days old and recently used the self cleaning option. I used the 2 hour option since it was a minor splatter on the oven floor. After the cool down and the door released, I noticed two burn marks on the top of the oven door. I did everything the manual instructed including removing the grates, racks and wiping all services before starting the process. I called Sears and they said it was a cosmetic issue and is not covered under the warranty. I think its a door gasket problem, but they said no. I told the service dept I was very dissatisfied that they would not stand behind their product. All he said was Sorry.

It had a cycle that was extra powerful and extra hot for baking dishes to make sure they were fully cleaned. It was a little pricier than I initially wanted to have but I liked it. The look was black stainless steel and it had a lot of the features that I liked and wanted because the previous dishwasher I had was horrible and wouldnt clean anything. The Kenmore dishwasher was inexpensive and I cook a lot in the oven and get tired of having to soak the dishes prior to putting them in the dishwasher. The only main issue I want changed is that it has water spots at times after they are dried. I have to take them out after they are washed and dry them off or they will spot.

I purchased this Kenmore 94173 range online and so wish I did not. My old ovens control panel exploded and I decided to get a new oven versus repairing the old one. I do like the stove. My one issue is keeping the black glass top smudge/fingerprint free. The glass top is just about impossible to keep shiny. I have tried the recommended glass top cleaners by Kenmore and they have failed horribly. No matter which product I have tried, nothing so far has removed the smudges. Even though the glass top is clean, it looks terrible. Really disappointed that Kenmore does not realize the frustration of black glass tops. Now I place teapots and the like on the stove to hide Kenmores idiocy.
