Ratings & Reviews for InSinkErator Badger 1 Continuous feed 1/3-HP Septic Safe Non-corded Garbage Disposal

Looks great

What a great product!! We love it and it works excellent!! Thanks

Was not easy to install, had to pay repairman to install.

The disposal works, but it was not easy. was too expensive to have installed.

Long lasting!

If this one lasts as long as it’s predecessor (9 years), I’ll be VERY pleased!

Easy peazy

I’m 75 yrs young and installed (replaced) this disposal vey quickly. It was extremely easy with the quick connect system. You don’t have to be a master plumber or electrician. If you use this a lot, I would increase the horse power with the larger one. All in all, it’s good disposal. Note: if your dishwasher drains through the disposer, make sure the hose connections are tight.

works Great!

This unit came with the new house. We have had the Badger begore and will again.

The product is of high quality.

The installation went smoothly and the operation of the disposal is strong and solid! I originally purchased this model because the cutting device is made of stainless steel. When it comes to disposals, you “must” go with stainless steel. This particular make and model disposal fits the bill.

Easy to install

So far it’s working well,I installed the same model 4 year after moving into our house. went on youtube DYI, my husband is so impressed.

Easy Peasy Install

Dropped old unit and had replacement working in 15 minutes, start to finish.

Worth the investment.

I bought this unit to replace the same unit that I had for 14 years. Considering it has a one year warranty, I think the first one convinced me to get a new one of the same type.

Perfect for low use due to septic tank

We purchased the Badger 1 to replace the 23-year-old model that finally broke. We have a septic system, so utilizing a garbage disposal is for very small food orts. We hope the new one lasts as long as the first one.

This product works well

The product was purchased and installed by the builder. Ot came with the house

Sound like a metallic part is rotating in disposal

It Sounds like a metallic part is rotating in disposal. Using it anyway.

EZPZ

I installed it myself with easy to follow directions. It's been several weeks with no problems. It replaced a previous in sinkerator which lasted for years.

Reliable cost effective appliance

This disposal works well and isn't too noisy. It fit in a tight space. I am pleased with it.

Easy removal and easy install!

I was replacing an old Badger garbage disposal (20 + yrs). It was an easy process to remove the old one and install the new one. A quick and easy DIY job.

Very cheaply made and sounds tinny

I replaced the insinkerator I had with this new one. The one I had was well built and sounded strong when it ran. The new one I purchased was not well built. It was light and did not have the power of the old one. The lock ring on top would not lock into the sink so I took the ring off the old one to make it work.

Does the job

Works well. I wanted the Badger 5, but they were out of stock. No issues thus far, quiet when operating and was very easy to install (about 30 minutes).

Maybe this is a good product, but cannot get it in

Here's my story about the Lowe's and Angi collaboration for installation: Angi gaslighted me for over a week. I had a simple job of a garbage disposal installation. I bought the disposal and added on installation from Lowe's. Lowe's then forwarded my installation request to Angie. An appointment was quickly made, Unbeknownst to me it was a pyrrhic appointment. This "appointment" by "Hector" kept on being rescheduled. After the 5th reschedule I attempted to contacted the assigned contractor. The ...

So far so good

Fairly easy to install. After 2 months it is working fine. A real evaluation can only be made after a few years. My old ISE lasted 22 years of low volume usage.

It is LOUD

Just bought this brand new home, with an entire open area for Living/Dining and Kitchen. The grinding noise - even if empty- of this Insinkerator food waste disposal is so loud! Sounds like metal grinding glass. It’s brand new, installed by the builder. It does grind the food- so it works.
