Default Installation issue with Home Depot

We purchased a Bosch from Home Depot with installation. When it was delivered, the installers said they could not install ( we were replacing an existing dishwasher) because there was a cabinet between the dishwasher and the sink. So instead of the $150 installation charge, we had to call a plumber and pay $400. That wasn't the only issue we had with Home Depot. There were also dents in the front panel that they told us to talk to the manufacture to get fixed instead of replacing. The dents were eventually fixed by Bosch but it was more time and frustration since a plumber had to come out twice because the plumber discovered the dents when installing. Also, we purchased a higher end Bosch so that it would be quiet. After installation of the new dishwasher, it made loud sucking noises when it drained. This happens 3-4 times a cycle and can be very startling and loud. We have to make sure to run the dishwasher with both drains covered so we don't hear the noise. Bosch repair person said it was installed correctly and not anything they could do with out more investigation (we would have to pay for person to come out). Needless to say, we have been disappointed with both Home Depot installation fiasco and Bosch not being quiet.
