    Jeff, do most if not all appliance manufacturers outsource to other Countries now? I believe they do, so its not just Whirlpool.

    Most are now Jake...but most haven't taken money from the US government.
    Tired of seeing Made in China, Made in Mexico, Made in Korea ( and others! ) on our appliances here.

    JMO!

    I don't know, We don't keep up with where appliances are made, we just help people fix them their-selves.
