This does everything it should do and is a quiet as a garbage disposal can be.

Decent quality. You’ll have to buy a new one about every 5-7 years even with fairly limited use, it’s just the nature of the appliance. It’s pretty easy to remove the old one and install the new one. Just remember to remove the knockout cap for the dishwasher if you have one.

My garbage disposal suddenly started leaking. I was able to order the exact replacement and it arrived when it was scheduled. Easy to install and working great!

Ordered it and got it the next day. Instructions were clear and it was relatively easy to install (I replaced an old garbage disposal of a different brand).Be aware that this unit does NOT include the electric cable, but I easily removed the cable from the old disposal and installed it on the new one. It does include a plastic elbow drain pipe, in case your old one can’t be used.It also has an inlet for the dishwasher drain, but it does not include the clamp to secure the dishwasher hose to the unit (no big deal since I used the existing clamp, but if you’re installing a garbage disposal for the first time, make sure to get a hose clamp).You will also need plummer putty, a flat head screwdriver and a pair of pliers. That’s it.Noise level was acceptable, quieter than my older unit.

I purchased this to replace my old 1/3 HP Insinkerator garbage disposal that had started leaking from the bottom due to a bad seal. I suspect the old unit was original with the house, so 10ish years old. I initially thought I would have to hire someone to install this, but after a bit of research, it seemed very doable! I’m a 28 year old woman and I was able to follow a YouTube tutorial and install this unit by myself with a few tools—flathead/phillips head screwdrivers, plumber’s putty and a plastic scraper (to clean up old putty). I installed the provided sink flange and rubber splash guard as well. Only took me about an hour from start to finish. Fitment was great, installation seamless, works perfect—no complaints! 5 stars.

Needed to replace my garbage disposal and just wanted to replace with the same model. I found one on Amazon for $120 but I strolled down the page and they had the same model with a Like New condition for $84 with next day delivery. I received the item and it was in perfect condition, the only thing that caused it not to get a 5 star rating was because it took 2 days to get it. I installed it and it works great. It didn't come with a new power cord which I kinda thought it would, but I saved the old power cord that was in good condition. All in all I'm real happy with saving the $40.

Exchanged my old one with this new one (same brand and size). Installed it myself. Works nicely. Delivery was fast and cost was less than the stores.

Dependable and Lasting, Easy to Install, Quiet operation - RECOMMENDEDLike clockwork - these last about 8-9 yrs before they start to rust out and drip - we are on our fourth badger 5 / 500 in 20yrs (they do come with a 5yr warranty but only once was it kind enough to die inside the warranty period and a simple phone call to the company verified the registered item and a new one was mailed out). Wish they lasted longer but given the crap that most companies make these days this is a top performer for under $120. The swap out is easy as the unit seats with a mechanism that raises it up and compresses the seals with a quarter turn using an oversized included alan wrench. RECOMMENDED

Did a kitchen refresh after 20 some years. This included a new countertop. Well, if you get a new countertop, you get a new sink. A new sink, a new garbage disposal. The original disposal was still working but very noisy and shook everything on the counter. It went with the old countertop, so I did not have to remove it. That made the job more tolerable. Who likes crawling under a kitchen sink at 70? In-Sink-Erators always seemed to be a good brand and the price seemed decent enough. 1/2H replacing a 1/2H. Package came with all of the parts necessary to install the garbage disposal. However, keep in mind that if you are attaching a dishwasher to it, you may need to get an additional adapter to attach the drain line to the garbage disposal. You may also need to get the proper wire connector to attach the electric line to it. Check these two things out before you get started and it will save you some frustration.Installation is straight forward. Just read the instructions and follow them. I did just what the instruction said to do and how. There were no leaks, runs or errors. I would suggest taking some thought to how it is to hook up to the drain line. Make sure you have it turned to a position that will line up with how you want to attach the drain line. You will need to attach connector part to the sink so as to allow you to attach the GD to it in a way (position) that will line it up properly once the GD is turned into place. The somewhat difficult part for me was getting the electric line attached. Just awkward working under the sink in a tight spot.Once attached and the plumbing done, it was now time to try it out. Wow, what a difference. Smooth and just a hum. No rumbling and shaking. Works as expected. I had to get my wife to come in and listen to it. No longer will she have to catch things vibrating off the countertop. Score one for me!

Desde hace años buscaba poner un triturador en casa, y finalmente lo pude hacer. Me había tardado dado que los que había visto estaban demasiado caros. Éste no costó demasiado y funciona a la perfección. Definitivamente yo no diría que es fácil de instalar, porque no tengo idea, pero alguien que sabe seguro lo hace con rapidez.
