Our installers came back the 2nd day to finish as much as they could at that time. Unfortunately what we found out was that we had the wrong size pantry, so we had to order another size - which also means that we had to wait another 3+ weeks for it to come in. We also did not have our over the range microwave yet because it was out of stock all over pittsburgh, so the installer was going to come back later to do the finishing work.
So they basically were able to finish the cabinetry work that they had left (some cabinets on the wall between the kitchen & dining room) and install our gas range and dishwasher that were just delivered the day before! Since the gas line was moved, the stove worked (yay! we can cook!), but because the water wasn't hooked up, we couldn't use the dishwasher.

| Our gas stove came from Sears, and has 5 burners (one extra in the middle) - something I hadn't seen before :) |

| Our dishwasher also came from Sears, which we found & decided on through Consumer Reports |
One of the last things the installers did before they left for the day was put on our cabinet hardware. I had to come home over my lunch break because they told me that there were different "placements" of the handles and I had to decide where to put them. I'm thinking, "Can it really be that difficult?" And it did seem kind of silly, but I guess they didn't want to be liable for me not liking it when they were done. Below are the doors with the handles installed, and the glass door put on the corner cabinet.
Now it was time to wait and wait and wait until our pantry came in, and because of that and the cabinets over the bar area not being quite how we wanted them, we couldn't have the countertop people come yet. So the kitchen got put on hold for a little while and we continued to eat off of paper and plastic! :)
