"Many of These Problems Sound More Like Poor Troubleshooting Try a New Co."
All furnaces, cars, refrigerators, etc., are going to have their problems. Many of these problems I read sound more like the service person and/or company did not troubleshoot properly. I would have been livid in many of those cases also. However, any furnace if installed improperly, poorly maintained is going to have problems. For a motor or circuit board to continually fail in my opinion, something else is going on and needs to be addressed by a company that knows what they are doing.

"Do not Buy Comfortmaker it is a Stress Maker"
We bought a house that had an old unit. When it broke, we decided to get brand new one so we do not have to deal with it for years. The contractor recommended Comfortmaker to rip us off. He charged me $5,000 for whole thing and since that day we had all kind of problems with it. Fan, blower, motor, refrigerant, coil, etc. We installed this piece of sh#t in 2008. Every year I had issues with air conditioning. My wife and I fought a couple of times because of this unit. As of today summer 2013 the unit did not work (of course). I called the repairman who told me that there is an issue with it that is unrepairable or I can spend up 4,000 to fix it. I got screwed getting this unit. I advise you all if read this, do not get a Comfortmaker. I repeat, do not get a Comfortmaker. I repeat, do not get a Comfortmaker. I will let everyone I know for the rest of my life not to get this unit (garbage). I am so angry, that this is going to be a personal vendetta. I will let everyone that Comfortmaker is a horrible unit. It should be called Stress maker.

"Heat Exchanger is TERRIBLE"
I reccently replaced this furnace after changing the heat exchanger on it twice within 4 years!!! The furnace lasted just over 10 years. What a piece of junk. I replaced it with an Amana that has a lifetime warranty on the stainless steel heat exchanger. If the heat exchanger fails on the amana they give me a brand new furnace. I'm glad this nightmare is over

"Unbelievably poor quality"
It's blower only last about 1 year. I already had two blowers stop working for a little over two years. I purchased a new construction in 2010. In the winter 2011-2012, its blower died. The installer replaced the blower. I thought it was just one unlucky event. However, within less one year, the replacing blower died again yesterday. I will have installer come in today and will see what he will say and how much he will charge me.

"Won't buy Comfortmaker"
6 year old unit - serviced regularly - replaced control board on air handler 2 years ago - has again died. My hvac company even tried to get them to step up with the replacement part since we are now on the 3rd control board - they could not be bothered. Will never have another.

"I have 2, only one had a problem in 13 yrs"
I have two units, one of which had an ignitor problem that developed into no heat when the unit was about 8 years old. I replaced the ignitor myself and have not had a failure of any kind since, both units now 13 years old.

"Great product when installed by someone that cares"
I had a young man named Josh put my family in a VS 2-stage system 2 years ago and we love it. Our neighbors had another company put a different brand in -- not all that good for them. But what I found interesting is on mine after they got the unit running they adjusted blower speeds, gas pressure and even checked what they called static and the neighbors contractor did none of this but they keep having trouble. So I guess it has a lot to do with the installer

"Been great, not sure what the model number is"
I was unsure of who Comfortmaker even was when I bought. I have had no problems and only upkeep is changing the filters. The a/c is freezing, and the heat works great too. I would recommend to anyone. I was told it was much better than the Lennox it replaced, which has been the case. It keeps this 70 year old house very comfortable.

"POS in the beginning the 14 years of troublefree operation and now having problems"
In the beginning this furnace was a serious pos. In the first 4 years I had 5 issues. First it was the ignitor, then draft motor capacitor, then draft motor, then controller and finally the flame sensor failed to identify a flame because a spider crawled into a crossover tube and prevented the far burners from igniting (not a furnace design or manufacturing problem). Then the furnace ran flawlessly for 13 years. Last year the furnace blower motor failed and I replaced that. Today the furnace was blowing cold air and I went and check the computer and it was flashing a "1" flash. System Lock-out fault. Turned the power off and back on and furnace has been running fine since. Hope it's an ignitor or carbon on the flame sensor, but working fine for now.
