We have well water and were debating whether to purchase a water softener for our home. I was always concerned about the water because we had problems in the past. We had to move the well head above ground due to contamination. The Health Department always inspects the well prior to building a house. The water sample was taken and the well did not pass. So we had to have repairs done to it with...

My husband wanted to invest a fancy grill. Now, to me a fancy grill is one that looks like a wok and has three little legs with a cover on it. An unfancy grill is a fire. Of course, his definition was different. It involved gas tanks and burners and steel and looked incredibly like an oven with wheels to me. Which we already have an oven with all that sans wheels, of course....

The Quantum Series Kenmore grill has an interesting style with added features like battery operated lights on the inside and a removable tray for dripping grease. It has plenty of rack space, including an upper rack for warming. It is designed to be sturdy while also very light, making it easy fpr small people to wheel it around. For under $200 dollars, the following can be expected... This...

I purchased this washing machine quite a number of years ago. It just keeps running and running without any problems. I keep expecting to have to replace this but it just keeps on running strong. This one certainly owes me nothing. The clothes just keep on coming out nice and clean. I should also mention that it has many settings for various types of clothes. ...

I have owned my Kenmore Cold Spot Side by Side Refrigerator for 4 1/2 years. I have been very pleased with it. My family loves the water and ice on the front and I think my kids drink more water since getting this fridge. I have plenty of room in the refrigerator although it did take some arranging to get things just where I wanted them. It has three drawers that I use for meat and cheese, vegg...

I purchased this Sears Kenmore power miser 6 gas hot water heater in May of 2005. In these two plus years that I have owned it I have had no problems with it at all. I had a very old hot water heater before this one and the flame went out on it so I decided it was time to buy a new one. Because I use natural gas to heat my water I did not want to take a chance on any gas related problems. ...

When we moved into our new home we wanted new appliances so being a "Sears Kid" we went to the local sears and got a great deal on a houseful of appliances.  We ended up paying 349.00 for this range and I believe it usually went for 599.00.  The oven cooks great and evenly, I love the light feature for the oven, instead of losing heat when checking on things cooking in the o...

We bought this Kenmore side load washing machine 5 years ago.  I really liked the machine until just recently when it started breaking down. We bought the side load machine to save on water and also energy cost.  The side load machine uses approximately  16 to 24 gallons vs. up to 40 gallons of water used by top-loading machines.  It spins the clothes much dryer than a top-l...

I own a Kenmore 80 series washer. This is a super capacity plus washer. This washer has a three speed motor with a four speed combination. It has a hand wash/casual speed where it washes at an extra slow speed and rinses on a slow speed. This washer has a delicate cycle which washes at a slow speed and rinses at a slow speed. It has a normal cycle where it washes at a slow speed and rinses at a...

      I am really impressed with this Kenmore 90 series washing machine. Its fast and has the power. My clothes are always clean. I love the cycle controls. It is energy efficient. I have this washer in white. I had complained about my other wshing machine and a family member gave me this one. Wow! It was a surprise. I could really see the difference in what I had owned...

The Kenmore refrigerator in the house where I grew up lasted 20 years. That's why when I was buying a refrigerator for my own first home, I headed to Sears to pick up a Kenmore. Things have changed. The refrigerator we bought was a side-by-side model in white with a freezer on the left and a fridge on the right. The warranty lasted a year. We hoped we'd have this fridge much, much longe...

This washing machine is not only a great machine for getting your clothes clean, it's fun to watch too.  It holds a lot of laundry (4.5 cu ft) and its very easy to use.  This is high efficiency washer and you can only use high efficiency laundry detergent.  This does limit your detergent choices somewhat as not all washers are high efficiency yet.The clear glass top makes it ...

I have wanted to purchase a sewing machine my entire life.  I always saw it as a "luxury" item and not a necessity.  I was so excited last year when I finally, after waiting 30 years, bought my own machine.  The only problem.  I hadn't used a machine in 15 years.I purchased the Kenmore computerized sewing machine because I had read piositive reviews.  I wa...

I use my Quick Touch Kenmore Microwave several times a day. I use my microwave to defrost something for dinner, cook quick mac and cheese for my kids, heat water for a cup of tea, and numerous other things. This specific model by Kenmore goes above my gas range and therefore does not take up my precious counter space. It is extremely easy to use and large enough for me to thaw chicken...

The Kenmore elite fridge is one of the best fridges out on the market right now. It has a great blue LED screen with touch sensative buttons. It has 2 choices of ice, (Crushed,and Cubed). The freezer is a cool french door pullout that features many compartments. The fridge is complimented with stainless steel on the front. There are buttons on the inside of the fridge that can change the t...

Kenmore's over the range microwaves are junk.  This is our second microwave in 6 years.  The first one was still under warranty when the door went bad, so we received this one under the warranty.  Well, it lasted longer than the the first one, but it is still not that great.  About a year ago the microwave started flinkering on and off while I was trying to cook somethin...

This sewing machine is extremely easy to use.  It sews on denim and quilts with no hesitation.  The owner's manual is clear, concise and written in English, Spanish and French.  Every function has a diagram that helps to explain each feature.  The presser feet just snap into place and selecting the stitches is done by turning a dial.  The se...

I purchased this air filter from Sears because my Honeywell air filter finally bit the dust.  I purchased the air filter online at Sears.com because I could order online and pick it up 15 minutes later at a local Sears store.  The unit is designed to clean air in a 16 x 20 room and does a great job.  It also has a built in ionizer that cleans and freshens the air as it leaves the...

My old microwave died on me a few months back.  I don't know if you guys have ever tried to live without a microwave, but it's hard!  I didn't think I used mine that much, but wow!  I guess I do!  I went out and purchased a Kenmore because I'm familiar with the name and this one seemed a reasonable price.  So far I've been pleased with my purchase.Th...

Washer and Dryer model #417 were bought in July of 2005, and I don't think I've ever spent money better.  Included in the price was delivery and set-up, which happened exactly as scheduled and without a bit of frustration.  Durable, maintenance-free and perfect performers, these two appliances have consistently delivered clean, dry washables.  The savings in water, deterg...
