Never Again
December 24, 2022

I will never again use Sears to order an appliance. I should have done better research before ordering. There was no communication between the order department and delivery companies. I waited for weeks playing phone tag with various delivery companies. Sears gave delivery date confirmations and the delivery companies had no idea what I was referring to. I had to cancel my order and then placed several calls regarding my full refund. Totally unprofessional! Use another business to avoid the confusion.

We purchase a refrigerator with washer and dryer. A little over $1000 warranty. My refrigerator stopped working in july 2020 called and they say the only time available is august. Waited for august, and the guy order the part then says waiting on part takes about 2 weeks. It is now about to hit Thanksgiving. Every call we called since October because our refrigerator doesn't want to work and they keep sending us the round abouts. Giving us different numbers to call, different dept etc. Its about to hit Thanksgiving and my refrigerator had problem since July? This is bull$#*!. I'm sorry we paid over $1000 for warranty and our food keeps going bad and we've lost so much money for this refrigerator and they haven't even reimbursed us a dime. Still counting... probably won't have our refrigerator running til next year. We been storing our dairy perishable in a mini fridge.

Most horrible!
July 21, 2020

The item was misrepresented. I spent countless hours trying to make it right.
The very worst service - missing shelves, broken promises.
Waiting for 2 years for damn shelves. My tenant is very angry.
I am SO VERY sorry I bought from Sears outlet.

Do not use installers
October 28, 2020

New dishwasher is sitting in my garage. I paid for installation. The DW was delivered by two guys who ARE NOT PLUMBERS, and could not deal with a stuck hot water valve; hey, the DW has been in use for 15 years, the faucet's probably never been closed. I'm not surprised it's stuck, and surely this can't be that uncommon? Well, the "not plumbers" gave up (after I showed them how to turn the water off in my house) after making a bit of a mess. Am now paying much more to a highly reputable company to get the thing installed tomorrow. I do not recommend searsOutlet/American freight.

I bought a LEMON from my local Sears Outlet in San Diego (Morena Blvd.). Within 6 mo. The machine started making a knocking sound. Repair tech came out March 4,2020. Diagnosed needing 4 new springs! Repair sched. For April 28. Springs installed, tested, trouble with lid switch. Tech ordered control board, interface, capacitor, lid lock and pressure sensor. May 29, tech came to repair, but realized control board was still not here. The email communication and phone communication with this company is THIRD WORLD. TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE! I get disconnected on phone after waiting for 20 minutes to speak with someone in Malaysia. I am going to the outlet now owned by American Freight and demand they take my appliance back with FULL REFUND or i will take them to Small Claims Court with all my evidence.

Awful
May 12, 2020

Beware buyers. They claim the items they sell are new (out of the box or whatever but new) but they are not. Mine was actually used (it had water in the lines when I got it) and the machine has missing pieces. Mine had missing parts from the Agitator). I think they should tell these things to the potential buyers so we have something to go by and make a decision. I am never buying from there again.

Beware! Scams!
December 1, 2020

We ordered a fridge online for delivery from our local store. The Samsung 4-door with the family hub aka a tablet in the door. This fridge was labeled as "Like New - Out of Box". We got a call about major dents in the fridge. This concerned me that I wasn't getting the product I paid $2500 for.

Turns out ALL of the refrigerators are mislabeled. NONE of them are the models or conditions that are listed online. The fridge they were going to deliver is the basic model fridge that only costs $1800 brand new!

Now, we're cancelling our order and going to Lowes and Sams Club tomorrow to make sure we get what we're paying for and get a comprehensive service plan.

I made a frantic and unpredicted trip to Sears Outlet, Shrewsbury today to make purchases for my home remodeling. I was pleased to be met with excellent customer service. I was also happy to find the store and all employees prepared for Covid-19. During my transaction, i made inquiries that required the expertise of the manager and found him to be very knowledgeable and cordial. Thank you and the staff at the Shrewsbury Outlet store.

Sears home warranty
April 6, 2024

Called to schedule appointment. Took 35 minutes to get a representative. Schedule appointments for the next day. Repairman called and said it was not covered by warranty. I have a warranty on all my appliances and have had since I bought them, all from Sears. Called back had to wait another 55 minutes and was assured I was covered and a repairman would be out to check my appliances. I contacted the repairman he said that the status of my service call has not changed and I would be responsible for the service call. I told him I was not going to pay because I had a warranty. Call Sears back waited another 55 minutes. Was told they had a scheduling problem and that a representative would be calling me back with in the next hour with new scheduling time. That was 16 hours ago. I'm on hold now with the approximately 48 minutes waiting time. I have been doing business with Sears for over 30 years and I'm truly disappointed in the warranty service

We recently moved and couldn't get appliances due to manufacturer's backorders. Therefore, we purchased a refrigerator here- big mistake. Supposed to deliver it between 2-4 today and didn't show up until 5! Told them I had to leave to pick up my son from school and I couldn't stay. They said they would set it up, but need to take two doors down to bring it inside. I said that's fine, but to look at for cats. When I returned, no refrigerator... No note, phone call anything! I called and they said they left because they needed someone to be there for the installation. To have it redelivered could take weeks! I want my money and time back!

I used to love Sears, no more. We needed a new washer & chose a Kenmore which we have used for years. We were promised delivery, hookup & hsul away for 3 days away. Next day the auto attendant started calling in a recorded message stating that our order would be delayed. We tried soeaking with Sears 22 times over the next 24 hours with mostly lousy connection quality. Some of the Sears agents almost spoke English. Several said Sears does not install but will leave washer in driveway. Some agents said they would call back with answers, but didn't. Finally an agent who could communicate said delivery would be delayed 3 weeks because the warehouse was out of inventory.

It seems rather basic that inventory would be checked at the time of the sale one day before. Duh!

We canceled & purchased a different brand, an even better washer at an even better price with next day delivery.

We will never buy Sears again. So sad.

Ordered a dishwasher online to be picked up. A day later they tell me they no longer have that dishwasher in stock. The email was a so sorry email. In the middle was the sentence "Let us make it up to you." So I call the store to see how this might happen. They said they didn't write it, customer service did. Call them Goodbye.
I call customer service and they tell me that the order had been canceled and they didn't write the email, the store did. Well, I've got no dishwasher and my credit is still processing. No wonder Sears is going out of business. A sad end for a once decient company.

Don't buy from Sears Outlet. I purchased an Out of Box refrigerator which included pictures. What was delivered was not the refrigerator that I purchased. The delivered refrigerator was severely damaged and had been previously used. I called Customer Service whom agreed that the refrigerator could be returned since it wasn't what I purchased. The CS rep tried calling the Marietta, GA store *******737) and no one answered. Since the CS rep couldn't get them on the phone I was instructed to call. No one answered the phone after two days of calling.

3 Week and Haven't Shipped
September 27, 2017

Purchased an AC unit 3 weeks ago, has yet to be shipped. I called in almost daily after the first week, the only response I got was "we will contact you with updates within 24-48 hours" or "we have acknowledged your concern"... I am still waiting for my order to get shipped, this is 3+ week now, unbelievable. The most frustrating part is they don't care, and shoots you away when you call with false promises of finding out what the problem is. Incredibly frustrated, please be careful purchasing from these guys. They hold onto your money and doesn't make an effort to ship, and they don't even have the courtesy of informing you about delays or problems. You will just sit there and wait wondering where your order is.

Stay away from these guys, simply incompetent shipping system and customer service.

Natalie was Great!
January 29, 2020

My refrigerator died and was in need of one today. Went to the Sears Outlet in West Haven, CT with worked with Natalie. She showed me several models that would fit my space and had the features I wanted. And then she let us peruse them on our own, so we could talk and decide which one we wanted. She was very easy to work with. We ended up purchasing one with a 5 year warranty and the price was pretty good. I am happy with the service Natalie provided, and plan to return in the future when I need other appliances.

This is a dent and ding resale store. The salesman was the most charming man I've ever met. Showed me exactly what I wanted. The price was 35% less than the retail store. The stove had one small nick in the paint. I can fix that with an enamel repair kit. Was impressed with what they have to offer.
