Kenmore HE5t Steam Washer 47781 Review and Prices

 

Kenmore's top-of-the-line HE5t Steam Washer 47781 takes one of the largest-capacity front-loading machines around and adds two advanced features to it -- steam and a timed Oxy-release dispenser.

Huge capacity, innovative steam for cleaning oil-based stains, water and energy efficient, timed Oxy-release dispenser for cold-water stains

Expensive, some consumers have reported tangling, cycles may run a bit longer than on traditional top-loaders

love hate relationship

 

love the washer but hate the time needed to wash the clothes under the steam cycle or any of the specialty cycles. Love that i have the option to use the cycles but find myself using the express cycle most. small articles of clothing will clog the pump...

Uses that little water and cleans so well!!!???

 

I've had my he5t for years now and am completely satisfied.  So many options, i just don't use them all, but nice to know they're all there.  Express cycle is quick for small easy loads and takes 30 minutes.  The Whitest Whites does take a long time at...

HE5t Washer -Great washer, when it's working

 

We bought the set in August 09.  The 1st washer was replaced within a month, the computer was shot.  The second washer gives me problems frequently, so much that I handle it with kid gloves.  I am constantly getting an error code, & I've been through...

So not worth the money

 

We figured, "what the heck, lets by the best washer/dryer we can". Well I guess these are not the best, just the most expensive at the time. The washer doesn't seem to wash that much better than the old top load I had. I started out using way to much...

This is the one without the steam feature

 

It works great.  Saving money on detergent, clothes come out very clean and with no soap residue.  Bought this because it was the largest capacity washer they had and did not feel the need to pay extra for the steam feature.  However, prices have come...

Excellent washer

 

We just made the jump to this washer from Kenmore - closely related to the Whirpool Duet model as we noticed at a friend's house. After over 35 years with a so-called standard washer.We were worried about whites - but we were wrong, does an ...

Super quiet and washes well, Does not dance on the floor, Washes well

Base could be sold for 1/4 of the price, must be pure profit
