no hooking up the plumbing is the hardest...if you got a in-sink garbage disposal its petty ea sly there is a knock out on the side of it made just for the dishwasher drain. make sure you water comes from the house hot water side. electrical is easy if you can't do that then you shouldn't be installing it on your own

u need to hook up the small drain line to the dishwasher and hook up the water supply first. then run the two thru the cabinet to under the kitchen sink. u should have an eletric plug that u need to connect to the wires on the dishwasher located at the bootom right of the washer plug the eletric in and push the washer into place. screw two srews into the two brackets at the top of the washer to the counter top. then hook up the drain to the drain under the sink and hook up the water as well. turn it on and start washin... good luck

It depends. You have to get the hot water to it, usually the dishwasher is adjacent to the sink which solves the problem of where the hot water comes from and also where it drains. You obviously need some power from somewhere. SO.. you need to find a plumber and electrician or do it yourself.

no not realy
you have to run two copper lines (hot and cold) and a waste line from under the sink to the dish washer as long as the dishwasher is next to the sink it will be very easy
check out www.DYI.com-- do it yourself
it comes with directions if you have any plumbing skills at all it it fairly simple

MAKE SURE YOUR DISH WASHER WILL FIT IN THE COUNTER AREA IF THAT IS THE KIND YOU ARE BUYING, AND MAKE SURE YOUR HOSE AND GASKETS ARE IN GOOD CONDITION AND PLACED RIGHT. tIGHTEN ALL CONNECTIONS AS TIGJHT AS POSSIBLE WITHOUT STRIPPING OUT A CONNECTOR. PLUG UP TO THE APPROPRIATE VOLTAGE REQUIRED BY THE DISH WASHER LABEL,TURN THE BREAKER ON,TURN ON THE WATER SLOWLY TO MAKE SURE YOU DO NOT HAVE A LEAK IN YOUR SYSTEM PRIOR TO OPENING WATER VALVE FULL OPEN. THE BIGGEST OBSTACLE IS GETTING IT IN THE HOLE IS IS GOING IN AND FITTING IT FLUSH WITH COUNTER SURROUNDING IT. GOOD LUCK!

No, it's pretty easy if you have good instructions. Just make sure it is on a level surface, or you will have a mess the first time you turn it on. Good Luck!
