InSinkErator Evolution Series Disposers
Evolution Series Disposers feature patented MultiGrind and SoundSeal technologies, which means they grind more with less noise. The Evolution Excel Food Waste Disposer is the ultimate in performance--the top-of-the line Evolution Series product. It's perfect for those who enjoy the very best kitchen appliances, because it cuts noise levels by at least 60% over standard disposers and features three-stage grind technology that lets you grind almost any food waste, including celery, potato peels, chicken bones, and more.

Evolution Technology: Grind More, Hear Less
For the past eight decades, InSinkErator has built more than 100 million food waste disposers. Now the company has put everything it has learned into a line of disposers that sets dramatic new standards for performance. Evolution Series disposers feature innovative technologies--MultiGrind and SoundSeal--that address users' two most common requests: improved grinding ability and reduced noise.

Liquify Waste with MultiGrind Plus Technology With the Excel's MultiGrind Plus feature, you can stop worrying about what food you put in your disposer. This three-stage technology combines a GrindShear Ring, Tri-Action Lug system, and Undercutter Disk, so you can grind almost any food waste. It also includes a Jam-Sensor circuit that automatically increases torque to break through jams. With the Evolution Excel, chicken bones, celery, corncobs, fruit rinds, coffee grounds, and more are virtually liquefied to safely flow into your sewage system. You'll enjoy a cleaner food preparation area and less bagged garbage cluttering your home. 60% Less Noise with SoundSeal Plus Technology SoundSeal Plus Technology utilizes an Anti-Vibration Mount, an Anti-Vibration Tailpipe Mount, and Quiet Collar Sink Baffle, so you can hold a conversation with elevated voices while the disposer is running. This technology also includes SoundLimiter insulation to reduce noise levels by up to 60% compared to standard disposers.

'Evolutionary' Disposer is Easy to Install
Designed with a 1.0-horsepower Dura-Drive Induction Motor, the Evolution Excel is truly 'evolutionary'--giving you the most horsepower of any food waste disposer on the market. An added bonus, the Evolution Excel's 40-ounce stainless steel grind chamber and grind component is built to handle more volume than other disposers.

The Evolution Excel food waste disposer is constructed with a stainless steel Quick Lock sink mount for easy installation. All InSinkErator food waste disposers are built with this feature, making replacement of older units a breeze--simply disconnect and replace your old disposer using the same sink mount.

Wallet-Friendly Choice
The Evolution Excel food waste disposer is a practical and environmentally responsible way to 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 Evolution Excel 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 ahousehold's total water consumption. In fact, the Evolution Excel 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 Evolution Excel is backed by an exclusive seven-year We Come to You In-Home Service Warranty. This warranty from InSinkErator includes free house calls (including parts and labor) for the entire warranty period.

Length:: 2:03 Mins

After some time without a working disposal and years of cheap disposals, I finally treated my parents with A REAL GARBAGE DISPOSAL. I cannot speak on the long term durability of it because I just got it working yesterday but so far I am very impressed. When the electrician installed it, he had to double check that it was on and working because it is so quiet! You will see in the video; pretty much all you can hear is the water running.

I actually did two videos, this one was first and then about 30 min later I did another longer video with LOTS more stuff (smoked sausage w/ skins, grapes, yogurt and rock hard pork chops). I did this video because I had not found any online that show it doing what it claims so here you go! I ground two chicken thighs (bones included) to test their claims. Trust Me; they ARE NOT LYING!!

I will admit that after round II, I was running it while washing my hands and it turned off automatically. I was horrified! Turns out, it is smart enough to shut-off when it has overheated instead of simply burning up. The motor was too hot to touch (for more than 2 seconds) so I put ice-cubes down the sink and ran cold water. It sat for an hour or so and then I simply pushed the reset button and it was back to normal! With the 7 year warranty, I was comfortable testing their claims and I am happy. Well worth my money! The electrician, my mom and dad were all in disbelief when they saw this in action.

This was my first disposal purchase and installation so I wondered if I needed extra parts ... turns out I only needed the plumber's putty and screwdrivers, so I returned the extra parts I bought at Lowe's. Final warning ... the unit is about 23-25 pounds and was a BEAR for me to maneuver under the sink and onto the clips, ALONE! That was the hardest part for me.

Hope that was helpful! Enjoy!!

The Insinkerator Evolution Excel is simply the best!!!! This year for Thanksgiving, a guest was helping in the kitchen and put a large amount of potato peels down the disposer. I was concerned because not only was the disposer jammed full of potato peels, but there were a bunch of peels in the sink waiting to be stuffed into the disposer. (This has happened with our old disposer and I got the privilege of trying to unclog a clogged sink - not a fun thing to do with a house full of company). I watched her turn on the disposer and to my amazement they were all disposed of without a jam. At this point the Evolution Excel was worth every penny I paid for it. My only complaint about this disposer is that is almost too quiet. When you turn it on, you can barely hear it run. I have to remind myself to insure it has been turned off because you get a quiet hum when it is running, not like the old disposer that was LOUD. This is great if you have a sleeping baby, etc where you don't want to wake up the neighbors when you run the disposer.

When I got this, I never put one in before. The instruction for installation where easy to use. its much bigger then the old one i had. so a few modifications where needed. When I finished, I had to try it out. Dropped a potato in and it was gone instantly. so quiet too.
