No More Kenmore?
Mrs.Moos   Intermediate CA USA Member since 11/5/02 Posts: 2344	Login to reply to this post Like this post Date: 4/14/10 1:43 PM I just went to the Sears site to look at the sewing machines since they are supposed to be made by Janome. I just wanted to see the comparison between the two brands again since I work in a sewing store. But when I went to the sewing machine page there were no Kenmores other than the mini & 3/4 size. Am i missing something here? they had oodles of Kenmores a month ago... ------ Brother ULT 2002D, Janome 6500P, Babylock Eclipse SX, Juki MO654DE, Janome Coverpro 1000CPX, Singer 15-91

Overstock.com may be our last source of Kenmores...

That's a shame they were the last place to get a fairly inexpensive machine that was of decent quality since they were made by Janome. ------ quiltingwolf.blogspot.com

I should check their inventory. ------ Pfaff 138-6 Brother PQ1500S Necchi 4795 US Blindstitch 718-9 Kenmore 16644 Janome CoverPro 1000 Singer 201-2

Now they are not on the web site. They only have the ERGO 3 19010 and the Ergo 19005. They still do have the smaller ones. It appears they are discontinuing them. Janet

Indeed. I thought I had started a false alarm on this a month or so back, only to discover that Sears.com's search functionality was simply broken. However, just now I went to Sears.com, Appliances/Sewing & Garment Care category (which bypasses search), and, wow, it's just what you say. In the category opening page, notice mention of Brother, Singer, and Janome(!), but nothing about Kenmore. I see the 3/4 Kenmore, and nothing else. Looks like it might finally be coming to an end.

No idea if the others are gone forever or not. Bummer if they are. ------ Joe in New Albany, iN
