  • Kenmore water softener
Color: Gray Size: 32,000 Grain Softener
I have used Kenmore for over 10 years. Very reliable. Will be quick to install if you use your handyman or service provider. The $7 Costco 40lb salt bags will work just fine. Highly recommended.

  • Kenmore? Never again.
Color: Gray Size: Hybrid Softener / Filtration System
They shipped me an out of date product at top price, which was cracked. They shipped it from Florida, and it took weeks to arrive. And when it arrived, the case was cracked, which of course didn't show until it filled itself and leaked briney water everywhere. I also lost 2 bags of potassium salt because of their defective machine. A month later, I am still waiting for my refund-and this is a lot of money. I would never trust Kenmore again. I will be more careful buying from non-Amazon vendors on here in the future. ... show more

  • Too large
Color: Gray Size: 40,000 Grain Softener
I wanted this water softener. But it was to large for the space where it was to go. I love my Kenmore products. If someone needed a water softener would say try kenmore

  • Easy replacement for my older Kenmore
Color: Gray Size: 32,000 Grain Softener
This was an easy replacement for my 2008 series 300. The bypass valve is slightly different on the new one so I continue to use the old one to minimize re-piping. The new recharging system uses a longer brine fill and brine empty cycle than before but so far so good. Many of the wear parts are the same as the older unit - O-rings, valve disc, valve housing so repairs, if needed, will be as before. The display board has been updated to provide for more options however does not appear to be improved to protect against saltwater fume corrosion -- one of the reasons I needed to replace my older unit. The rectangular exterior shape has a slightly different footprint and lid opening is a bit smaller for adding salt but not a big deal. I have been using a similar design Kenmore water softener for over 40 years and will expect this new design to provide a similar service life and good quality softened water. ... show more
