Sears
Reviews and Complaints

It looks like the people at Sears are even more stupid for not installing the stove properly like they were supposed to. It wasn't the husbands job to inspect anything. When you purchase something, you should be able to trust the company you purchased it from.

It look like your husband is a very stupid person for not inspecting the stove while the delivery people was there.

We purchased replacement windows from sears with a "lifetime"warranty. The windows cost $5700. At the time of the sale we were told that if a window failed, or got broken, they would ship a new window at NO COST. I would be required to pay for instillation unless it was a removable section. The seal failed in a removable section causing the inside of the double pane to cloud over. I called Sears--I was told it'd be $100 to come out and check the window and that I would have to pick up the replacement window AT THE FACTORY, whatever state that may be in--or country. Needless to say, our new siding wasn't from Sears, nor the front door and attic insulation. Sears will not honor warranties--period! Useless to talk to them

SEARS KENMORE ELITE REFRIGERATOR (MADE BY LG) COMPRESSOR DIED ON 7/14/2021. SEARS EXTENDED WARRANTY PERSONNEL SAID ITS PROBABLY THE COMPRESSOR. THEY OFFERED TO SET UP AN EMERGENCY REPAIR VISIT FOR 7/28/2021. THIS VISIT WILL BE ONLY TO DETERMINE IF THE COMPRESSOR IS BAD. THEY, THEY WOULD ORDER THE PARTS AND WHEN THE PARTS ARRIVE AT MY HOME IN ABOUT 1 WEEK OR LONGER, I WAS TO CALL FOR ANOTHER REPAIR APPOINTMENT. THE CURRENT WAIT FOR AN APPLOINTMENT WAS ABOUT 2 TO 3 WEEKS. HERE IS MY COMPLAINT. THIS IS A REFRIGERATOR AND THE FOOD GOES BAD IN A DAY IF THE REFRIGERATOR DOES NOT WORK. TO WAIT OVER A MONTH TO GET THE REFRIGERATOR FIXED WAS OUTRAGEOUS. I CALLED A LOCAL REFRIGERATOR REPAIR SHOP AND THE REFRIGERATOR COMPRESSOR WAS REPLACED IN 3 DAYS AT A COST OF $600. SEARS OWES ME $600 FOR THE REPAIR BECAUSE THEY DID NOT OFFER TO REPAIR THE REFRIGERATOR IN A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME.

Sears outlet sold me a washer that was rusted out! I bought my maytag washer in may 2020 and the damn thing went out (stopped working) in july. a repair tech has been out. i've been talking to customer service and still no resolve. this is horrible. i'm ready to drop the washer off in front of the place. i've been promised a callback and all they do is transfer me around to different departments. the repair tech says he ordered 3 parts. 2 I received and the other on back order. I asked how much longer will it be before I receive it and the csr team says they don't know. go figure! I hate that I purchased from sears

JoAnn D Samuels has not received refrigerator repair and the name Patti Larimore should be Howie Samuels.

Sears has not lived up to their refrigerator service agreement with my 89 year old mother, JoAnn D Samuels. My mother signed a $1, 999 2 year service agreement 8/1/2020 and can not get repair of her refrigerator for over two weeks now. Do I have to file a suit against Sears for no contract violation?

My Oven is a GE Model JKP20B0F2BB, Single Self Cleaning Wall Oven. In June, 2020 a Sears technician ordered part, GE WB08T10002 Oven Light Housing Assembly the second week of June 2020. I have since been informed that the part is not available by any of Sears suppliers. I have called and waited in excess of 1.5 hours or more to speak with a person only to be given another telephone number to call regarding my oven. I last spoke with a person last Monday (July 13, 2020). The person I spoke with advised that because of all the steps taken, I may qualify for a replacement of my oven (Under warranty). The person said that I would receive a call within 3-5 business days from her manager regarding what action(s) is being taken to resolve my oven problem. It has now been more than 8 business days and no one has called me about my oven. Also, I called this morning (July 20, 2020) at 7:00 am MST and was on the phone again for more than 1.5 hours and no one answered. My oven problems was first report in June 2020 and to no avail, my oven problem still exist. I respectfully ask that Sears resolve my situation ASAP. My contact information is Clarence A.

My mother-in-law is going through an absolute nightmare with Sears right now. She bought a new refrigerator from them about a year or so ago, and paid for an extended warranty on it. It stopped working sometime around the end of June. She called, the first repair appointment was a no-show, so she called again and finally got a repairman out. He looked at the fridge, said there was nothing wrong with it and if there was he couldn't find it, and left. Not sure if he was insane or what, but the fridge and freezer were WARM inside. All her food had to be tossed. She starts calling them again. Takes FOUR days for her to finally reach someone; according to her she'd be put on hold for hours at a time until she gave up. This time they tell her it'll be ten more days before someone can come out. Ten days. At that point, she'll have gone two and a half weeks with no fridge. This is an elderly lady who doesn't drive and can't go to the store every day for ice and perishables. She had a cooler on the kitchen counter and my husband had to go to the store every single morning to buy a bag of ice for her, and something to eat. It was like a tailgate party, but no fun at all. She finally breaks down and buys a little mini fridge so that we aren't having to constantly bring her ice and food. The ten days go by, and...you guessed it, no call, no show again. My husband calls them yet again. This time they assure us that she's 'priority' and they'll have someone out the next day for sure. Guess what? Yep, no show yet again! It's now three weeks and three no-shows for repair calls. I keep trying to convince her just to consider it a lesson learned and call an appliance repair shop to come fix it and forget Sears and the useless warranty. She instead wants us to take her to the local Sears where she bought it and try to return the fridge for a refund. I'm sure they'll send her packing, but it would be nice if they would at least refund the $400 she paid for the useless warranty on it so she could pay to have someone else come fix it. I feel kind of like Sears is ghosting us or something.

I'm dealing with the same thing for a Father Day gift bought online at Sears and trying to return because it was the wrong one. They are giving me the run around, Customer Service Takes Over 45 min's to just hang up on you and say Call back at a later time, they will not pick up Phone. I hate the online Chat but did it and they said they will send a return Label twice now but haven't. I have the Chat Logs and I'm going to call there Head Quarters and Close my account and I'm going to turn them into BBB because of the Customer service is horrible I would suggest you all do the same that haven't. I have been a customer of theres for 30 + yesrs everything appliance in my house and outside my house has been bought through Sears but I don't know what has happened to this company but they have lost a loyal costumer.

We’re extremely frustrated with the way Sears Home Services is currently handling our service call for our refrigerator that’s stopped working. We placed our initial service call back in April and we’re still waiting for our refrigerator to be repaired.

Two weeks after initial service call the technician shows up and after 30 minutes, says new parts need to be ordered and he’ll have to come back.

Next appointment is scheduled for another two weeks out.

Parts show up within the week. Same technician from previous visit shows up another week later – and declares the wrong parts were shipped. Reordering for parts and next appointment is scheduled for one week out.

Parts show up within the week and a different technician now shows up for the appointment. Takes about 10 minutes before she tells us the ordered parts are wrong -!

At this point I’m looking around to see if I’m being pranked. “Correct” parts is ordered by this technician and next appointment is scheduled for 10 days out.

Again, parts show up and now we have the original technician back for the appointment. 10 minutes later….. I bet you can guess what happens next!

We’ve just received another shipment of parts and waiting for the technician to show up for our appointment next week.

It’s now the first of June and we’re still without a working refrigerator.

Attempts at escalating to management has been unsuccessful. Speaking with the complaint department proved to be useless.

We’ve been long time customers of Sears, as well as renewing our Sears Home Services agreement several times over.

We will never, never, never purchase anything from Sears again.

I too have been a customer of Sears for over 40 years. My father used to take me to Sears and always told me this is where the best tools, washers and dyers are to be bought. I have always had a Kenmore ever since. On April 19, 2019 was the first time I have had the worst service. I purchased the bundle for washer and dryer maintenance service. They gave me a window of 10am to 2pm. The tech finally showed up at 4pm. He then informed me the only thing he was going to do was vacuum out the lint catcher on my dryer and run a cycle on my washing machine. I should him the website https://repair.searshomeservices.com/maintain_clean?sid=HSRxEm8888203342&utm_source=promo&utm_medium=em&utm_campaign=hsr-mnt&bxid=967174122 and told him he was supposed to clean both appliances. He did take the front off the dyer and vacuum and them pulled it out to vacuum behind the dyer after I told him what he needed to do. He never touched the washer. He ran a cycle on the washer and said it was working fine. I asked him if he was going to clean anything and he stated he was a refrigerator repair tech and this was not his job. Then he wanted to charge me extra because someone put the order in incorrectly. I have all the emails where they had to cancel and reconfirm the appointment. He charged me for cleaning the washer when he did nothing. Pictures attached show the condition he left the washer in when he left.

Same problem with Jim, bought a stove, they sold me a converter kit to adjust to my propane. After 4 repairmen, they said the stove could not be converted to propane. Jim is blaming my gas company for converting it wrong. The liar. I have the name of the repairman who claims he has 2 other stoves like this. I'm thinking of going to small claims court!

SEARS refused to give me an adjustment for a Craftsman cordless polesaw less than two years old that no longer works. I ordered from Sears a new battery and a new charger totaling $86.00, but it still doesn't work. Sears refused to:

1)make some kind of adjustment for the polesaw either an exchange, or partial refund;
2)refund me my money for the new charger and battery even though I had receipts, stating I had ordered the charger and battery on line this month. The store manager says the individual stores cannot refund online merchandise EVEN THOUGH THE ONLINE SITE CLEARLY STATES YOU CAN TAKE ANY ITEM ORDERED ONLINE AND RETURN IT TO ANY SEARS STORE.
I walked out leaving the pole saw, the battery and the charger. I'm a SEARS "preferred" customer since 1974. Today I canceled my credit card. I will never walk into a SEARS store again. I surely miss the integrity of the "old" SEARS stores. Everything they have is made in China and of course because it's "crap" they can no longer stand behind it.

I sent a $400 diamond necklace in for repair. The repair company Sears uses said that they shipped it back, even providing a tracking number. When contacted, UPS stated that the package was never sent out. So far... 5 months later I am still chasing the missing necklace. No one from the store seems to want to get involved except Loss Prevention, whom I know personally. The jewelry manager is not helpful at all.

I too had a bad experience with the repair service at Sears. They are experts at giving you the run around. Have tried for 3 days to get a technician out to repair a water heater. I am currently on the phone with them again. I am so frustrated I am ready to just forget all warranties and pay another professional to come out and fix it. Too bad because we've been long-time shoppers of Sears, willing to pay a bit more for better customer service. Well those days are over. I'll buy my appliances and whatever else somewhere else. I wouldn't buy a pair of panty hose at Sears now.

If the person has a receipt and the warranty for said product is covered under it for a period of time (appliances is usually 2 to 5 years) then the store that they purchased it from is obligated to do something about to repair the product. Citibank/Sears credit services (boy what a joker there), can't even keep or, update their records properly. They are either incompetent, stupid (I won't insult handicap people by saying [censor]ed, the handicap people have more intellengence). I say file a complaint with the FTC & BBB then go to every (and I do mean every) news outlet and social network and nail to the wall. Either way good luck.

1. Everything breaks eventually. Unless the product was still under warranty, or you purchased an additional warranty, you are not going to get it replaced. No other store is likely to replace it for you either.

2.There are problems doing online returns in store. I probably could have done it (I work at Sears), but the vast majority of employees do not know how to process an online return. (The store manager at my store doesn't even know how to run a register.) For some reason, the in store computer system does not recognized the online reciepts, even though it is suppossed to. This is, of course, Sears's fault, not yours.

-The pole saw, the battery, and the charger were likely thrown in the garbage. I'm not sure what you were trying to accomplish by doing that. You probably should have taken them home with you and called the online customer service number.

-Sears Credit Cards are owned by Citibank, not Sears. Canceling your Sears Charge has little or no effect on Sears (but may hurt your credit rating).

-Your chances of finding products that were not made overseas are slim to none. You may be able to find some items on specialty online stores, but if you walk into any department store in the country you will be unable to find many American-made items.

if its not in warranty suck it up and move on your fault here 100%

You are correct. Sears should call it Customer NO Service. I ordered a washing machine on line and was told that it was shipped out, only to call back two days later to find out if it was delivered to the store for pickup, and was told that it was on backorder. How could it have been shipped out two day ago, if it is on backorder. They will tell you what you want to hear just to make a sale. I got terrible customer service from the 1-800 number and in the store. They had no explanation. They never even said they were sorry. No worries, I went next door to Lowes bought the same washing machine at a better price, and took it home with. It seems as if Sears could learn a few things from their neighbor. I also will never shop at a Sears again.

HAHAHAAHAHAHAAHAHA I LOVE THIS ONE OOOO BOY !

SO SEARS WHO HAS THE BEST REFUND POLICY ON EARTH WHO ALLOWS you to drag in your rusted ,broken dented ,non working 1 year old merchandise is not good enough now you want 2 years? well hell why not make everything a buy it once and if it ever dies or has a problem it os forever reefundable ? i mean that way there wont be a single store left on earth? ewhy because no one will be able to sell anything at some point in time everyone will be just shopping to exchange stuff no new sales ever ! hahahaahah

I wish I could have actually talked to someone in Customer Service with Sears about the experience that I've just had, but anytime I asked to talk to a supervisor or customer service, they would not transfer my call. So, I can't even complain to Sears since I can't even get through to someone at Sears to complain to! Quite Infuriating!

It started when I ordered a refrigerator last December (after mine broke). I told the salesman exactly which size refrigerator and which kind of door opening (Right-Hand). The salesman poked around on the computer, gave me a price, I paid for it and we set up a delivery date of January 12 (It was a special order). I got a computer call on January 11, stating my delivery window was from 11-1pm the next day, so I was happy that I would finally have a refrigerator in my house, since I had gone through the holidays with no refrigerator at all. January 12 comes and half way through my delivery window, I
get a call from Sears stating that they don't have my refrigerator. So, I ask, why was I called with a delivery window just the day before? Of course, they have no answer to my question. They said they didn't know where the refrigerator was. Hmmm... Isn't that what inventory is for? I received phone calls every day with a computer message to call Sears. So, of course, I call them back, go through all the information, my phone number, my address, etc... (mind you, you have to do this EVERY time to speak to someone new), I finally get to a representative, telling my story yet again, only to find out, there was no new information. I question why I keep receiving phone calls on a daily basis to which they have no answer. Then, I finally get a call the following week (about Jan 16th) saying they have my refrigerator and I scheduled the date for this second delivery for January 19th. Mind you, I paid extra to have the delivery done on a Saturday to save some of my time. Ironic now isn't it? So, I have already sacrificed one Saturday waiting for that call from Sears to tell me when it is convenient for them to deliver my merchandise. So, here I am again, waiting for another Saturday for this refrigerator to be delivered. January 19th comes and I see the Sears truck pull up to my house. They start to take the packaging off my new refrigerator when the delivery guy tells me we have a problem. The door opens the wrong way. Rest assured, I can use this "loaner refrigerator" until the correct one is ordered and delivered. I spoke to a Sears rep that morning after the delivery guy talked with them. She told me a supervisor would call me to get this straightened out. I wait for a few days. No call from a supervisor. So, I spend another couple of days waiting on hold, explaining my story multiple times, trying to find out what happened to the supervisor that is supposed to call me. I was told that there was no note in my record to have a supervisor call So, at this point I am livid at the fact that I can't get help from anyone and I am lied to about having a supervisor call. In speaking to yet another representative, I am told I will have to wait another 2 weeks since it is a special order. In the meantime, that past weekend, the exact same refrigerator was on sale at Sears for $50 less than what I paid. I asked for compensation for all of the trouble and time Sears had caused me in these past 5 weeks (mind you, I would guess at this point I had wasted at least 8 hours of my time between waiting for deliveries, waiting on the phone, explaining the story over and over again). I was told the only thing that could be done is to give me a $50 gift certificate to Sears. So, I'm thinking that after all the trouble that Sears caused me, I get a gift certificate and have to shop again at Sears? I find it appalling that I received no help and no compensation for my trouble, unless you count all the times I heard "I'm sorry for the inconvenience".

I am so angry at this point, I spend more time, go to the store where I originally purchased the refrigerator and cancel my order. Of course, this took about an hour since I had to explain to the employee, who had to call an 800 number, then I had to talk to the 800 number until I thought we had everything straight. So, Sears was to come to my house and pick up the "loaner fridge" on January 26th and give me a full refund. Another saturday that I get to wait around for the Sears delivery crew to come by and pick up the loaner. If only the refund included all the hours I wasted of my time on multiple saturdays as well as on the phone.

So, now all I need is to have my money refunded. I wait 10 days and don't see any refund of any kind. I call the 800 number... again, they tell me to call the store I purchased it from. I call the store, they tell me to call the 800 number. I finally convince the store that I am not calling back and forth. They start investigating the problem. Finally, I have a name and a phone number of someone I can talk to about whats going on. They then tell me that there is no record of the "loaner refrigerator" in their system. I think to myself "Of course there isn't". How many things can go wrong with this one item? After a few more phone calls, I am assured that my refund is in the mail. I have not received it as of yet, but hope the refund is the correct amount... although after this experience, I would not be at all surprised if the refund amount is incorrect.

I honestly don't know how Sears can stay in business when they treat their customers in the manner that I have been treated in these past few weeks. One can only hope a company that has such poor customer service will not stay in business much longer. I spent countless hours trying to understand where the disconnect was happening, in between calling numerous 800 numbers explaining my story hundreds of times.

So, I write this letter up and submit it to Sears Customer Service and my response from them is "We apologize for any inconvenience you may have experienced with the delivery of your merchandise. We want to make sure your issue is addressed, so please contact our Home Delivery group at 1-800-SEARS-[protected]) for assistance" which is of course the 800 number that I had called before and would not transfer me to a supervisor or customer service.

This is just the first of a number of appliances that I am going to be replacing and if you read this whole complaint, I'm sure you see where I will not be purchasing any more appliances.

I purchased a Sears Washer/Dryer unit in Sept. 2007. Within one week of the delivery, I had the repairman out there. He has since been back on numerous occasions. Just getting him to my house, is usually a good week delay, and then the frequently cancel and reschedule on me too. ANYWAY, the latest problem is going to cost $700.00 to fix. The unit was $1100.00, which Sears has spent more than that to fix this lemon so far. I want a new unit, but Sears told me they will not replace it. I didn't have my washer/dryer working the week of Christmas (and I had a lot of company), now I am not going to have it for the Memorial Day Weekend holiday, and again am having a lot of family visiting. I don't know what I can do. The warranty is up in Sept. 2008, and if (when) it breaks, I am not going to be able to afford to fix it. I am 73 years old and on Social Security with a fixed income. I could never be able to come up with $700.00 to fix this thing.

So the water to the unit was turned off, yet it still leaked water somehow. You didn't question this when the tech was out? Use some logic people! Seems obvious to me that THE WATER WAS NOT OFF! DO you not have some basic sense or knowledge of your own home on how to turn off the water to specific rooms or fixtures? I'm amazed at the lack of common sense from the average consumer.

Same story. I bought a dishwasher and had Sears deliver it. Expensive, but convenient. My wife was home with they showed up, and it wasn't Sears employees, but local plumbing flunkies. They immediately declared the old dishwasher hookup to be "not to code", and said they would have to charge another $250 to do the job. What could my wife do? if she had pressed the point, they most likely would have left with the dishwasher, and it would have been a time consuming and expensive effort to get someone else to install the thing. So she gulped, paid them, and they installed the thing and were out of there in less than an hour. Maybe the ancient dishwasher hookup wasn't up to code, but it is fishy to say the least that they use that as a pretext to double their price for less than an hour's work. As Mrs. Wright said, neither Sears nor their flunkies are ethical. Needless to say, the Sears representative I spoke to about this was unsympathetic to the point of rudeness.

Totally agree. Terrible experience with Sears delivery. This past Saturday was the 3rd attempt to deliver our refrigerator. First, wrong one. Second one, damaged. And now the 3rd one, also DAMAGED. The delivery guy says he told the people at the warehouse that he didn't want to take it because it was obviously damaged, and they told him to try and deliver it anyway. What the heck? Were they trying to slip another damaged one by the customer. Did they think we wouldn't care, or did they just not want to have to deal with it? The delivery guy felt like he was getting stuck in the middle and the warehouse didn't want to talk with us. Sears customer service was completely unprofessional, could not help, other than trying to order another one. Never apologized. When I asked to speak to his supervisor, he put me on hold for a 1/2 hour and no one ever came back. I'm even madder now and dealing with the Sears appliance center in Tampa to try and get this resolved, but let me save you the aggravation if you're considering buying from Sears. DON'T DO IT!

Wow, the dishwasher fiasco sounds almost identical to mine. Too long of a story to get into and tired of talking about it. But yes, Sears and the installers they use are not very ethical.

I agree. SEARSsucks is a rip off. Double oven started giving F7 error. Tech came out and said I hear you're getting an F9 error. I said no - F7. He said it was the control board. Ordered a new one. Next week different tech came out and installed the new board. Less than an hour later the new board was giving the F7 error. After I had paid SEARSsucks $575.28. Now they're refusing to refund my money. They will send a tech to remove my new board but they won't give me back my old board or my money? Sent a complaint to the Governor's Office of Consumer Affairs. There are tons of websites regarding the Kenmore F7 issue. It's more of a product defect that they won't discuss. NEVER buy from SEARSsucks

If you had of bought the Ppa protection plan then you could demanded a new washer instead of having the warranty to fix it.

Sooo, what is the problem? Brick and mortar stores can't be expected to match prices of online only retailers who only pay for a small web team, warehousing and shipping. Sears provides you with experts on products as well as an actual product to touch and look at in person. If you use a sales person to gather your info, then buy online, not only is that unethical treatment of that person who took the time to help you, you are just a bad person.

It does say the return policy on the receipt if you just turn it over that pretty blue writing on the back states that you have 90 days to return or exchange items, and the 90 day return policy is actually one of the longest ones here in Canada. If you went to Wal-mart, you would only have 14 days with your receipt to be able to return something.

Are you actually reading your comment? WHO BUYS A CHRISTMAS GIFT IN AUGUST?!

Just saw reviews on Amazon to replace the door handle with this third party provider
http://ohiosolutions.net/high_strength_aluminum_dryer_handle
Hope this is helpful.

We have gone through four plastic replacement handles and are now trying this option.

I agree completely. We have ours just two years. Ours keeps doing it too.

it was New years day my dryer broke and I knew Sears had a Tuesday delivery date in my area, so I went on-line to order. I saw what I wanted and called to make sure I could get delivery Tuesday. I ordered the dryer that matched my washer. this was model # 78132 a Kenmore 8.8 ft. capacity Item 02678132000P. I printed the description which I always do. The description states clearly that this model has a Steam refresh cycle which was important to me. That Tuesday 1/3 the delivery came to home, my daughter was home to accept. I was working. When I got home I inspected and realized the model had no Steam refresh cycle. I called spoke to someone who said she set up for return and new delivery and someone would call me, I waited 1 1/2 weeks no one called. I called back and again someone told me a sears .com person would call, no one did a few days late I called and was forwarded to technical support who reviewed the item on the website and agreed that there was a problem obviously with the website if they had delivered the correct Model #, I called the corporate number and was told they could give me a refund pick up the item but I would have to pay the additional charge of $ 100 for the correct item. It appears that sears com fraudulently listed that this item had the steam fresh cycle at the $799 price, I finally got a call back from Sears .com stating they would redeliver the correct but when it came it was the same one I had received already. After numerous phone calls of 30 -40 minutes and numerous transfers and the refusal to make good on the item that was on the site I am seriously never buying from Seers or soars.com ever. I have been purchasing appliance from Sears for 20 + years and in 2013 I purchased a new stove/ oven $3000- dollars, a new refrigerator almost $3000, a dishwasher over $1000, Microwave with exhaust about $1000 small refrigerator $500- and wine refrigerator for a few hundred dollars and I cannot believe that Sears would not make good on their error. It is false advertising. It would have cost them the difference in the price and I would have been happy and remained a customer.. By the way they did correct the website when I said I was filing a complaint with consumer affairs. DON'T TRUST WHAT YOU SEE AND READ ON SEARS .COM.

I attempted to purchase a TV via Sears.com, relying on their easy pick-up option. I found that the model I wanted was available at a store about 45 minutes from my home. and placed my order. The following morning, I received an e-mail from Sears indicating that the TV was ready for pick-up and instructing me to scan the bar code in the e-mail when I arrived. I did so, but was notified by store personnel that, in fact, they had no such TV. Very long story short: After hours and hours on the phone with customer service, maybe a dozen e-mail exchanges, and traveling to the store and back for no reason, I have an $1800 charge on my VISA for a TV that never existed. Apparently, once I scanned my e-mail, the TV shows as having been "shipped" and it may take a week or longer (I'm still waiting 10 days later) to reverse the error Sears made in selling a TV that it did not have. Customer service at Sears.com is quick to apologize, but does nothing... even though my transaction was with Sears.com, they indicate that the problem (i.e., MY problem) is with the store.

And... while all of this has transpired, I purchased the same TV via Amazon.com... free delivery and $500 cheaper... works great.

BUYER BEWARE: DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH SEARS.COM!

I ordered 3 of a certain product from sears. They only sent 1, I called and they said they would send the other, 2 weeks later I called back and they said they didn't have the others. This issue was i couldn't use 1 without the other 2 so what i received was worthless and they not only told me they would send the others, they never contacted me to tell me they couldn't. Good custom service can be so hard to find!

DO NOT ORDER FROM SEARS.COM

Placed order through private vendor that Sears has a business "relationship " . I figured Sears was reputable, Sears.com should be safe. Order confirmation and shipping notice emailed almost immediately, charged my account, NEVER RECEIVED PRODUCT! Sears. com now saying not their problem, need to contact private vendor but contact info. is not valid. SOUNDS LIKE A SCAM!

My Bank card was charged $762.36 on 10/19/09 for services or products not bought or authorized by me.

I will not ever purchase a Refrigerator from Sears! I have purchased three Refrigerators from Sears. The first one lasted about ten years and lightening took it out alone with my stove. The second time same thing happen. Bad weather and lightening hit just the refrigerator. So I went and purchased this one a Kenmore, just 18 months ago and it stop working the first time back in February. It took a week before the service man could come out. In the mean time we lost all our meat that was frozen. He put some Freon it in it and it started back working. Well in April it stop working again, we where out of town and we lost everything in our refrigerator. I have RA which calls for injections that has to be refrigerated they told us they could come out to check around May 15th. Now that that was like 3 weeks.. I can not believe the service. We purchased a lemon. They know it. I did not purchase extended warrant so we wasn't able to get it fixed. The compressor went bad a little over a year. What kind of mess is that. They would help us get new one or try to help us get it fix. Do NOT Purchase your appliances from SEARS! They don' t care about their customers. Thank you, Ex customer in Petal MS.

I've never had a problem in maybe 6 or 7 purchases.

I have had the worst experience ever with Sears. We had a dishwasher delivered about 2 months ago. The driver hit my truck. I have been talking with a so called supervisor manager along with other reps from Sears with no avail. The damage done to my parked vehicle was 1200 to 1300, I was offered $150. I have sent a copy of the estimate, pictures everything they have asked for and no one can help. They won't tell me who the insurance company is. My next step will be within this next week is to call the police and possibly claim it as a hit and run. Then I will have to take it to small claims. I am just not sure at this time who to send the claim to. I am afraid to purchase my next big item there I think I am going to have to boycott the store for lack of customer service and compassion for the customer.

Liz R. from Sears sent me the very nice e-mail below. However, I have e-mailed to the address she gave me twice to no avail. I don't know what is more frustrating; dealing with the phone reps for Sears or being given a ray of hope that Sears will stand behind the repairs their representatives made and then they just don't respond. Seems like a ploy to make people reading these complaints think that they are actually taking action. Very disappointing!

I have a stainless steel convection oven that is 8 years old. The extended warranty on the oven ended in 2010 . Repairs were done by Sears prior to 2010. During the warranty period, I contacted Sears because the racks fell down in the stove. This happened one day when I had a roast in a heavy cast iron pot in the stove. When the pot fell, it broke the bottom burner and caused the oven to heat up to 500 degrees. When I came in from outside and opened the oven and saw what had happened, I grabbed my mitts and took the pot out of the oven. The pot was so hot it burned me thru the mitts and I dropped the pot on the top of the oven chipping the glasstop. A Sears repairman came out and looked at the oven and ordered parts. He said in his 30 years he had only seet the oven liner pop out twice. It took 3 or 4 times before the stove was totally fixed - all parts in, which meant I had to take off 4 days of vacation, because Sears repair doesn't give you a time they will be there just a day. It cost more in parts than the stove cost new to fix the stove, not counting gas and labor for the repairman. I had asked for a new stove or voucher at that time and was told this wasn't Sears practice. Sears practice was to repair first and then issues continued to replace. Now the liner is again heaving out causing the racks to drop, so I cannot use my oven. Sears Customer Solutions told my husband to put on the Basic Service Plan and after 30 days on the plan call for repairs. If the stove couldn't be fixed, then it would be replaced. I checked the terms and conditions of this plan before purchasing and found that you must have an appliance in working order, which ours is not. I called back to Sears Customer Solutions and asked them about this, because I didn't want to be fraudulent. They then told me on 5/10/13 to put on The Service Smart Agreement for $253.00 and if the repairman couldn't fix my oven or if it was going to cost over $500.00, they would give me a $500.00 voucher for a new oven. Seriously, I should have to pay $253.00 to get $247.00 off a new oven because I was sold a defective product that was fixed or should I say not really fixed, because it is still defective. I'm told this is all Sears can do for me. Just a FYI that model #[protected] is noted on the intranet by many other people who had the same product issue - liner heaving out - racks falling. Sears originally told us to call Frigidaire. Frigidaire told us as soon as the Kenmore name is put on the product it is Sears problem. Sears stated that the stove is 8 years old. Really, who replaces an expensive stove at 8 years old unless they have to or they are changing the entire look of their kitchen and when that happens, they can resell the old appliance. We can't resell this stove - it is dangerous. Sears won't stand behind the defective product they sold us, nor will they stand behind the repairs done. We didn't chose the repairman, they did. The repairman was hired by Sears and Sears should back the work. Shame on Sears, especially considering we have been a Sears credit card holder for 30 years and over those 30 years done a lot of business with Sears as we felt they were a reputable business.

My Kenmore range caught fire on Sunday, November 16th. The only way to disconnect the power was to throw the circuit breaker. After it cooled off I attempted to turn the power back on, but the element overheated again and scorched my stove and kitchen cabinets. Once again, I had to throw the circuit breaker to get the oven turned off. If I had not been home, the house would have burned down. I was not even using the stove at the time the oven element came on. I am sure there are other horror stories out there. Who knows how many homes have burned from this appliance and the problems with them.

Oh, man!
Tell me about it!
I was glad my friend noticed the fire in the oven and we could turn it off.
Now I have to try to get the damn stove out and the element out.
No small task for a 70 year old lady in awheel chair.

I SPENT 2000 BUCKS TO GET KENMORE ELITE
RANGER, AFTER ONE YEAR, THE TRIPLE HEATING ELEMENT FAILS, WHAT A SUCK QUALITY!
AND SEARS SERVICE SUCKS TOO!

Similarly with the person from Missouri my wife and I had exactly the same experience with a Sears Stove. After a few years it was slow to heat up and on the day prior to Thanksgiving the bottom oven element caught fire - we wisely did not open the door and let is burn itself out - and it was immediately apparent that the element was a dud.

I got the GE and have had the same problem. Everything nowadays is made by the same few places.
