Anything with "Kenmore" on it, the bulk of which is made by Whirlpool/Maytag. So if something goes wrong, it's with Whirlpool/Maytag engineering.
With that said, I have one of the fanciest Kenmore digital W&D's when they first came out with digital controls, steamers, fluffers, you name it. I think they're the Oasis mode line and they're now 10 years old and have had ZERO problem with it from a normal operational functionality standpoint. They run pretty much 24/7 too, so it's not just a matter of a once a week use kinda thing. The dryer gets used more because it has the steaming system to "refresh" things. and we're constantly throwing shit in there in the morning before we head out.
What I WILL say was a piss-poor design, again by Whirlpool/Maytag on it, is the lint collection system. We have nearly burned the house down twice because it gets places it shouldn't (I.E. the heating mechanism) in the bottom of the dryer, this despite annual cleanings, it literally starts a fire. Happened just before Christmas as a matter of fact. Put some clothes in for the Wife (she had a girls night out that night and asked me to switch things over). So I left the house to go to Best Buy, come back and smoke was billowing out from under it. I spent the rest of that Saturday with it in parts on my hallway floor cleaning it on my own.
At the other house, I have some basic Kenmore Series 80 W&D bought probably around 1995. ZERO issues whatsoever. I use those for my heavy duty stuff like dirty car towels, clothes, etc...
Point being, you don't need to have basic to avoid issues. They're all made cheaply regardless and pretty much any major repair to a basic or fancy one, it may just be cheaper to buy a new set regardless. Really appliances are become disposable Bic Lighters anymore.
