    As mentioned in previous reviews, this washer leaves soapy residue on everything. I use a little bit of "he" laundry detergent and there is always residue on my dark clothes. There is no center post in this washing machine to stir things up. My sheets always end up knotting up in a ball and the machine won't spin because of the unevenly distributed weight of wet sheets. I don't like doing laundry but it is particularly frustrating to have to wash things over and over to get the residue out. How energy efficient is it if you have to wash things 3 times? It is also frustrating to try to complete my laundry for the day when I have to keep untangling things that have balled up. I would recommend a side loading machine as they are much better at moving things around.

    Purchased a Kenmore Washer Model 796.41382410 in Oct. 2014. A small plastic magnetic catch on the door broke and Sears will not sell that part alone. They want me to buy a new door for $200.00 plus shipping. None of the small plastic parts appear to be available alone. All must be purchased as part of a larger (and very expensive) assembly. Last Kenmore for me.

    I am so unhappy with this washing machine. It simply does not rinse the soap residue from dark fabrics. The last batch of dark colors, navy, black, jeans, etc. came out with white soap marks all over. I rewashed with no soap and added a rinse cycle. Still bad! I washed a king size teal colored blanket. After three rinses, I hauled the wet thing to the Sears store and showed them all the soap residue. They told me I used too much soap! Now I use a fraction of the soap and still get the residue. Don't buy this...

    I signed up for ConsumerAffairs to be able to ventilate my frustration about this washing machine. There is nothing wrong with the mechanics of this machine. It turns the front loading drum, like it should, adds water, removes water, etc. But the program-cycles it offers make the whole washing affair completely idiotic. All the cycles are way too short for good cleaning. (None takes longer than 1/2 hour.) Also, there is no cycle without a final spin option. I come from Europe where 'eco' machines turn slow and long, in order to enable good soaking and cleaning. I have to 'add' programs cycles in order to get anything clean with this machine. Meanwhile I cannot put off the spin session, so I end up using a lot of energy to get my wash done with this machine (while ruining my clothes with the spinning). My husband ordered this machine after thoroughly reading consumers reports. Makes no sense to me.

    It is reliable and really cleans the clothes and dries them quickly. I don't have to keep the clothes in the dryer very long because the spin cycle of the washer is so thorough. When I put detergent in the washer, it does not cause over sudsing so my clothes don't feel sticky as if soap was still in them. There are many options for washing and drying and even just fluffing them or keeping them from getting wrinkles. As a result, I don't have to use as much fabric softener as I did with past appliances.

    We purchased a new Kenmore Elite Washer four years ago and appreciated its high capacity and ease of function until last week when it exploded, minus the flames. All four of the suspension rods holding the inside tub (where your clothes go) in place snapped, causing the tub to crash to the floor. The top of the machine completely broke apart from the base, the sides of the machine pushed laterally, and there were metal clips and sharp shards of plastic that scattered like shrapnel in our laundry room.

    Luckily, I was not in there at the time but did hear it happen. Thought something had fallen through our roof. Sears, from whom we purchased the product would not replace it as it had never required service (Huh?). Just purchased another Elite after learning it is being produced by a different company. First run of it today and there is condensation on the outside where you control the laundry cycles. Not pleased.

The washer could be easier to clean, however-- the sealing gasket is always dirty and holds little bits of stagnant water unless I am diligent about wiping it clean after every cycle, which is more maintenance that I think a washing machine should really require.
