Many times, a box store like Lowes, or Home Depot will get a model number appliance that is exclusive to them. That way, if someone is trying to price shop with the local guy, they can't match exact model numbers. Lowes might say "well that's a different model than ours, that's why the price difference", when in fact, it's practically the same refrigerator, stove, etc.
