on your stacked unit....
bottom of dryer front, there should be two little plugs that have to be removed, pop those out and then there should be two Phillip screws to come out, then a slight tilt/lift and pull forward, and the unit should release from the washer.... you may want to take the leveling legs off the washer and use on the dryer, as from that configuration, the legs have been removed.... | ||

 I doubt the salesman will deliver any satisfaction. He already lied when he said they'd remove the door. Granted, it's a swinging door, which he may or may not have known, but IMO he said they'd do it, so the dealer should get the bill for door R&R.
I've had experiences with lame installers in the past. When we bought our Amana TL washer and dryer pair (SQ clones back then) we heard a crash when they unloaded the dryer off the truck. That dryer rattled from day one. We put in a call for a service tech visit and he simply advised that nowadays, "dryers are just tin," and left it at that. Since the dryer was in the garage, we didn't bother to pursue replacement.
This entire scenario is entirely unacceptable for the amount of money that was spent on your new washer, and borders on stereotypical sexism. I would give the dealer and installation team a lousy rating on Yelp, and include a narrative. | ||

MTN, yes I have been very frustrated with the outsourcing of delivery. I don't blame the installers though. They are hard workers put in bad spots. I truly hope they do not get in trouble for my complaint. | ||

well yeah the price at first is a bit steep for SQ....but it is most guaranteed the last machine you will ever have to buy....
these are very gentle on clothing....one thing I like about FLers is you can mix loads that you would never consider in a TL machine....lint is a thing of the past... and most definitely consider more hot/warm washes, just best for your machine in the long run.....I never have to clean my machine, in fact my Neptunes dont have a 'clean washer' cycle, and doesn't need it....I dont leave the doors/drawers open ever....and just add some bleach to white loads...you will never have an issue... no matter if you use your old dryer, or go for a matching one.....consider a counter top to cover both wall to wall....for one thing will prevent anything from falling behind the machines.... you can find at Lowes/HomeDepot, either butcher block or white melamine board in 4'x8' sheets.....take measurements, and they will cut it for you....the melamine also offers an iron-on edging for a clean look.... I had to cut this into two pieces to fit into the alcove(I tried for one whole piece)....but you get the idea....also grab a pack of stick on felt or rubber feet to keep the 'counter' off of the machines to prevent scuffing.... a tension shower rod above would help with hanging clothes out of the dryer, if that works for you....you have many options for that space... keep us posted on your progress.....

Thank you all for the replies! Now I am feeling timid in case someone from the store/business I am dealing with does a search and sees me here. I don't want to make waves (pun!) or burn bridges if it can be resolved amicably. | ||
