Would RecommendThe Badger 1 came installed in my house when purchased new 10 years ago. It just started leaking today. I’m replacing with the Badger 5- 1/2 HP. Very easy to remove and replace. 15 minute job by myself. I didn’t even need to consult YouTube University on this one.

Doesnt last long
Would Not RecommendGot this installed with new home 20 months ago and its leaking already. Online it shows it has 2 year warranty but looks like only for units manufactured after April 2025. Bad product, wouldn't recommend.

Not worth having
Would Not RecommendI've had this in my brand new home for 2 years. It has jammed a 3 times and I have had to unlock it. I barely use it. Its locked now and there is nothing in there. I unlock it, turn it on, and sounds like a bunch of metal is in there. But there is nothing there. I've show a flashlight down to see if im missing something and there is nothing there. This disposal should not go out in 2 years with barely any use. I am disappointed. Badger 1-92A

Do not buy
Would Not RecommendPiece of garbage, motor burnt out in 2 years. No crazy uses, nothing that shouldn’t be there, terrible. Why even off 1/3 hp, that’s a cop out.
