Appliance update!

Because I'm sure you've all been waiting with bated breath, here are pictures of the new dishwasher and microwave:




- hm, embedded image isn't working, but you should be able to see it here.

The installation went remarkably smoothly -- the guys who came for the dishwasher were quick and efficient, and then they helped R get the microwave in place, which was really helpful. I'm sure he could have done it on his own, but it was much, much easier with more people around, especially someone who was able to lift a 70-pound microwave as if it were nothing (I swear I saw him toss it in the air a little bit as he was carrying it across the kitchen).

We haven't really used either appliance yet, but the various test cycles seemed to work and I'm looking forward to trying them out. The dishwasher, especially -- we selected this particular model because it's reported to be quiet, and it will be nice to be able to do things like watch TV and have a normal conversation when it's running.

New appliances are a happy thing...congrats!

I am actually following your appliance reports with interest, since my dishwasher is evil (the rack always comes off the rails, and it doesn't actually clean dishes so much as autoclave them), and I really need to replace the wretched thing.

Is it weird that I'm jealous of your appliances?
