We bought this used in 2011 for $15K with 20K. Now at just over 100K, I must say it's been a great, reliable car. Other than occasional battery death every 2-3yrs, TPMS light on/off, all I had to do was put synthetic oil every 15000 mi and do some minor repairs myself. Replacement parts are available cheap, so this was a fun car to do work on myself. Stop paying those grease monkeys $$$ - YouTube has it all! One surprising part that failed recently was a front axle, which cost me about $500 parts+labor. Other than that, just make sure to tighten some screws yourself once in awhile (e.g. door parts), and you're good to go! We're keeping this car until it will die. If we still need a 7-passenger car then, I'll probably spring for a used Telluride. My impression of Kia = Quality!

Our family has been very happy with our van. We have been surprised at the quality and reliability of he vehicle. It handles very well and has fabulous acceleration. We opted for the power package with power sliding doors and back up assist. The van is an excellent value for the money.

Currently have 2500 miles and not one complaint. Drives better than our previous 2003 Odessey and 10K less. KIA/Hyundai is challenging overpriced Hondas and Toyota who are living on undeserved reputations and ripoff dealers. This is not the KIA of 5/10 years ago. Don't be afraid to buy. She's a little thirty with that powerful engine and all the room, but if want great mileage, buy a small Mazda 5 or something similar.
not as expected

We rode in 2 Sedonas EX that provided great ride over bumps, etc. However, due to color etc. we bought a different color Sedona EX and find the ride over cracks in the road etc. very uncomfortable. Rides well on smooth roads, but otherwise, like an old truck. Very disappointed in the quality of ride.
Great van with little problems

I bought this van in 4/10 as a new 09 and got a great deal. Ride quality is nice, the engine is smooth, quiet, and powerful, and the interior is well though out with the exception of the armrests, which are mounted too low on the seats. So far its only got 1600 miles on it, as we mainly use it for family outings and not day to day driving. In that time its been back to the dealer twice because the check engine light came two different times and the battery died once. Kia roadside assistance picked it up when the battery died, and both of the check engine lights turned out to be sensor problems. Hopefully all that is sorted out. I love the van, but not the hassle its been so far.
