RBKE953S vs RBKE963
Can someone please explain the difference between RBKE953S (sold at costco) vs RBKE963 sold elsewhere. Comparing the specs they looks exactly the same. Thanks

If it was only suffix (S) I would not have cared so much but there are other differences like 953 (Costco) vs 963 (elsewhere), AXE10000 (Costco) vs AXE11000 (elsewhere). Do you believe these differences are immaterial too?

My bad. Missed the 5 on that version. I'll have to look a little closer when I'm home and have a PC to look more
