This unit is a replacement for a 14 year old Kenmore DIR Water Softener.
I am very pleased. I installed it myself and wanted to make a couple plumbing changes. Even with that the installation went quickly. There have been several improvements since the last model such as improved water flow and a much more compact (lighter) power supply. This softener also has the salt level monitor that was only available on the top of the line model 14 years ago.
The manufacturer who makes the Kenmore line has been the same supplier for many, many years and is the top of the line in this price range. Very few moving parts and any part that contacts hard water or salt is made of a non-corrosive material. Very first class indeed.
My water is about 32 grains hard with less than 2 PPM of iron.
Hope this review helps a customer make a decision.
By the way, we have the maintenance plan coverage. We have had free service on several items over the years and when the old unit finally died, it was replaced with this new one. Don't underestimate the value of the maintenance plan.

We bought this water softener to replace an older Kenmore model. This one has worked a lot better than the older one, until now. After about 2 1/2 years, I walked into my garage to find the floor flooded. The brine tank was full and overflowing. The plastic top of the resin tank, which contains the gears and valves, was cracked and leaking into the brine tank. It was working good up until this point but, for the price, it should last longer than 2-3 years with only a one year warranty. I'm not sure if the other components are damaged from the exposure to the water. When I was removing the bypass valve to take the tank out and empty it, the connector that the valve fits into also cracked when I was removing the retaining clips. Expensive parts with cheap quality.

I like the fact that it is digital instead of the old pin version. Has different functions depending on how often you want/need to regenerate. It is a very nice and quiet unit.
This was the first water softener we have ever purchased. It works perfectly.
My old Kenmore 200 Series water softener went out after 10 years and I purchased the new 350 Series as I had really good luck and experience. I can not say anything wrong with the 350 series softener. I removed the old one and installed the new one which saved me $100+ for installation. I would recommend this product to anyone looking for a great water softener at a good price.
