Lowes or Best Buy for delivery and installation of dishwasher
 

Lowes and Best Buy have the dishwasher we want for about the same
price. We do not want to install the dishwasher ourselves.

Which would be better, Lowes or Best Buy, for the delivery and
change out installation of a dishwasher? Thank you in advance for
all replies.

No experience with Lowes for appliances. Within the last 5 years, have
had a fridge and a washer delivered and installed by Best Buy. Things
went smoothly both times.

Of course, with a fridge and a washer, installation consists of plug
it in and connect the water - a little more complicated installing a
dishwasher, although the basic concept is the same.

Rather than have them haul off the old appliances, I take them to
Goodwill or Deseret and donate them, get a little bit back at tax
time. The Best Buy delivery guys even helped me load the old fridge on
my pickup.

Neither. You may be amazed that your local dealer can now be competitive on
price and be superior on service. They belong to buying co-ops and can sell
at the same price as the big box stores. The local guy usually has superior
service.

When my freezer died I had one in an hour. When I bought a new washer, it
was three hours, my DW did take a day to have installed. At least give them
a try.

mostly depends on the local store and who they use for delivery & setup.

I agree. I bought a new fridge, washer and dryer from a local family
owned business. They were just as competitive as HD, but their price
included delivery and installation, so they were actually cheaper.
They were also far more knowledgable about the appliances. Also, they
were great about replacing the refrigerator with a different model,
because of problems we were having with it shortly after they
installed it.

There is a local dealer that we have used in the past but their web
site does not list Whirlpool in the brands that they sell and we
have decided to get the Whirlpool DU1055XTSQ. I looked in the phone
book and all I found were repair businesses and one that seems to
sell only Maytag.

Do you know of a good dealer near Gardena CA (near the intersection
of the 110 and 91 freeways) that sells Whirlpool dishwashers?

They were all gourmands!

Why not just call and ask? Often dealers work with certain brands (that
help pay the advertsing), but have access to most any brand. Since you
already know exactly what you want, he may be able to offer you an even
better price since he has little effort to make the sale. It will only take
a minute to find out.

Amen!

If you are DIY, then use the "big box" store. They still will haul away
the old machine (you have to do the disconnect) and place the new machine in
the kitchen.

If you have an "installation" it's often by sub-contractors who only answer
to the "big box" store. The pure delivery guys (both Lowe's and Best Buy)
are (around here, at least) employees. In the case of a clotheswasher,
they went ahead and "installed" it was nice of them because I didn't pay
extra for it.

A dishwasher install can get complicated and it's better to have someone who
can replace a drain pipe, etc, if needed.

The local appliance store had no issue with hauling away the old
appliance. And the nice part is they are very easy to work with and
dependable. I asked if they could call my cell about a half hour before
they would be there so I could meet them. They gave me an approximate
time and then the guy called when he was on his way. That way I didn't
have to waste the day waiting for the big box store delivery on "Wednesday".
