Geez supply chain really screwed up for appliances [View all]

In NE anyway. Anyone else experiencing this?

Thought once we had the money set aside and could pick what we wanted it would be fun to redo a kitchen in the new old house we just moved into.

Online stores lie about delivery. They promise dates that are bogus - months away from when they said. Going to a big box store just as bad. Was told it would be at least a month for the dishwasher I want. And online ratings make things worse cuz everyone wants the best products. Even if an appliance is made in US - they depend on parts from abroad.

And it snowballs cuz you have to line up plumbers and electricians. As it stands now we'll have a counter cut out for a stovetop we might not get until November.
