so "basic dishwasher installation" means replacing an exsisting dishwasher or is that putting in a new dishwasher (into a kitchen that has never had a dishwasher)?

I recently got this.....They came out, took a look and told me due to electrical running thru bottom of my existing "open bottom" dishwasher, they would be unable to install my new bosch dishwasher with the enclosed bottom. So....I called an electrician, he moved the power and I called them back. They came out....took a look and said great...$375 to install a new water hammer arrestor....required by city code since 2015, not included with the basic install.....I said just leave the dang thing and go. I installed it myself in a few hours after watching a youtube video.
Sadly Lowes is not installing in my area due to Coronavirus
During March end, Best Buy stopped installation services. At that time, Lowes did installation through third-party installers. I did not buy Bosch and I paid for installation.
Did you call Lowes Installation (1-866-678-2761) prior to purchase ? They might have stopped installation.
Got my Bosch 800 series installed by 3rd party contractor, he took my old unit out ($30 extra) and put the new one in. No issues at all and it's free via rebate.

I mean, that's not entirely their fault. Did you install the hammer arrestor?

How did you get the rebate by going through a 3rd party and not the Lowe's basic install during checkout (sku 105429, per the promo)?
[Edit] I think I misunderstood. Does this mean it was a 3rd party contractor hired by Lowe's instead of Lowe's doing it themselves?
Parents tried to get in on the free install since they had a Kitchenaid before. I can't remember exactly what stopped the installation but it was extremely minor. Overall, a bad experience. They hired a separate installer.

If your house is not plumbed for a dishwasher they will not do it.

Only difference i could find is -2db and a better top tray
Extended warranty and install was also cheaper in store (155$ 5yr extended warranty, $160 install/haul away).
