Whirlpool and Matsushita were different companies. Whirlpool made Kenmore vacuums from 1958 through 1989. They sold the Kentucky manufacturing facility to Panasonic, mostly due to the fact they had their hands slapped by Sears over offering Whirlpool branded cleaners in 1984 - 1988. They were extremely similar to Sears cleaners, and Sears did NOT like it. While both Whirlpool and Panasonic were suppliers under the 116. manufacturing number, they were in fact separate companies. Matsushita had nothing to do with Sears vacuums until 1989.
