We just purchased a Sears 500 series top loading washer. It does not get clothes clean. After washing whites, with bleach, towels used for baking with some chocolate batter stains did not get clean. Stains remained. The machine does not put enough water in the tub to get clothes clean. It does not agitate enough to get out spots. Autofill simply does a terrible job at assessing amount of water needed per load. There is no way for the consumer to add more water to a load. The machine fails on design and execution. If not buy this product.

Never had a single problem with the machine. It would get used at least twice a week. Clothes come out smelling fresh and clean every time. This is the most reliable machine I have ever used. It provides everything someone could want in a machine and handles large loads easily on a regular basis. It looks like any other machine that you purchase, you arent going in expecting some super sleek design but its practical for its use and fits the build. The price was right in line with all others but you are getting much better quality for what you are spending your money on for a home unit that is reliable.

Bought a top load washer from Sears almost twenty years ago. In that time I have replaced the dogs, brake and installed a rebuild transmission myself. All for under $150. It is still going strong today. Parts and repair videos were easy to find online. They dont make them like that anymore.

Kenmore 600s is garbage. Would give zero stars if I could. This washer twists your clothes so bad they are stretched and ruined. I’ve tried all the scenarios given by Kenmore and same thing. If you do a deep fill it will cut down on twist but clothes don’t agitate and come out just as dirty as they went in but now just wet. Deep fill negates the water saving feature claimed by kenmore. If you run a normal wash with same clothes, 10 tee shirts, the shirts on the top just sit there and don’t agitate through the wash. Then I was told that’s too big a load. Really??!! So I can only wash 5 tee shirts at a time, at 1hr intervals, to keep from twisting and get them washed with the water saving feature you advertise?? To date I’m out over $400 in clothes due to twisting and the extravagant price for a defective product. It’s out of warranty and kenmore won’t help. Have had it over two years and I’m done. Goodbye Kenmore, you have lost this customer for life. Your product is getting sent to metal scrap because I won’t even donate this problem to another victim.

The washer uses a sufficient amount of water to get the several loads of laundry cleaned each time. It is quiet and runs accordingly every time. I think it was a good value when I bought it now. I thought it handled every load well and had great capabilities of washing various loads, such as darks, lights, colors, and delicates. The water levels and heat were sufficient and well done. The washer is sleek and professional looking. It is large enough for the normal load but also for heavier loads. I got the washer in a white color with standard metallic sides. The value of the washer was great. I did not pay very much when I first bought it, and thanks to its reliability, it has held up well over the years and has stretched the dollar.

It is very quiet and it dries my laundry in no time especially when I have different sizes of clothes, all are dried according without I having to restart the drying process. Overall, l would recommend this product because it is very efficient, effective and dependable. I definitely like the fact that it dries your clothes effectively without burning out the colors. It is very reliable and I would recommend it to my family and friends. The appearance is very simple and the directions are clear and concise. It has a user-friendly appearance for everyone. It is really an awesome product. I like it. The price was quite affordable at the time and I got it while it was on sale. However, I think the general price tag is reasonable now compared to other similar products in this category.

Works great. It fits all your loads in at once! Its efficient and gets the job done with multiple loads, and its energy-efficient. It saves time and money especially with a busy schedule. Its white, front loader, and fits in my pantry space. Not too big. Cost about $900.

Works great, affordable price and lasts for yrs. Cant beat the performance and how well it works. Just dont overfill with clothes. Little loads for high soil items is best. The water is great working and cleans soiled things very well if you do smaller loads but use full cycle. I find with the kids socks and grass dirt it cleans and dont beat them to death. Im very happy with the quality and performance. This is also a great washer to have if you do camping. The look of a washer doesnt really matter to me only because it is in the basement and I am the only one that sees it however it is a stylish and old fashion design that one that sees it knows it is a washing machine and sees the elegance of the style. I would recommend this washing machine to any person that has a lower budget and still wants guilty and if a super cool look doesnt matter you will fall in love with this great working product that still gives you a smart look and high performance product.

I do not like a lot of bells and whistles on appliances. The less controls, the better. My Kenmore washer is easy to use and does a great job at cleaning clothes. There are only 2 persons in my household and the capacity was just right for my needs. I also like that you can adjust the capacity to what size load you need to wash. Also, its easy to wipe and clean. The value is fair and you get what you pay for.

I like Kenmore because it seems to be the best long-term appliance. Service on them I have been able to do myself cause simply to disassemble and online how-to sites. I have had my clothes get cleaner than any laundromat big washers have done with my Kenmore. I would not buy any other brand.

This model was the best one Sears had under the Kenmore label. It has a matching dryer which I also purchased. It is one of the newer low water washers which took some getting used to. Over time I have learned a lot in regard to what and what not to do in order to operate this machine as a high efficiency washer. When I mastered a few of the "mystery tricks" then this seemingly "monster washer" became my friendly servant. I learned by the various "wish-wash" sounds when the wash cycle needed a bit more water, and by redistributing the clothes up around the sides of the rim, more water would be added by the machine. Also, though it is a super heavy-duty washer, I've learned not to load it too full or it will keep going back to the rinse cycle (over and over) and never go forward to spin.

Expert construction with quality results. Gets clothes clean and does not tangle them all up. The agitation is gentle where it does not shake the whole machine. Dryer leaves clothes wrinkle free. Great investment. Adjust the settings to your desired mode and the machines are carefree. One is free to go about other chores and not have to worry about keeping an eye on a Kenmore. Attractive white in color. Blends in with everything. It doesnt show fingerprints. Easy to clean and keep dust free. Dust filter is within easy access. The value of a Kenmore is priceless because its worry free. If in need of repair, parts are easily obtainable. Kenmore is an easy machine for a repairman to work on and parts dont cost an arm and a leg.

Clean well, works well - washes fast. Laundry comes out smelling good - great machine, last forever - cant overload it. Thats my favorite part about it. My husband broke our other washer that way thats why we got yours. Like the design, like the shape, like how easy it is to get to the buttons and how easy it is to put the soap in - very easy to use washer, nice washer. Did pay that much a very good deal, great value, got a lot of use for the price. I couldnt have ask for a better price. We do probably 3 loads a day in that machine.

It works great. Its economical with its water usage. This sure is a reliable product. I have not had to contact a repairman, which would certainly be expensive. I really do enjoy and trust my washing machine. I am a very proud owner of a top loading Kenmore washing machine. I used to have a front loader, but it was very prone to growing mold and mildew. My current washing machine never lets me down. I did not have to pay a fortune and there have been no repair issues. I highly recommend.

The performance is great. I really never have a problem with this product. I can trust and rely on this brand to do what I need it to do. The performance of it has never let me down. Very reliable, I can take care of my need and want of washing with my washer. I have never been left with the thought of my washer not being able to work for me. The appearance is not that much to think about. It was a plain design and basically like any typical washer. The body was made like others. The value of the washer for me seems phenomenal. I am able to take care all of my problems and still move around throughout our daily lives.

Kenmore HE no agitator washer. I have called a few times to complain on the wash it does. Sometimes I need to put thru another rinse and spin. Some of my colored clothes come out with white streak, sometimes my whites feel very gritty and my clothes feel like they are not really washed and clean. Hate this machine. I will either seek and buy a new one or suffer with it.

Works good with all types of clothes in hot and cold water. Saves energy. Very quiet and not noisy. Looks very good and does not take up that much space. Long cord so you can put it anywhere.

Makes clothes clean and smell great. Great product and great service. Last a long time. I highly recommend their products. I have had no problems with the upkeep. Easy and affordable for parts and service.

Kenmore is really a great brand and I trust it. Out of the whole 5 years that Ive had this particular washer Ive never had to repair it, buy parts for it, is still up to its name Kenmore. Just a regular white washer not too many buttons and knobs but very easy to clean and it worked wonderfully. I loved it. It did not tear up my clothes. Ive had a washing that used to heat my clothes up.

The appearance is very modern. The design of the machine is according the specialist great idea. The capacity of the machine is very big and contain around 1 ton of clothes. The motors is long lasting and the cycle is fast. The time of the program too short and save the energy but very efficiently wash the clothes very clean. Also, the inside is made stainless materials. All are very updated. The rate is far above than the other models. It last longer than expect after the manufactured and it can beat the similar models on the markets. Also, very reliable. I used the machine more than 10 years without any problem and maintenance free. The cost is not very expensive / energy saver program apply it very well.

Its a good washer that weve had for a couple years. It can handle big loads and gets everything nice and clean without any trouble at all. Very reliable washer. It has never been broken and never stopped working. It runs like its new and is very clean. I love it so much. I like the appearance of my washer. You can tell its newer and more modern by having the door in the front instead of loading it from the top of the washer. I think it was a good value. I cant remember exactly how much we spent on it but I know that we got it on sale for a decent price a couple of years ago.

My Kenmore washing machine is the best that I have owned, It doesnt have the center agitator, which allows more clothing to put in the tub. The quality of the wash clothing is great. To be able to put in over 5 cubic feet of material in the tub makes it so easy to wash blankets and comforters. So happy with this purchase!

Turn knobs are easy to use and cant complain about the looks of the washer. I liked the smooth surface look and feel. Its a basic washer and has very good value for what you get, just would never buy one again and I would not recommend buying this washer due to all the issues I had with mine. I had the washer drum break down at least 2x while I owned. Had issues with manufacturers warranty. This washer is not reliable. Stay away. I would purchase a completely different brand. Never good experience with any Kenmore appliances.

It worked very well in all varieties of clothes. It could also hold a lot of clothes. It always worked, no matter what. The only time I ever had any problems with it was when the clothes would get wrapped around the spinning mechanism. But that was more user error than anything. It was pretty. But it was in our basement and our basement was so ugly it was beautiful in comparison. It looked fine. It was big and white. It was cumbersomely big. We had it for a very long time. At least 15 years. And I dont remember anyone making any repairs on it, so maybe it only happened once.

Gets extremely dirty clothes clean in one wash. Low energy so my utility bills arent high. Great look, and easy to use buttons. Not extremely loud like my previous washer. Definitely big enough to fit all my standard washes. Sometimes my king size comforter can feel like a tight squeeze and the wash isnt the absolute best but it definitely works. Definitely looks great. People always notice it when they see my laundry room. Definitely a nice looking unit not a dated look of some washers. For the cost with the energy costs, its look, and how good the washes are this washer is definitely worth the buy. For its price its hard to beat the combination of looks and features.

Model 110.27102310. Serial C34130259 - The washer finishes the cycle and the clothes are barely wet. Oftentimes I have to do it over again wasting water, time and detergent. If the load is uneven during the spin cycle, the washer hit its wall very, very loud but does not show or have any indication where and how to balance the load (more to the left? or more to the right?). Its HIT AND MISS - I keep trying to balance it over and over with a guess. It is so frustrating!

Purchased a Kenmore Washer Model 796.41382410 in Oct. 2014. A small plastic magnetic catch on the door broke and Sears will not sell that part alone. They want me to buy a new door for $200.00 plus shipping. None of the small plastic parts appear to be available alone. All must be purchased as part of a larger (and very expensive) assembly. Last Kenmore for me.

Kenmore 600 series washer - The images here depict a small load in normal cycle. The clothes didn’t get cleaned and that is because they just sit in a small puddle of water. The ad for this washer claims it can wash 21 towels?? Try four. We have to wash loads more than once and quilts are washed three times. The deep fill option is a joke. The worst part is that you end up wasting so much water it’s ridiculous. Kenmore wont do anything about it. They offer a service repair. We have been taking pictures of different cycles and the end results. We have a big family and It infuriates me that we have to go to a laundromat to wash our clothes when we have a brand new washer at home.

Its a great machine. I really think it runs good and is one of the best machines Ive owned. I would tell my friends and family about it. Id get another if I need to buy one. Runs and washes great. I really like the way it works and runs. Very stylish. I like the way it looks and the way its made. I like the color of it. I find it very nice. It was a fair price for the brand. I think I got a fairly good deal. I would buy another if this one messed up and I would tell my friends about it.

I purchased a Kenmore laundry center last year. Quality was clearly not good but I felt OK about the price. After 13 months, 1 month after the warranty expired, the units control board failed locking my laundry in the washer and remaining in a permanent agitate cycle which was incredibly agitating. Estimated repair cost exceeded $600. I learned my lesson about buying cheap crap: you get what you pay for. I am junking the Kenmore and going for a quality unit like Bosch.

The appearance of this appliance was just OK, but its long lasting so the value was satisfactory for the amount paid. It had multiple settings which was very nice. It functioned very well and was not loud. It solved the dirty clothes issues and it never destroyed clothing. You could also add ANY kind of cleaner to it. The machine was not complex and just needed modernization, but all in all it did the job it was supposed to do.

I dont use it often but I do like the machine. It is easy to use. Although I prefer easy button option and more details. I wish it will let me select more option and a timer that I can preset. Also, long years warranty will be nice. But its the brand that I always like. The price and the quality are always nice and reasonable. All my family like the brand, I dont think Ill change it anytime soon. In fact, my mom has just purchased a washing machine, it might be the next thing Im get.

Its a very good washer. Very strong and well made. I really like it. Its been a very good one made strong and to last. Id buy another if I needed to. Great service. Its long lasting and does a great job on washing your laundry. It was made by a good company and has last me a while now. Id buy the same brand if I needed to. Very stylish, fits in with my home decor, just the perfect color and design. They make their product nice and appealing. I love the way they make them. Very good value, not real expensive. Its a good price for something that does a great job. I would suggest everyone give them a try. I think I got a fair deal on mine.

We have never had a single problem with our set of Kenmores. We did not buy the top of the line more of the bottom line, no bells and whistle. The settings are easy to read and turn knobs too, Im blind/low vision and markings are bold enough for me to see. Baskets are more than big enough to handle all of our washing loads. No extra settings to cluster the facial plates with settings we will never use. Bleach trough in the right place and easy to pour into, big enough to hold recommended amount, softener container in the middle easy to get to, softener lid can be a little hard to get off if you cut your fingernails too short. Product and price was right, have had for 5 years no service calls, bought a set for daughter.

Great washer, never had any complaints after 12 years of ownership! I would highly recommend purchasing this brand or Kenmore Elite. I found the key (start/stop) buttons to be very easy to maneuver and is very easy to clean inside and outside.

My Kenmore Elite top loading washer does not adequately submerge my clothes, especially comforters in the bulky/bedding setting with water. Nor does it agitate and move the clothes around to wash them. The drum simply goes back-and-forth so the same clothes that were on the top at the beginning of the cycle are still on the top at the end of the cycle. Bulky items never change position at all. Furthermore, I do not use bleach, but the bleach container has eroded and rusted all around it. I am not satisfied with how this washes my clothes.

I am reviewing the Kenmore top loader High Efficiency 600S Series washer. The washer is terrible. It leaves a film of soap scum on all of my clothes. You can see it most on dark items, but it is there on all laundry. I have tried many variations of trouble-shooting. Nothing works. I have tried calling customer service multiple times, and the only thing they have done for me is to tell me is to use HE (high efficiency) detergent, which of course I am doing. I literally have to wash all of my clothes 3 times (the 2nd and 3rd time with no detergent) to get them clean. So, ultimately I have a useless, very inefficient washer. DO NOT PURCHASE this model. And given the poor customer service, I would not recommend Kenmore/Sears in general. Prior to this I was a fan of Sears products.

We purchased a brand new Kenmore top load washer (600 series). My T-shirts came out of the wash smelling exactly like they did before the wash. Next, I noticed dry spots on a majority of the clothes. Thats right, dry spots. As in, the clothes did not get wet. Experimented with the deep fill option with double rinse. Still dry spots. Ive never had a washer that did not wash clothes. Do not buy this washer!

Satisfied. My clothes are clean and well dried after washing it. Less work. It can load heavy duty - the blankets, sheets, pillow cases. This brand is not expensive but really works well.

Water level too low, doesnt cover clothes. I wash everything on Bulky/Bedding and that seems to help get clothes cleaner. Months back a sheet wrapped itself around the agitator and it snapped right off. Called Sears and was told they dont have anyone in our area, Sears transferred the call to another company who said they dont have anyone either and I should call Sears. Needless to say, its still not fixed.

The capacity was great from small loads to extra large loads and perfect for the messiest clothes. You dont have to use much detergent either. I have grown children who bring their laundry to my home to wash and this washer has held up with all the extra wear and tear on it. It gets the job done and you dont even know when it is running because it is quiet and very dependable machine and good at helping remove set in stains. It is very sturdy and dependable and the price is where it is affordable and reliable and even can have a service agreement put on it in the event something goes wrong. It is a wonderful item and would recommend it to my family and Friends.

Kenmore Elite Oasis washer - I bought ours in 07 and started having trouble 6 months after we bought it! It wouldnt start when you pushed the button! We had to keep turning it off and on to get it to finally start! My husband is a Mr. Fix It so he figured out it was the computer board! He made sure all the wires were attached and such! I called Sears to complain and of course, they said I could get a repairman out! I told them it was 6 months old! My husband ordered a new board and put it in then it worked! Then a few months later, it started leaking water on the floor! Thank goodness its in the basement with a drain by it! So I kept using it! So yesterday, I heard a horrible racket coming from the basement, so I ran down and it was spinning with this terrible noise coming from it. So Ive been looking on the net for answers. They did recall them but not until 2010! So mine is too old! Hopefully, my husband can fix it again! Im so disappointed in this washer! You would think for as much money you spend, it wouldnt have this many problems! Our 1st washer lasted 20 years. It was a Maytag. Im not sure if that brand is better or they just dont make them like they used to. I would never recommend this washer to anyone!

I used the washer for many years. It functioned well and I typically washed about three loads a day. It was easy to use and my favorite part is that it held heavy duty large loads well and had no problems.

I have never had a problem with Kenmore products. The washing machine lasted for 20 years and I was washing for five children and two adults. In all those years, I have never had to call a repairman.

Our clothes always came out very clean using this washer and smelling great. My husband works in the motor oil manufacturing plant and he always comes home smelling of motor oil but using this washer, it really gets the smell out. This washer is very reliable and easy to use. We had Kenmore appliances before and will have them again... I have never had an issue with the Kenmore washer having any issues. This washer has a nice, sleek design and easy to use dials and knobs. It is also easy to read... No need to go find your glasses to start it. We bought our Kenmore washer at Sears and the associate that helped us was very helpful in finding what we needed and how much we were willing to spend and we feel we got our moneys worth.

Kenmore brand was very pleasing and the quality was great. It lived up to it standards and I was very happy with the choice I made with choosing their product. I needed a washer and drying for my apartment I was moving into so I decided to look at some in Sears. Not only did they have a wide selection but the prices were decent and customer service was excellent. So I had a wonderful experience all the way around when I decided that I needed to purchase these two appliances.

I bought an $800 High Efficiency, 4.8 cf capacity washer (Paid $569.00 on sale and it some of the worst money spent) to wash the blankets I make. The machine rolls them into mushrooms and dumps any dirt, hair, etc. on top in a ring. Uses so little water that even on deep fill the clothes are NEVER covered with water. Socks come out looking like they were just worn. I have to spray all socks or they dont get even partly clean. Wont get sweat out unless you use an additive and if you use more than 1/8th cup of detergent, the machine will run for hours. The only way to get water to cover the clothes is to add it. I have to pour three gallons of water in if I want clean clothes. Sears repairman said many of his customers keep a bucket by the machine to add water. There is no deep fill for permanent press or half the other cycles so permanent press is never really clean. DONT ever use bleach as it stays in the washer and ruins the following loads. You cant re-spin if it doesnt get the clothes dry enough, without using a rinse cycle.Quite an experience if it goes out of balance. Getting it to stop spinning means stopping the machine, waiting for the door to unlock and dodging the machine as it takes time to respond. By the way, unless you buy a service contract, if Sears decides its working properly, you have to pay per the Department head at the Sears I bought the machine from. Avoid at all costs. Keep the old one running until you cant buy parts.

Purchased the washer used and it still worked well for a few years. Bought a new LG as a replacement and hate it. Will be going back to Kenmore in the near future when we purchase a new house. We will also purchase a Kenmore washer, even though the LG is less than two years old.

Our machine is an older model, but it handles everything I pack it with! When its time to replace it, I will definitely consider the company. My clothing comes out clean, and the songs are straightforward.

The washer is amazing. It has different spin cycles depending on your preference. It is able to get my clothes nice and clean in a timely manner. The appearance is pretty common. It has the knobs at the top and the washer opens up the normal. The washer is very reliable and I have had not one single problem with it. When I need my clothes done in a hurry it gets the job done very quickly. It is of a good value because of different key components. Some are how the washer works, what are the different features and the look of it.

The washer is making noise and I am not happy with the product. It is not leveling and it has mold problems. I would like a new washer.

This washer had a strong agitation cycle and I never needed a repair. Easy to use knobs. Never had to explain how to turn it on. My clothes always came out smelling good and looking fresh. I could wash a decent sized load of dirty clothes in this washer. I never needed a repair and the agitation was strong and reliable. The water flowed freely and the knobs were easy to understand. This washer was a simple washer in looks. Even though I could have gone for something more spacey and futuristic in looks I was very happy with its performance and easy to understand knobs. Looks arent everything. I think in this day and age we spend too much money on things that break down over time. This washer was sturdy and reliable and I never needed a repair so I am satisfied with the amount of money I paid for it.

My husband and I purchased a Kenmore washer in 2012. This washer has broke down 3 to 4 times. We called Sears. They repaired it the 1st 2 times. They fixed at it. The next time it broke down it flooded our hardwood floor. We called Sears. They transferred us to LG. After a long drawn out progress they finally paid for the damage, and repaired the same problem. We asked if they could replace our washer so no. Meanwhile when they fixed our washer it cause the washer to leak some type of grease on our clothes. When we reported this Sears said it wasnt anything they could do. The bleach ring has rusted. Now the washer has broken again. Sears claim our extended warranty has expired, but for $39.00 a month they can come service the washer and fix the problem up to $500.00. Remember we only had this washer 5 years.

DO NOT BUY ONE OF THESE WASHING MACHINES(Kenmore Elite )! Since the very first day we brought this piece of crap home, it has been nothing but frustrating! Its very rare when the cycle completes without it stopping because it is barely out of balance! I load the clothes as evenly as is humanly possible! Also, the clothes often come out NOT clean and sometimes have soap on them (I do NOT use too much). Prior to purchasing this washer, my husband and I talked to the salesman extensively about this washing machine to ensure that we were buying a decent one--obviously he had no clue. SUPER ANNOYING.Miss my old one, and miss the days of old when washing machines and appliances in general were well made, and made to last! I called the Sears company that sold me this, but they could care less that I am not satisfied in the slighted way! They said I load it wrong. REALLY!? DO YOUR HOMEWORK AND RESEARCH ONLINE. DO NOT GET FEEDBACK FROM THE SALES PEOPLE AT THE STORE!

The Kenmore washer I had was a hard-working, efficient machine. I had no problems with it at all. I bought it at an estate sale when it was about five years old. It performed perfectly for about ten years. When I sold my house the new owners requested the washing machine be included in the sale as they knew the glowing record of kenmore appliances and wanted a washer they could depend on.

I would have to say I love my Kenmore washer as its reliable, dependable and its performance is great. The family gives it a beating but it works great every time for us. Our Kenmore takes quite the abuse from our large family but it cleans reliable every time. I would recommend this brand of washer to any family in need of a durable and consistent washer. Its modern, high efficiency, digital readouts make it an outstanding washer to use. I like that I can see the settings in the dark as Im up all night due to our large family. The reliability and consistency of our Kenmore washer is outstanding. It energy efficiency makes it a great value for our carbon footprint and our wallets too!

The washer quit draining and shows F51 and F34 codes. Following the trouble shooting info the company tried to hide from the customers inside, the washer showed the machine control board needed to be replaced. A quick internet search showed hundreds of complaints about the same thing. A recall was set up for some washers, but many others with the same problem are not included in it. If someone pays for a top end product, they should not receive a poorly designed/built pile of junk. This washer should be sold for $100 at Wal-Mart, and even then it might not be a good deal.

Kenmore Front-loading Automatic Washer Model #796.4127 - We purchased our washer about a yr and a half ago. Hate it on SO many levels. I thought it would be great for bedding and such but NOTHING comes clean. I can wash my husbands work shirts and after they are washed and dried I can still smell his cologne on the shirts. We live on the water and I lost my top loader in a hurricane which caused our basement to flood. I was overjoyed thinking I could finally buy a front loader and that it would be so much better. I wish I could turn back the hands of time and know then what I know now because I would have bought another top loader for sure. You just cant get clothes clean without an agitator! And the SMELL!!! OMG it is HORRIBLE! It has this little drain tube you have to drain every couple of weeks, you cant leave the door closed or the smell is disgusting, but then you worry about the rubber seal drying out. I hate this washer on so many levels it isnt funny. Would NOT recommend it even to my worst enemy. Laundry is enough of a chore without having to wait almost 2 hours to wash a load on the heavy setting but if you dont set it to that, nothing comes clean. Heck even on the heavy setting, it still comes out as stained as it went in. I use a laundry pretreat and that helps a little but if you are thinking of buying this, change your mind and RUN!!!

I have had this washer fixed twice. It doesn’t clean as well. I get frustrated...no more insurance for machine. Will check which wash is better next time. I bought the soap which is recommended for the washer and still get frustrated.

Kenmore Washer 80 Series - Horrible, horrible washing machine. Tears up all my clothes. Everything gets caught in the bottom of the agitator. I have holes in my clothes, holes in my towels, and holes in my sheets. I basically cant agitate anything and instead just soak the stains out and spin it dry. There should have been a recall on this machine. I have lost a lot of money in clothing and linen items that this machine has ruined.

I purchased my Kenmore Heavy-Duty washer and dryer set the next week available after I got married in Feb 1976 (seventy-six). That makes it about mid-March 1976. Here now in Jan 2020 I can truthfully say that I never had one speck of trouble from the set until now when the washer stopped draining. Having a Sears repairman respond to fix the problem revealed that it cannot be repaired. I must now try to find another Kenmore Washer. Admittedly, I did not use it on any routine regularity and once not used at all when in an apartment without a hookup for a couple years. But, I suspect I won't need it to last as many as 44 more years since I'm now 73 years old. It worked just great for me!

Overall, my Kenmore washer was very efficient and helpful in meeting my needs. It also fits my need as far as space and energy saving. Moreover, they are clean, appealing and easy to maintain. I recommend that you buy Kenmore appliance products because they are very durable and trustworthy. The name has a reputation backed by good standing and Kenmore produce a sufficient warranty on their products.

Mechanically, the machine works fine. Design wise, the agitator does not do a very good job. As a result, a large load does not get agitated very well. I am often forced to split loads in order to get clothes clean.

I purchased a Kenmore washing machine almost 2 years ago… I’ve had at least four service calls on it and has a clicking sound all hours of the day and night. They have been out to my house numerous times. They’ve replaced everything they say electronically the problem has gone away for about six months. Now it started again… I don’t even want to bother with them anymore so I just prop up the lid door so I don’t hear the sound in the middle of the night. Other than that it cleans fantastically. Was so much less soap and so much less water, Kenmore model number 110.25132411!

This washer works well because it has many adjustable settings so that you can choose the wash cycle that would be best for your load of laundry. The drum can hold a large load of clothing, so that way you dont have to do many loads, but can do one large load. Its very reliable. Ive had this washer for 8 years and its still going strong. It has yet to give me any sort of trouble. It is durable, and long-lasting. The appearance of this washer is good. Its very clean and simple looking, and easy to understand. The layout of the knobs and dials are well laid out so that anyone would be able to understand how to start a load of laundry. This is a valuable piece of machinery. Not only is it affordable, but it is well worth the price. It is sturdy and reliable, and can wash a heap-load of laundry.

This is the worst washer I have ever owned, it is always going unlevel. I have had it four or five years and the tub has already been replaced once. I dont think any of the new washers with this type of tub and ball as a ringer are any count. They need to go back to the old washers.

It does not clean very well. It also stopped working multiple times. It leaked water consistently as well. Sometimes it would make very loud beating noises as it was spinning. It would work when it wanted to. About half of the time it would not work. It was always being repaired. It was not a very good machine. It looked like any other washer out there. But it was lacking in options to choose from. However, it did have the basics in order to get the job done. It did not cost any less than most other brands. I feel that if I had spent the same amount on another brand, that I would have a working machine.

I put a twin sized comforter in the Kenmore Elite Series 700 washer by itself because it had throw up on it. I washed it under the bulky/bedding option and selected all of the options it would allow me to (prewash, fabric softener, rinse twice, and stain boost- I would have selected deep fill as well but it wont allow you to when you are running the bulky/bedding setting) and it still had throw up caked up on it when I took it out!!! ALL OF MY CLOTHES HAVE STAINS ON THEM NOW BECAUSE THIS WASHER DOES NOT WASH! I talked to the people at SEARS about this and they agreed that something must be wrong with it since it came out with throw up still on it and told me to have a service guy come look at it. So I did and the guy told me himself that he agrees that the top load agitator-less washers dont clean worth crap. He said this model here is not made for washing blankets or comforters or rugs or pillows- its just not made for that- it wont get them clean so I asked him if it says that it doesnt wash blankets (...etc.) anywhere in the description of the product because had it said that we would not have bought it (for 650$!) because we wash a lot of those things and need them to actually get clean!!! And you know what he had the audacity to say to me?!? He said well ya- just like it doesnt specifically say that you cant wash concrete blocks in it neither. So I said ok but who would even try to wash concrete blocks? He then said its just a common sense thing. CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?!? Instead of admitting that they have been selling a less than perfect appliance and showing some integrity by making things right, they are getting over on us all and will Im sure go out of business soon here. I will be suing.

Worked well enough for the price. Both were basic models with no bells nor whistles and they performed their jobs well. Neither were energy efficient but lasted many years and showed no sign of breaking down. They performed their jobs well. Got clothes clean and dry. Couldnt ask for much else considering the price.

It washes the clothes really well and is very quiet. However you cant add anything once it starts which can be inconvenient at times. I seem to always find a stray towel. The Kenmore washer is very durable. I have not had any problems with it performance wise since I bought it. Everything looks like it was made very solid and built to last. The Kenmore washer has a very modern and trendy look. I really like the glass front door. It is especially nice if your home is like mine and you dont have a traditional laundry room. It was a bit pricier than some of the other models I was looking at but overall for the features and look I think it was a very good deal.

This model is my first front loader washing machine. I had heard of many problems with these but have only encountered one - if I dont religiously wipe the door inside and leave it open for a few hours, it develops a nasty sour smell. Otherwise, it does a good job of cleaning my clothes and uses a whole lot less water. I am still evaluating this machine but so far, so good.

The washer seems to handle large loads with ease and gets the toughest dirt out. Its very user-friendly and easy to use. I would recommend this one to anybody. Usually this could fit all my daily items. My family and I go through many clothes weekly so we had to gave a large capacity washer. This one fits the bill perfectly. It is modern-looking and modular. It gets within my laundry room decor without looking too blocky or white even though that is exactly what it is. The value here is super great. It is a good washer that Ive used for many years. If you amortize the cost over a period of useful years you will get out of it, you will get a daily cost of only a few pennies. Who couldnt afford that?

We have purchased 2 separate Kenmore Power Miser 55 gal water heaters, warranty for 6 yrs, both have consistently failed from leaking tanks after 4 yrs, even though properly installed with water softener, pressure reducing valves and expansion tank. Warranty for first was honored after an $89.00 service charge to verify failure, and a replacement heater (less efficient and smaller capacity) was provided, and they did ship it to our home. We recycled the failed one. When the second one failed, same $89.00 service charge, and an offer for the same less efficient smaller unit was made ---- however, this time they are out of stock and it will be more than a month before available. In addition, they require that we travel over 20 miles to pick it up ourselves and MUST return the defective water heater to them at that time which requires disconnection of it leaving the wiring and plumbing dangling in the meantime, and loading it ourselves, at a couple 100 lbs or more. Clearly this is a ploy to discourage using the warranty----never in my life have I seen a store require to return of a defective water heater. In their defense, they did offer delivery for a $125.00 (which was no charge last time). The manager at the pick-up Sears outlet also seems to specialize in rudeness when dealing with him. The entire experience with both the heaters and Sears has been terrible!

I purchased a Kenmore washing machine just about three years ago, series 700 high efficiency model one year ago I had to replace the pump. In the last month it started making loud noises when in the spin cycle that started to get louder. I made an appointment with a reliable repair center that I have successfully used in the past and are very knowledgeable. The mechanic that came and looked at it said the bearings are worn out and it would cost 600 dollars to replace them. That is almost what I paid for the machine.I contacted Kenmore and asked if they can offer me some kind of help considering its only three years old and I feel that it should have lasted longer than that, we are only two people in the house. They offered me a 75.00 voucher towards a new one. Im disappointed and feel that since I bought the machine thinking it was a well known name they would offer a little more than what amounts to a Sunday sale price. I recently purchased another machine and sorry to say that I would not buy another Kenmore product.

Have had this machine longer than I have ever owned one and I do 3 or more loads a day. Prior to this one I had 2 others and they went in a matter of 6 years. It is important to buy quality appliances.

Simple to use and starts and dries quickly. Kenmore one of the best brands on the market. Very efficient and water and electricity conscious. Like the options. Had for years - never had an issue. Never has needed to be fixed. It dries in proper time. Washer is water efficient. Kenmore offers great warranties and doesnt cost a lot extra for the warranty. ust typical white appliances. Looks not important. It needs to wash and dry which it does. If people are talking about the look of my washer they are nuts. You get what you pay for and more. Kenmore is the best brand on the market. Theyre reliable. They will fix it when it needs to be fixed with the warranties.

Kenmore top loading high efficiency washer model 110.2810 - We purchased this washing machine from Sears for $750 on 12/2/2012 and did not purchase the extended warranty. It is now less than two years old and I came home the other day to find my basement flooded because the outer drum of the machine cracked. The repair person said he could not believe what he saw with this broken part and he felt this was clearly a manufacturers defect. It will cost $600 to repair my 2 year old washing machine. I called Sears to request that they supply the part for free so that I only needed to pay for the repair itself of $300 and was told I needed to call the manufacturer Kenmore. When I called the phone number that was posted by Kenmore I was told that I needed to contact the manufacturer directly as they could not help me. I told them that I thought I did call the manufacturer and they told me that I called Sears. I told them I got the phone number off of the Kenmore website and they said yes, they post that number but its actually to Sears. What kind of customer service is this? They then transferred me to Whirlpool who manufactures Kenmore. After talking with the rep at Whirlpool, she said they no longer manufacture Kenmore and that I need to call Sears because they sold it to me. This is a terrible way to do business. It would be nice if they would manufacture a reliable product that you do not need to purchase an extended warranty for an amount that costs half the price of the machine itself. They do this apparently because they know they are manufacturing a substandard product. This is an American based company and this is truly an embarrassment for our country to have such poor manufacturing supported by even worse customer service. I would sincerely hope that management takes a better look into how they continue to do business.

We purchased the Kenmore Elite Dishwasher, 2 days after the warranty expired, the whole top rack stopped working, needed a technician to come out and charged us another $200 in parts plus the $59 service fee. 6 months later, there is water leaking all over the floor... the motor pump! Been trying to get someone out, they are happy to charge me for an extended warranty that is $222.99 that only covers up to $500 in parts. Have been on hold for over 1hour 43 minutes, been transferred a million times and hung up on twice when asked to speak to a manager. WORST decision ever!!! Sears is the such a joke, will never buy anything form them again. Kenmore is a piece of junk!!! Couldnt be more disappointed!!! Save yourself and your wallet the agony and RUN out of the doors of Sears.

It could be a bit larger but it dries the clothes in a good amount of time with few issues. Goes well with our washer. No major problems. No major issues, does the job with out any problems. I would recommend it to others. Works well with the washer without need for major repairs. It actually has a plain appearance. We didnt buy it to show off but to dry the clothes which it does very well. No problems with how it looks. It was a very good price and since it does a very good job of drying the clothes, we believe that it is a very good value. No issue with the cost.

Clothes were always thoroughly washed. It also wasnt that loud and washing time was adequate. The problem was that after 3-4 years I had trouble with it and water started to leak and my clothes would come out smelling weird. The first years the washing machine is excellent but a couple years later it starts to leak and your clothes dont come out clean. Especially in my condition, water would leak and it also stopped spinning. Luckily I knew someone who fixes them so I still use it. The appearance is okay. I really like how its white and the window is there to see if your clothes are ready. The size is okay. Its not too big or too small either. Im a little disappointed at the price it was when we got it. The reason is because it ended up needing repairs a few years later. If it would have lasted longer I wouldnt complain.

I bought a new Kenmore washer 7/2011. It will not rinse in the normal and heavy duty cycles but rinses normally in the casual cycle. The repairman was prompt and knowledgeable – no complaints there but he told me that was what the washing machine was programmed to do. So, I am only able to wash laundry on the casual cycle in this new machine. Someone, please explain that to me! I will never buy another one from Sears!

We bought 2 Kenmore Stacked Washer/Dryer units (Gas) for our newly remodeled laundry room 3 1/2 years ago. One washer unit needed to be repaired after 2 years and now has broken down completely. The other washer unit is now having issues and the repair company told us it would be too expensive to repair and we’d be better off buying a new unit. So after 3 1/2 short years, we are forced to buy 2 new units!! We definitely will not be buying Kenmore but are going to try Whirlpool brand and pay $195 extra for the five year extended warranty since it seems things aren’t made to last anymore!! I will never buy Kenmore again!!

I wasnt pleased with new front loader. After writing complaints Sears came through and I now can say they stand by their products. Thank you!

It does a great job at washing heavy loads. It washes fast and is not too noisy. It also lasts for years. Once you buy a Kenmore you will not need another washer for a long long time. It works very well. It is very heavy duty and built very high quality. It has never broken down. I had it for about 10 years before I needed a new one. It is very clean and modern looking, and easy to use. It has just the right amount of features without being overwhelming and there are no features that are not needed or that I do not use.

Is great brand and clean and dry very well my clothes, is very impressive how this machine are working. The shape is very outstanding and trusted very effective, expensive. I cant live without this two machine. I recommend to everyone.

Our Kenmore washer, purchased in 2006, stopped working recently. Error code F22 appeared on the front panel which is a door latch failure. I ordered another latch and installed it myself. When I attempted to operate the washer the latch immediately failed again and gave the F22 code. I then called Sears appliance repair. When they finally showed up, the technician put a new latch assembly in and it too immediately failed. He said the controller was sending a continuous latch signal which destroys the latch and that I would need a new controller and latch. We had purchased an extended warranty for $319.00 which would cover up to $500.00 in repairs but the price he quoted went beyond that by $287.00. I saw no other choice so I authorized the repair. After the technician left, I looked on the Sears parts website to compare the part prices he had quoted us and found that the repair guys price was double the price Sears quoted. I called the technician to ask him why and he said he had no control over pricing and that I would have to complain to Sears. The Sears rep told me that the repair people get their parts from a different source. I told him there was no way I was going to pay double and asked for a refund on the parts and cancelled the warranty. I eventually received my two refunds. As of this writing, I still have no functional washing machine.

I am convinced that Kenmore service reps are trained to deny any problem with this washer, as well as the reps that handle setting up service calls. My machine (11066132*410) has, since the first dark load, left clothes covered in a white/gray residue that must also be covering light clothes just that it isnt as apparent. We have followed several different suggested procedures to try and clean the tub, but nothing has worked. We have encountered nothing but indifference and rudeness... Finally it was claimed that we had been responsible. Puleeeze... Stay away from Kenmore.

Very effective on hard stains. A little loud but easy to understand directions. Allowed for fairly large loads and was gentle on delicate clothes. Could be overloaded in washer if not careful then it would not move very well. Very reliable. Was pretty fast and did a nice job with all sorts of stains. Appearance was nice and smooth. The controls were easy to use and understand. The door was smooth but closed fast with a slam if you were not careful. Value was fine. I feel like I always pay more for a product than what I should. But for what I needed and how it worked it was worth the price.

I bought washer 8/23/13. I had repairman out 9/10/14, again 11/10/14 and again 11/19/14. The second visit he was 4 hours late, without a call, or I apologize. Ask for different repairman for 4/26/15. One came, stated washer was fixed and drove away. Put clothes in washer and it will not work. I have used Kenmore products forever. I totally do not understand what is happening to your company. I pay for warranty services to no avail. I would never recommend your products again, unless someone comes and does a proper job that you can take pride in. This has been the most frustrating experience.

It cleaned without extra cycles and the multiple settings were enough for all my cleaning needs. The tub was a little small, but I usually wash a few times a week anyway so this was not a problem. I never had any issues over the life of the washer, it always worked well, and was consistent from day one. I had to replace the belt one time in all the years I have owned it. It is classic white and I never worried about the looks. It is easy to clean, and stable where it was put. For the price it works great. It is easy to maintain the ability to somewhat overload, and have clean clothes that have not been destroyed is a tribute to the brand.

The machines are reliable and very useful to use. They are dependable and you can expect your clothes to come totally clean... and your machine will not tear down on you. They can keep your clothes as bright and clean as expected.

This HE washer is built like a truck and has been consistently reliable for the past nine years. It offers water settings from light to heavy loads with the options of extended spin and double rinse. There are five settings for water temperature from cold to very hot. It is quiet in operation and easy to clean. I have never needed a service call.

Good delivery from Sears. Great product so far. Very quiet and washes thoroughly. Large capacity for 10 or more pairs of mens jeans which came out squeaky clean. Also using double rinse. Love these features.

It may be a little difficult to understand what each button does when you first get it, but its really easy to learn and it is very good at what it does. Were in a family of six and it can still hold all of our lights, darks, jeans, etc. Unless your family is massive, there will definitely be enough space for your clothes. Appearance-wise its a little bland. Personally one with a more chrome-like appearance would look nicer. It was definitely a good price for how good of a washing machine it is. Im not going to say it cant be a little cheaper, but it doesnt bother me quite as much with how well it does overall.

Without an agitator the clothes do not come clean. Dah, I should have thought of that before I bought it, I know an appliance repair guy that his wife even got rid of her agitatorless machine. Thats how bad they are.

We purchased a Kenmore series 300 washing machine in September 2015. It was our first Kenmore we have ever purchased in over 55 years. The machine is terrible. The tub design causes the machine to vibrate severely even with medium loads. It doesnt clean the clothes very good and my wife has to run clothes through the rinse cycle at least twice and even then there is soak in the clothes. We would definitely not recommend Kenmore to anyone, especially this machine.

Absolute piece of junk. This dumb washer was built WITHOUT a central agitator. Bad, bad idea since the clothes get all jumbled up to one side of the washer. Glad Sears isnt around any more in my town since they sold junk!

It is pretty good. Gets the clothes clean. The washer works pretty quietly and efficiently - it is reliable. It is ready when I need it. It starts easily and is easy to use. It does not require a lot of work or maintenance. So it is easy to throw in load of laundry and go do something else. The washer is ok looking - it is classic looking - white and clean looking - simple not complicated. It does not take a lot of spaces - fits in corner nicely. It is a good value - if I had to take laundry out it would take so much of my precious time - it is so much easier to be able to do laundry at home.

This washer performed very well. At times, the rotation device in the center would come unbound, but it is an easy fix. Overall, it is cost efficient and relatively compact for our living area and Im enjoying it. I have plenty of laundry to do, and this washer can hold it all. It has never need anything but a do it yourself repair. The washer is very good at washing. I dont enjoy cubical shapes as I have an unnatural fear of them (my doctor told me). Other than the shape, the color is good and it can fit into any reasonably colored room. For all of the use I got out of it, I would say it is underpriced. It is really that good.

Kenmore Elite top loading washing machine - This washing machine is less than 6 years old and for the past year it would imbalance when heading into the final spin cycle following the rinse cycle. I tested it with nothing in the machine and it still imbalanced. In researching the problem on the internet I found that this problem is not unique to my machine.The response from what is termed a community expert is that the entire tub needs to be replaced, which would at that time (2011) cost $212, not counting labor costs.The frequency of occurrence would suggest that this is a design or manufacturing flaw. This floating tub design actually seems illogical and destined for failure. Although these washers are listed as canyon capacity washers, I can only guess that in reality bulky loads can imbalance the washer to where it in some way disfigures the tub or the mechanism stabilizing it. The bottom line being, buyer beware. I know I will not purchase another Kenmore product.
