Yep, correct. I'm a Whirlpool child. My dad worked for the 1900 Corporation, renamed the company Whirlpool in 1949 after he returned from WW2. I was born in Benton Harbor and knew all the plants by heart going there very often with my Dad. My dad retired after 47 years with the company. I still have employee benefits with them and also with the Kenmore appliances made by Whirlpool. If say about 50 to 75 percent, maybe more, are all assembled on the same line as Whirlpool...
