    Kenmore 50 gal.Electric Hot Water Heater(32666)works perfectly. February 15, 2011

    The Kenmore 50 gal. Medium Height Electric Hot Water Heater (32666) works perfectly as advertised. Installation was easy, the directions were clear, and it has worked well from day one. The hardest part of the whole process was removing the old water heater and getting it to the curb.

    Very poor performance May 25, 2007

    This water heater typically produces lukewarm water - even with the thermostats set high. The only time we get hot water from it is within an hour after it's been drained of the lukewarm water (such as after a long shower) and has had time (45 minutes or so) to reheat the tank. It seems the only time the heating elements are "on" is after the heater has been drained of the "lukewarm" water it usually produces. When I've turned up the thermostats we end up with lukewarm water most of the time and, occasionally, searing hot water. I'm loath to call a technician to look at this as it's $69 minimum charge for what is probably a design issue.

    Kenmore 50 Gallon Electric Water Heater is worth every penny June 30, 2011
    By CTDavester of Fairfield, CT
    Pros:
    Easy Installation,Very reliable,Very accurate thermostat/temperature,Heats water very fast!
    Cons:
    Doesn't come with installation kit

    I purchased it couple months ago but I decided not to purchase the installation since the cost was close to the cost of the water heater itself. After couple months I decided to try to install it myself and it was almost a piece of cake. Only issue was the removal of the old tank. It took about 1-2hours and the whole instalation was done and in less than an hour I took a first shower. Water was already hot for a long hot shower. The power misser 6 50 gallon is great, heats the water really fast there is no need to switch it to 5500 Watts just a waste of electricity, the 3800W is more than enough. I had 3 people shower one after another with the washing machine running and noone ran out of hot water. THe thermostat is very accurate, you can have it luke warm to scalding hot and I never had the valve blow up. I have it set to approx 130 degrees and the water at the tap when I measured was actually 129 degrees. I am very happy with this purchase and would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a good quality, solid and reliable electric water heater and don't want to spend a fortune for the high end water heaters that costs more than twice as much but they all perform the same function. Can you tell the difference in your shower that your waterr is coming from a water heater that costs 300 bucks or 600 bucks, I sure can't but so far after 3 weeks I feel like I got a best wanter heater out there. Lets just hope it stays this way. I have a lot of Kenmore appliances and I never really had any negative experiences that is why I chose the water heater as well. Hope this review is helpful because I am just an ordinary guy that wants quality stuff that lasts but don't want to spend unnecessary fortune on it. Kenmore wanter heaters is a perfect choice if you are looking for solid reliable water heater that (So far!!!) never runs out of hot water even after 1 hour shower.

    Power Miser 6, 50 Gal. Trips breaker daily January 06, 2011
    By LionShooter of Lawrenceville, GA

    3 yrs old, has worked well until this past month. Now it trips the internal breaker every night, has to be reset and wait 45 min. for a shower. Water temp is 120*. Very aggravating. Looking for a solution without having to call a technician.

    Kenmore Power Miser 5 November 14, 2010
    By edbladens of Warsaw, KY

    This heater was purchased a year before i bought the house. I know cause i helped put it in. I have owned the house for 14 years. I have replaced only 2 elements since i have been there. and leaks? None here. Not only that but no rust anywhere on the unit. I would recomend this water heater to anyone. It may not be the same one but it is close. But thinking of replaceing it because of age just in case. Garranttee it will be this one.
