Whirlpool makes Kitchen Aid as well as many Kenmore products per Sears'
specifications. I don't think the sales person knew what he was talking
about or had some personal interest in selling you another model.

I would recommend avoiding the white-on-white top as it is a bitch to keep
clean. While you are at it, I would also consider an convection oven. It
will perform better than a conventional oven. Meat will cook faster and
remain more moist and baked goods will be more evenly baked without shifting
pans. If you have access to a showroom with high-end appliances, you will
see that most of expensive ovens have hidden elements. If it was a bad
idea, people wouldn't pay extra for it.
