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

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

My Kenmore washer and dryer lasted many years, were maintenance free and I was very happy with them. I have different brands now because choice was made due to budgetary limits and the Kenmore brand was too expensive.

Love my washer and dryer from Kenmore. It is a touch with plenty of cycles and gets my clothes very clean. The dryer is wonderful and has a fluff cycle at the end with is great. Love the spin cycle on the washer. It just about dries the clothes and I also love the fluff cycle at the end too. I got my washer and dryer in the color red which of course I do show everyone.

My Kenmore washer works great. It doesnt use too much water or power and has been very reliable for two or three years now. Would buy another one again someday whether its a washer, dryer or kitchen appliance.

These appliances came with the new house purchased over 10 years ago and I am still using both to this day without any problems. The washing machine is a top loader with the standard features and the dryer is a front loader electric dryer. Being an electric dryer I dont use it as much, only for large items such as sheets and hard to dry items especially in the winter time.

The washer was awesome. It was large enough to hold my blankets and bigger items where I didnt have to drag them to the laundromat anymore and got them cleaner than any other washer that I had ever owned. It wrung them out twice as good as any other machine I had owned so it meant less drying time. The washer was extremely dependable, reliable the whole time I owned it. It never let me down. It always got my clothes thoroughly and always wrung them out to the max. It was very elegant, very easy to keep clean and the overall appearance was sweet. They had a selection of colors so I could coordinate it so it didnt look tacky in my house. It was an exceptional value. I got both the washer and dryer for $2,000.00 with a 2-year warranty, which included delivery and set up.

I purchased a Kenmore French Door Refrigerator Model 74012. They no longer sell this model. My refrigerator ran fine for 2.5 years. Here are the events regarding my Kenmore Model 74012: 4/25/19 The refrigerator went to room temperature. Called Sears Warranty on 4/26/29. I lost over $600 in food and got reimbursed for $300 in food through Sears Master Protection Warranty. Getting food reimbursement was the easy part. Technician came 5 days later. Part came 3 days after Technician ordered it. 18 days from reporting the problem, I have a repairman replacing my compressor.5/14/19 Technician replaced the Compressor. The refrigerator & freezer never got cold (not even a little). Another tech was sent out and parts were ordered... 20 days later... 5/24/19 Technician replaced the Condenser and Filter Dryer. The fridge & freezer worked for 2 days. I lost food ($160) & got reimbursed for all of it. On 5/26, I was calling but it was before Memorial Day. I had to wait until 5/28 to call in the repair. Really bad timing. 6/7/19 Technician replaced the evaporator, refrigerator cabinet and filter dryer. Labor was over $900 and the warranty covered parts & labor. This was the cost of another refrigerator. Refrigerator will not get colder than 50 degrees.I was really upset. A family of 6 did not have a refrigerator for over 42 days. And we still do not have one. Sears agreed to buy me a new fridge. I am now shopping for a new one. Had I not had the extended warranty I would have had thousands of dollars into repairing this refrigerator and still had a broken refrigerator. So the warranty was worth it. Since I know that the inside of my refrigerator is LG, I will not buy LG or Kenmore as I look for another refrigerator. They lost my business. I got a Kenmore back in 1998 that lasted for 10 years. It was replaced by another Kenmore that lasted for 6 years. Followed by this one that lasted for 2.5 years. I see a trend.I have been without a full sized refrigerator for over 6 weeks. Sears is extremely slow to book a diagnostic and repair appointment. Repairmen missed their 4 hour window 2 out of 3 times. On the last appointment repairman showed up at 3:00 when the window was 10-2:00. I had to take time off from work multiple times losing precious vacation time. AND I STILL HAVE A NON-FUNCTIONING REFRIGERATOR! Regarding the refrigerator, it worked very well for 2.5 years. I liked the slide away shelves and big open bins in the doors. I will look for these features in my next one. I didnt like the 1 Full-Width, Adjustable Temperature Drawer because it would often stick and not push in well. I always had a fear that it was going to break. As I shopped around tonight for another refrigerator, it seems that this drawer still has its issues. It is cheaply made and does not slide open/close very well.The spill proof shelves leak. You spill something, expect to not get it cleaned very well unless you take all the shelving out. I found spills in places I did not know existed. The last repairman had to take all the shelving out to replace the refrigerator cabinet or evaporator. This exposed our spills. He did not seat the shelving and drawers back properly. None of the drawers shut very well and the drawers are crooked. Since my refrigerator is empty at the moment, I can honestly say that if I had food in there, the drawers would not open. It is running for the past week at 50 degrees. It wont get colder. So I am keeping some of my fruit and water in there. Since the shelving is not seated properly, the shelving is rubbing from the normal vibrations of the refrigerator making noise.The french doors have their issue too on this model. The repairman came out within a week after we purchased the refrigerator to adjust the doors and mentioned that it is best to close the left door then the right. Open the right and then the left. You can see how it closes & overlaps and looks like something that could break. Poor design. In my opinion and experience, I would say that Kenmores quality has dropped. Repair work has dropped in quality too. Sears warranty, although expensive, is worth the money.My final take on refrigerators is that Congress should be looking into the quality of appliances and how the consumer is being ripped off. As I read reviews of all Makes and Models it seems that Makers of refrigerators are making them disposable within a few years like our cell phones (comparison made since cell phones can cost just as much as some of the lower capacity refrigerators).

I want a new washer and dryer so bad. A big one. My husband said as soon as ours goes out I can. The only trouble is I have had mine for 24 years. I believe it will outlive me. Why did you make them so good? I am 70 years old. That isnt fair.

I have always used Kenmore washers and dryers as they come with great warranties and are a great product you can trust. I have had both gas and electric dryers. I had trouble going to public laundry facilities as the washers and dryers were never any good and sometimes had to rewash as they were not even clean, you will never have this problem with a Kenmore. You can choose from top loading or front loading and very stylish washers and dryers (even stainless steel), all sizes and capacities for all of your needs, you just cannot go wrong when you choose Kenmore. This is my choice of reliable washers and dryers and they are made by a trusted company which believes in their products and stands behind them which is something not everyone does nowadays.

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

I bought the washer dryer set a year ago and I have never had any problems and dont anticipate any problems. Most of the washers I have owned in the past my t-shirts have ended up with holes in them after owning the washer after a month. My idea of my current washer and dryer is they are the best so that I have owned. After a year I still dont have holes in my clothes from the washer or dryer. The machines are well built and there were many colors to choose from. They are sturdy and made to American quality. They are quiet operating and very energy efficient. The quality and workmanship of the machines are well worth the price. When you can wash your clothes without having to replace them before the clothes should need replacing.

Dryer has been dependable for years. Gets clothes dry in a reasonable amount of time and we have never had any issues with it. I would definitely buy a Kenmore again. Our Kenmore dryer has been completely reliable. We have not had one issue with it. Weve taken it on two cross country moves and it still works flawlessly. The appearance of our dryer is fine. Its not a showpiece but its pleasant enough. It is white and has clean lines, with blue accents on the dials. I am very happy with the value of our Kenmore dryer. We bought it starting out in our first house without a lot of money, but it has been dependable and we have not had any reason to upgrade even though we could now.

I have had my washer and dryer for about 18 years and knock on wood it has never give me any problems. It take a licking and keeps on kicking. I would recommend them to anyone. Mine are getting old and outdated but still does the job and I would buy that brand again. The appearance is not very pretty anymore, but they are in a washroom so that does not matter. What matters is that they are still after all these years still functional. I cant remember what I paid for the set 19 years ago but it was worth whatever it was. They have seen to my need and I do about 4 loads a week every week.

I owned an electric top loading Kenmore washing machine and an electric Kenmore dryer for 18 years. In that 18 years, I never experienced any problems with the washing machine. It always worked like a charm and I did laundry for 5 people, including a baby, in that washing machine for 4 of those 18 years. The only problem I ever had with the dryer was the cord had to be replaced after several years of use. There was also one incident where the dryer wasnt drying properly and I called the Kenmore service division to make an appointment for them to come out and repair my dryer. The dispatcher I talked to with Kenmore suggested that I check my dryer vent on the outside of my house to make sure it wasnt stopped up with a birds nest or something else. I checked the dryer vent and it had several dirt dobbers nests in it. When I cleaned out the dryer vent, the dryer went back to working perfectly and, thanks to their employee, I didnt have to pay Kenmore a repair bill. We had to move from the home we were renting into a small apartment that didnt have washer and dryer connections so we donated our 18 year old Kenmore washer and dryer, which were still working perfectly, to a non profit organization.My electric Kenmore washing machine was a top loading washer and the knobs were on the top of the washer behind the lid. The electric dryer had a regular door on the front of it and the knobs were on the top of the dryer towards the back. There was a large lint catcher on the top right hand side of the dryer. The main thing I loved about the Kenmore washer and dryer, as far as their appearance, is that they were made of heavy duty metal vs. plastic. I also liked that the mechanisms of the washer and dryer were simple mechanisms that didnt wear out and cost me hefty repair bills.The electric Kenmore washer and dryer were well worth every penny we paid for them. I used them extensively for 18 years and the only thing I ever had to pay in regards to a repair was a new cord for the dryer after several years of use. Having used them for 18 years, and they were still working perfectly, I would have to say that I definitely got my moneys worth out of them plus some.

We bought a Kenmore Connect washer and dryer almost 2 years ago. The washing machine is pure awful. Stains remain, odors continue even after washing. I would absolutely not advise this washing machine. Ive cleaned the drain compartment and the machine more often than recommended. These dirty clothes continue to come out of this waste of money washing machine. Ive tried different HE formulated detergents. No effect. Ive used the prewash and extra rinse cycles with the heavy duty cycle with no improvement. The flip-flop motion used to clean the clothes is a waste of electricity, water and the 2, yes, two-hour cycle. Weve replaced this useless washing machine with a Speed Queen washer. 25 minute long heavy duty cycle pumps out the truly clean clothes. Please do not waste your money on a Kenmore Connect, unless of course you like stains and stink on your clean clothes.

Kenmore washers and dryers exceeded my initial expectations lasting over twenty years! I have gotten my money’s worth with those purchases! However, I have found over the years of being a homemaker that purchasing one of their refrigerators is a totally different circumstance entirely and my main complaint is that their refrigerators should last longer than they do. Over the years I have bought two. The first house I bought the previous owners left theirs for me. Never got many years out of one and that in itself is very, very disappointing. Prices on the refrigerators were way too high. But what is even worse is the interest rate using the store’s credit card charges. I was in a bind as my older refrigerator broke unexpectedly after ten years. I am a senior citizen living on social security so this became a more difficult situation then for most! I did not like that there was no senior citizen discount offered and when all was said and done, it cost much more than I think the true value should have been! But I liked that opening the refrigerator was easy as believe it or not, some I find really need a good tug on the door and usually when an appliance is like that, it takes me a few good tries to pull a door open on it. I am not the weakest person but does someone need to be the strongest one in town to do that simple action with ease? And being a senior citizen, I cannot tell you how much that factor was and is so very much appreciated by me! It was quiet and performed well, has nice space inside for food storage and had the color I wanted to match other appliances in my kitchen. I am hoping my refrigerator serves me well!

Washer very easy to keep clothes, beautiful washing machine. I can have clean clothes now, fresh ones too. Like I always say dry clothes, its better than wet clothes. Its not really beautiful washing machine or dryer, but dont they offer use? I love to use them dryer and washer. I like to have dress clothes every day. Im satisfied.

Our Kenmore washer and dryer are quiet and reliable. We have been so satisfied with all of our Kenmore products that we have owned. They carry a great and dependable warranty and offer quick friendly service if needed. The service reps that delivered our appliances were friendly and appeared to be very knowledgeable on their products. They took their time to explain the operation of their product and answer any questions we had. Sears will be the first place we look for any household product we may need.

I purchased a Kenmore Elite front loading automatic washer model 796-4100. Its a washer and dryer in one. I purchased this one because there wasnt a way to install a vent for the dryer in the laundry room. I have owned Kenmore appliances my whole adult life. My parents only purchased Kenmore appliances. My washer broke in less than a year. It doesnt get overly used as its only my daughter and I using it. The machine had the drain pump replaced, 2 motherboards just to mention a few. It was torturous trying to get it repaired. Hours and hours spent on the phone. I wont ever purchase another Kenmore appliance. Sta

Purchase a kenmore washer and dryer in september 2012 from sears. Today august 17 noticed rust forming around the perimeter of the bleach dispenser. First amazed that this should happen to a kenmore. Then after reading similar messages on the web, disappointed that Kenmore has not done anything to correct the problem. And by disavowing any responsibility for the issue under warranty, by doing this I have the impression that they knew of this issue some time ago. I will try and correct the problem but like many others have found.... rust never really goes away. May be the last time I buy a Kenmore and products from whatever manufacturer actually makes the machine. There was a time, if in nothing else, you could trust a Kenmore.

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.

Washer (MODEL NO: 41740412702) is rusting in bleach container area, and now in washing machine basket. It is also rusting on the outside. Bought in 2010, now 5 years old. Cost for washer/dryer stack-able was $1258.42. Will never buy Kenmore again!

My washer/dryer has always worked and never gave me any problems, always gets the job done. Ive had it for at least 8 years. They are very good quality and last a long time. I shouldnt even be needing a new washer/dryer for the next couple years, even though Id had mine for 8+ years.

It washes all my clothes and keeps them smelling fresh for longer. It is also gentle on softer fabrics and doesnt cause intimates to fall apart. It is also very convenient and easy to use. It provides the best value for what its worth. The machine has been working for 2 years and has not had any serious malfunctions and works as if its brand new. It looks modern and new. Every time I have people over, people are always complimenting and talking about how good the washer looks in the room. Fits the house perfectly. Totally worth the price. I would not pay anything less for a better value. If I had the option to choose another dryer, I would still choose the same brand.

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

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

Had this basic washer and dryer almost 30 yrs, have done many things that should not be done to a machine, overloading, washing everything in the house more times than I can count, and they just keep on working.... My mechanical engineer father told me, the less things there are to go wrong, the less they will go wrong. I dont want some fancy annoying beeping machine, all it really needs to do is wash and dry. Wish more manufacturers made reliable products that last at least a generation!

Im happy with this machine, gets the job done and is good at it. I would purchase again if given the option. I would also recommend to family and friends. Has been very reliable, no hassles, breakdowns, no nothing. I havent had to have it repaired or replace. I can wash a load of laundry and know that my items are nice and clean. Very Proud of this purchase. Nice, clean, and sleek. Does not look outdated and fits my home decor perfectly. Best Purchase to date. I got a great deal of this washer and dryer set. The value is well worth the price. Having my own washer and dryer has saved me hundreds of dollars from going to laundromats. Very good purchased and well invested.

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.

I absolutely love it. It works great. I use it a couple of times a day and we havent had any issue with it so far. Some dryers tend to not dry as much when used a lot. Mine is still working great. The Kenmore dryer is also fast and keeps wrinkles out. It makes clothes soft and fluffy. It also doesnt get overheated and make clothes smell burnt. It has plenty of room for the bigger loads. I also loved the price. I couldnt find a better deal. It’s an energy saver, so now I dont have to worry about light bill jumping through the roof. The appearance is very plain and boring though. It needs some color maybe giving the option to choose for a color. That way you can match it up the decor in your home.

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

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...

I needed to replace my old Kenmore washer and dryer after many successful years of use---did research but not enough, apparently. I have never been so disappointed with a Sears product as with this washer. Unable to soak heavy hobby dirt overnight, I hate the auto lock feature, and the lack of enough water in tub. I have to use the double rinse and extra fill of water every time plus the heavy duty cycle. Powders like soap and oxy need to be dissolved in a tub before you use them or your clothing will come out with white powder patches. Clothes are often not clean because of the lack of water fill. I complained to the clerk at Sears who sold me the washer after just a couple weeks and he was rude and discounted all of my concerns. By the time I went back again after a few weeks, he said the time lapsed and the machine could not be returned. I really wish I had kept my old machine until the motor totally quit. I hate the electronic controls that turn on if you even wash the top or sometimes walk by the machine. I have never been so disappointed in a product as this before. The Sears official site kept telling me there was an error in my submission and booting me off, and I strongly suspect it is because the review was negative. I purchased the matching dryer and it is fine except for dirt that collects on the inside rims of the door with each load... I empty the lint screen but dirt still collects on the door. The washer also takes twice as long as any washer I have ever had, and I am 73 with a history of at least 5 washers in my life. I hope buyers will not make my mistake with the 600 series of Kenmore top loader washer machines. Thank you for reading.

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

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.

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

I bought the washer and dryer set with the pedestals when I had my house built 8 years ago and spent over $2,500. I will never, ever again buy such an expensive set and will never, ever again buy anything from Sears. The dryer went out last year (year 7) and had more error codes than I knew what to do with. The cost for a technician to come out and just look is approximately $300 and that cost only includes them coming out - nothing is yet fixed. So, I went on the internet and read that the problem I was having was likely a control board. I called Sears to get a new one (approximately $300) and was told (after I specifically asked) if I could return the board if it turned out not to be the problem. I was told that I could. The board they sent me was reconditioned (RECONDITIONED!) and didnt work either. I called Sears to get a return part and was told since it came from their overseas supplier, I could not return it. So, I spent a ridiculous amount of money for a simple dryer that doesnt last and then spent more ridiculous amounts of money trying to fix it only to learn that not only does Sears not stand behind their products, but they also dont stand by their return policy. I bought a new dryer through Home Depot -- a holiday sale and military discount provided me with a new dryer for UNDER $300. Now the washer is gone. No error messages, nothing. Ive learned not to call a technician and not to order replacement parts from Sears. Im simply buying a new washer, which will no doubt be much cheaper than trying to fix the joke that Sears put out. I highly recommend buying from another company (Sears cannot be trusted with the parts, service, or guarantees). They suckered me but good.

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

I have both washer and dryer. They last a long time, very well built. It gets your clothes cleaned and dried fast. I would highly recommend this brand. Very trustworthy. When I need to replace my washer or dryer I will buy from Kenmore.

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

Kenmore is and always has been a steady, reliable performer. It is American made and thats enough for me. I have used Kenmore products for over 50 years. Kenmore as solid as Sears is an accurate truism. The washing machine that I have is a great performer. If it was an employee, I would give it raises and top performance reviews year in and year out! Yes there are newer technology washers and dryers out there with all the bells and whistles and lights. Yet, they are very expensive and are usually not made in America. I will always opt for the steady consistent performer every time.

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

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

The product is an excellent washer and dryer. I purchased it on sale, the cost was wonderful. It is easy to use and holds decent amount of wash. The name speaks for itself. I have had other brands in the past, must always come back to this brand in particular. The appliance exceeded my expectations. The color matches my decor. The style is sleek and not big so it fits my laundry room space perfectly. The value is again as I previously stated outstanding. You cant ask for a better product for the price and quality of this appliance. I would definitely recommend to my fellow shoppers.

The washer and dryer were priced well. I have saved money on water bills and electric. They work efficiently. I trust the Kenmore brand over the competition.

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.

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.

I love this machine. This dryer is flexible to help me do everything I need it to do. The wrinkle guard feature is as good as an extra set of hands. There is nothing better than knowing that your garments are in the best of places to get dry. No matter what setting I use to get a variety of fabrics dry under the best of circumstances it drys my heavy jeans and towels to perfection. I can also rely on the machine to gently dry fine washables on gentle air, no heat cycles. My Kenmore appliance has brought us years of good service. And this machine has been with our family for a long time and it still looks like a modern dryer. I have no complaint about the wear and tear. It looks great and hides its age quite well. And I still find it to be quite energy efficient.

Best dryer Ive ever owned. The settings are very user friendly, and a large load of laundry can be dried in less than an hour. No issues with the settings or machine balance. The performance of this particular model is top of the line. Bulky and uneven loads dry quickly and completely without any issues. Model can hold large loads of laundry with no performance issues. This Kenmore dryer model has wonderful symmetry and looks pristine sitting amongst my other laundry appliances. Nice style with a lot of interior room, but doesnt take up a large amount of floor space. This dryers value is the best deal for its size and functionality. With the large amount of capacity for holding laundry, it pays for itself in comparison to purchase price versus an inconvenient laundromat in well under a years time.

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

We have purchased the Kenmore Elite in July 2011 at Sears. First, the clothes were washed okay. Then I started to notice that the clothes do not look clean and doesnt smell fresh. I decided to rinse them with my hands before putting them into a dryer. The results were astonishing! The water is dirty, soupy and brownish in color. I have to rinse clothes three to four times until the water gets clean. My elbows and shoulders started to ache.

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

Every member in my family is using this dryer and we all have the same feelings about this machine. Best dryer I have ever owned. My sister has the same, exact dryer and also loves it as much as I do. The reason that I purchased this dryer is because of the durability described in the manual and it definitely has not let me down. This dryer is very reliable. My clothes are always wrinkle and static free, and I do not have to iron everyday. It is very energy-efficient and economical. The appearance of my dryer is incredible, the dryer fits perfectly in the only space that I had available for it. It is very easy to clean and keep clean. The amount of money that was charged and that I paid for this dryer was very much worth the amount of money. I had to borrow money from my father to purchase this dryer and I am so glad that I did, because it was worth it.

Purchased a Kenmore Elite Washer & Dryer on Dec. 13, 2019. One week later I got water damage to my laundry room cabinets and drywall due to water leaking from the steam hose connected to the dryer. Still haven’t heard back from the Sears Insurance company and my laundry room smells like mildew and mold now. They think it’s the hose from the appliance? The washing machine is okay but started to make a funny noise when it starts and the speed cycle takes forever to finish. I was scared to keep these products even though I purchased a five year warranty.Due to all these problems in just a short time owning them we decided to return both items. “No Confidence” in these Kenmore appliances. Customer service department was a bit frustrating to deal with, dealing with water damage, the smell and not understanding what they were saying was not a good experience. I do not recommend these products! My previous 16 year old washer and dryer were Kenmore Elite. Quality really has gone down!☹️

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

We have had this dryer somewhere around a year or so and I have never had a problem with it. This dryer works great, it is easy to clean and it runs like a charm. It is a great dryer for the price and it does the job well. It is white or maybe an egg shell type color with blue or grayish knobs things. We like it a lot and it looks clean. Most people need a little help with basics these days and this dryer helps foot that bill. I would let a friend know about it sure.

Purchased a pair of washer and dryer that was on the lower cost level and within three years, both had stop working to the point that it made repair fiscally illogical. The motor went out on the washer, and drum bearing and surround seal went out as well as the element shorted.

Kenmore appliances always perform well and they have an excellent warranty. Never had an issue. You cannot go wrong with a Kenmore washer or dryer or any other plans for that matter. I have found Kenmore appliances to be extremely durable and reliable. I have had my Kenmore vacuum cleaner for over 15 years and its still going which is why I didnt hesitate to get a Kenmore washer. There is nothing different about the appearance of the Kenmore. What is different is the quality the warranty and the durability of the product. You will not be disappointed. The value and the quality of Kenmore is well worth the price. You cannot go wrong for something that is as reliable and durable as a Kenmore.

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

I love the steam freshen up option available with my Kenmore Elite dryer. The only downside to this dryer and every dryer I have ever owned is being able to clean the lint area. The mesh basket is easy enough to clean but the area below is impossible to completely clean.

I really like the dryers performance. It works great. Its awesome. Its very helpful a lot. I like the way my clothes dry when I take them out. They feel really great. Its awesome. This dryer is the best and I love it so much. My dryer is very reliable. It dries my clothes very well and I like it a lot. I like the way my clothes come out nice and fresh. I also like my washer the way it washes my clothes to be honest. I love the appearance of my dryer. Its really great. Im glad that I bought it. Its a lifesaver. Great value to be honest... Its worth all the money I spend on it. I love it so much. I like using it a lot.

Kenmore is great. Ive known them for a long time and their products have never disappointed me. Theyre like an extended family. Both my washer and dryer are a Kenmore and I wouldnt have it any other way. Id strongly recommend.

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

I loved my Kenmore Elite washer at first, but started having problems within the first year. It got out of balance and my once whisper quiet washer became much louder. Then, it started smelling sour - even when I started leaving the door open after washes so it would dry out. Now, its filling up with water between washes and I have to spin and drain each time before using it to empty out the water. Also, most times, the clothes are too damp after the wash cycle and then take too long to dry. They used to be practically dry before I put them in the dryer. To be fair, Ive probably had this washer for 6 or so years, but Ive gotten less and less happy as each year goes by.

It always seemed to work really well in keeping my clothes feeling and smelling clean. Never had issues with either washer or dryer. Only reason we dont have them anymore is because we finally decided to upgrade to a newer model. Very easy to keep clean as well. I never had an issue with it breaking down or having to fix any parts to it. Always seemed to get the job done when I needed it to and I do an average of at least 7 loads per week so I never once had a problem with either washer or dryer. It was very simple but thats what I most loved about them. Most of the newer washers and dryer have all these different buttons for certain washes and it can get confusing. For the price that I paid for both the washer and dryer I feel the value was amazing. Couldnt have really asked for a better combo for the price and it definitely was worth buying the set together.

Washer continues to stop because its unbalanced. Takes all day to wash one load and end up having to hang in my shower to dry enough to put in dryer. Service says nothing wrong but I can pay for repair to come out and look at it. They know this is a problem with these machines. Plenty of complaint.

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.

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.

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

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

We bought this replace our Whirlpool front load dryer and found that it was a much better quality. It took much less time to dry our clothes and never scorched. It takes less than half the time of my previous dryer and after a year we havent had a single maintenance issue. It is heavy duty drying for many towels and jeans but has never damaged a delicate item as well. Its a great fit for our smaller sized washroom. Lint is easy access and the controls are very easy to understand and set. The door is easy open when hands are filled. Considering you must pay more for better quality this dryer was a great buy. We didnt overpay and still have the same performance of much pricier options. Definitely a great purchase.

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.

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

I 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.

Had both a washer and a dryer awhile ago. They both worked fine and lasted pretty long. When we had to buy ones we bought different brands because they were less expensive and they work just as good. Weve had a lot of Kenmore products over the years.

This dryer is great. Super easy to use and very simple. Its nothing fancy and gets the job done and gets my clothes dry. The dryer is very quiet as well, which means I can run it at night without disturbing anyone. It can hold a large amount of towels as well as queen sized sheets at the same time. I go through a lot of towels, so knowing that I can dry them all at the same time and not have to divide it up into two loads is the best. The appearance is great. Its white and matches my washer. It blends in with the other appliances that I have and fits perfectly with the theme of my apartment. The value is great. I definitely believe that it is worth the price that I paid for it. I have had it for a few years and it is still going strong.

Does what it says it will do, gets the clothes clean and doesnt require special detergent. Did not need any repairs. Will take a large enough load to wash what I need it to wash. I have a family of 4 and typically do 3 loads of laundry a week. It will comfortably accommodate a full-size comforter. Classic styling in white. Washer and dryer match, but if I needed to replace one or the other, I wouldnt have to buy them both again. Easy to clean surfaces. Price paid for this washer and dryer is a fair price based on what it does and what I need it to do. You can buy more expensive models that have advanced features for more money. This one is pretty basic.

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.

Both worked fine for over 10 years. The most that I had to spend for repairs was a $5.00 V Belt for the washing machine. As far as the dryer is concerned I never had to repair anything once I plugged it in.

I always trust the Kenmore name to deliver a quality product for a good value with a good reputation. I would recommend this dryer to anyone who wants a reliable appliance. This dryer is big enough to hold a large load of laundry. I like the fact that we have had it for many years and its been reliable. It has a streamlined look. This appliance will fit in with any decor. It doesnt stand out but it blends in well. Its a good addition to any laundry room. This appliance does what its supposed to do and it does so at a good price.

Kenmore 700S Washer - I was so excited to get this new washer and dryer, as Ive had great experience in the past with this brand. The top load with no agitator has great capacity for my larger loads, including sheets and blankets. The problem is this... My stuff is NOT getting clean. Every time I pull stuff out it has white residue all over it and I have to rewash it. Im beyond frustrated! Makes me want to go back to a front loader I guess. The dryer is great.

I purchased Kenmore Oasis washer in 2007. In 2010, the washer began leaking from bottom. My laundry floor never got wet in front of the washer, so I didnt know there was a leak. The washer is on the second story. It was evidently a slow leak. I started smelling a musty smell in my kitchen (directly under the laundry room). Then, I started noticing brown spots on the ceiling in the kitchen. We just had a major snow storm, so I thought the roof had leaked from ice build up. I called the insurance company. They repaired and paid for the damage even though they could not find a roof leak. They cut holes in the ceiling and used huge fans to dry out the ceiling. A few months later, I started noticing a musty smell again and noticed more brown spots in ceiling. I called the insurance company again. This time, we decided to check the bottom of the washer. We found the floor was rotted under the washer. The insurance company had to again do the repair work on the ceiling, dry it out and repair the damaged floor in the laundry room. There was around $9000 damage for the 2 repair jobs that insurance paid for. Sears fixed the washer and found a defective part. The insurance company took the part. They said they were going to file a claim against Sears, because the part was defective and the machine was only three years old. When the repair work was done, I had the repairman put a pan under the washer in case I ever had another leak. Last night, I noticed that the pan is full of water. I called Sears and they said I would have to pay for the service call and all parts. It has just been a year and 3 months since I had the same problem. I explained to the representative that I cant keep paying for repair on the same problem on a washer that is only 4 years old. I asked if there were any recalls. He said he did not know but the repairman might know. This is unacceptable service. I have bought Kenmore products for years and always thought Sears would stand behind their product. I wont buy anything else from Sears. I bought my daughter a washer and dryer from Sears 3 months ago. If I had to do it over, I would have bought it from Lowes.

I did not care for the Kenmore washer, and dryer. It only last me two years. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND Kenmore to any of my friends, and family. The quality is not there. The washer machine did not wash properly, and Dryer never dried the clothes.

My washer is a top loader and completely white, same with the dryer, but with different settings. The washer for heavy or light loads, the dryer for regular or delicate. The value was average but it was worth it for the quality of the product. It takes about 15 minutes to wash and the clothes come out smelling fresh and clean. It works very well, the same with the dryer, and helps keep the colors bright and the whites white.

It worked well. High efficiency, fairly quiet and durable. It lasted a long time with little repair needed. That is what I have for today. We had to replace a part but I dont remember which one it was. It was very reliable. You will like it. Everyone should get one and be happy with it. It was a nice white color, very appealing and clean looking and it had aggressive styling, better than most boxy washer and dryer. Its a freaking dryer. Very good value. We paid cash and received a discount. We didnt do financing because we dont want to be locked into a payment plan when we dont need to.

Weve had our Kenmore washer and dryer for 20 years or more and have been completely satisfied with them. The washer has had to be repaired occasionally, but its never been very expensive - much better to repair it than having to buy a new one.

Never had service issues with washer or dryer and operating system was good until I had a flood in basement that ruined the motors and they could not be repaired. I replaced them with Kenmore appliances again.

I own the unit that is the washer and the dryer stacked on top (It is all one piece). The washer becomes unbalanced frequently and shakes the whole room. I have to stop it and move the clothing around until I get it balanced. The clothes come out of the dryer very wrinkled. I have tried all different settings, fabric softener and things that you can put in the dryer; but the clothes are still very wrinkled and have to be ironed. I wish I had not bought this appliance.

The Kenmore washer and dryer were both very good machines. After 12 years they both went out washer go out first. A week later the dryer went next. For a family of seven I have to say they were the best so far and would stick to the brand.

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

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.

Loved the dryer, very fast - I can have dry clothes in 20 minutes. Also the wrinkle free setting is amazing - best part about it. Fits in a small space and works amazingly you should get it. I have had this machine for 4 years now. Had no one to come and repair the machine. Amazing product. It has not broken down or given up on me even when I have family over and do 10+ loads back to back. It looks great and it works great. The size of it is also great. It is also a great buck for space if you live in a small house - the space is amazing. The size and appended are great. It looks amazing. The money was worth what I got - it was a shiny nickel. I had a dryer before that was a couple years old and would always break down. I spent more repair that stupid thing than buy this awesome dryer.

I have owned my Kenmore washer and dryer for 8 years now and absolutely love them. I have had no issues at all and both washer and dryer machines are very efficient. Im looking forward to buying another set soon and we will absolutely stay with the Kenmore brand.

Easy to use and efficient. Dries clothes effectively and is cost efficient. Great product. I would recommend buying this dryer to anyone in need of a good quality product. Cut on every time I need it and always dries clothes in a reasonable amount of time. Can handle large loads of clothes at the time. Looks like any other dryer that I have owned. White with blue numbers. Paint has held up good and is dual vented so you can vent through the floor. Cost about the same as other dryers but seems to be more energy efficient. Electric bill is cheaper after purchasing this dryer.

The dryer has lasted a long time. We like the quality and durability. We have a family of 6 and go through lots of laundry every week. The dryer occasionally makes a high-pitched squealing but it comes and goes and does not affect usage.

We purchased a Kenmore Fridge #79576209901 and have had nothing but problems. The freezer is constantly icing up causing loud fan noise which requires being defrosted with a hair dryer. Now the fridge compartment is not cooling because the fan is not staying on long enough to cool. I have replaced the defrosting element and Defrost Thermostat and now trying to replace the Electronic Control Board. The fan does come on but only stays on for a few seconds. I have read nothing but bad reviews from people with the same issues about this Kenmore product and will never buy another Kenmore appliance.

The Kenmore washer and dryer performed beyond my expectation -- they were cleaned thoroughly so that a second washing/drying was not necessary. These appliances were top-quality in every regard. Highly recommend them both. Reliability once again exceeded my expectations. Clothes were laundered consistently load after load. It was not necessary to call for repairment to fix anything. The appearance of these appliances was very attractive and appealing. Both looked very modern, and the color finish was top quality. Visually, everything was orderly and attractive. The perceived value of these appliances is that you are getting more than your moneys worth -- quality laundering for an overall low price.

When I moved into my house the Kenmore dryer had some years on it. The dryer is still performing well. I would recommend Kenmore products as one of the best out there on the market. It keeps on going drying clothes year after year with no complaints. Kenmore is known for their reliability or to say you get your money worth. It gives the Maytag guy a run for the money. Its yesterdays style and pretty basic in its look. I find it just fine for my taste as long as it gets the job done. Some folks like basic and some like the real high tech. The beauty is in the eye of the beholder. When its all said and done Kenmore give you a bang for your buck. The builders and engineers were thoughtful in the design and assembly to add value.

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.
