– Easy to Install, Works Perfectly!
I was a little nervous about installing a garbage disposal myself, but this Insinkerator made the whole process surprisingly simple. The instructions were clear, and everything fit exactly as described. I was able to remove my old unit and have this one up and running in less than an hour with just basic tools. Once installed, it worked flawlessly—quiet, powerful, and it grinds food waste smoothly without any issues. The compact design also freed up a bit of space under my sink, which I really appreciate. Overall, I’m impressed with both the quality of the product and the ease of installation. If you’re on the fence about doing it yourself, I’d say go for it—this Insinkerator makes it very doable. Highly recommended!

Buy the same one, 20 years later? YES!
Our original Badger InSinkErator ate itself apart after about 20 years of use. What to do? Buy the exact same one (updated and improved, of course) because it fit perfectly with no plumbing needed and very little effort. Good on ya, InSinkErator for keeping a good product going and making it easy for owners to fix things themsleves, it was easy to remove, install and now the new one is much quieter!

Excellent Disposal
I purchased this product because my old,(10 years or older) disposal shorted out. It was a "like for like" purchase. Which means, it was the same brand but I opted for higher horsepower. To my delight, the in sink existing hardware matched the new model. It took less than half an hour to install without the high cost of a plumber. It works great and will probably last 10 or more years! Great product, great purchase that contributes positively to environmental health by diverting food waste from landfills, reducing methane emissions (a potent greenhouse gas), and supporting energy recovery at wastewater treatment facilities. Highly recommended!

This is a product that needs to arrive in a timely manner.
After it finally arrived, installation was easy. Seems to be working fine.

Best Buy!
Great price for the 1/2 hp model. This is my second one as the first one purchased in 2018 was damaged by metal debris. The old one was easily removed in less than five minutes including time to gather tools! Quick and easy to install. Quiet and no leaks. Perfect size, smells good and not that heavy.

Works gud
So far it is holding up well! Just as quiet as the 1/3 HP unit of the same brand that it replaced. The replacement process took about 10 mins. The cord is hardwired, which is a plus. Just.. works!

Works well
Bought it when my old one broke. Great to just have it delivered to my door without having to go to the store. Easy to replace. It's a standard size and works perfectly. I live in an old building in town and it doesn't make too much noise for the neighbors. Haven't noticed any smell. Has good power.
