This is another typical sears/kenmore piece of ****. All you get is error code and dirty laundry. All Sears wants is your money to repair the item. They are no help. I would not recommend this or any sears product to anyone.
Lasted one year before it had problems and right as the warranty expired. Sears will not stand behind fixing the problems with this machine and even with the recall with the older model A YEAR OLD MODEL if you want to call it older, people on the internet are still having the same issues with the newer model. Buy the extended warranty with this one and be prepared to use it all the time. Who needs the headache when you spend so much on a washer.
Bought this machine a month ago 8/17/10. This is for a family of 5.. Didn't clean clothes good enough, ripped, tore, and mangled my babies clothes and my clothing!!!! Would NOT recomended this washer to my worst enemy! Save yourself the grief, Don't buy. Taking it back and getting a good ole standard washer.
Buyer BEWARE
After 5 repair calls and hundreds of dollars later, this 4 year old machine cannot do a single set of king sheets with out going out of balance. I bought the machine based on its capacity and it doesn't live up to its claim.
We've had this washer & dryer since August, 2008, and are satisfied. I like how easy it is to use, and reliable. The washer does a much better job on clothes if the load is fairly modest, and I do always add an extra rinse.
This machine is off balance 99% of the time. The associate told me there was no difference between this top loading model and a front loading model - they were wrong.
We bought our washer in 2007, and we have already had to get it worked on two different times, and it just broke again this morning.
If I could give less than a 1 star rating I would. The machine won't stay balanced no matter what you put in it. You can't just spin dry and the clothes don't even get very clean. Don't buy it!
It does not clean my clothes well, get stains out good, or leave the clothes smelling fresh. It also leaves bleach spots on our clothes run after we bleached a previous load. It gets out of balance even after they came to replace a defective control panel that must have been a defect with all the washers. I was so excited to get an efficient washer with a large capacity only to end up very disappointed with the performance.
OK, I read the reviews and PANICKED!!! I thought I had just invested in an expensive, noisy, leaky, clothes ruining bohemoth!
What I actually purchased is... a HUGE, EASY TO USE, QUIET, machine that gets clothes AMAZINGLY CLEAN, with none of the twisting or wrinkling I read about.
Apparently, they changed some things from the earlier machines, and the new ones don't have the same problems or issues.
I have 4 kids who are very into playing outdoor sports, a dog that sheds like it's her job, and a husband who gets very dirty doing yard work. This machine has handled everything LIKE A PRO!!! ...
read full review »Stay away from this washer. The cylce is constantly dirupted by an F1 code and you have to constantly restart the washer. Before you buy, Google "Kenmore Oasis Washer". I wish we had. Don't rely on SEARS to be any help either once you purchase it and six months - one year down the road it breaks down. Don't get me wrong, they'll help if you're willing to pony up $130 for a site visit and then the cost of repair. Consider a different washer.
