Expensive disposal
Would Not RecommendThis product was provided by the plumber, who was unethical by replacing a perfectly fine working disposal with another working disposal.

Insinkrator leaked
Would Not RecommendHad to replace previous insinkrator because it leaked!! Bottom seam rusted thru after only 4-5 yrs. Easiest replacement was to install another insinkrator!! Went from 1/2 hp to 1/3hp. mh

Badger 1
Would RecommendExisting badger1 disposal went bad after 17 years. Replaced with this new badger 1. Install went well until the final tightening segment. Upon closer inspection of new model I found two stops on new flange not clearly identified on instructions that required increasing the upward pressure on the unit against the rubber washer to be able to fully tighten the flange to complete the install. After that, the unit operates as it should with no leaks.

Good garbage disposal
Would RecommendI've had several of these disposals and they are very good. They tend to last about 7 years. They are easy to install, especially if you are replacing the same model.

3rd one in 5 years
Would RecommendI keep replacing with the same brand and model because it is easy to do it that way. This is the 3rd one in 5 years. The last one only lasted about a year. We don't even use it that much. Anyway, if it wasn't easy to install, I would change brands.

Easy installation
Would RecommendI appreciate that the design of the disposal has not changed or been altered from older model years. An easy install because the current design is the same as models 10 years older.

Works great
Would RecommendAfter 17 years of usage, my old In-Sink-Erator started leaking. I had it replaced with a new In-Sink-Erator which works great. I think the new one probably runs a little more quieter. This has always been, and still is, the best product on the market.
