Pros: Large capacity, quiet
Cons: Does not clean clothes...period. Does not rinse well.
The Bottom Line: I can not recommend this washer as it does not wash the clothes. Better off using a dryer sheet in the dryer to make clothes smell better

| qain's Full Review: Kenmore Elite Oasis 27087 Stainless Steel Top Load... |
We purchased this washer with the idea the HE model would lower our bills and clean the clothes at least as well.
The fit and finish is good for a sears model. Everything lines up like it should and it is very quiet. The detergent, bleach, and softener tanks work as advertised, and do a good job of dispensing the detergent.
That's about all I can say I like about this washer. The washer does not clean the clothes, pure and simple. It does a good job at making them smell better, but simply can not clean the clothes. Some would say there is not enough water to clean the clothes, I do not feel this is the flaw. I think when you don't have an agitator in the center to keep the clothes moving, some clothes never get clean. I have had numerous pants, coats, shirts that did not even get wet in the wash cycle. The washer also does not do a very good job at rinsing the clothes. There is a setting to double rinse them, but still there seems to be a residue left on the clothes. However the compliment dryer with the dual blowers is great.
I will be returning this washer, and it's worth the 15% restocking fee sears implements to be rid of it.
