Evolution Series® Disposers
If you prefer a higher level of grind performance, and significantly quieter operation, check out the Evolution Series® Disposers.

Evolution Series® disposers feature innovative technologies--MultiGrind® and SoundSeal®--that address users' two most common requests: improved grinding ability and reduced noise.






Easy to Install!
The InSinkErator® Badger® 5 is designed with space efficiency and easy installation in mind.

Odds are that your old disposer has a Quick Lock® sink mount. This makesreplacement as simple as removing the old disposer with a twist and installingthe new one.



, Wallet-Friendly Choice
The InSinkErator® Badger® food waste disposer is a practical and environmentally responsible wayto help reduce the 31 million tons of solid waste generated from food scraps in the U.S. each year.

Instead of throwing this food waste away, grinding it with the InSinkErator® Badger® sends it to your local municipal wastewater treatment plant, where it can be recycled to produce methane, a renewable source of power for the plant. Additionally, wastewater treatment plants can process food waste into biosolids to be used as fertilizer (check the plant in your area).

Food waste disposers average less than 50 cents a year in electricity to operate and account for less than one percent of a household's total water consumption. In fact, the InSinkErator® Badger® features an average water usage of one gallon per person per day and an average electrical usage of three to four kilowatt hours per year, making it among the least expensive installed kitchen appliances.





We Come To You® Parts and Labor Warranty
The Badger® 5 is backed by an exclusive two-year We Come to You® In-Home Service Warranty.This warranty from InSinkErator® includes free house calls (including parts and labor) for the entirewarranty period.


What's in the Box
InSinkErator® Badger® 5 Food Waste Disposer, Quick Lock® Sink Mount, Sink Baffle, Jam-Buster Wrench, Plastic Sink Stopper, and Installation Instructions.

3.0 out of 5 stars Possible defect?, October 30, 2007
By 
Paul (California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: InSinkErator Badger 5 1/2 HP Food Waste Disposer (Tools & Home Improvement)
I installed my Badger 5 two years ago. I'm a single homeowner so it was used lightly. After grinding some onion scraps I noticed a leak under the sink. After careful inspection I noticed the disposal developed a crack in the housing unit. A quick call to InSinkErator revealed the unit was still under warrantee. I had a repair person out the following day who replaced the entire disposal with a Badger 5XP (he said they've stopped making the Badger 5). The problem was resolved quickly and to my satisfaction. My only concern with this unit is how or why it developed the crack with such light usage.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good product for a reasonable price, May 14, 2007

This review is from: InSinkErator Badger 5 1/2 HP Food Waste Disposer (Tools & Home Improvement)
We replaced our 10-year old disposer with the Badger 5. It was easy to install and works just fine. I don't know if there could be anything better on the more expensive ones. One thing to notice is that it does not come with a wired-in power cord. So you have to get a cord with a plug and connect it to the unit (I used the one from the old disposer). It is easy to do; just like wiring a light fixture in.

1.0 out of 5 stars Poor quality, February 13, 2008
By 
This review is from: InSinkErator Badger 5 1/2 HP Food Waste Disposer (Tools & Home Improvement)
We have just had our 3 year old unit fail completely in the same way Paul did.

The plastic housing is cracking. Of course this is not something that can be fixed by replacing a washer or something simple.

When I phoned their customer service, I was told that as it was out of the 2 year warranty, they were not interested. While I can understand this for minor problems, it is pretty bad when the unit is completely worthless such a small time after installation.

Emerson products might have been good 20 years ago, but they sure aren't now.

Unless you like doing plumbing repairs, steer clear.
