We are renovating over the next couple of months, so we can’t wait 6-8 months for any items. With the current chip shortage that makes the options… interesting.

BlueStar was actually one of them for ranges. That was definitely part of the upside. I'm just not sure it's worth several thousand more dollars over other options that will probably end up looking better in our new kitchen, for a variety of reasons.
On the fridge, the LG fridges appear to be doing just fine. LG apparently is one company that somehow circumvented the whole chip issue (they either make their own or they had stockpiled just in time). We have one now (it just won't fit the new kitchen, and I can convert it into a dry ager) and we like it just fine.
The dishwashers are another story. The high end German ones (like Bosch) are not going to be available anytime soon. So we're looking at Samsung models there. Never thought the guys who make great TVs would be washing my dishes too but I'm not sure we have too many other quality options there.
Then there's a bunch of other stuff like the fume hood for the range, microwave, and beverage fridge. No real supply issues with any of those right now, but I'm just bracing to be surprised by some BS at some point.

The sales guy pointed out to my wife that the oven could fit a full-size cookie tray. She was like "that's your fastball when you want us to pay almost twice as much?" It kind of went downhill from there, lol.

Have them put your current one in and order and wait for a Bosch to do a switch.
On the dishwasher I think I actually prefer a Miele. There may be less of a lead time on one of those, we're looking into it.
