5.0 out of 5 stars 1HP Wasteking disposal, July 1, 2009

By	E. Cohen (Occupied territory of Maine) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Quiet and fast. Has stopper that really works. Small bin makes accidents less likely, and I have not dropped any tableware in yet.
One thing that you must do. Before turning the lock ring in the final step of installation, don't forget to soap up the rubber gasket. If you don't, you will be sorry. It is not an option as implied by the instructions.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nice, great price, May 18, 2009

By	J. Shu (USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Nice disposal, much quieter than our old GE 3/4 HP. Took about 10 minutes to install in our stainless sink.

The sink ring is a slightly cheap looking stainless, but other than that, it's a high quality disposal. Got the 1hp version for the lifetime warranty, but I'll probably never need to use it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Grinds it up, July 24, 2009

I have been using this product for almost 6 months now and it is great. After installation, I have taken its flawless performance for granted. It was substantially larger than the small wimpy disposal that came with our house, but also surprisingly quieter; more like the guttural growl of a menacing bulldog than a loud but harmless chihuahua.

A couple of pieces of advice - make sure it will fit under your sink (it barely fit under mine), and create an outlet to plug it into instead of trying to directly wire it since it comes with a plug you would have to otherwise cut out.
