I know what you mean Janice, we had to replace three appliances in the kitchen at the same time. Sometimes you just hate to give up the old ones, but when they cost more to fix..... On the good side, our new dishwasher is amazing. Hubby started it last night for the first time and we could hardly hear it working. Then when we used the microwave, it is so much bigger than our other one and quiet as well. The garbage disposal was not done right so we have to wait for a different one to come in to get it replaced and installed correctly. Now to get the plumber in.
