We always bought our appliances there, the last being a stackable washer/dryer set in 2020…..but those were the first non-Kenmore items as we knew a repair may be looking for a warranty! Sad really, the older stuff was very well made, 2 fridges lasted over 20 years each…..will miss the opportunity to turn in old Craftsman tools for new!

In the mid 90s we had an art show (invitational) in the appliance area (The Refrigerator Magnet Show) which was a trip b/c there were all these artiste types mixing with the regular customers of the Midtown Sears. After Walmart came along, I began to realize how much I missed Sears. I went to Walmart to get a battery and they said it would be three hours so I left and went to Sears and it took 15 minutes.
