Costco dishwashers

Looking to get a dishwasher. Can I make the purchase, and set up install/delivery, inside the store as opposed to Costco.com? I have a tax exempt and Costco.com does not do that.

Called Costco about our tv that has got some weird horizontal lines on it. They’re coming Monday to fix it, and if they can’t we will get a new tv.
Then I folded 3 loads of laundry.
Then I loaded and ran the dishwasher.
Then I remembered to eat lunch!
Today was a good day.
(Now hopefully my pharmacy’s order of Vyvanse came.. because my doctor increased my dose to split throughout the day and I’m eager to see how it could help me with my kids bedtime since my meds are usually long gone by then.)

House built in 2006 has external air gap for dishwasher. Costco delivery said no to install saying external air gap is not up to code (WA state, Snohomish county), but all houses in community have them. 2 year ago did inspection while buying house and inspector did not say anything about it. Is it recommended to get over-sink air gap rather than external one?

I’ll preface this by saying I love Costco and go there at least once every other week. It’s probably my favorite store. Aside from regular consumer goods, I’ve bought vacations, tires, custom blinds through them. Their customer service is great and I think they have a very customer-centric focus that makes doing business there a pleasure, so I was skeptical when I read some horrid experiences with appliance purchases through them and I took a plunge and ordered a new dishwasher.
Our dishwasher crapped out 2 weeks ago, and since we have an infant child churning through bottles of formula, doing dishes the manual way have been…taxing on our household in conjunction with the other projects I’ve got going on. I immediately hopped on Costco and was pleasantly surprised to see they include haul away of old appliances and installation of the new one in the price (score!) so I ordered a new dishwasher and it asked me when I wanted it installed via a calendar option. I chose the soonest date, about a week out on may 22nd. Not too bad.
May 22nd rolls around and I have yet to hear from the installedelivery company. I gave them a ring and it turns out they aren’t installing on the 22nd because they hadn’t received the dishwasher yet when the time came to schedule. So they are planning on coming out the 30th. I informed them that was a little further out than I liked and the lady on the phone said “no problem, let’s see…we can install it on the 25th.” It’s a few more days, but I accepted. Then the next day I get a call confirming my delivery window on the 25th and I’m getting excited to have a functional dishwasher again.
Today (the 25th) I get another call. They let me know they still don’t have the dishwasher - it’s on backorder - and don’t expect it till the 30th. Furthermore, they don’t have any appts to install until 6/2, and since I happen to be unavailable that day, they can’t install until 6/6. WTAF?!
Now I’m pissed, and I’m not going to wait two more weeks for a dishwasher. The guy on the phone was apologetic and said these things happen in logistics. I’m empathetic that delays can happen…but you know what, I’m not mad about the delay occurring. Costco is doing a bad job of managing customer expectations: if it’s not even available to the logistics company on the date they allowed me to pick for installation, and they clearly know it’s on backorder, then they should have made that clear to me. I wouldn’t have ordered from them had I known this information. I went with them because it seemed easy and convenient, but it was not in fact convenient at all.
I guess I’m just disappointed that an otherwise stellar company I enjoy doing business with has this smudge on their reputation and don’t seem too keen to fix the issue. If you browse any home appliances on their website, it’s hard to determine how good they actually are as a product because they have so many negative reviews about the procurement and delivery process. Logistics issues happen, but Costco could do a MUCH better job of managing their customer expectations and define an SLA that is more realistic for themselves to meet. I just don’t get why they don’t seem interested in solving this problem. They’ve certainly lost any future appliance business from me, as I wouldn’t even consider them unless I had a few months I could live without an appliance.

Hi, please can you give me some ideas on what to do next?
My 8 month old Costco dishwasher just leaked everywhere.... kitchen, through subfloor, into basement. Is a substantial amount of water (probably everything from the 3 hours of cycle). I am so concerned about the floors (wood), subfloor, and mold.
I am not able to organize my thoughts well right now... what would you suggest? thank you

I am 35 year old male. Didnt have my first job until age 30. I have autism, BPD, ADHD, learning disability and anxiety/PTSD. I tried getting SSI before I got my first job but was denied. Lawyer dropped my case because I had to work to avoid homelessness.
After a few years was fired from Costco. I have been fired or quit from several other jobs the past 7 months. I have relied on a housing agency to help pay rent. I am getting vocational rehab to pay for my final year of school but I had to cut down to 1 class at a time have 8 classes left. Ive gone though a deep depression and I am at the point in my life where I just cannot work that much anymore just extreme burnout. Thoughts of hopelessness but no plans to kill myself I want to state. I am on psych meds and am in treatment with a provider at my clinic and a therapist. I just got my food stamps and am getting help to cover rent this month.
But after getting fired from Costco (attendance) and Whole Foods (behavior) and I quit Kroger (because of getting sent home because customer complaint) and quit Chipotle because I couldn't handle being put on dishwasher and getting wet. I am currently at another retail place and Starbucks both on LOA for a shoulder injury not due back for a couple more weeks.
I can't handle working with customers. I can't handle working 40 hours a week anymore. I dont qualify for anything better paying than a job where I have to work 40 hours a week to live paycheck to paycheck.
What should I do? I have nobody to stay with. I live by myself. I dont mind working a couple days a week but 4 or 5 just kills me. I cant do it anymore.

I recently ordered a dishwasher from costco.com as they had a great sale going on for a KitchenAid dishwasher.
The dishwasher was delivered and installed on day stated. However, it was not working and no water went into the dishwasher. The installer suggested that it's probably not getting enough water pressure because my dishwasher stop valve was old so I would need to call a plumber. I agreed to call plumber and got those replaced.
Plumber came and replaced stop valve and said there was no problems with pressure. We checked the dishwasher and it still didn't work. So I call Costco and they said they can send someone out to check the install but earliest is one week out. I said okay.
Day before install check, the person coming out texts me to confirm time. I confirmed and said I look forward to getting my dishwasher fixed. Person then mentioned he doesn't do dishwashers at all.
I'm afraid this is going to keep happening. I'm afraid they're going to schedule another date and installer won't be doing dishwashers again. I can keep calling Costco but is there a way to escalate?
Thanks for your help! Love Costco but this delivery experience has sent me in a spiral!

Hi all,
I recently bought a place that came with appliances that are about 15 - 20 years old. I've wanted to do some updates but 2 of the items (washedryer and dishwasher) are now leaking. I do have a home warranty; however, I figured this could be a good start towards some of the upgrades I'd like to do.
My question is a bit broad, but I'm mainly looking for any gotchas or things to consider before purchasing. Are there any pre-requisites and/or tasks I should do to identify what will/won't work with my setup? For example, when I was doing some research on appliances, I came across a generic video from LG for a washedryer that talked about working with a sales rep (before your purchase) to identify measurements and if you need gas or electric.
I'm planning to buy from Best Buy/Costco/etc. and I'm not sure they'll have the same services/offerings to assist with your purchase, so I'm wanting to make sure I consider all aspects before purchasing anything.
Additionally, something I'm a bit concerned about - the closet with my stacked washedryer has some space on both sides, but I'm not sure there's enough space for it to be pushed to the side & have someone comfortably be able to slide by. Will this create any issues for removal and/or installation?
Any insight/suggestions/assistance is greatly appreciated, thank you so much!

hi everyone, the installation was last Sat. The install guy said my air gap had issue and was leaking, and he said a plumber should be called to fix it.
Then he tightened it and it no longer leaked as he said.
Now he left and we noticed it started to leak again on the same night. I called costco today and they said they would send someone to fix it.
My question is, will they fix it or they may refuse to fix it, citing it is air gap and a plumber should fix it? It was not leaking at all with my old dishwasher!

My concern is a delicate edge, anything prone to chipping is less favorable. They won’t be throwing them around or end up in dishwashers but they will enviably be used to scoop up veggies using the blade edge or take some light rock chopping.

I’m going to be needing to replace my fridge soon and am going to buy a stove/oven and dishwasher to match. Does Costco typically do sales on these appliances around Memorial Day like other retailers do? Also, do they install these for you?

Looking at purchasing a dishwasher soon through costco.
Currently, the brand/models I'm looking at are a couple hundred dollars more than HD/Lowes/etc.
I know Costco doesn't price match, but does anyone have any idea if/when they update prices and/or put sales on?
TIA!

I know this seems to be a common problem that I thought I was prepared for but I guess not!
I ordered a dishwasher and the delivery date was 4/25. Got a text a couple days after I ordered stating the soonest they could do was 5/29. Not only was that way too late for me, but we are going to be out of town that week. So I did some research and saw some people were able to get the dishwasher delivered, hire their own installer, and get reimbursed. So while I was frustrated, I chatted with customer service (so I would have it in writing) to see if I could keep my 4/25 delivery date and schedule my own installer. They had a supervisor confirm that I could do this and said they put it in my file. I asked again to make sure that my dishwasher was still scheduled for delivery on 4/25. They said yes, I would get a call in the evening on 4/24 with a 2 hr window. Got an email on 4/21 with tracking saying it was set to be delivered on 4/24. I thought great. Last night (4/24) got no call so after taking my kids to school this morning I called them. They then inform me that the soonest they can deliveinstall is 5/29 and that they have record of me getting a text with that info! So obviously I tell them the story and the person I’m talking to has no clue and tells me to wait for a call from their resolutions department. So I hang up and start up a chat again. Chat person tells me that my dishwasher was never going to be delivered and was always supposed to be picked up by the installer on 5/29. But that they see I got permission to use my own installer and get reimbursed. They apologize that I was given inaccurate information once I’m assuming they pulled up my previous chat. So they call the location of the dishwasher (which is in my city already) and find they can get them to deliver it on 4/29 (a Saturday). They will call me sometime between 7-10 the night before to give me a 2 hr window. But now I’m not even very hopeful that they are going to deliver it by then based on others experiences I’ve read on here.
When I asked about further compensation for having to take off work for no reason now and for having to cancel plans for Saturday as well as take time off to get it installed on Monday (hopefully) and for having to take the time to chat with them again to get reimbursement, they told me they cannot offer me compensation for lost time.
We had a great experience 2 years ago with a washing machine which is why we went with Costco again vs anywhere else. But this has been such an awful experience! I definitely would not recommend ordering any appliances that cannot be picked up in store. Had I know it was going to be such an issue I would have ordered elsewhere.

Last Friday I started writing down all the chores and childcare I do. I’ll note that this is only a list of what I do, and does not include what other household members do, which is substantive. Just a note of what my workload is. I’ll also note that I work and most of these days included working about 6 hours during the day, additional work after kid bedtime, and I’m president of the PTA and organizing end of year events and fundraisers right now, and none of that is reflected. Third, my standard of cleanliness is not particularly high. If my house isn’t a pigsty I’m happy.

I ordered a dishwasher about a month ago and scheduled delivery/installation for today 4/21. I received a call on 4/20 confirming delivery and they told me they would call me later in the day to schedule a time for delivery. No call ever came. I called the company back this morning to ask what hours I need to be available, and they said that their truck is broken down and it has to be delivered tomorrow. I planned on taking a couple hours off of work for the delivery, but with no call on 4/20 to schedule a time frame I had to take the full day off. Now I'm missing work and the dishwasher isn't coming today. I'm on hold with Costco customer service right now, but what does Costco usually do in situations like this to make it right?
