    Good value, does the job without breaking the bank July 15, 2010

    This has been a very good washer for us.  Bought it because the old one died and I didn't want to spend a bunch of money on lots of bells and whistles.  This does a great job.  Not a big fan of the top access lint trap, as it seems to leak lint as you pull it out.  You have to wipe off the top of the dryer every couple of loads.

    Other than than, it does a really good job drying.

    Drum thumped on nearly every rotation; replaced with a Maytag January 02, 2010

    We purchased this model to replace a similar Kenmore that we'd had for about 20 years. The first thing we noticed is that, like another reviewer, there was a noticeable "thump" on nearly every turn of the drum. We called Sears and talked with a customer support technician who said it might be a roller that was out of round and that running it for a week or two might correct the problem. We ran it for three weeks and the problem never went away. We are now awaiting delivery of a slightly pricier Maytag unit to exchange for this one. However, other than the thumping sound, the dryer has done a good job on the drying side. We were able to see an improvement over our old dryer...clothes are fluffier, etc. However, it seems that with another user making the same comment about the thump, that there may be a design flaw in the drum suspension system.

    Stopped getting hot November 01, 2011
    By DadinNJ of Morristown, NJ

    After about a year the dryer stopped getting hot and drying clothes. Vents are clean and lint free. Whether timed or auto sensor, clothes won't dry. Also experience the lound thump others report.

    When you least expect it the Hometown Store has it. January 07, 2010
    By lacajungator of Franklin, LA

    The other day I thru some clothes in the dryer to find that it will not turn at all. Also it was already late to call anyone so online I went to Sear web site. Looking and comparing to replace the GAS DRYER we have. On my way to work I called some places and I would have to drive about an hour one way to pick it up. So I decided to call the Hometown Store in Franklin, Louisiana.  They so happened to have what I was looking for and a good price as I alway like sale prices. Hooked it up and dryes great. All the features work and quiter than the one I replaced it with.
