DisgustedinAlabama says "Air Conditioner cooling lasted just over one year" about Kenmore 18,000 BTU Large Capacity Room Air Conditioner

DisgustedinAlabama — Sat, 26 Sep 2009 22:57:31 GMT

I bought this air conditioner last year and just over 1 year the air conditioner has lost it's cooling power. It was not worth the money I paid for it. When I put down that much money on an appliance, I expect it to last longer. I will be not be buying kenmore again nor shopping Sears. They have started shortening the life span of products. Air conditioners used to last alot longer than they do nowadays. I refuse to fall into a cycle of Sears repair cash sucking too.

Anonymous says "Quiet and strong" about Kenmore 18,000 BTU Large Capacity Room Air Conditioner

sears-feed — Mon, 27 Jul 2009 14:30:58 GMT

Only ran it 2 days this year but it seems to do a good job cooling my downstairs (about 1000 sq ft) and is much quieter than the very old AC it replaced. Has four temperature settings from Warmest to Coolest which the manual says are 64 to 82 degrees in 6 degree steps - no digital display of temp setting, however. Lighter in weight than my old AC but still pretty heavy - over 100 lb - so I recommend 2 people for the installation....

This unit never cooled well beyond about 15 feet. Stopped cooling all together half way through the third summer. An A/C should last longer than two and a half seasons. With all the work that goes into installing an A/C into a wall, I would never buy another Kenmore....

I recently purchased the 18,000 BTU A/C, Model 75180. As far as cooling off the house, it works great. The only problem is that when the power is on, the fan runs continously, and every time the compressor turns on and off, it makes a loud 'thud' noise. If you can handle listening to the constant noise of the fan for hours on end, you may like this model....

Cools wonderfully but had one problem free season. The compressor was replaced last year still under the coolant, 5 yr. warranty, but is once again making the dragging sound. My second season was broken valves in the condenser which caused my unit to freeze and leak like a waterfall. Now, we are talking "compensation" toward a new unit. It's installed in my wall...oy. I wouldn't recommend this unit at all unless you like to buy problems....

One year after I bought the air conditioner (and only used it for 3-4 months) it broke - 1 month after warranty. The capcitor failed - total replacement and repair labor (by Sears) cost over $380. I would not recommend this brand....

We bought 2 units exactly alike. The month after the warrenty ran out the first control panel went out. 2 weeks later the 2nd unit's control panel went out. We called out Sears repair they charged me 180 + $$ to tell me what I already knew and to inform me that the parts were back ordered for months....
