just googled this...

News Flash: Sears is getting out of the Kenmore branded Sewing machine business after 100+ years! Sears Kenmore sewing machines have been made by Maruzen Japan (now Jaguar China) or Janome New Home in Taiwan over the last 50+ years. Janome was the last private label manufacturer to make Sears Kenmore branded sewing machines in their Taichung, Taiwan ROC Republic of China factory. The four Sears Kenmore branded sewing machines AllBrands offers are the very last models available in the USA that were manufactured by Janome in their ISO9002 factories with 10 year warranty. Unless Sears changes its position and outlook, there will no more Kenmore, only Brother and Singer brand sewing machines sold online and in their traditional sewing and vacuum cleaner departments. However, Parts for Janome made Kenmore machines will continue to be available, since Janome manufactures the same or similar models under the Janome and New Home labels. - See more at: http://www.allbrands.com/categories/....VTazlLgA.dpuf
