Kenmore 24" Electric Space Saver Laundry Center with Dryer

must have gotten a lemon :( May 29, 2011

my husband and i purchased this stackable unit because we were very limited on space (we have a small closet in our apartment). sears delivery people were very professonal and helpful. apparently the saleperson added a cord to our order that was not needed, and the delivery men were very up front in saying that it was not needed and to return it to save ourselves money. also, the saleman failed to inform us that we could not run the washer and dryer at the same time. this was a HUGE suprise and disappointment. there was nothing i could do because of the power supply, so i just accepted it. we used the unit right away and washed and dried the first load of laundry beautifully. i was stoked!

however, the next day, we threw in load #2. the washer filled up and then just stopped working. we tried everything and called the support center to no avail. i do have to say that sears handled the situation professionally, and offered us a new one. however, after this experience, we just returned the unit and are planning on purchasing compact front load machines. despite sears attempt to make the situation better, i have to give the product one star because it was such a disappointment.

This 110v laundry center wash/dry does its job GREAT!!! April 12, 2011

The first machine was exchanged because it was missing the lid latch, and the leveling legs kept slipping. The replacement came the next day with the lid latch; it stays level, and does not wobble at all. This machine was not available in any local stores, so I was taking a risk in ordering it sight unseen. But it is attractive, and the washer and dryer are have larger capacities than i thought they would. A major concern was that i only have one 110V outlet. The dryer certainly gets hot enough, and i don't mind not being able to wash and dry at the same time. I split a washer load into smaller loads for the dryer sometimes, but that doesn't bother me. It has solved my space and laundry issues beautifully, and i hope it will last for many, many years.

Efficient and Hard Working! March 20, 2011

I love this washer/dryer combo. This is the second one of this type that I've had in my condo and the first one lasted almost 10 years! There are several options for wash temperatures, including a gentle and a soak cycle. The heavy duty cycle only takes about 20 minutes. The dryer portion also has multiple options and is fast, quiet and efficient. It fits very nicely into the space I had, and because it has only one electrical connection, I didn't have to spend more money hiring someone to hook it up! Highly recommend if you are looking for a stackable unit!

Wobbles like crazy February 07, 2011

During the spin cycle the tub wobbles uncontrollably. Apparently it's a standard issue with these machines. You put any clothing that holds a lot of water like jeans or a towel it will wobble, thump,and bang really loudly. I'm wondering how much longer the bearings will hold up until they're fried. Do yourself a favor and look elsewhere for a stacked unit.
