InSinkErator Garbage Disposal with Power Cord, Badger 5, Standard Series, 1/2 HP Continuous Feed, Black

Last disposal died (seized motor) after 5 years. Fortunately InSinkErator makes these things super easy to swap out. Seriously - the whole thing took me a couple of hours to take the old one out and install the new one (they were the same model.) Unplug, disconnect the pipe and twist - its off. While annoying that it only lasted 5 years with daily (sometimes twice, thrice or more daily) use, I dont expect much else for a $100 disposal. Thanks, InSinkErator, for making it easy to replace.

The disposal itself was fine except the cord was severed off The plumber that we had install it had to fix the cord

great product easy to install

The majority of negative comments written before my review are accurate in my experience. This was my fourth unit replacement in the last twelve years or so. On average, the two prior to this most recent purchase lasted three years. HOWEVER, if you’re just swapping out units it’s a relatively easy 20-30 minute job. My point is, buy it at a good price if you can. Know it’s going to be relatively easy to swap out. But accept that in all likelihood it’s probably going to fail in 2-3 years. Personally, if I thought that spending more would render a different outcome, I’d spring for the extra money. However, few things are built to last any more. Sad turn of events. Buy quality American-made goods wherever you can find them. Know that you may pay a few dollars more. But it employs American workers, which strengthens our country and the money stay home folks. Win win in my book.

Easy instal for home

Easy to install & works great

Direct replacement for the disposal I had.

Like everyone said, surprisingly easy to install. I wish things in life broke in order of difficulty to fix. This is a great primer lesson to home repair.

Replaced an Insinkerator 444 with this Badger 5. All went well. Everything I needed was in the box. Took me 15 minutes.
