The showroom isn't ready yet and the Kenmore small appliances seem to have disappeared into the backrooms for now but work has been completed on the new carpet. Furthermore, they started fixing all the broken floor files and repainted the walls in the tools section as well now. They've also installed new LED lights both inside the store (notably above the old escalators), as well as on the exterior building. Goodbye dim exterior and hello cozy and lit up Sears building! 😌

Forgot to mention, they've also started repainting the merchandise pickup section and got rid of the old vending machine and sadly the payphone as well. They told me apparently it was shipped back to Hoffman Estates, no idea why lol.
