Terrible!

I've gone through 2 of these in almost 8 years! We've lived in our house for 7 1/2 years. The first one was installed by the builder and lasted about 3 years until the motor died. I replaced with the same model because it was the easiest option to reinstall. This one lasted until last week when the blades jammed and sheared off the center bolt they spin around! We're not putting bones or dense foods down there. Of course the warranty on this model is only 2 years. They want you to have to ...

Easily installed

Would Recommend

It was easy to install. It was my first time installing a garbage disposal. The rubber gasket was a little difficult but I did it. It recently froze up but I hit the reset button on the side and it's working again. Thanks

We'll see

This will be my 3rd one. First one lasted 15 years. 2nd one lasted 15 months! I didn't want to change the plumbing so bought it again. If this one only last a year or 2 it will be time to try another brand.

Seized twice after very light use within 1st year

Would Not Recommend

Had this installed in our new home with septic system. Very light use perhaps once every couple of weeks for 2-3 people. When it runs its seems efficient and quiet, however it has frozen up twice within the past year. First time we couldn’t get the motor to turn using recommended methods and reviewed some YouTube videos. Hired a plumber who was surprised to learn there isn’t way to try to manually turn it (like other disposals) by using a hex wrench. Plumber ended up taking the unit apart t...

Reliable/dependable

We replaced the 28 year old GFC525F, which finally gave out with a new GFC525N. It worked great all those years and we know the replacement will be going long after we are gone!
