Oregon ranks 41st of the 49 states carrying Kenmore, against 16 in Texas. Thin coverage here is a limit of this directory rather than a statement about the market: 14 other businesses are listed in Oregon, and at this tier most of them can take a Kenmore job — ask when you call.
Counted from the 3 profiles above, not from a survey. Everything a business states about itself is reported as a claim.
Oregon holds 3 listed Kenmore businesses, out of 275 nationwide. That ranks 41st of the 49 states with any, level with Mississippi and behind Texas on 16. They are 3 of the 17 businesses listed in Oregon — 18% of the state directory.
Their ratings average 4.6, level with the 4.6 average across all 275 listed nationwide, and 3 of the 3 sit at 4.5 or better. None holds a straight 5.0, and none sits below 4.0. Between them they carry 837 reviews, the largest single tally being 683 on Mr. Appliance of Portland in Portland. Rating and review volume are what the businesses' own public profiles report — treat a high average on six reviews differently from the same average on six hundred.
By review volume the group is led by Mr. Appliance of Portland in Portland (683 reviews, 4.8), A-Appliance Repair Service LLC in Tigard (134 reviews, 4.5) and AAA Appliance Service Inc in West Linn (20 reviews, 4.5). By rating it is Mr. Appliance of Portland at 4.8 on 683 reviews, A-Appliance Repair Service LLC at 4.5 on 134 reviews and AAA Appliance Service Inc at 4.5 on 20 reviews. Those are two different questions and they rarely give the same answer — volume tells you a company has been doing this at scale, a high average on a handful of reviews tells you much less.
All 3 state that they are licensed, and all state that they carry insurance. On top of that, 2 show a Better Business Bureau accreditation and 1 publishes a parts-and-labor warranty term in the profiles. None advertises round-the-clock emergency cover, so call early in the day and ask directly. All of that is self-stated in the listing, not verified here: ask for the license number and a current certificate of insurance, and for anything that opens a sealed refrigerant system ask to see federal EPA Section 608 certification, which is required in all fifty states.
2 of the 3 publish a founding year: the longest-established has been trading since 2002, and the median across those that say is 17 years. Portland holds the most at 2 — 67% of the group — followed by West Linn on 1, across 2 Oregon cities with an index page. Between them they name 13 distinct towns, suburbs and neighborhoods in their stated service areas, so coverage reaches well past the cities listed here — give your address when you call rather than assuming.

The brand decides the parts route and the labour skill; the state decides the labour rate and the drive time. Both matter, and only one of them is on the quote.
The badge on a Kenmore tells a technician nothing useful; the model number tells them everything. Kenmore models carry a three-digit prefix before the decimal point, and that prefix identifies which manufacturer actually built the machine — which in turn identifies the service documentation, the fault codes and the parts list. A shop that asks for the full model number before it will quote is not stalling, it is doing the only thing that works. It also means the usual homeowner shortcuts fail here. Your neighbour's Kenmore quote is not a benchmark for yours, because the two machines may share nothing but the name on the door.
The best-stocked parts situation in the trade. OEM components are easy to source, aftermarket equivalents exist for most of them, and a technician will often have the common failure on the van rather than ordering it. Compare parts suppliers before you agree to an OEM-only quote.
Category prices lifted to the mid-range tier at 1×, the same multiplier the value estimator uses. The line is half the replacement price: above it, on a machine past two-thirds of its life, replacing usually wins. National figures, not Oregon quotes.

The same 3 businesses also cover wine cooler (1), which Kenmore does not build. That is useful rather than irrelevant: one visit can cover two machines, and a second job on the same call-out costs far less than a second call-out.
