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.

I grew up in a family that always used Kenmore appliances so my owning them is just natural. The Kenmore name carries the value. And people I talk to and with feel that Kenmore is a workhorse that makes it a good value. I have kids and animals so laundry is a daily chore. I like that I can wash jeans, towels, blankets and comforters and they come out clean and unharmed. Theres too many times I have used washers that dont always clean consistently but this is one of the best and most reliable. It is very nice looking, too. I have a laundry closet right off my kitchen and it fits in well with my other appliances when the closet doors are open. The dials are sleek looking and very easy to use.

I will NEVER purchase nor will I recommend Kenmore Elite Stainless Steel appliances. First, the only stainless steel which exists is in the handles on all appliances, everything else is cheap metal. I bought in 2016 the Side-by-Side (both doors developed rust spots within one month), Dishwasher (outside door) developed rust spots, Microwave/Oven combo (both doors) developed rust spots, and Gourmet Hood, which developed rust spots and the lights no longer work. All I did was use the cleaner, which came with the appliances. I built a brand new house and everything within one month had rust. I called Sears, well, guess what, I was over my 30 days so NO WARRANTY on the rust. I called the store and Were sorry to hear that. No discount on my full purchase price either. My husband, who is a builder, said they are more than likely storing the appliances in a damp warehouse and its cheap metal, as steel doesnt rust. In the past, I purchased GE Profile and no problems. Here I have a new house with old looking appliances.

Its very efficient and dries all clothes and towels very well. I dont have to restart it for a full load to dry all the way. Works very well. We purchased it a while ago and its still working very well. Easy to install and it for well in our area downstairs to wash the clothes and towels and blankets. Matches our washer as all appliances we currently have are white. Its not big so theres lots of extra room around our laundry area. Love the size. We spent below expected budget and got a great machine for the value. It fits large loads including more than one blanket to put in at a time.

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.

Kenmore 700 series washing machine top load with glass lid - DO NOT buy this washing machine! It doesnt put enough water in to wash anything. I tried to wash 5 pair of VERY dirty jeans and they still had clumps of mud on them. I washed a load of towels and the towels absorbed all the water that was dispensed, and the Tide Pod was not completely dissolved! Even using deep fill it will dispense only 3 of water into the tub. I can get it to fill 3 times dispensing 3 of water each time if I stand there and hit the deep fill button, open and close the lid and who has time for that. I am having Sears come and replace this piece of junk Friday!

During the time we used this washer, I was completely happy with its performance. It got my clothes clean and I had no issues whatsoever. It didnt have all the bells and whistles that todays washers have, but I feel like they werent necessary. The washer was reliable and got the job done! Our old washer lasted for years. I dont remember ever having to call the repairman. I never had a minutes stress at having to find somewhere else to wash my clothes. Id put in the clothes, detergent, press the buttons and the washer did its job! The washer had a quality look to it. It was simple, without a lot of dashboard buttons, and I liked the clean, white finish and simplicity of the machine. I definitely was proud to own this washer. The Kenmore washer we owned was a great value for the purchase price. It wasnt a high end purchase, but suited to our budget, and because of the way it performed, I would not have needed to spend any extra money to get what I wanted.

The washer is easy to use and has every function you could need. It effectively and efficiently cleans clothes and does the job. It can also fit everything needed and is easy to load. It is reliable and well made so worrying about issues is not necessary. All of the functions are easy to read so you can be sure you are doing what you want, too. Lastly, the washer is a good value. I got what I expected for the price that I paid. I would recommend this washer to others if they needed one.

I was not in the market for a high end, or fashionable looking washer with added features. I just wanted a washer that would allow me to wash my clothes and nothing else. Kenmore was the type of washing machine that was capable of regular to large loads of clothes without having the question or doubt in my mind to want to switch to another brand. I was able to do the normal washing that I was doing. Also, it was very reliable and needed no professional over to fix and broken parts that would cost me more than what I was willing to pay out of pocket expenses for. The price I paid was so inexpensive. If I had the money today I would buy me the same model and brand without worrying about how much it cost.

I have had bad experiences with Whirlpool washers in the past. Less than five years ago, we decided to purchase a new washer since our two-year old Whirlpool washer was giving us endless problems. We purchased a Kenmore Elite from Sears. We did not know that our washer was actually a Whirlpool washer. We have started with the same problems with this washer as we did with our Whirlpool washer. I just learned that our machine was actually manufactured by Whirlpool. I was told by Kenmore that other Kenmore Elite washing machines were recalled with the same problem, but does not include my model.I was transferred to so many different places, including Maytag (why Maytag?) to try to resolve my problem. If my machine is having the same problem as those other models that were recalled, there is a great chance that mine should be included in the recall. I never got to speak to the right department. The repair is costing me half of what I would have to pay for a new one. Now, I dont know where to go to get a reliable washing machine. I thought that paying a descent amount was going to give me a descent working machine. I believe that disclosing the manufacturer on appliances should be required because not everything that shines is gold. A reliable brand on the outside is not always what you get on the inside!

Has good size door for easy loading and unloading. Has good selection of cycles to choose from, though I do not use some of them. I really like the ability to choose water temperature for both washing and rinsing. I have had it for over tens years now and it has never once failed me. I have never had any reason to feel it was not completely reliable. I take for granted that it will work properly every time I use it. I have a white model, which I prefer so, I can easily change the laundry room decor if I wish. It is designed well and has not gotten outdated in its look over the past ten years. This washer was an excellent value for me. It has all the features I wanted and more at a more reasonable price than many of the other products I looked at. I did a lot of shopping around and price comparison.

Kenmore has quick and efficient, reliable, easy to use products that make my life easier. I can always count on my Kenmore washer to get my laundry sparkling. Ive never had a problem with my Kenmore. Ive had it two years and have never had to have a repair performed. A great reliable durable product! Granted I did not buy the washer because of its looks but it is nice that it is sleek enough to look right almost anywhere in my home. Much more pleasant to look at than others! Sometimes, paying a little more is the smart investment. Kenmore may be a little more expensive than LG etc but the quality makes it worth every extra nickel!

This is the worst appliance Ive ever had. Theyre coming out again but Im not sure what else they can do since theyve already replaced everything possible. Piece of garbage.

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.

My Sears Kenmore Elite washer will not get out stains. To be fair the unit
My Sears Kenmore Elite washer will not get out stains. To be fair the unit is out of warranty but is only a year and a half old. Because of health issues, I didnt start getting clothes dirty until this spring. It will not remove simple stains like dirt and when I started started to smell some clothes, they didnt smell clean coming right out of the machine. For example my socks smelled as bad coming out of the wash as they did going in. I would think it would be unsanitary to wear clothes that are not clean. When I purchased the the set online in September 2012, they were giving it a 5 star rating. I looked at past models and they only showed 3 stars but this was a new model and I assumed improvements had been made. Looking online today, Consumer Reports gives it a 53 rating out of 100 and others rate it 3.2 out of 10 and even Sears rates it low and the biggest complaint was that it didnt get out stains or get clothes clean in general. I first called the 800 number Customer Service number in the book and the person that I spoke too suggested that I try to purchase an extended warranty then break the machine on purpose and see if they replace it. As bad as this sounds I do think she was trying to help knowing they would not do anything with it being out of warranty. Then I called Sears the first thing that they said is that is was a LG machine, and the second thing was that it was out of warranty and they would do nothing to help me. I then called customer service who said the same until I told them I would cancel my Sears Card. At that point, I was transferred to Customer Retention who eventually decided to send a technician to my house and some negotiation waved the service charge. I did ask him to speak with the service technician on the phone before he made the appointment because I thought he would be wasting him time after reading all the online information that says it just doesnt clean. The conversation didnt happen and the next morning about 8:45, the service technician called and asked me what was wrong with the washer. I told him it didnt get clothes clean. Then he started to say that I needed special laundry soap and that I shouldnt use fabric softener. Anyhow he declined to come because like me, I thought the machine was working as designed but wouldnt get all clothes clean. He eventually told me thank and added it was because the washer didnt use enough water to clean clothes. I called Sears later and told them what had happened and they would not help me and that case # ** would be closed. I did at that point close my Sears account. I did call Sears again to get an address to send information from Small Claims Court. I then decided to send an email to LG to see if they might help since it is manufactured by them and it is their design. The very first thing they said was that it was a Kenmore and that it was a Sears. I sent them back a reply asking them several questions including who did the design, hold the pattern, and the drawings. I didnt receive a response. I did call an 800 number and talk to someone who did give me an address so that the court could get them information. So I am looking into taking both companies to Small Claims Court together so that a Judge may decide who should lose $1029 for a product that doesnt clean.

This washer has a generally attractive appearance. When I originally bought this washer it was on sale and I think I am satisfied with the value of it.

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 wish I had read all these reviews before I spent my money on the Sears Kenmore Elite washer. My Husband passed away and my Daughters family invited me to live with them. I offered to do the laundry for the family and with 7 people I started to shop for a large capacity washer. I had had Sears washers in the past and never had a problem so when I went into the Sears store the sales person showed me the Kenmore Elite and told me It was what I was looking for. I was so excited and when it came 2 young men came in and threw it in place and hooked up the water and out they went. I put my first load in and within minutes I got the UE. I looked in the book to see what to do. I did not realize that it would keep filling up with water. I called a repair person and they told me I could fill the washer clear to the top. He balanced it and found that the men that hooked it up had the cold and hot water switched.I have had my Kenmore Elite for nearly two years. I can not leave the washer because I constantly have to stop it and readjust the clothes. I had a repair person out again this past week. The one that came on February 18th told me mix the loads. It would make it better on weight. February 26 another repair man came and replaced parts. He told me I should only fill the washer 1/2 and I should ball each piece of clothes and put them on the outside of the drum not putting any thing in the middle and only wash towels with towels and jeans with jeans. He said if these parts do not work for me there is not much else they can do to help. Wow. The cost of the washer and warranty. A lot of money. I will spread the word not to buy a Sears product again.

The washers performance I would have to say is one of the best that I have seen before. Presoaks pre-rinse, the cycles lasts long enough that I know without a doubt everything is getting good and agitated and that my clothes are definitely coming out clean. Plus this washer also has a self cleaning cycle so that I dont have to figure out how to clean it myself, it does it for me. Plus there is gentle cycle, permanent cycle, heavily soiled, small, medium, large and oversized weights for whatever size you are loading into the machine. Since no pur based the machine 2 to 3 three years ago I have yet to have a single issue with it. No matter how much has been shoved into its never gotten off balance, never slung the laundry all to one side. It has kept it evenly distributed through the inside of the tub itself. And though it is self cleaning none not once has a single line that is attached to the machine has never gotten clogged up. I like the fact that its white, can be a hassle to keep cleaned but if properly taken care of very pretty. And will remain that way if properly maintained. But my favorite feature is that it has a clear glass, self locking lid that can be seen through. So instead of wondering if its actually doing what its supposed to do like with the older ones with a solid a lid you can just look down into and seen that it is working just fine.

I purchased the Kenmore Elite washer June 9th, 2011... Model 79629272900. It cost approximately 1,100. I was very satisfied at first because of its large capacity size. Then I was soon to notice it doesnt clean clothes properly. The simplest stains dont come out. The main reason for my complaint is that a washer a few years old shouldnt have rust anywhere... It has rusted at the lid and all around bleach dispenser. I contacted Sears and then they give me the phone number to customers solutions. That didnt get me anywhere. I was referred back to Sears. The washer should have been recalled. I dont feel like any washer should cause your clothes to get rust all over them.

It washes the clothes nicely without taking much time and without making much noise as was the case with my previous washer. The delicate wash keeps my clothes safe and there is also a separate dispenser for the fabric softener and bleach. Since it has been purchased recently, cant tell much about the reliability but havent had any problems till now and expect that will not have any issues in future too. Would have loved if there was an option of black or silver grey. I have the basic white which is not very attractive and also doesnt match with the other appliances in the house. Have compared with most of the other brands for which I have other appliances. This one has a better value for money than most of the other brands.

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.

After 7 months from the Kenmore 3 year warranty, the washer is rapidly rust
After 7 months from the Kenmore 3 year warranty, the washer is rapidly rusting and chipping, on the top and under portion, in-between the detergent cup and bleach cup. The warranty for cosmetic was 3 years. When the tech came out to the house, he stated and proceeded to put in writing to Sears, this was not covered. The tech took pictures to back my complaint. The pictures never made it attached to the service order that Customer solutions department had received. The Customer Solutions representative, located in the Philippines, proceeded to tell me, I was not covered. The representative told me, he was only there to take my information; the representative CONFIRMED, Sears is aware of the problem and is NOT doing anything about the problem for their customers. Customer Solutions, DID NOT offer any type of solution.Every appliance in the house has been a Kenmore product; I put in a complaint, and of course, still waiting to get a return call. I expected Customer Solutions to have been in the United States. So very disappointed and irritated. Not looking for a brand new washer----just the replacement portion for the top. Because, Sears knows there is a problem.

The repair man came out again and said he had to order parts, as these were not kept in stock. When he finally finished with the repairs, he said that I had a new machine again, as he replaced everything including the motor.

But, I am very happy I spent my money on this washer as it helped a lot when it came to dirty or stained clothing. It was usually very good. Very well money spent indeed.

It doesnt clean the clothes if they have any kind of soil on them, I have to run them up to three times to get them clean.

(Google F35 error and youll see listings for several youtube videos which have thousands of views explaining the problem with these washers). There is a pressure sensor that is notorious for generating bad pressure reading and generating the dreaded SUDS and F35 error codes requiring frequent replacement of this $150 sensor. Poor engineering, or perhaps a scheme to generate recurring part sales. I will NEVER again buy a Kenmore product.

I do not like my washing machine. When it is finished washing there is one pieces of clothing that literally covers all the clothes and appears to tuck all the clothes in under it. Sometimes the piece on top is not totally wet and I wonder if it even got washed. Then I wonder if the ones under it got washed because they are so neatly tucked in. It looks like a loaf of bread waiting to rise in a bowl. I have been careful the way I load it, but it still comes out wrapped up, especially when I do sheets. The bottom sheet always wraps everything. I also have a problem with the dark load coming out with white spots. I use the All pods and have to cut the pod and put the detergent in the dispenser. And... the softener never completely empties.

We purchased the 500 series washer a little over 2 years ago, and have regretted it ever since. If I do anything bigger than a half load it becomes unbalanced and sounds like a helicopter landing in my house. When you pause to rebalance it takes a full ten minutes for the lid to open. I’ll never buy a Kenmore again...

So reliable we havent had any issues with it even with daily use for a family of 5. We have 3 dogs and it does great with the dog hair also. So cute. Fits in with all of our appliances. Love the design and load capacity. Its just the right size and the display is easy to read. I think its an excellent deal for what we paid. It has every feature we wanted at an affordable price. Great brand for your buck. The load size and look was cheap compared to other brands.

Never had a problem with this model. I enjoyed using it, and it always got the job done. Very satisfied. This model lasts a long time as well. Fits a weeks worth of laundry in one load. Never been unable to do laundry except for in power outages and thats expected to happen. Very reliable to me. Not an elegant design. Not very sleek. Looks like an average machine for a typical price. Simple and easy to clean. White matches my decor. Paid typical price for it. Didnt expect any specialty features, didnt get any. Im okay with that. Does the job I expect it to. Much laundry has been done in this machine. Worth it!

It cleans well, lots of options to ensure delicates are clean, safe, and not destroyed. Wash only takes about 35 minutes, is fast and water efficient. Never had a breakdown, although the front panel came loose and cannot be reattached. And the washer squeaks when it runs, although it is in the basement so we dont notice much. Got it on sale. Got a good deal using a coupon and credit card. It was the deciding factor on which washer to buy. Dont buy at retail price, unless you are Scrooge McDuck rich (but then you can just pay somebody to wash your clothes).

I have had this washer about seven years and I bought it used. To this day it still works. It is what I use weekly to do our laundry in. Im very satisfied with it. I can get a full load in there. Sometimes Ive overloaded it but other than that it works great as long as I dont have too many dirty clothes in. It does have a few nicks and dings in it. Couple of rough spots too but it washes out of clothes just fine and to me thats all that matters. Even though it is probably 15 years old I would say the value of it would be at least $100 because it works perfectly. I just pulled out a trash bag full of winter clothes with jeans and coats and was able to get a huge black trash bag washed into loads of laundry.

We bought a new Kenmore Elite Top Loading Washer 31522 in July of 2014. We noticed that the machine often generated a UE error and we had to redistribute the clothes. But it got where we could not even wash a load of sheets without having to redistribute the load 3 o 4 times. Sometimes just hit Drain and Spin just to complete the load. Even though Consumer Reports usually discourage buying an extended warranty we did buy one for 3 years. We called for a service rep to repair. On the day he arrived I had used my neighbors one year old Maytag which was very similar to mine and had zero problems with getting my laundry done. He said this would not happen with the Maytag b/c Maytag is made in USA and Kenmore is now made by LG in Korea. The repair man said he has to completely rebuild the machine and cost for labor and parts (8 parts) will be $1500.00. The machine costs $700.00. Why would Sears approve a $15000 repair that could buy 2 new machines? I told him that I have to use a laundromat frequently which gets to be expensive and very inconvenient. He said the parts he would be delivered and he would return in 9 days. Sears called on day 8 to cancel appt and left a number to reschedule. When I called to reschedule they said it was b/c their records indicate that all the parts were not delivered but I told her that UPS did deliver 5 additional boxes. I got an automatic call about an hour later saying I was the first appt for the next day between 10 and 12. No one came or called. I called and was told that it was cancelled and needed to be rescheduled b/c their records again indicated that we did not have the tub. We had to go through each piece we already received to confirm. The 3rd appt was made for a week later. We are still awaiting the delivery of the inner tub assembly from LG and fear that we will have to again reschedule. I called the sales agent who sold us the washer and asked for his assistance in getting a new machine. I was told that the only person who can decide if the machine can be condemned is the repairman. This does not seem right to me. Why would we ask the repairman who can charge for the repair be the one to decide if the machine should be fixed? Especially when repairs will be way more that the price of a new machine. I think we have a lemon. He was supposed to talk with his manager and get back to us but then heard nothing. I called again and he said his boss will contact us. Again heard nothing. I called again and had to leave a msg for the boss. The boss left a VMX saying he could not replace the machine, but have to wait for the repairman. I am very unhappy with the machine and especially with Sears.

I did my research before purchasing this set and pretty much is what the other reviews said it was. The tub in the washer is super big. I was able to wash a king size comforter in it with no problem. I had to take the time to read the booklet to find out what the buttons are for but it pretty easy to use. It looks good and was a great value, Im glad I bought this set. We bought this washer after our Maytag broke just 18 months after purchase, and a week behind on laundry I just wanted a washer. I figured this was the better value for the money versus the 3.6-cu ft Whirlpool, after reading the reviews maybe not. I dont mind the noise while going through the cycle as it is very comparable to our Maytag, same with cycle time. It is in a closet on our second floor and with the doors shut it did not bother us across the hall or downstairs underneath it. My complaint is that they say it can fit 3 baskets full of laundry and while that is true the spinning value at 660 was a major design error. The larger or heavy the load the more the clothes lack getting water out at the end, that will require a drain and spin cycle. Smaller loads come out as expected when the wash is complete and dry in average time. We plan to keep the washer as I am not usually a week behind in laundry and needing to do extra large loads, and I was pleased with the smaller load I did do. For people who are looking at this for the size of the wash bin and extra large loads are normal I would not recommend this, but for just us two it works fine. Kenmore, in the Whirlpool family, are durable, reliable and high-quality appliances with a long-standing history of satisfied customers. Easily and economically repaired if theres ever an issue, theyre an excellent value for the money. The Kenmores seem to last forever. If you do have a problem at some point, Sears has a great parts and service department.

Kenmore Elite Washer delivered in 8/2013. From day one it would stop mid cycle. Oct. 2014 got so fed up babysitting it to make sure it finished that I called for repair. Person said it was a common problem. Tightened wash plate and then sold me a Protection agreement. He said call whenever happens again. Feb 2015, they came out again for same problem. He said I had to ensure I only put like clothes together and that really it isnt a washer for just two people! He also decided to adjust one leg on the washer as he thought that may be an issue also.For the past two weeks, it has started not finishing cycles again, even though I have made sure I only wash like products together, ie jean only, towels only, sheets only, etc. Painful when there are only two of us. After babying this machine all day yesterday, I ran the clean washer cycle. It took three starts and stops. I then tried to do a drain spin to at least get the water out.This morning, I called the repair number for them to come out. This is now the third time on this machine. They are dispatching tech by end of week. 5 days for it to sit with water in it. She also told me to call the Protection Dept. to see if anything they can do. So in the meantime, I have a washer sitting here with water in it. She said to unplug it, let it sit for a minimum of 40 seconds and then try the drain spin again (which I did try twice last night). I will give it a try while I wait for the PA dept. to pick up as they are very busy, according to the recording.

Lady Kenmore super capacity - It was top of the line at the time, $600.00. Electronic sensor temperature settings. Everything from heavy soiled cotton settings to delicate settings. Powerful motor. Kenmore from Sears that was bought in 1992. It was reliable. It had the largest clothes capacity at that time. I have absolutely no complaints about this washer. I have had this appliance for 24 years. I look for top brand names with stellar operational ratings. I look for online reliability reports. I look at price and warranty. I look at customer service records. I will only buy super capacity washers. I am not concerned about energy efficient ratings. If the washer is reliable, I am willing to pay the price. I will always go with name brands such as Kenmore or Maytag. I have never had to repair my Lady Kenmore washer in 24 years. If the washer frequently required repairs, I would steer clear of the brand from now on. I have had no problems with paint chipping nor any problems with the appliance eating my clothing. My Lady Kenmore Ultra Fabric Care Heavy Duty 90 series has been fantastic. It has 8 temperature cycle and 5 cycle modifier settings. It was the most expensive washer at the time but well worth the money. This washer moves an oversized load of clothes just as efficiently as a small size load. The electronic temperature settings are an added benefit. If you are washing clothes in the winter and need for the water to be properly balanced, this will electronically monitor the temperature of the water and will create the proper amount of hot and cold water combination for the desired suitable water temperature. This product is wonderful!

I purchased my Kenmore washing machine in May of 2014 and received it in June. My washer had been giving me a UE code which is a unbalanced code. This would happen no matter what I was washing. To be fair I should have called Sears sooner to have them look at washer while it was covered on warranty, but I did not realize when the warranty was up until it was too late. I had repairman come out to fix my machine, he told me that the parts alone would be $504.00 to fix (brand new on sale cost was $550). Told me LG manufactured machine under Kenmore label and I should call them to see if they would cover price of parts. Also said this rarely happened to the machines.Called LG never heard of machine, called Sears said not true, LG manufactured it. Sears told me to register machine on LG site then maybe they would recognize machine. And since it was not registered on their site that was why they did not recognize it. Problem who knows when you purchase Kenmore product who really makes it. Looking online, LG has this problem with LOTS of their machines. So unfair you purchase a (expensive to me) new machine and it is a piece of garbage. 4 hours to get a load of wash done!!!

Series 700 top loading washer - Ive never been more disappointed in a purchase. These claim to be efficient water saving devices but you have to do 6 times the number of loads if you want your clothes to be cleaned. I purposely put very few articles into the wash because I want them to actually come out clean and over and over again they come out dirty, as if they were simply wet down and spun around. We did have an old style, center agitator Whirlpool that did use more water but CLEANED 6 times the amount of laundry in one load! That washer cost us $75 and lasted 14 years. This new Kenmore cost $700 and has been nothing but disappointment.

The repairmen that have been sent out on a lid locking problem have not been able to resolve this issue. This started in August, and the last two appointments have been cancelled the day of the appointment (when my wife called the 800 number to find out what time the repairman would be at our house). Currently the laundry room is stinking, the entire first floor of our home because the water is stagnant and will not drain. The 800 number has made an appointment for our washer to be repaired on December 8th. This is the longest we have ever had to wait the first floor of our home should really smell great by then.

Kenmore washers are reliable and last a very long time. The clothes always come out clean and fresh and dont seem to wear out as they are washed. Perhaps the best feature of the Kenmore washer is reliability. It is very rare for anything to break down and the clothes consistently come out nice and clean. The washer is a top-loading model which I prefer. I like the simple features and its easy to keep clean, as opposed to stainless steel which would be a nightmare to keep up. Kenmore washers are affordable and are a great value. Considering how long they last, and how little they need to be repaired... I highly recommend one.

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.

I used my Washer reliably for many years. It always got my clothes, sheets, and towels clean nicely. It held a good sized load, including king sized winter blankets. It cleaned our laundry quickly and efficiently. Minimal noise when running. Its aesthetically pleasing, very neat, clean white, fits nicely in its chosen space. The dials were easily readable even for young children. It was a very valued member of my home. It continued to wash our clothes reliably for twenty years, even through daily use of four to five loads per day.

The washer had a nice appearance but I wouldve preferred if I had more color options. But overall the appearance was nice and I thought the price was fair for the model purchased. This washer had many different cycle options for all of my washing needs. It washed all my items very well and I like the speed the water ran in the washer.

The Kenmore Dishwashers reviews were favorable and pricing was okay. It was available to me in my local store. It is built in and I really like the lock and easy opening door. No hard banging when opening. It works great, cleans well and has strong, great working jets. There is No soap residue, it washes to my expectations and is easy to use and load. Also, I agree with most reviews and the price was not too bad.

Works great, affordable price and lasts for yrs. Cant beat the performance
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 had used this washer for 10 or more years. Washing clothes was pretty good. However, my washer has broken down. Water coming out of the washer, so had to buy a new one. The washing machine lasted so many years for me. Reliability was good and I would recommend to my friends and family. As for energy efficiency, the noise level was okay and it wasnt that loud. I like it when the washing machine door can be opened in front and able to put lots of clothes in one to two spin. The appearance of the washing machine was pretty good. I like it when it is white instead of other color. When I brought the washing machine, the price was affordable. Right now, prices is not that expensive to afford, so the value is still good.

I loved Kenmore because it always worked and was reliable. I had it for a long time and never had to repair much. I only had a few issues which were temporary and probably from my own wear and tear. The machine was recommended by a family member. They knew that my old washing machine had broke and decided to tell me about a sale at Best Buy. I got it about 20% off and I really got my money’s worth from this machine. It worked for a long time, but it was cheaply made and it had a lot of other problems cosmetically. It could have had stronger material or make it out of better things for large families and the wear and tear they bring.

We bought a Kenmore 600 series early in 2018 after selling our home and leaving the wonderful 22 year old Maytag washing machine behind. What a mistake. This new Sears product is the epitome of young people not thinking through what they are trying to accomplish. To be more specific, these HE machines are designed to save water. But they do not clean clothes because the water level is too low. How is that an improvement? And what if you bump the power button by mistake... Out goes the water. How ridiculous. Often our clothes are left with detergent residue from not getting dissolved and we have to wash them again. Weve used more water. What I have found useful when washing clothes is to pause the machine and add a few gallons of water, let it spin a few minutes to get the soap to disperse with the added water, then pause the machine again and literally unplug the machine and allow the clothes to soak an hour or so dependent on the degree of stains. If I could bring back my old Maytag I would but that deal is done. Engineers, and I use that word lightly, have screwed the pooch.

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.

This washer is excessively noisy. It makes many different noises and is totally annoying! The washer does not fill up with enough water even when you select Deep Fill. You must put the detergent in before you load your clothes and this completely stained a new shirt. The fill rate is slow. If you need to stop the washer it does not cancel out properly. The cycle takes too long.

The Kenmore washer had very good reviews and a 90 percent approval rating. I ordered it online and received free shipping and free installation. This was also at a deep discount with me only paying $350 for it and in the whole time I have had I can see why it received such good reviews. I like that it has something of a touchscreen on it. There are about a dozen different wash cycles to choose from like whites, colors, heavy, delicate and normal. There are also an option to have it chime and a fabric softener button and a dispenser for bleach. However, the tub is not very secure in the washer or at least it seems so. You can reach in and grab on to the edge of the tub and move and shake it around. It is also very deep and it is hard to reach all the clothes since I am so short.

Even clothes that had stains or very dirty came out clean. No need for second wash. Didnt even have to use the option of extra rinse or heavy dirty. Never had to level it like my top load washer. Never had any issues with it and its energy efficient and keeps my electric bill from skyrocketing. Its quiet you cannot even tell its running. Its compact enough but big enough to fit a big blanket or comforter usually had to take them to the laundromat. It wipes clean easily as well. It was more than I wanted to pay but in the long run its cheaper because it cost my electric lower and my water to run lower. I would recommend it to people.

The performance of this machine is good. I never have any problems with it. I am satisfied with the performance and what it has done. I can always count on this Kenmore machine to get the job done. Whenever I put clothes in the machine, they always come out clean and gets all the dirt and grime out. The appearance does not mean much to me at all. I could really care less about how it looks from the exterior. I got a good deal when I first bought this machine. For the amount of money that I paid for, the Kenmore machine did not let me down and met my expectations.

I bought it used and had it for 2 years before it stopped drying my clothes. After about a year and a half it started taking more time to get the clothes dry. A month or so later it was not drying them hardly at all. Up until then it worked pretty good, especially for being 7 to 8 yrs old.

Ive never had anything so liberating in my life. The thing is awesome. I always go with Kenmore. Whenever my appliance breaks down I always buy a new Kenmore. Any clients that I have its always Kenmore. My Kenmore washing machine is so durable. Ive only had to call Kenmore out one time to come and repair something and it was minor and it wasnt their fault or the washing machines fault. It was my small child climbing on top of it and jumping up and down LOL. And I think if that hadnt happened I would never had to call them. My Kenmore washing machine is so glorious. Its almost like a centerpiece you want to put in the middle of the living room for everyone to look at LOL. The thing is durable as say my clothes many many times. The thing is gorgeous almost like a Roman statue in my washroom.It was a little pricey but thats what you get when you buy top of the line and my mother always says you get what you pay for. Im not going to buy a cheap washing machine that Im going to have to keep fixing and fixing and fixing. I want something thats going to last me about 10 years before I have to put a new part in it and Ive got that now. Kenmore rocks.

Is a great machine with lots of energy efficiency and great performance. Very happy with it. Great and trusted brand as well. Also it does not make much noise when running. It is a machine that you can rely for long term. Great performance and have the confidence that this machine will last for many years to come. Also it comes with guaranty in case it breaks. The look of the machine is outstanding. The door ion in the front which makes it easy to load with clothes for drying. It is a very modern look of the machine. The value is great if you consider all the features you get for that price and the performance and long term that you get by buying this machine.

I purchased a Kenmore washer at 6pm on 8/11/11, took it home and did not work. I called back to the store and I was told to get online and troubleshoot. I could not get a service tech as the purchase was new; not in the system yet. I called repair tech on 8/12 but could not get an appointment until the afternoon of 8/15. The store manager is not available until 1:00 on 8/12. At 2:47 no call was received from the manager. I called executive office and said they were sending a tech this evening. I purchased tires (4) from Sears; truck shook bad. I was told to take it to Dobbs and if they said the tires were bad that Sears would replace them.

Cleans well with all types of cycles and clothing. There is a regular, delicate, permanent press cycle. There are also different size loads such as small, med, large, and super large. Works well at all times. The cycles, water level, all the different settings are very dependable. They work accurately and effectively. It is an older model but has the basic dials and settings. It is white in color which is fine with me as I keep in the garage so no one really sees it. This is not an expensive model so that I feel it is a great value. It is basic in washers without a whole lot of fancy cycles and dials.

The washer worked great for a very long time. It cleaned our clothes perfectly. After at least 8 years of owning this washer the balance gears finally went out. So, we just recently replaced it. This washer lasted for more than eight years. It was a very reliable and durable washing machine. I would have purchased another just like it if they hadnt passed new HE regulations on washer sales. This washer was your standard Kenmore washer - without all the bells and whistles. It was a smaller bowl but could still easily fit a full sized load without fail. This washer was worth every penny spend to buy it. It lasted well beyond its perceived lifespan and always did a great job cleaning any load big or small.
