I put it in myself. Took around 45 minutes including 2 bathroom breaks. Plastic pipe is a breeze. $10 parts including glue. Can't imagine why they would charge $300 to install one UNLESS ELECTRIC OUTLET IS NEEDED so you'd have to pay electrician. We had outlet very close. Yea, I could live without it but I chose not to. Since I don't smoke or drink I figure all the money I save made it affordable and my wife happy.
Wife happy is worth any cost
