InSinkErator BADGER5, Continuous-Feed Garbage Disposal without Cord, Waterborne Gray Enamel, 1/2 HP Reviews

4.1 Rating 590 Reviews
Easy replacement because of InSinkErator fitting already installed in sink. Old one seized up in basket, but motor still tries to turn. Twenty years of use and abuse, with luck this will last, too. Came with pre-installed power cord, sink drain fitting, new pipe gasket and hardware. DON'T FORGET THE KNOCKOUT PLUG, if you're attaching a dishwasher drain hose.

Good price, good brand. Replaced my Evergrind (by Insinkerator) which failed after almost 20 years. Easy to install, perfect fit.

Very easy to install especially if your current "sink trim ring" is in presentable condition. My trim ring was okay but its rubber skirt was a mess. Good news is that a new skirt is provided with the unit and it does not requite removal of the trim ring to install the new one.I wish it was a little quieter. My sink is composite (inherently quieter) so I expected a little better. A stainless sink will likely be a bit noisier yet. Just a comment. Doesn't invalidate the overall goodness of the unit.

First time replaced the disposer by myself, still spend an hour finishing the installation after watching the youtube video. It's very good, the noise is lower than the old one.

If you own your home...you should do better than this. This is good for landlords installing in rental units. It does what it is supposed to do but don't expect it to last because it will start rusting and leaking within 3 years.

So far so good. Our last one broke within a year, hopefully this can last for sometime.

Please include in your instruction to cut the whole for dishwasher connection... It took me two days to figure out and I though the dishwasher gone bad, when it stopped draining the water.Overall good product.
