“Appliances are about the only thing I buy at Sears.”
I bought a super-high-efficiency furnace a/c unit from sears some years ago. The first five years I had it, every winter it would die. It has never worked satisfactorily and I won’t ever buy another appliance from them because of it.
The thing that kills me about Sears is they sell a “quality” product and then do the strong sale on the extended warrenty.
