“OMG these crooks, I had a service guy out March 23 2024 to check my Fridge which cost $120. The fridge needs a LG compressor replaced per service. We decided to repair the cost was $609.87. I paid the technician on the spot they were shipping parts. The follow up appt was scheduled for April 1st 2024 between 8-5pm well I had a text at 6.30am saying repair appt was confirmed and guess who never showed. Waited til 6.30pm called 3 times during day to get an estimated time for tech arrival - nothing. They said the computer systems had been down since Friday, haha - their text message for appt confirmation was a dead end '500 / please try again in awhile', all week now same message. Well over 5 hours on phone only now Thursday to be told they couldn't reschedule because tech left the repair open. While on the call I logged in Sears.com home repairs it says completed. Customer service rep from India says he put in a request to contact that should happen within 72hrs well don't include the weekend. Anybody need a $1435 boat anchor. Never again!!! Sears sucks”
“I have been without a dryer since Feb 6. I had a service call on February 14 to see the problem. Due to parts being order and 2 appointments the technician did not show up. It’s now April 1st and my dryer still not working after they came today and left parts off and did not test the dryer after the repair.
My home warranty is using them as a contractor and this is the worst service or had since I been in my home and it’s been 17 years. Please do not use them.”
“I orders a part that came from Sears.com Marketplace. Thought sears was reliable but finding out they are not! Part came and was missing mounting gaskets. Called sears part direct was first told the order was not from them then the lady saw it was ordered from market place gave a number to call that went right back to sears.com asked for some security was nothing but a run around unable to call or even contact them on line. I'm done with sears! They don't care anymore about the customer i'm out the money for a useless part.”
“I’ve always had Kenmore appliances and if I need a service I had no issues. However this time I had a washer that needed repair. So I called for a service appointment. They had an appointment right away but I had an appointment I couldn’t change so then they had nothing for 3 weeks . That’s crazy right off but I took it. So off course I need parts so they order them & schedule my appointment out another two weeks which makes it five weeks but I mean you have to order parts so that’s ok. Also the parts came in early so they moved my appointment up by three days. So I’m happy but then I get a text a day before my service saying they need to cancel my appointment and reschedule and it will be two more weeks which makes me without a washer for about two months. I’m upset especially since they moved my appointment up and now they are rescheduling at the earliest two weeks longer! Why ~ so I try to call and get a live person but I just get those customer service people and they can’t help me. They send me back to an automated system where I am prompted to reschedule! No live person available. How frustrating so finally I get on a chat where i literally just lost it because I was told no one would be in my area for two to three weeks! I said that's your problem I had an initial appointment and you moved it up so why did you do that if you had no one in the area? I told them I needed my washer fixed and this wasn’t acceptable but they said that was the best they could do! So I get off that chat and decide to get into a new chat complaining about this issue. Oddly the representative tells me they can keep my original appointment and rescheduled it. After I was told 10 minutes earlier there was no way they could change my appointment time. At this point I’m holding my breath wondering if they will even make it to my appointment ~ they are all over the map and don’t know what they are doing & you can’t talk to a live representative if you have an issue which is totally unacceptable. So I’m never buying Kenmore appliances again because if you don’t have service availability in a reasonable time frame and they switch it all around for any reason then it’s basically unacceptable to even own their product. No one wants to do without major appliances for over two months. It’s totally horrible service. I haven’t been this angry 😡 in a long time. Sad”

“They are nothing but a rip off. The tech spent a total of two minutes scanned the model sent to his office and one minute later, he come back with it will cost $ 463.00 to fix and need to order part. I said that is almost as much as a new washing machine. He said i know, so i delcined the repair and had to pay $ 119 for the 10 min rip off.
DO NOT EVER USE THEM TO REPAIR RIP OFF ONLY !!!!!”
“The online sales is a scam. You think you are purchasing from. SEARS but you are not! It's a 3rd party marketer and it is impossible to get any response from Sears or the marketer for returning their cheap crappy low quality products. DO NOT BIY ANYTHING FROM SEARS, ITS ALL A SCAM.”
“I made the mistake of ordering a part for my GE range from Sears. I specifically gave the salesperson the code number of the part. But he insisted you do not worry; I will find a part which he said has five lighters. However, when asked to send me a picture, he did not want to send me a picture. Anyway, I felt he works for Sears, so he would not lie. That was a big mistake. Sears is no longer a good company as I had known it 20 years ago. It is a scam.
However, I got a part that was not even close to what I had asked for. So I returned it right away, which they received four days later. I waited for my refund, which never came. So I called ten days later. After going through all the buttons the computer asked for, I finally reached a person (by the way, there is no option for a refund) who transferred me to the person in charge of the refund. She admitted it had been 11 days since the refund had not been issued and promised to email me within an hour to confirm that it had been issued. It is now two days later, with no refund or email. I tried to contact Sears again, but the computer only tells me to go online but there is no option for a refund. It is the worst company I have dealt with, and I will never contact or do business with Sears again.
I always check reviews of a company before I do business with it. But I trusted the old Sears, so I did not bother. However, when it did this to me, I checked its reviews and discovered that Sears gets the lowest review, 1 out of five.”
“Do not ever order from Sears. I will never work with Sears again. I have never been more disgusted with a company. I ordered a dishwasher on Dec 19. After several calls and complaints, it finally got delivered Jan 18. But not installed. I have been on the phone now with “customer service”—TERRIBLE—for over half an hour. I spoke with Julian, who put me on hold to “speak with his team”, and I ended up being transferred to “parts”, then transferred again, put on hold and hung up on. This company is a joke now. So sad, Sears used to be great. I’m now working on getting reimbursed for installation—since the dishwasher is now just sitting in my dining room. Wish me luck, AND NEVER USE SEARS.”
“Sear is the one of the worst company to have issues with. I got their $400 3 year protection agreement on my oven that goes out every year right around Sept or Oct. I paid over 5k for it and it made it 1 year before it started having problems. I took the 5 year plan out when I got it and now I have this plan going on year 6. Well it not working again right around Oct tech came out didn't do much and said we have to order a part here it is January and still haven't gotten the part. I called in on the 14 of Dec and they said they would replace it and I would get email in 7 or 10 business days. I never got anything I called back today Jan 9 and now there part on its way and they won't replace it. Now just so everyone knows this is the 4 Thanksgiving and Christmas my family has gone without oven and microwave because it's a combo unit. They see that they said they would replace but since the parts been ship now they won't and I have to wait to get the part before I can set up the appt for the tech to come out. So it be probably another 2 or 3 weeks for that happens and the best thing is if this don't fix it we get to start this all over again. SEARS doesn't care about there customers period can't even talk to management”
“We have been waiting 10 weeks to have our microwave repaired. We have had 4,service calls and 2 additional scheduled, where. NoI one showed up. We have a Master Protection plan, for our home appliances. It is for repair or replace! Every part in our microwave has been replaced and it still does not work! They have refused to replace the microwave. This just screams scammers ! Please do not buy a protection plan through Sears!I have never had such poor service in my 72 years!! They won’t allow you to speak to the repair company!! Huge red flag!! Please spare yourself all the aggravation and their many bogus excuses!! Go to another company!!

“Your reply to an automated email from Sears Home Services was sent to an unmonitored email address. If you need assistance, please visit us at Searshomeservices.com. I have tried to cancel my warranty and there are no reps. I had a service repair scheduled that I did not receive a confirmation or cancellation. That was 2 months ago and the because the repair order is still open. My contract cannot be cancelled.”
“I did order an oven door. Sear made a mistake and made 2 orders .Chat with them the same day they said the problem will be solved today and cancelled one of the order . They took my money of course . 22 days after and 5 chat with them no money back and now i am with 2 doors so i have to return one .
All the personnon the chat was a lyer because they said that i can trust them to solve the pb but nothing was done”
“Absolutely unacceptable practices.... fridge quit working 1 yr after purchase... no one will stand behind it... tell me sorry for the inconvenience but might take over a month for parts to come in... but sorry for the inconvenience of no fridge....
Tell you to call Kenmore for warranty, Kenmore tells you they are just a name and don't stand behind their products”
“Absolutely horrible experience. Had someone out to fix the washer- a $620 part was ordered. SEARS cancelled the order and never notified us. It’s been 2 months and I am still waiting on a refund. There have been no accommodations made to make up for the money or time lost. If you need to call customer service, I wish you luck trying to figure out the secret combination to talk to an actual person!”
“We bought a fridge in 2020 it only lasted a little over 1 year before it stopped working then because of the pandemic they said they couldn't get parts so from March of 2021 until September of 2021 we did not have a refrigerator at all they finally replaced that refrigerator with a new one now the new one is having the same problems as the other one getting a technician from Sears to come fix it is ridiculous we had to call another company to come fix the refrigerator just to be informed it was a showroom refrigerator not a new one and the part that needs to be fixed isn't even around I will never buy another thing from Sears again they used to be a good company”
“Sears Home Warranty has the worst service, even their repair techs complain about how poorly they are treated. There is no communication or customer service as everything is automated in a system where you are not able to make a complaint. They are so bad at doing business its pathetic, and frustrating as a customer who pays a monthly fee and every time I need any kind of repair it is harder and harder to get any kind of satisfactory job done. I can not stress the disfunction enough of this company in coordinating repairs. Sears uses Cinch to coordinate and one does not let the other know what they are doing it is frustrating.”
“Bad bad customer service - they delight in playing the “we’ll be there tomorrow between eight and five” game - the don’t show - then reschedule - then don’t show - then reschedule- then don’t show - their technicians have many medical emergencies that prohibit them from showing up - but they can’t be bothered to send a text or call to let anyone know - they set up a phone system that takes you in circles - (that way they can dodge accountability) STAY AWAY from this company - read the reviews - they are shifty and scammy”
