The 2-in-1 washer/dryer arrived on Thursday. I waited at the condo to pick up the delivery. They deliver only in front of the door and don't go up the stairs, but I talked the delivery guy into bringing the box up one floor into my apartment by telling him that I will pay extra. He rolled the box over to take it up the stairs. The box had a lot of padding in it, so it was OK to do so.
As for the kitchen, aside from the electrical and plumbing, the vent guy did some work this week. He removed the old vent that was hidden in the wall. Next week, he will install the new one.
Because the vent that has to run along the ceiling from the wall to the hood, there is a problem now with the kitchen cabinets. The ones I am ordering are standard cabinets, not custom. We have to find a way to fit the vent into the cabinets. The contractor said they usually build a custom box that sits inside the cabinet and it houses the vent in it. I'm going to go this afternoon to the cabinet place and ask her if it's possible to have anything like that. If not, I will have to come up with a creative solution. Maybe I will ask the contractor to modify the cabinets since there is no time to order other cabinets. Custom cabinets usually have a lead time of 4 weeks, which is too long at this point.
Here are some pictures of the progress in the bathroom.
Here are some new pictures of the kitchen.
