How much does a Kenmore side by side refrigerator weigh?
Most Kenmore side-by-side refrigerators weigh about 250 to 320 lb when empty; your Kenmore 10654393300 typically falls in that range. For the exact shipping and net weight for your specific configuration, check the specifications section in the 10654393300 owner's manual.
Typical weight ranges (what to expect)
- Empty refrigerator (no food): 250 to 320 lb
- With shelves, bins, and ice maker installed: usually the same range (those parts add only a small amount)
- With food loaded: often +50 to 150 lb depending on how full it is
- With doors removed for moving: typically 10 to 30 lb lighter (varies by door style and dispenser setup)
Why the weight matters
Knowing the weight helps us plan safe moving and installation: it affects floor protection, how many people are needed, and whether you should remove heavy components (glass shelves, bins, and drawers) before transporting.
Quick moving checklist for model 10654393300
- Remove food, ice, and the ice bin; dry the freezer to reduce mess.
- Take out heavy interior parts (glass shelves, bins, pans) and pack separately.
- Protect flooring; use an appliance dolly rated above 350 lb.
- Keep the refrigerator upright during transport; avoid laying it on its side.
- After moving, let it stand upright before plugging in (follow the timing guidance in the manual).
Common components you can remove to reduce handling weight
| Removable item | Example part for this model | What it helps with |
|---|---|---|
| Drawer/pan | Refrigerator crisper pan WP2188656 | Reduces weight and prevents cracking |
| Door storage | Refrigerator door bin WP2156022 | Prevents breakage and makes doors lighter |

What are the dimensions of a Kenmore Elite refrigerator?
Kenmore Elite refrigerator dimensions vary by the exact model and style (side-by-side, French door, top freezer). For your Kenmore 10654393300 side-by-side refrigerator, the most reliable way to get the exact height, width, and depth is to use the specifications section in the owner's manual.
Typical Kenmore Elite size ranges (what most customers see)
Even within “Kenmore Elite,” dimensions change based on capacity and door style. Most full-size refrigerators fall into these common ranges:
- Width: about 30 to 36 inches
- Height: about 66 to 71 inches
- Depth: about 30 to 35 inches (often deeper with handles)
- Capacity: commonly 20 to 30+ cu. ft.
How to measure your refrigerator correctly
Use a tape measure and record three numbers. We recommend measuring twice, especially if you are planning a delivery path.
- Measure width at the widest point (often the cabinet, not the doors)
- Measure height from floor to the top hinge cover area
- Measure depth from the back to the front (note whether you include handles)
- Also measure door swing clearance if the unit sits near a wall
Installation clearance guidelines (important for fit)
Your Kenmore 10654393300 needs airflow and door-swing space. The manual guidance for ventilation and wall clearance is:
| Area | Typical clearance to plan for | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Sides and top | about 1/2 inch | Helps ventilation and stable temperatures |
| Next to a fixed wall | about 2 inches minimum (varies by model) | Allows doors to swing open |
| Back (with ice maker) | extra space for water line | Prevents kinked tubing and leaks |
Why it matters
Correct dimensions prevent delivery problems, ensure proper ventilation for the sealed system, and help avoid door interference that can damage hinges, door cams, or gaskets over time.

Where is the model number on a Kenmore side by side refrigerator?
On Kenmore model 10654393300 side-by-side refrigerators, we find the model and serial number label on the inside wall of the refrigerator (fresh food) compartment.

Quick places to check first
- Inside the refrigerator compartment on the left or right interior wall
- Near the crisper drawers area (still on the interior wall)
- Along the side wall behind shelves (you may need to slide a shelf forward)
- On a label that also shows the serial number and purchase record fields
How to use the label once you find it
When you locate the sticker, record the information exactly as shown.
| What you need | What it’s used for | Example for this unit |
|---|---|---|
| Model number | Matching parts and diagrams | 10654393300 |
| Serial number | Identifying production details | Varies by unit |
| Purchase date (if recorded) | Warranty paperwork and service history | Your date |
Why it matters
Using the exact model number helps us match the correct Kenmore refrigerator parts (like an ice maker, water valve, door bin, or defrost components) to your specific configuration so you do not end up with a similar-looking part that does not fit.
Helpful tip for parts ordering
Once you have the model number, you can order parts from the parts list for this model, or search by model number on Sears PartsDirect. For example, common fit-check items for this refrigerator include the refrigerator ice maker WPW10190961 and the refrigerator water valve W10822681.

Why is there water leaking from the bottom in my Kenmore refrigerator?
Water leaking from the bottom of your Kenmore 10654393300 side-by-side refrigerator is typically caused by a clogged or frozen defrost drain, or a water supply problem (kinked line, loose fitting, or a filter or valve issue) that lets water drip into the base.
Quick checks that pinpoint the source
- Ice sheet or standing water on the freezer floor: defrost drain is frozen or clogged.
- Leak happens after using the dispenser or ice maker: water system is involved.
- Puddle near the back where the water line connects: supply line or inlet valve issue.
- Dripping right after a filter change: air in the lines; flushing helps.
- Heavy condensation inside: door not sealing or doors opened often.
Defrost drain vs. water system: what to do next
| Symptom | Most likely cause | Next step |
|---|---|---|
| Water under crisper or freezer floor icing | Defrost drain clogged/frozen | Thaw and flush the drain to the drain pan |
| Drips at dispenser area | Air in lines or filter seating | Flush water, reseat filter, clear ice in chute |
| Puddle at back/bottom | Kinked line, loose fitting, or valve seep | Straighten line, tighten fittings, inspect valve |
Steps that fix most “bottom leak” problems
- Unplug the refrigerator and place towels under the front.
- If you see ice on the freezer floor, melt it with warm water.
- Flush the defrost drain with warm water until it flows freely.
- Check the home shutoff valve is fully open and the supply line is not kinked.
- If the leak tracks to the water system, inspect the inlet valve and tubing for slow seeping.
Parts that commonly relate to water-system leaks
- Refrigerator water valve W10822681 (controls water flow to dispenser and ice maker)
- Refrigerator water tube 8201597 (can crack, loosen, or misroute water)
Why it matters
Water at the bottom can refreeze, block airflow, and cause repeat puddles. Restoring proper defrost drain flow or stopping a slow water-system seep prevents ongoing ice buildup and floor damage.
For model-specific troubleshooting notes, use the owner's manual. To order parts by model number, use the parts list for 10654393300 or search on Sears PartsDirect.
