Professional delivery and installation is available for every product we sell. We would be happy to coordinate delivery and installation for you.

Extended warranties are usually very inexpensive and can save you thousands in the future. Some can even cover extra costs that result, such as cost of food that spoils when your fridge dies. It's simple and inexpensive to purchase extended warranties and one of the smartest ways to protect your investment.

Appliances can be large, heavy and expensive. You probably don't have the special tools or expertise needed to fix them in a crisis. If you can spare a few thousand dollars without batting an eyelash for new appliances should they break tomorrow, don't buy a warranty. But if you're like most of us, protect yourself by purchasing inexpensive extended warranties when you buy a new product and save yourself big money in the long run.

It does the job, but having been with the Whirlpool brand (Kenmore included) for about 40 years. It's somewhat disappointing due to higher sound levels and the absence of the inside light, when you open the door. When asking our sales person about the missing light, he said, that he thought all dryers had that as a standard........... We thought so as well....... I did like the ( Made in America sign )

Very happy with this purchase, I just wish there was the option to use the eco dry cycle but turn off the wrinkle shield. Other than that, no complaints.
