Q: QuestionDoes this dishwasher come with a power cord; I.e can it be plugged in?

Asked 1 month ago by Cheyenne.

• A:Answer Great, OP here. I ordered it based on the responses that it could be plugged in. Now, it’s arriving today, and you’re telling me the power cord is not included, and that I have to order a separate kit (an additional expense) and rewire it!! So, not only will I not get an operational dishwasher today, but I have to purchase more to make it operational and install it myself?
