I considered buying one of InSinkErator's newer, quieter models. I opted for this one for several reasons: (1) Identical plumb-in dimensions to my existing model that finally broke after 14+ years (newer models are nearly identical, but not exact and I didn't have room or patience to re-do the P-trap if needed), (2) this is a full 1-HP with stainless steel grinder components, but for a much lower price than the high-end model, (3) I didn't need to pay for a "pretty" unit—once you install it, you never look at it again, and (4) most of the noise can be eliminated with a $5 plastic strainer, which I use to keep flatware out of the drain when washing up.The way the newer units eliminate much of the noise is to use a rubber splash guard designed to create a "water dam" to isolate the grinding chamber. Indeed, this is effective, but it causes what I call "floaties." It makes it more difficult to get food waste into the grinding chamber. I prefer to shove everything down there at once, put the strainer in place, and grind away. 5 maybe 10 seconds later, I'm done. A slightly louder unit is not a problem.By the way, one of my new hobbies is testing the unit's limits. I put just about anything I can down the drain. The only exceptions so far are: (1) egg shells, no point and can stick to plumbing, (2) onion skins, too thin to grind, (3) mango pit, it was ground down, but not all the way, (4) corn husks, just made a tangled mess, (5) banana peels, tangled mess, and (6) avocado skins, I guess it was like trying to grind leather. Meat scraps, poultry bones, citrus peels, and corn cobs are all game. It's enormously satisfying.If you're replacing an existing InSinkErator and using the existing installation hardware, do what I did: Use a spare scissor jack to lower the old unit and raise the new one into place. Makes installation a breeze.

My old 1 hp badger was 12 years old. I replaced it with this 1 hp and installation was so easy! It works great. Very pleased with this purchase and pricing was better than expected. I would recommend this product.

El producto muy bueno pero le faltaba el adaptador para activar el botón de encendido y el cable de conexión y eso no lo especifican en ninguna parte!

This is the top of the line Badger model with stainless steel parts in the grind chamber (verified), so this is quite possibly the last one we'll need. Originally, we installed the Badger 5 (the 1/2 HP model) and its grind plate failed two years after the warranty expired. The second one, a Badger 5XP (the 3/4 HP model), lasted for nearly 7 years (4 years after the warranty expired) - the grinding plate started to rust through, letting large food particles through, potentially clogging the drain. This one (Badger 1 HP) comes with a 7 year warranty, has stainless steel components in the grind chamber (the grind plate appears to be stainless steel), so I expect it will last for 12 or more years. From reading reviews, many folk seem to be disappointed when their disposer needs replacing at all, as if it will last forever. In my experience, they are like most appliances, they do their job for longer than the warranty, but they do wear out eventually. We are not disappointed that we've had to buy three disposers so far, it's not like they are very expensive, and they do a great job at reducing the compost waste we have to deal with. I put mine through a lot by putting cooked bones through it with regularity. It's actually a surprise to me that they last as long as they do. :)Highly recommended product and brand. And, Amazon's prices are the lowest you will find for this item. :D

es la primera vez que tengo un triturador y estoy contento con el mismo. La instalación la hizo un plomero que siempre llamo para reparaciones generales en casa . El único tema es que los primeros días estuvo trabajando de forma silenciosa pero a la semana noté un ruido raro (como golpeteo), entonces revisé y encontré un arillo metálico como de 3 cms de diámetro suelto. Lo retiré y el equipo sigue trabajando pero ya no silenciosamente como los primeros días.
