Kenmore Refrigerators

Anybody looking to buy an LG or Kenmore refrigerator please look online at the class action lawsuits against LG for the refrigerator compressor failures. We paid $4000 for an LG refrigerator in 2019 and it only lasted 3 years. That's over $1000 a year for refrigerator. We have an old Kelvinator in the garage from the 1970s that is still working over 50 years old. New refrigerators are built to fail. Not to last. It might be okay if you could actually repair the refrigerator in a way that it would last but evidently that's impossible.

I bought a Kenmore side by side refrigerator in January through Sears. The refrigerator hasn’t been properly working since I purchased it. Back in January we are now going into November and I don’t have a working refrigerator. I just want my money back and purchase Whirlpool through Costco.

Our Kenmore Model is 79574024412, Kenmore Elite Bottom Freezer Refrigerator purchased from Sears in 2017. I highly recommend you do NOT purchase this appliance. First of all it has expensive air and water filters that need to be replaced every year. This is large expense and problematic to do. Secondly, the ice maker has continually caused issues for us. It leaks and this causes it to freeze up the entire ice maker. We are constantly having to chip out frozen ice to make accessory work.

If I could give this a -100000 star I would. First and foremost save yourself and get nothing from here. Second do not get a Kenmore fridge 'cause you will have to deal with this. My fridge went out. $700 worth of food is tossed. They schedule me for an appt the next day. A guy comes saying he’s there to repair the stove. I laughed and said, "You're joking right." He said, "No. I don’t know anything about fridges." I call. I get transferred 5x. Now I get transferred to the supervisor after a 35! minute hold waiting for the supervisor (mind you every 2 minutes she comes on to tell me that we’re still waiting for a supervisor). Now I speak to the supervisor and she then transfers me to Kenmore warranty … Guess what Kenmore warranty is… the same number I called from the beginning and it took me nowhere back to pressing numbers for what department I wanted.

I purchased a Kenmore Elite French door refrigerator in 2016 (795.74043.412). I didn't do much research before the purchase. It recently stopped cooling. The repairman explained a design flaw common with this brand. The lines are narrow and tend to crimp, causing oil to back up into the compressor. It's repairable at a cost of over 1,500.00. It would likely happen again. He said most of the repair calls he gets are for Kenmore/LG and Samsung. I decided not to repair. For that cost I intend to purchase a Whirlpool.

My ice maker leaked and froze my lower freezer doors. We have done all the recommended repairs. This refrigerator is crap. It has never worked and now we need to replace it. Garbage. Garbage. Garbage.

Used Kenmore products for better than 40 yrs but no more, less than 90 days, repaired twice purchased in Jan 2022, repaired 02/2022 and 03/2022 with no parts available. Now replacing with another brand

Kenmore refrigerator come defective from the factory. I purchased the refrigerator five years ago and broke down 7 times. The customer support is the worst I have experienced. They laughed at my predicament and Extorted more money for me.

Bought this fridge and matching stove 3yrs ago. I purchased this brand, as did much research on reviews of Kenmore. With that and feeling Sears had a quality product, I purchased them. Three years later, my fridge went totally out. I had no reason to think a Kenmore would crash in 3 years. Threw out hundreds of dollars in food. And this is where things go horribly wrong.

We purchased a Kenmore Elite refrigerator and it stopped cooling and we called Sears/Kenmore and they sent multiple people on 4 different occasions to check it out and all said that it was the compressor and we still have warranty on it. To add insult to injury one of their affiliates by name Intelfix paid $100 deductible to them and still they have not fixed my appliance nor replace and whenever we call they will give us a run around. I can't believe we have all of our appliances from the scam of a company called Sears/Kenmore.
