ABSOLUTELY, POSITIVELY STAY AS FAR AWAY AS YOU CAN FROM HOME DEPOT'S KITCHEN INSTALLATION DEPT!!!!!!!
The accounting firm I used to work for audit's them, and I heard HORROR stories from one of the managers on the account at one training session I went to. I've talked to other who've used them, and they had the same bad experience. Problem number one, i think, is that they outsource the actual labor/installation, and not necessarily reputable/reliable ones.
I don't know if Lowe's does the same or if theirs is more reliable. I've only ever heard bad things about HD.
I know IKEA has cool kitchen stuff, and they say they do installation, but I have no idea how good their service is either. We ripped out stuff from the 70's and put in IKEA counters and such in the house we lived in before this one, and I really liked them and they seemed very durable, but my husband did the installation himself. So I don't know if they do a good job of installation or not, sorry.
I probably didn't help you much at all, sorry. But seriously, you will only regret going with HD, so please JUST SAY NO!!!
