Kenmore Freezer Reviews

Great refrigerator and freezer! Very pleased with its operation, features and reliability. I love the double door access and separate compartment for the freezer. Very quiet in its operation.

I have an upright medium size Kenmore freezer. I have owned it for more than five years with no breakdowns. However, it’s a bit fragile inside around the frame and floor areas. Although it’s supposed to be frost free, ice builds up in frozen foods.

Kenmore Freezer's cheap, not just in price, but it is also shoddy. It breaks easily, lock never even worked and doesn't stay closed; we put a 5 gallon pail of paint on it to hold it closed.

My freezer (upright) is 9 years old, continues to operate perfectly and has never required a repair. It is frost free, upright with door lock and has been an excellent investment.

It's a great freezer for a family of 4. It fits in anywhere with just right the height. The 3 shelves are wide and deep enough for pizzas and even a large turkey to fit on and the drawer at the bottom is perfect for vegetables or extra bread. I like the frost free feature too. Overall, it also has great value for the price.

We bought the freezer thirty years ago and are still using it. We have moved it twice and never had any trouble, or have to have it repaired. We are still very happy with it.

4 years ago I bought two regular Kenmore Freezers, not of the frost-free genre, per the advisement of the manager of a Sears outlet, near where I live. He said that the non-frost free freezers are less prone to fail, and they get fewer complaints on them, than their frost-free ones. Nevertheless, I've had nothing but trouble with ice buildup, in both of these uprights, since I purchased them. Over the course of this past winter, I have had to regularly empty, defrost, and reorganize one of them, at least once a month. Then the ice builds up in it badly within one week of turning them back on. I only use a medium temperature setting. A Kenmore Frost-Free upright freezer, which I only purchased two years ago, has now completely died on me.

I have had this Kenmore freezer for 15 years and is still running like the first day I got it. Never have had to get it repaired. I would highly recommend it.

I had a self-defrosting Kenmore freezer that lasted +/- 10 years. The electronics went kaput and would cost more than buying a new freezer. We bought a non-frost-free freezer and love it. It's larger but we have only had to defrost it once in 3 years.

The freezer went bad in 3 years. I bought an extended warranty but they said the freezer was not covered in the warranty. What good was the warranty anyways?

After only 2 years the timer needed to be replaced, $250, turned a good buy into a loser. Thought I would get a lot more use before a major repair. They don't build them like they used to. I will check consumer reports before my next appliance purchase.

My Kenmore is over 20 yrs old. But the side by side is very small. It is hard to put a lot of frozen foods in. But I buy KENMORE whenever I can. Thank you so very much.

I have been very pleased with my seven point five cubic feet freezer. Temperature stays stable. I've had my freezer now five years and it still running.

Purchased this freezer in 1985, not Energy Star rated but works great. It is the basic unit, no automatic defrost, no bells or whistles, it just keeps on going year after year.

It's been reliable for almost 9 years, but it's narrow and the door when open impedes access. The unit as a whole is noisy when running. Could we do better?

This refrig./freezer leaves a lot to be desired. I have had issues with it, even when it was new. It kept freezing inside a tube in the back & a heat stick needed to be added. Water kept leaking onto the bottom of the freezer. Then, after it was "fixed", it did it again. Sears was nearly impossible to reach & had very little interest if fixing this problem on my nearly new appliance. I had to call Indonesia or some foreign place... I would never buy it again, nor would I recommend Sears Kenmore for a refrig/freezer.

Our Kenmore freezer died a few days prior to Christmas 2017. Having a hard time getting replacement parts from repair sites. Will continue to try as it isn't that old.

I bought this upright freezer in about 1980. This Kenmore freezer was well worth the about $400 I paid for it. I have never needed service and I am in another home with it in my basement as extra storage.

My experience with this product was great. It was easy to clean, also my bill wasn't high either. My food was kept frozen without freezer burn as long as you follow manufacturer instruction.

I was ok at first then it started making sounds. And it didn't have enough slots for small pack and med one. Plus I had to defrost it which was a pain. Other than that it did the job.

I purchased an upright freezer just for my baking products. It is small and perfect and holds what I need. It doesn't take too much room in my kitchen.

It doesn’t have enough shelf space. The shelves are not very strong and they sag in the middle. The door shelves are too narrow and cannot hold very much. I have owned Kenmore appliances for a lot of years and I am very disappointed in the freezer I bought.

This freezer is long lasting, die hard freezer in any climate you may live in. Stays cold and so as a buyer, you know your goods, your food and beverages will last.

I bought my Kenmore more than 25 years ago, and it has never quit on me. I can stock up on any frozen products, including meats and seasonal fruits and veggies. It is great.

Cross my fingers! Have owned this freezer over 10 years and have never had a problem. The way it has performed, hope I never have to buy another. Would recommend to anyone in a minute.

I bought my Kenmore freezer about 15 years ago. I've never had one problem. When the price is right I will buy a newer, more energy efficient model. This was a great buy.

The freezer seems to be running most of the time. I like the size and it is an upright, a lot easier to see the contents. I had a chest freezer before but you could not see what was on the bottom.

Most of the seal on the freezer and fridge door is loose. It's only 5 years old. Sometimes the freezer is packed with ice water, leaks out in the back but only in the summertime.

We purchased the Kenmore basic stainless steel fridge with double doors, freezer on bottom, no water or ice maker in door as we don’t like our water out here. Our problem is that the bottom freezer is too small, everything else is all good!!!

Had refrigerator so long, the finish is worn off in spots and I have to Gorilla tape the freezing compartment shut. It has been a good refrigerator other than that.

My Kenmore is just what I needed for my growing family. And now as empty nesters, it is just what the 2 of us need. And it will be replaced, you got it, by a Kenmore.

My family has been a Kenmore family since I was a young person. I have had this freezer for 7 yrs and I have never had a problem. I would recommend Kenmore.

The freezer needs to be larger in size. The side door should be larger as well. Rearrange the vegetable drawers because you can never really open the one next to the door completely.

I just replaced my Kenmore freezer. The one that I had finally gave out after 25 yrs. I only had to have my old freezer repaired once in that time. I got my new one and only hope that it will last half as long.

It is an ok freezer. Once it didn't keep cold. That problem has disappeared. It is a small freezer (10.8 cubic feet.). It has no door lock. You cannot shut off the light.

As long as a freezer has room for larger items and good spacing there should never be a problem. Most freezers have adjustable shelving and that is a plus.

We bought our freezer as a replacement for a Kenmore upright that we had for over 20 years. The new one is a little chest but actually holds a lot more. However as I am only 5'2", sometimes I have to get a stool to reach the bottom.

When I looked at the Kenmore Freezer in the store I already knew what I was getting and I am 100% happy with my purchase. I like that it has many uses and keeps my food nice and cold. I also like how it has different items that I can use and label.

We like the size of the freezer as we needed a smaller one and we could not afford too much. It's less expensive than many we looked at, but we are very unhappy with how the ice accumulates around the lid and upper part of freezer. It did this from the beginning. It is not something we caused. We purchased this freezer in Kmart as it was the exact size we wanted. We would have preferred a different brand, but this is what they had. It is a good brand, but we prefer the brand we had before this.

I love that the unit is spacious, designed perfectly, has many settings for coldness, has plenty of room drawers and shelves are placed in the design very well. It fits well and suits each and every need I have. I am very comfortable with it and I trust that it will work right. I have really enjoyed using this brand. I am loyal to them and believe in them for further purchases.
