I bought this water heater nearly 2 years ago, and it has been a great performer. It replaced a 20-year old Vaughn of the same size. The WH is on a separate meter, so I know exactly how much power it uses, and the new one uses about 20% less power than the old one! The electricity savings, about $6 a month, will actually pay for this water heater in about 8 years!
My ONLY complaint is that Sears does not deliver water heaters. I can't quite figure out why... the truck is coming to my town anyway; presumably there is space on it; the water heaters come from the same warehouse as the other appliances; why not deliver it and make 60 bucks???
