While walking through town and doing a bit of windowshopping at a used appliance shop I saw a frontloader that I hadn't seen before. Much to my surprise there was a Kenmore label on this machine. It's hard to tell from the picture, but the label on the detergent drawer is definitely a Kenmore label. This one is much newer than the machine PeterH770 has. I bet this one is made in Italy too. Strange though it appears here, after all Kenmore is a Sears label and we don't have Sears overhere.

With value-added tax structure in some countries in Europe, it might make sense to take it over there. My mother's family came to visit from Greece and bought a German washing machine from here to ship back. Crossing the Atlantic TWICE (the machine that is) it was STILL cost-effective for them. IIRC internatinal visitors living here do well in the cash economy in this country. They effectively don't pay income taxes, because those taxes (in this country) are not built into the price of goods as they are in parts of Europe. |
