As someone mentioned and I have to agree Whirlpool has positioned itself in the marketplace that is does not need to rely on Sears anymore. Rumor has it Whirlpool owns a good stake in Lowe's and other retailers.
Lucky-Gold Star (LG) as it used to be known in this country and the Sears issue...

Thanks for the information it can be very confusing but maybe Sears wants it that way? I guess all this will end when TL's are no longer being sold at Sears.
Beautiful machine! Great Save!
Sears models had so much more style than RCA Whirlpool machines of the same era. Back then did they still come from the same plant? same designers?
Leave it to Beaver in later episodes after they moved to the new house they had a GE like this don't know the exact year maybe 60? Wonder what color it was since all episodes were b&w?
Great cabinet design, were they still labeled Combinations during this period?

Whirlpool BOL's are decent products; sometimes less is more!
Whirlpool's current retail family tree:
Admiral-Home Depot only, aka:
Inglis- Best Buy Only, aka:
Roper- Lowes & Comm Sales, aka:
Estate- Lowes & Comm Sales.
All Whirlpool U.S. family brands TL's are still made in U.S.(except for that World Washer, apt size thing, which was made in Mexico but was moved to Brazil.
All Whirlpool family brands front loader washers & SOME matching dryers come from various countries outside the U.S.
Only plans for...
My only hope that if they have problems with these LG machines, the general public does not associate it with Whirlpool.
The general public seems to assume everything Kenmore is made by Whirlpool!
Most people do not understand Sears vendor coding:
A Whirlpool made Kenmore Laundry product...
I would do Whirlpool product only, please refer to link, Maytag sister has more options for not much more. Your choice of gas or electric models!
I had a ThinTwin 27 for 18 years (back when dryer door was glass) and it was NEVER serviced till the washer motor burnt out, serious workhorse here...
Looks like it was major fun! All EQUIPMENT THERE LOOKS GOOD TO ME!
Pardon me, but I cannot keep my eyes off that Aqua 70 Series Kenmore Set! I wish Ladys would have had lit controls like those, those little lit ovals make those machines stand out in the crowd.
Common laundry rooms in many apartments allow people to bring and used their own laundry equipment, yet other residents tend to use their neighbors hence the lock to keep neighbors from using their equipment.
E. J. Korvette Question...
I remember them as a child as a discount type store like others mentioned above but at one time wasn't E.J. Korvette an upscale New York store?
On several movie credits I have seen them listed with Bergdorf's, Lord & Taylor, and other upscale stores of that time...
This may already have been posted but has anyone noticed that the 2010 Kenmores (front loaders) are all made by LG now (with new Kenmore logo) none are made by Whirlpool for the 2010 model year.
All (Whirlpool made) Kenmore front load machines are already on clearance, rumor has it Whirlpool...
Thank you for the information, it works good but I have always been gentle with it because I am afraid I will crack the body or the stand because that plastic doesn't look very sturdy.
Is my Sunbeam Trash?
I have what looks like chrome but I think it is plastic with a light under the bottom that shines down into the bowls, and it has like a weird dark brown color soft padded handle. It is bigger in size than the regular Sunbeam stand mixers.
It reads some type of power burst...
