After replacing my Kenmore Elite slide in oven/stove because it was a lemon with too many issues to enumerate, I foolishly choose the next generation thinking it was improved. This stove cannot maintain a temperature for more than 10 minutes before it begins a preheat function and it begins to try to come to temp by firing up the top and/or bottom heating elements effectively ruining any delicate baked goods like cookies or cakes. I will never ever buy a Kenmore product again. In addition even though they market a five element stove top, if you have 2 elements on high and the oven on, the entire unit blows the breakers and fuses (and it is not our wiring/breakers that are malfunctioning). Worst product ever!

On 1-28-18 we bought a NEW Kenmore Elite Convection Oven with Warmer Drawer. also bought the Warranty Protection. Total sale $2,084.43. First one came damaged. March 2018 received the second one. Good shape, but the delivery guys left clear tape on the inside and left the oven on. When I opened the door the gasket pull off the oven. Took 2 service call to get one installed right. Glass Top is a pain in the butt to clean. You have to use Kenmore Cleaner. Nothing Else Works. Convection (Double Fan) is horrible. Bakes Terrible. No matter how much I try either things are way overdone or doughy in the middle. I hate it. I have had a convection oven for 17 years and I have loved every minute of it. Used convection at all time. Not with this oven! Its is just beyond me how it is so terrible. Sears repair guys came 5 times so far. Now the bottom drawer is rubbing on the underside of the oven where the heating element is. When the oven heats it is expanding the metal under the oven. Now they tell me it will be a Major Rebuild. I was told my a Warranty Supervisor (Alisha) that if the tech came out and confirmed that the problem was indeed what I was saying I would be issued a refund ticket for a new or different oven. Well now they (Milly a different Supervisor) are saying that in order to issue that the oven will have to go under the same repair 4 times in order for that to happen! So 2 repair guys will be coming this month and it will take 3+ hours to repair a defective oven at the cost of about $400.00. The repair guy said he has never done this before so he is bringing another guy with him. So yet another day interrupted by a Sears Repairman that should not even be repairing this oven. We should be able to return it for a full refund or an exchange. Oh and the repair guy first attempted to fix the drawer by bending the sides with a block of wood. Now the drawer is bent and the issue was never the drawer, but the bottom element causing the oven to warp downward against the drawer. It is worse than before he came! When the oven cools it pops back up. It is a factory defect and we should not be treated this way! I stopped using the convection after one repair guy reset it over 35 degrees upward. My cookies were burnt in 2.5 minutes and doughy in the middle. I reset it back to factory temp and gave up. The oven bakes fine at reg bake, but the convection part of it sucks! I have spent hours on the phone with Sears Warranty. I have gone through things like, We cant find your information, You didnt buy a new oven, lost information, complaints not being documented after they say they are writing it down on our account. Either they lie about their names or the next person lies about now knowing another Supervisor. I request a Supervisor and they stall and keep asking me how they can help me. Oh and if you call Sears Warranty and get a gal named Kathleen, just hang up and call again until you get a different person. She is the worst. She cant find anything. She cant type even your number in right. I have dealt with her enough to know just to hang up. If you tick her off shell say she is transferring you, but youll be disconnected.We are now considering loading up our oven on a dolly and taking it back to the Sears Showroom with all the receipts and demanding a refund. Wish us luck. DONT BUY FROM SEARS!!! We have been Sears customers since 1976 and loved them. Now they are the worst company ever! Customers are NOT important to them and neither is keeping their word! Warranty Persons Names to take note of: Kathleen, Milly and Alisha (who now doesnt exist according to Milly).

Kenmore Model 790.92202014 Oven Control Meltdown - I bought this range in early 2011 as an upgrade to my old Whirlpool range. Just shortly after it went out of warranty, the oven control unit failed. I called a repairman and a new one was ordered and replaced by him. Less than a year later, the unit failed again, so I sent the defective unit back to the provider and they sent me a replacement. This lasted less than a year again until 3-2013, only this time it blew the breaker (it never had done that before). Upon removing the back cover, I was horrified to find the oven plug that plugs into the control unit melted! I only can say Im glad it didnt start a fire. Im writing this complaint to warn people of a possible fire hazard. Im junking this range.

Works very fast and gets clothes very clean provided you use the right soap. Made sure that the lines are connected correctly. This was an item I bought on eBay and found that it was worth the price. Bought it bundled with a dryer. Cleans my items every time without fail. Only became unreliable when the top started to rust so I called the washer repair guy and asked to have the rust taken off. Instead they replaced the entire top of the washer. Appearance remained great until the rust showed up. The rust made the top of the dryer get dark and brown and strange. The appearance fell apart at that point. It was strange to see my clothes not look so nice at that point. It was very cheap, only a few hundred dollars so I was okay with the item totally falling apart when it did despite the fact that it was inconvenient. The value for me was perceived in the amount of money that I ultimately did not spend.

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.

The stove (2011 Kenmore Elite white double oven stove) was purchased in 8/2011. The puppet oven no longer heats up quickly and takes 45-60 minutes to heat to the desired temperature. Unfortunately, the model number has worn off, and Sears cannot give me a correct model for the double, not single, oven from their records. Therefore, the repair guy left without having done anything except charging $99.00 for the house call. I guess I am going to have to use the one oven that works until it doesn’t. VERY DISAPPOINTED.

I have been using this product for over a year now and it has been working very efficiently. When I load the dishes, the washer removes all food and stains in minutes and makes the dishes like plates, spoons and even big vessels absolutely clean. It states that it removes 99.99% bacteria while washing them. The dishes do not feel wet when I remove them. They are very dry and I do not need to wipe them with a cloth. It is larger in capacity than my previous dishwasher even though it looks smaller. There is plenty of room on the top rack for tall glassware and the top tray lifts and lowers for bigger pots. The sleek, nondescript stainless steel finish allows it to go with pretty much any brand of appliance that you may have in the rest of the kitchen. The top buttons are aesthetically pleasing. It looks good in my kitchen. This dishwasher was an excellent value and beat all other dishwashers in its price range. It has great price and it looks like it should have cost more.

Washer lasted for ten years as well as the matching dryer. We just replaced because of fire in dryer and gasket and drum broke in washer which resolved in a leak. Washed and dried clothes. Dryer had to be put in twice to actually dry the clothes. Washer had a smell if I didnt wash every day, so I bought a Tide detergent that cleans front end loaders and that seemed to help. They were a beautiful color of burnt orange. They never got scratched and looked as new as when I purchased when they are taken away 10 yrs later. They were a good value lasted for 10 yrs only fixed once. They washed 15 towels easily. Dryer just didnt dry as well.

I love the pretty color, it matches my other kitchen appliances perfectly. Its very nice and I like the way they made the switches and buttons on it. I love the size too cause it holds all my dishes perfectly with plenty of space. I love the way its made all my dishes fit in each little space just right. I really love the way the Kenmore washes. My dishes always come out really clean Spot free. I would recommend this dishwasher to others. Great buy. It was in my price range and something that I could afford. It was very fairly priced and affordable. I really love it. Thank you Kenmore.

I purchased an expensive Kenmore Elite electric stove/oven in 2009 and have had many problems and have spent much money on repairs. Until recently I was unaware of the numerous complaints and lawsuits filed with similar issues. My top burner does not turn off, but remains on and on high. The burner has also turned on by itself when not being used. I have called with my concern for the safety of my family as I believe this to be a fire hazard. I believe this appliance should be recalled, but I have been told that my appliance does not have the model # of the ones that are recalled. We are waiting for another service member but in the meantime worry about the hazard this poses to my family! Sears has offered no help or concern as they believe my appliance is not one of the many recalled. I fear for the safety of my home and family.

Purchased a replacement Kenmore model 79094192310 convection range in January 2015. In December 2015, oven heat went wild and would not turn off until I turned off breaker. Called service since still under one year warranty. Girl assured me it was a bad heat probe, even though I told her I was sure it was a blown controller. Delaying Christmas baking waiting a week on scheduled tech and probe. Of course, tech arrives and assures me the controller is bad. Although his computer said he had the part on his truck, he did not and ordered replacement scheduled for yet another week later. Totally unacceptable. I then ordered the part online from another supplier with one-day shipment. Paid for the part myself. I will install myself. Tech assured me the range was made by Frigidaire, however, part supplier told me this model is made by Electrolux. Whatever. Poor quality. Will never buy Kenmore again. BUYER BEWARE!

I had the original Maytag Gemini double oven range. I have now had the Kenmore Elite Double Oven Range for 2+ years. The new range is far superior. Of course the double ovens being the same size is a great help. Overall, the technology of the Kenmore range is fabulous. I have one main concern, though.... why dont they poll people that own these expensive appliances and ask us what features we want, need or desire? The timer on this range drives me INSANE! Its non-stop, and could seriously wake the dead. I know there is no way to make my second need happen, but, the bottom oven opens onto the floor..... very hard to lift something heavy in and out. Overall, though, this range is far superior to the Gemini.

Amazing. The dishes came out very clean and no water spots. Even takes off caked on food. Very fast washing and quiet. I would recommend to anyone who needs a new one. Compact but very roomy inside. It fit well in my kitchen and my kitchen is definitely on the smaller side. I have dinner parties often and it can hold all of the dishes. The washer is beautiful. Water spots dont stick and fingerprints are easily wiped off with a wet rag. I prefer the black because it looks sleek and fits in with the kitchen. It was a great price. I am always looking for a bargain and after comparing models and prices this one was the best option and easily within my price range.

My glass top oven is really and has never given a problem since I have owned it. It the best stove and greatly recommended it. I love the double burner so I can go from small to large cooking for dinner.

We had our Kenmore electric range for only 3 years when the oven temperature broke. After getting a technician to replace the sensor probe, we learned the entire electronic control board needed to be replaced as the oven continued to overheat. The cost of replacing this part was too expensive so after just 3 years we need to buy a new range. I WILL NEVER buy a Kenmore product again.

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.

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 purchased Kenmore appliances since 1962. Washer, Dryer, dishwasher, range, microwave and even an electric can opener. I have complained loudly and often about this washing machine. I have contacted the Sears store where I purchased a washer & dryer in August 2012. The design of this machine is unbelievable and I am far from satisfied. This machine requires that one put the clothes and detergent and/or bleach in with the clothes. The machine immediately locks and fills with about a quart of water. Meanwhile, the clothes are setting in strong soapy water or bleach for over a minute. Subsequently, it results in spotted and ruined clothing, towels, sheets, etc. In addition, you can only wash clothes in the delicate cycle, to prevent ripping and shredding of laundry. Once the cycle is finished, one must go to the rinse/spin cycle in order to add Downy. This wastes water.Finally, I was directed to Repair Service where the Rep told me that the cost of a one year warranty was $80.00. She said that I only had to pay her $49.99 at that time and to give a check to the repairman for the additional $30.01 on the day of service. I thought it odd that she would not allow me to pay the entire $80.00 while on the phone but went along with it anyway. I was in TOTAL SHOCK when the repairman told me that I had to write him a check for $80.00. I explained to him what the Warranty Rep had told me and he said that the Warranty was $49.99 per month with an $80.00 deductible each visit. Who in his or her right mind would pay $599.88 for a contract on a washing machine? One could purchase a top of the line washer for this amount.SEARS IS GOING OUT OF BUSINESS AS A RESULT OF POOR SALES (I WONDER WHY). Do not make any purchase from Sears because the motto on the doors of each store say, Satisfaction guaranteed or your money back is not worth the ink that it was stamped on with! Sears has promised to refund me $49.99+$80.00+$30.00 gift card. This paltry sum does not even begin to reimburse me for all of the discolors clothes, towels, blankets and all of the discolored clothes that have been ruined by this machine! My attorney (Consumer Affairs attorney) is filing a lawsuit in federal court. If anyone else wants to join in on this lawsuit, you may e-mail me! Do not waste your time trying to deal with corporate because they will do nothing to help you. I am 71 years old and was not told of the bad features on this machine.

I bought this over the range microwave from Sears a couple of years ago. I thought that 1000 watts would be plenty. However most food that you buy for the microwave directions, usually state 1100 watt ovens. The food doesnt seem to stay hot as long as food cooked on the range or in a conventional oven.

We purchased a Kenmore range less than 1 year ago, and the seal on the glass on the front of the range leaked grease in between the glass panels. The Sears repairman took it apart and cleaned it. But he told us that this would happen again and that there was nothing that they could do. A Kenmore rep told me the same thing happened to his to, but he just put a towel in front of his stove so it would not look so bad. So I guess I will put a towel in front of my new Kenmore range so it doesnt look so bad with my new Kenmore Elite fridge, Kenmore Elite dishwasher and Kenmore Elite microwave.

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.

I remodeled my kitchen (March 2015) and wanted to have reliable appliances that had nice features and looked nice. I purchased a Refrigerator (4674033), stove (2275233), dishwasher (2212773) and over the range microwave (2280333). $6000 worth of appliances... So far the dishwasher had a defect in the basin that leaked and destroyed my new floor. The Refrigerator frosted over and was out of commission for 2 weeks waiting for a new circuit board for a known issue. And now the gasket on the door to my stove is peeling off. These appliances were supposed to be top of the line Kenmore Elite. They have been nothing but a headache and who knows what is in store in the future.

After the second self clean on our Kenmore convection oven that we paid 1799.00 21/2 years ago the paint under the top and the door is now rusted because the paint melted from the self cleaning. Also the button for the warming over turned brown. I will never buy a Kenmore oven again that was an expensive lesson.

I own a Kenmore Range Model # 790.97453804. Its about 5 years old. Last night just after dinner the glass on the front of the door exploded! Shattering into pieces all over our kitchen for no apparent reason. I contacted two numbers, one for Sears, and one for Kenmore. Neither customer service person would do anything to listen to my problem or what happened. Like little programmed robots they repeated over and over it is out of warranty and they will send a technician out to assess what needs to be fixed at which time I can pay them for the repairs plus labor or pay for the service call. I decided to go online and order the parts myself. During the course of conversation with the repair specialist I find out: 1) This is a known issue. 2) The stove was manufactured by Frigidaire. 3) Its an issue with insulation in the door frame (part #7 on the diagram of the door). 4) The manufacturer recommends you replace it every 18 months. To which I responded, and how are we supposed to know that? Technician responded I am the parts specialist and we have the resources from the manufacturer. Its extremely sad that something as dangerous as this can continue and nobody is doing anything about the defective product.

Reasonable amount of time for cycle to be completed, clothes never came out ruin in any way, machine used a fair amount of water, but never exceed amount. Have use my Kenmore for years and have not had a problem yet, no problem of any kind, no dial slipping, no buttons sticking, no nothing. Received the machine I picked out without any dents or scratching marks on it. Same color all around, no fading. My Kenmore machine was not the cheapest but it was not the most expensive one either. It was the middle of the price range that I wanted to spend and I received everything I wanted on the machine.

My 2005 Kenmore Electric Range (model 790.96619401 Serial No. VF45126081) caught fire this afternoon. Thankfully, my husband and I were present, as were my FIVE children. We were left shaken to say the least! I was preheating my oven when I heard a crackling sound. Suddenly, I saw a spark that quickly turned to flames shooting from behind the control panel. We were able to pull the appliance from the wall and unplug it, at which point the flames died out. There was no damage in or around the electrical socket and the damage to my wall was DIRECTLY behind the vent where the flames came from. I am disturbed to see how many others have had similar experiences with Kenmore appliances.Sears has been little to no help in resolving this matter. It took 5 associates before someone even took an incident report! I was told they could send a technician for repairs at my expense, since I am no longer under warranty! This is not even the 1st issue I have had with this company. Six months after I purchased my $1500 refrigerator, there was a recall for chance of fire! PLEASE BEWARE! DO NOT BUY SEARS OR KENMORE!!!

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 bought back in 2005 a refrigerator, microwave, dishwasher and oven from Sears. All Kenmore. Well lets see. The refrigerator starting rusting on the outside in about 5 yrs. then the microwave handle broke in about 6 yrs. and the dishwasher panel on the bottom all the paint flaked off and now the oven that I have hardly used has a hole in the inside of the oven... Its a flippin crack. Rust and more rust where the racks slide... I will never purchase anything from Sears again... This is junk...

We purchased a new Kenmore electric range. Within 4 years, the oven box had expanded from the oven heat so that the oven racks no longer fit but fall out of the grooves. When I contacted Sears, they refused to accept responsibility but said they could supply racks that fit at $106.00 + tax and shipping each. I ordered the racks, but they are the same size as the original and Sears said that they cannot help me. I am not alone. Many other consumers have had this same experience. This should never happen. Sears should recall these stoves due to the safety factor alone or at the least, provide wider racks even if we must pay for them to address the problem. I will never purchase another Sears appliance.

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.

My wife and I have been faithful Kenmore customers for 15 years (as were both of our parents) UNTIL NOW. Moving into our new home 7 years ago, we bought a top of the line, matching Kenmore Elite HE4 washer and dryer. They were more expensive than the competition, but looked great and had amazing features.The dryer had a recurring issue that took 4 service visits and approx. $500 in repairs. We thought, Must have got a rare lemon. But in December, the washer stopped mid-cycle with an ERROR F6. As good customers, we called Kenmore service and a repair technician came out to fix it. He switched out the Control Board. Next day, the washer stopped again, ERROR F6. A second repairman came out and replaced the Control Board Wire Harness. Two weeks later the washer stopped again and repairman came out to explain how we needed a Motor Control Board and new motor. THIS HAS HAPPENED SIX TIMES!!! And the washer is still not fixed.We were convinced early on that we should purchase a service protection plan from Kenmore and if they couldnt fix it, Kenmore would replace it. But as of today, they want to send out a SEVENTH service repairman to try to fix the issue. My wife and I have been on the customer service hotline for 3-4 hours collectively, and had to take off from work for six days and rearrange our schedule to accommodate Kenmores technicians on six different days (with six different technicians) with no resolution. Kenmore Customer Service continues to give us the runaround and will not replace the washer as promised through the service agreement, nor will they give us a managers name to resolve the issue. This has been the most infuriating experience of our lives. If Kenmore will not resolve this issue immediately, we intend to spread the word of our experience on every social media outlet we can find. Our friends and followers on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Tumblr, Blogger and Instagram will soon know about our experience.

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.

Kenmore Oasis Elite washing machine - F1 error message led me to do research online. After phone calls to Sears, I had to do my own homework. Found that there was a recall notification for serial# in range of CT01 thru CT49 which mine is. Model is 110 27092600. After many phone calls etc they said yes it is recalled due to the common F1 error message but that I have to pay for the repairs... WHAT!? Their product fails and so many of these washing machines failed that they had to do a recall but we the consumers have to pay for it? Never ever will I shop with Sears nor will I buy a Kenmore product even though I am in need of a new dryer, microwave/wall oven combo, and dishwasher.... oh and now a new washing machine or repair!

My washer, a Kenmore top-loading washer, model 2002 was purchased brand new from Sears. It is exactly 9 years old. It still washes, but for about 3 years now, it ALWAYS gets out of balance! The ONLY time it doesnt bang around out of balance is the very rare occasion I wash an extra small load. I am one person and wash 1 medium load about once a week. Sometimes a sort of large load,This washer has never been heavily used in any way. But, no matter how carefully I arrange the laundry in the washer when it gets to the spin cycle it sounds like someone is banging around inside it with a sledgehammer. The machine usually moves out of place it bangs so hard. There is no way to balance a load in this machine! Also - I HATE the safety lid lock button that makes me wait forever to be able to open the lid and try to re-arrange the load so it will not bang - but half the time - I cant really see why its out of balance and rearranging often still doesnt work ANYWAY. This was the least expensive washer they had - but I urge you - DONT buy it or buy any they have similar to the 2002 model. My mom had a Kenmore that lasted over 35 years. Boy, the old saying they dont make em like that anymore is an understatement. Im of the opinion a $300+ washer that gets medium use should last AT LEAST 15 years BEFORE it presents problems. This one started this problem at 6 years old. Also - I hope my next washer does NOT have a safety lid lock. It is an entirely unnecessary issue that presents way too many problems!

I purchased a Kenmore Elite double oven in 2012. After a few months of using it, the lower oven racks now fall down whenever I try to roast anything with any weight to it. Both the lower roasting rack and the middle racks do not stay in place. Only the top one is okay. It appears the sides of the oven have bowed out. I am not sure if this issue is going to be covered but it is clearly a manufacturing defect.

The racks in my oven started to fall off the supports on the side of the oven, dumping my casseroles, turkeys, roasts etc. I noticed it for the first time the first Christmas that I was roasting a heavy turkey and when I leaned in to remove the turkey; the rack collapsed under the roasting pan, spraying hot turkey fat all over the oven, the floor and me! I assumed I had done something wrong such as put the wrong rack in the wrong position. It continued to happen whenever I cooked something heavy until 3 years later everything I try to cook causes the racks to collapse. A service technician verified what I suspected. The oven body has expanded (probably because of inferior materials). I can no longer use my 3 year old oven and Sears as well as Electrolux (the manufacturer) refuse to do anything about it as I did not purchase an extended warranty. I will never purchase Kenmore appliances again!!!!

Purchased a Kenmore electric range in 2004 for $299.00 from Sears. Oven and broiler stopped working. Appears to be an electronic control panel problem. This panel sells for at $240.00. This seems very unreasonable. Why is this?

The refrigerator was well-built, simple and before we had to replace it, it lasted quite a while to what I imagined the normal life of a refrigerator should be especially with so many people in and out constantly for food or ice. Towards the end it didnt stay as cold, especially not when actually filled. Had to rearrange the refrigerator periodically, but overall very roomy. Held enough to readily feed 5 people daily, 2 of which usually had to have their own meals. The refrigerator has no fancy gadgets but easy to clean.

The oven racks fall with little or no weight placed on them. It is so bad that they now dont fit. Ive read online that the interior lining of the oven expands and the racks fall. This is a MAJOR safety hazard. I have been burned and my wife has been burned as a result. After informing the operator who took my call that I am an attorney, the operator transferred me to a line for immediate help. The immediate help was for the operator and not me, as the transferred line hung up on me.

Have had dishwasher for twelve years with no problems. Previously, I had a stove that was replaced only because of style. I have never had any bad incidents with any Kenmore appliance.

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.

This stove worked very well until it didnt. Ive had to replace all heating coils several time and it still quits working at the worse of times. Every time Ive used the self-cleaning feature it burns out the oven elements. I do not recommend.

August 2015, I purchased a Kenmore Elite Convection Oven MODEL #970C693832. Its a beautiful oven which came with a major problem. The red flag should have been noted when it was delivered, and the glass control panel fell off; this was before it was even brought into my kitchen. I asked them to return it, and we got a new one a week later. Three months in, the same thing happened again; the glass control panel fell off. I called Sears, and they sent a technician to fix it with a new control panel. The technician mentioned to me that the only thing holding the control panel is glue. When the oven is in use, every time I use my oven, the glue is melting away. Theres no frame to support it, when the glue melts off. How is this even safe? Last week, the same problem happened again, the glass control panel fell off. I called Sears again.Today, a technician from Sears came in to check it out and will be fixing it again with a new control panel. So until he comes back, and fixes it, I have to use tape to hold up the control panel in order to use the oven. Luckily, its still under the extended warranty, but I cant keep calling Sears to replace the control panel every time the glue melts. Instead of sending a technician to fix the same problem, Sears should replace this appliance because this problem will happen again, and they know it. This oven is not good, and I would never recommend it. Sears should do its part and make sure they are selling their customers good appliances that they can rely on. I am very disappointed with my appliance from Sears, and I wish Sears would make good appliances with top-of-the-line materials and parts. Sears needs to do a quality check assurance on their appliances before they go on the market. We as customers cannot afford to expend so much money on products that either dont last, or have problem with their parts.

Performance was good. I rarely needed to pre-wash dishes by hand. Just rinse any solids or large amounts of liquids and dishes were always clean, even without using the hi-temp wash. Noise was tolerable, so you did not feel like you had to be in another room while the dishwasher was running. It is a standard sized dishwasher with a fairly normal interior layout common to most dishwashers in this price range. Dishwasher looks very nice in a kitchen of stainless steel appliances. They do show smudges and dirt, so cleaning is important. Window cleaner works wells to avoid streaks, but using stainless steel appliance cleaner gave the metal a deeper look, with easy application and is worth paying a few dollars for. This Kenmore was a good mid-range dishwasher. It is not silent, nor does it have an extremely well thought out interior, but it cleans well, looks good, and gets the job done for a reasonable price.

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 $$.

Every time I use the dryer it gets the job done. It doesnt take hours to dry them and it allows me to get more dry in half the time. I would recommend in using this dryer to help save time. It is time saving and has really helped me get my drying done. With the setting on the dryer, I can control the dry I need for my clothes. I like that is dryer is compact and it has a wonderful look to it, it is modern and fits next to my washer easily. Having the matching set will make any washroom complete and beautiful. Not everyone likes going out spending big money on washers and dryers. I found that this price was in my price range, it wasnt too high and you are getting the product for your money so you never have to worry about overspending.

Kenmore had the features we wanted, the color we preferred and the price range we wanted to stay in. Kenmore is also a recognized, popular brand. The dishwasher has met our expectations and I love the pot scrubber feature. I also like that I can turn off the drying cycle. It also lets me customize my load preference like light wash, pots and pans etc. However, sometimes the dishes arent totally dry even when I choose to have them dried. A few times Ive had to rerun the dishwasher because the dishes were still dirty and the casserole dish had baked on noodles.

Has lasted for years after many uses and many kids with tons of dirty clothes and a dirty husband. Even had shoes thrown in and still runs like a champ. Plus no lost socks! Works every time all the time. Even dries faster than other dryers Ive used and its great for quick use, plus I love all the options. The price is definitely worth it. I love the appearance of this dryer. It fits my decor greatly and matches my washer perfectly even though they are different models. Its very sleek and looks like a much more expensive dryer and its a mid range price dryer. I love that it looks like a high end dryer. This isnt your mothers dryer, with the old knobs and buttons. I love how this dryer looks.

Kenmore oven - glass door exploded outward spreading hundreds of glass pieces all over the kitchen. Oven was on at 350 degrees. The indoor glass appears to be intact, but exterior glass is completely shattered. Calls to Sears for immediate repair attention for a safety issue were generally dismissed by their off shore answering/scheduling service.

Poor quality material. It is rusting in every corner! Also is coming apart. The control panel is loose. The burners are getting hard to clean. The top oven, I keep it covered with aluminum foil, otherwise if you cook something and it falls on the top of the stove, it’s going to stain the paint.

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.

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.

Purchased range oven from Sears a Kenmore. Do not buy - it basically exploded, made a big popping noise and they refused to warranty it. The women on the phone was rude and refused to let me speak to a supervisor. No wonder they are closing Sears stores. Their products have really gone downhill. I am so disappointed. I have always purchased my appliances at Sears. Will never do that again.

I really liked its price and its finishes that looked good material and high quality. It was a bargain and a good value for my money that I could invest. It is a very reliable refrigerator, small but does its functions well that are to cool and freeze my products. To be a mid-range brand it worked well for me. The fact that its doors are small is what displeases me about the model. I would have liked some doors more in line with my needs that would occupy more space for the products.

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.

Oven self-cleaning has discolored the top edge of the oven door and caused the edge to ripple. Also, it has discolored at the left top from the vent outlet. Sears will do nothing about this and wanted $80.00 to have someone look at it (like maybe we were not telling the Truth). Our complaint is with the Kenmore stove and with Sears review of the problem by doing Nothing. We will not be buying from Sears again, not even a rocking chair.

Kenmore Ultra Bake Oven - So apparently this is a thing with Kenmore ovens? I was not in the kitchen when I heard a pop followed by lots of crackling. No one was near the oven, thank god. The oven is 8 years old, but we really dont use it often and do not treat it roughly. There is no good reason why an oven door should explode. This seems to be a well-known problem and yet there are no consumer warnings on new ovens and no recalls that I can find. These ovens are dangerous and should not be in peoples homes. Kenmore should take responsibility for creating an inferior product instead of blaming this obvious defect on consumer use. Very disappointed.

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.

About 4 years ago, my wife and I bought 6 new Kenmore products for our new home including a dishwasher, oven, microwave, refrigerator and a washer and dryer. All of these products have failed. The oven will no longer bake. The microwave when turned on has a lighting show in the side which I feel is very unsafe. The dishwasher coating has come off the racks and they are rusting badly. The dryer door will not latch because its broken and the start button has broken too. The washer leaks and keeps stopping in the middle of a cycle and flashing a code for some problem. And last but not the least, the fridges filter leaks. We have tried to contact Kenmore and no one will talk to us or help, and dealing with Sears is just a joke! My wife and I spent very good money on these products and dont feel we should have to replace them 4 years later or have to repair them. They are all Kenmore Elite products and for the money we spent, we think the company should stand behind their products and workmanship. Even a call back or just a response would be nice, but I guess this is a company where once they get your money theyre done with you. If theres any way someone could help us, that would be great. We just want to be able to cook and do laundry again like people with working appliances do. Thank you for your time.

I purchased a Kenmore Elite 790.48883.110 built-in microwave to match my Elite built-in oven. The Elite microwave electronics fried within a few months while still under warranty. The electronics were replaced but fried again a year later while out of warranty. This microwave is a LEMON. There is a design or manufacturing defect in this unit. Sears is retailing the microwave for $2,000 (I paid $1,300). I have a Hamilton Beach microwave that I purchase at Walmart for $65 at it works like a charm. Why cant Sears make a $2,000 microwave that lasts for a year?The fun begins when you contact Sears Customer Care. The first thing that the non-English speaking person told me was that I needed to contact Electrolux because they were the ones who actually made the microwave. Duh? I bought the microwave at Sears and it has Kenmore labeled on the front door! I really dont care which company in China made the unit, Sears is the responsible party! But this is what Sears Customer Care operators are trained to do. After much complaining, I was finally turned over to an English-speaking operator. His job was to sell me a $500 per year insurance policy. I told him, Thanks but no thanks! If I have to spend $500 it will go toward yanking out the Kenmore unit and replacing it with another brand!By the way, the microwave (when actually working) gives off an ear-piercing beep every 15 seconds that is extremely obnoxious. This beep cannot be turned off or adjusted. DONT BUY THIS LEMON OR ANY OTHER APPLIANCES FROM SEARS...!!! Sears used to be a good company but has turned into a pile of horse manure!

Model: Kenmore Stove Model 970-687131. The stoves finish was sold as a stainless steel model, but really its just a stainless steel coated finishing not at all stainless steel at all.. I feel duped of course, because the FINISH is so terribly done its wearing out fast... (see picture attached). The proof in the pudding is that the VENT hole from the oven on the left hand side has caused the finishing to come right off. One day i was cleaning the stove and bam the finish right above the venting area washed right off... Not exactly what I call QUALITY...Next time I intend to take my trusty super magnet with me anywhere I intend to buy stainless appliances and ensure that they product is exactly that, stainless steel. Magnets dont stick to stainless steel 18/10 or higher far as I know and that should be proof enough, plus I can always ask more questions and check demo models more closer. I am definitely not planning on another KENMORE forever here after. Thats for sure...

I wanted to buy a new oven for my 88 year old mother who lives in a mobile home. There was only one model, Kenmore 24inch, white, gas model that fit her space. This oven was bought site unseen as there were no floor models available. Installed and with all the extra charges the cost was $1600. The oven itself was 1499.00. I live in another area so upon visiting my mother and seeing the new oven which has absolutely NO BELLS OR WHISTLES. This is a basic on off oven and broiler. OH it does have a clock... What a piece of garbage!!! The design is stupid with broiler in a bottom drawer, its barely hot enough on HI to broil anything, the door corners were chipped, the oven glass steams up when using the broiler, the temperature gauge is way off in the oven, the installation looks cheap and incomplete. If I had seen all of this within the 30 day return period this oven would be returned... But my only recourse now is to inform anyone who might be considering this oven to consider that the only pro...is that it is cheap in every way!

We have the Kenmore range model 790. It is five years old and has died. We tried having it serviced by Sears and they told us that they no longer service Vail, Co. We put our money and faith in their product and are disappointed in the response. This stove is not worth buying nor will we further shop at Sears or purchase any of their products. They do not stand behind them!

The stovetop grids are so easy to clean, you can lift them completely off and polish the stove surface. Nice variety burners and center for grill, easy to make multiple pancakes at once. Oven is large and easy to clean, racks remove easily.

I do not recommend buying Kenmore Elite appliances. We bought the suite and all 4 appliances have required repeat service calls. The refrigerator has broken down twice and had to be replaced. The range had to be repaired. The dishwasher had to be repaired. The microwave had to be repaired and might need to be replaced. If you buy these appliances, you will have to buy the extended warranty otherwise, you will be faced with thousands of dollars of repair cost once the original warranty expires. I expect that these appliances will need to be replaced within 3-5 years and we will not buy Kenmore Elite.

We are trying to prepare our Thanksgiving pies, and simply open the oven door to place the pies inside and POP! Nothing made contact with the glass, it simply shattered all over the floor. My oven door looks just like all the others here, so tell me its not a manufacturers defect. Every appliance Ive purchased in the last ten years has been shoddily built somewhere other than America. I say let Americans build something again. The closer they are, the more likely it is I can kick them when my expensive junk breaks!

Its a durable dishwasher and cleans dishes very good. No oils and dirts and cleans germs. It looks very nice in the outside and is proven that its a good quality product. The size of the dishwasher is just perfect, not too big and not too small. All the dishes fits good and have some places for the little utensils and other stuffs you need to put in it. The dishwashers appearance is very unique and really nice to look at. I can say it is very eye catching and looks really sturdy. It is indeed a good quality product. The dishwashers value is perfect for anyone. It is very affordable and with the great value, it gives you work that not all dishwashers can do. I will recommend this product as it is proven and tested.

Sear Kenmore Elite Range 79032363E410 - Oven does not keep temperature at all. One time it just canceled program on its own. Oven is off 20-30 degrees. Tech told me to buy a regular temperature oven gauge which I did. It was off 50 degrees. My oven has been repaired 4 times. They have replaced coils, motherboard and even top ignitor, etc. They told me one more time and I could get a new one. I am having them come out once again to repair because it is doing same thing. I bought extended warranty and glad I did. This is the worst oven. Originally bought different oven and it was defective and they kept on delivering 4 bad ovens. So they upgraded me to this one so basically this is my 5th oven! If you have a choice-DO NOT BUY any Sears appliance products because I purchased 5 Kenmore Elite products when remodeling and all but my dishwasher had to be repaired or replaced more than once. You can go online to check numbers to see who makes them. Mostly LG makes Kenmore. LG is also bad product. Spend the money if you have and go with a really good oven brand.

Kenmore Electric Built-Oven model 790 oven has been down twice. Replaced element within 6 months, it something else. The stove will not heat up again. Holidays a few weeks away. No deserts will be baked. Kenmore Product.

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!

The washer machine doesnt fail to work. I have had it for a long time and it still hasnt worn its performance. It cleans everything perfectly and without fail. I can always trust this machine. It has never proven bad. This machine is reliable for any clothes and large to fit them into it. The appearance of this washer machine is marvelous. It fits perfectly in next to the dryer. The funny thing is the two machines next to one another fit perfectly in the laundry room. It is well worth the value. It has never let me down. I have had this washer machine for 3 years and it still acts as if its brand new. Im amazed.

The broiler on my Kenmore smooth-top electric range came on by itself and superheated. Didnt know this happened until house filled with smoke and toxic fumes. Nothing showed on stove display and cancel/off would not work. Had to pull out stove from nook and unplug to make it stop. House smelled like burnt plastic and wiring for days. Stove was only 7 yrs old and not used much by single person. Tried plugging it back in after stove had cooled down and same thing happened. Could have burned house down. Extremely dangerous malfunction!

The range is not bad for the price. It would be nice if it offered a little more room in the oven. It would also be nice if you could get a good peek inside the oven without having to open the door all the time.

Kenmore Elite model 790.9750 - Purchased this Kenmore Double Oven from Sears in 2011. The bottom oven racks are not holding and the ridges that hold the racks have rusted. This is dangerous as it causes hot messy spills and burns when the racks and pans fall to bottom. Sears and Kenmore both deny it is a problem and one sends me to other with complaint. I know this is a problem for many of us consumers that bought these ovens. Frustrated.

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 bought this gas stove at Sears at least 20 years ago. It still looks almost as good as new; the only damage is a chip that the men who installed a replacement floor made somehow. It has never needed repair. Its easy to clean and still works perfectly. I bought a second one used for my lake house 10 years ago with the same experience.

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!

The only thing I can say as a 25 year contractor is stay away from this line, not worth the money. I used Pro, refrig, oven, cooktop, 2 dishwashers and you know what I havent had problems with? my Ninja blender! Everyone of the Pro pieces have had either a design issue or a quality issue, I have replaced and repaired every piece in my kitchen. If youre looking to buy high end Kenmore Pro is just for looks. Contact me Ill will tell you the list of items.

Bought electric stove in Jan 2011. On Christmas Eve this year, I preheated oven and smelled weird electric or plastic burning smell. Wasnt sure what smell was from, put muffins in to bake. Oven cooked way too hot and burnt muffins in 10 minutes. Turned oven off and sparks, smoke and black ash poured out of top. Called Sears to see what they would do about my stove starting on fire. They were rude and wouldnt do anything other than offer over priced technician that I would have to pay for.Clearly, the oven sparking and smoking was caused by a defect in their product. Afraid for my safety, I unplugged stove until I could hire my own repairman to come and diagnose stove. I would not trust Sears technician anymore than Kenmore product and was not about to pay more money to such a worthless company. Last time I checked, a stove is a purchase that should last longer than two or three years. $260 repair, had to replace control board. I will never purchase another Sears or Kenmore product. Buyer beware!! If you purchase a defective product from this company, you are on your own.

My Kenmore microwave is 16 months old and it is arcing. I called Kenmore and they said SORRY. If you dont have insurance then we cant help you. Is the quality so bad that a consumer is forced to take out insurance now? I will never buy Kenmore products again. Now I am afraid that the stove, refrigerator and dishwasher will end up in the trash also. Do not buy Kenmore products. They are not what they used to be.

I purchased this Kenmore convection range in July 2011 online from Sears for $782.16 with free delivery. A few weeks ago, I was using the self-cleaning cycle when I heard a pop and saw a spark of light. I turned the cycle off, let it cool and turned the cleaning cycle back on and finished the cleaning. In my heart I knew there was something not right. I tested the preheat and it seemed slow, but I was able to use the oven a few times after that. Then the last time I turned it on, I got a weird chlorine smell/burning plastic?...That was it... No more oven. After the disbelief subsided, I started making phone calls. Per Sears... my one year warranty was up and I was up a creek. Sears repair sent a repairman ($80.25 with tax) and I was told it would be $348.02 to repair the electronic range control and overlay.Needless to say, the repairman had little to say except, These things are mass produced, its the manufacturer (Kenmore? probably not) not Sears. I guess Sears only sells the junk. After that they have no responsibility. He also had the gall to say, It is what it is, and left coupons for a percentage off a new stove. The little Troll even gave me a line about purchasing a new warranty after they repaired their junk. TWILIGHT ZONE... I will never buy another Kenmore product nor will I buy from Sears. If I could give a negative star rating I would... Now I need to go look for a stove as I am raising three grandchildren and they like to eat regular... Guess you get what you pay for... or not!

Im writing a complaint with regards to a free-standing Kenmore smooth top, self-cleaning range Model Number 970C623120. I purchased this brand new stove from Sears in September 2014 and after only a few weeks noticed the clock panel went blank and all the beeping stopped when you set the oven to bake, etc. I called and a technician came out to replace the whole panel. Not long after this the exact same thing happened and technician came out again to replace the panel. Same thing again. This time technician said that the stove was unserviceable and I received a brand new stove in February 2015. After a while same thing happened! For some reason the panel reset itself this time when I held the bake button. I tried many things because I didnt want to go through all the phone calls, service calls etc. again. I promptly wrote this down in case I needed to reset it and sure enough it did go blank but my little trick didnt work. So here we are again. I wrote an e-mail of complaint to the manufacturer so that I could have a reasonable solution to this problem. Sending out technicians and replacing the same part on two different stoves without trying to figure out whats causing the problem is daft in my opinion! The manufacturer did not get back to me within the 2 business days promised. Im beyond frustrated because all theyre willing to do is send out another technician. Again. Never will I purchase a Sears Kenmore (Electrolux) product! I am thankful that its not a dangerous problem like so many other consumers have had on this site. Yet.

My Kenmore is from 1974. My oven door squeaks a little and the knobs lettering is mostly worn off but I still love it. However, I can’t find parts for it.. Like new knobs, I’ve looked on several sites. It has a griddle in the middle which I love. It takes a lickin and keeps on tickin... Lol.

Kenmore Electric Range Model 790.9742 - Purchased in April 2010. The racks are no longer and it collapsed during the cooking process due to the oven liner warping and bowing out. Repairman says it is unrepairable and there are no racks available to fix this problem. Sears tells me this is an isolated problem and they have never heard of this problem before. Really?! Its all over the internet on not only Kenmore, but LG, Jenn-Air, Whirlpool, and other brands made for Sears. All Sears will do is give me a 20% discount off a new stove because I did not buy the extended warranty. I sincerely doubt the extended warranty would have covered an oven liner since it is not a replaceable part. It is part of the oven, according to the repairman. I was nearly burned when I pulled out a casserole to check on it. Dutch oven also fell after a few hours while it was cooking in the oven. Luckily, the door stayed closed and the Dutch oven fell straight down. It could have caused a major grease fire. Sears refuses to admit there is a problem with the steel used in the oven liner. Sears no longer stands behind their products. They say they are sorry. I am disappointed in the longevity of my stove. Well, yes, it is only 2 1/2 years old and this shouldnt be happening. It would have happened sooner had I used the self-cleaning oven feature which I have yet to do and it would have caused additional warping and bowing. I have an oven I paid $1000 for and is unusable because I, more than likely, will get burned or a fire will happen due to these racks no longer fitting.

Works well and has a nice range of temp. I would buy it again for sure. That you are in the market for a no frills but a power horse of a fridge check this one out. The size is about average for what they used to be. I know now some high-end models can hold a lot more but this is more than enough for the average household. It reminds me of every other fridge that has come out in the last twenty-five years that is the basic model of course. Big white surface to attach all your magnets and school report cards too. The cost is no more or less than the average fridge of that type and size. Of course you can spend a lot more for side by side doors and in door water and ice but those most people do not need in reality.

Glad to not have to wash dishes by hand and also the dry time is great... Dont have to worry about second washing... very easy and convenient. My kitchen is kind of small so this dishwasher is a great size and falls right into place around my cabinets and under my countertop. Great fit for any size kitchen. The white goes very well with my kitchen. The color matches my kitchen appliances... the stove and refrigerator. It is easy to clean also. The value of the dishwasher is good. Low maintenance and upkeep. I really like this dishwasher and I would recommend it to anyone who is shopping around for a great dishwasher.

Nice looking oven, but it Shuts down randomly - F44 code. Had it replaced in less than a month after purchasing it NEW and the replacement does the exact same thing. SUCKS! We do not want this computerized **. Just give me a manual operated oven! We are going to have to get something other than this oven.

We bought a Kenmore electric range/oven, model number 790.90152304. We used the oven maybe five times. The sixth time we tried to use it, it essentially got stuck in uncontrolled preheat. When turned on, the oven will go into preheat mode. Once the preheat temperature is reached, the preheat light goes off, but the upper element stays on. The upper element will not go off until the oven controls sense that something is wrong. By that time, the oven is extremely hot, and eventually shuts itself off with an F1 error. If anything is on the upper rack of the oven, it will start on fire due to the intense heat. Since the time of the first incident, the oven has not functioned normally.The internet is littered with complaints about this same Kenmore model. So, I can see that I am not the first customer to encounter this problem. The point is, there is a design problem with these ovens. Upon calling the Sears service number, I was advised of several plans. They told me I would have to pay a Sears tech to come and fix the oven. Needless to say, I bristled at the thought of paying to have something fixed that has a serious design flaw. This comes very close to saying that Kenmore put the design problem in so that they could fix and make a little extra money. As far as I am concerned, Sears/Kenmore should recall these ovens.

When my families oven of twenty years finally kicked the bucket we shopped around for the best, not the cheapest, the best for our home. We happened upon Sears and found the Kenmore 5 burner range. We asked for it in white to match our kitchen and happily they had it in stock. The problems began the better half of six months. After baking for all that time we noticed that when any casserole is placed in the oven on the rack, it bends very close to baking. We called and were hurried off the phone by the horrible company saying new racks would arrive at our house in five business days. Three weeks later we called back after visiting the Store in Hermitage. We were greeted by an ignorant saleswoman (I am college educated and I am using the correct form of this word) who stared at us and said Why oh yes, these racks are flimsy. Maybe you could have a welder have ones made or go to a used store and but replacements. Flabbergasted we called the Kenmore hotline to be reconnected over and over to someone who informed us the racks were never ordered and a repairman would have to come and inspect the oven would be over to see if the oven was in fact broke. The man never showed and said there was no way our oven was broken. Not only is it unacceptable for Sears employees to be so inconsiderate to family who purchased a full price $900 product, but also it is horrid that Kenmore had lied and cheated us along the way. NO ONE SHOULD WASTE THEIR HARD EARNED MONEY HERE!

My Kenmore oven smells like burning wires when I use it. I see other consumers have similar complaints against Sears. My local power company has also just installed Smart Meters and the meters are causing some consumer stoves to burn out electrically. Has anyone else had their Sears Kenmore appliances malfunction just when the meters came along?

This Kenmore washer is very energy efficient and does a great job cleaning my laundry. This is a good product and it has been nothing but reliable. I have had it for a few years and have never had to replace or have any repairs done. Mines white because all my other appliances are and its easier to keep everything matching. It is also worth every penny. I did some comparison before purchasing and believe this was the best quality product in our price range and am extremely satisfied with the purchase. I would definitely recommend this product.

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.

I really have had a very good experience with this dishwasher. I was always pleased with how well the dishes were clean. As long as I used a very good brand of dishwasher liquid and arranged the dishes in the washer so that nothing was covered up by another dish the dishes all came out very clean and spot free. The size of this washer was good for my family of 5. We didnt have to do much hand washing as we were always able to put most if not all the dishes into this washer to be washed. I love the color of this washer because it matched the colors of my other appliances. Black does not show a lot of stains. It just really blends well even with my cabinetry. It is very easy to wipe clean. The perceived value is that it is a good solid brand that is worth more than the money paid for it. It makes my life so much easier being that we do have a nice sized family and as much as I hate to do the dishes this really makes it easy for me to get the dishes done so it is more worth the money we paid for it.

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.

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.

Purchased oven in 2013. Worked well for a while, but now I am having a problem with the controls. Recently, the oven control panel has started flickering and will not completely shut down when the ovens timer reaches zero. Big disappointment!

We purchased a Kenmore wall oven in late 2012. Recently we used a heavy pot and the middle and lower rack fell down. Sears service came and stated that the walls are too thin and bent when there is weight on the racks... a design problem. They wanted us to buy new wall parts - with the same design problem - to replace the existing wall parts.

Motherboard causes oven to overheat to the point it could cause a fire.

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.

In 2002, we had a new home built and purchased all new Kenmore Appliances. That was a huge mistake. The range almost burned our home down. When the oven got stuck on high and wont shut off, I had to throw the breaker as the oven was too hot to touch. That was a couple of years ago. Sears wouldnt do anything for me. Lets see the Kenmore dishwasher as it had two motors and three thermal fuses replaced. The microwave door is cracking all the way up the handle for no reason. The fridge drawers have broken twice. No wonder Sears is just about out of business.
